I'm reading love and respect. wow!

I corrected/backpedaled yesterday and I got a good response! He could tell I had respect for him.

Details:
I was upset he hasn't installed the ac in the window. My mom has been bugging me about it. I seriously don't mind the heat! But there I go telling H to do it because I don't want my mom on my back anymore.

He said he'll pay someone to do it. I get more upset because we don't have money to pay someone. Conversation ends sour.

Backpedaling-
I told H that I know that if he had more money he would pay someone to install fans in every room along with ac's. I also know that he is not a handyman and that's ok! He has paid someone to do more important repairs in our house than when it was my parents home. (i.e.he had the foundation, garage, and backyard fixed) And, I let him know I really don't mind the heat and that it was more pressure I was getting from my mom.

And with that he left my house beaming ;-)

This is what I got out of reading a few chapters from the book.
