Sandi...so here is what I want, actually would LOVE to know. And apologies in advance for the hijack equalzr. Can you explain/describe how a loving, well meaning, sometimes unknowing husband would proactively address these displays of disrespect? Call her out, walk away, silent treatment, etc? As I've said before in one post you stated men aren't good at understanding a rational woman so we have even less chance understanding a WW. Let's assume we men also don't then "catch" all of the ways W's disrespect us. As you say what W would want her H to become mean, controlling, jealous, etc...so between being a complete jerk and a complete pushover, perhaps from a woman's perspective you can provide us some insight into how we could most effectively handle some of that disrespectfulness so maybe we can prevent ourselves from coming back here in future relationships due to the same causes.

And if what I'm asking makes no sense, please accept my apologies in advance. I'm truly trying to learn effective skills for managing scenarios as you describe.
