well, as a "girl" -

i'd say i feel the same way about my h and I - and here i am, dbing, and sufferin succotash rite along with everyone else.

i would construe her comment to mean that she assumes (either consciously or unconsciously) that in future you guys will be interacting enough to work on how to do it- how to argue- how to "make it better" this time, etc. so, i'd think that was positive, no? working on future communications?

just my take on her comment.

otherwise - she's nuts because anyone in their right mind will take help with the dishes and be glad of it. even if it's rin tin tin doing them with his tongue. anyone that's not me- i'll take it. yay...
