My H (a fellow six) is just like you in this regard HD.
He is quick to assign the blame to himself.
And, as you know, I am never wrong so we make a good pair.
Well, that is a joke but it has been less than funny throughout the course of our marriage. I have had to learn to listen more, and punish less. Learn how to soften my stance and my voice.
I was never a mean or aggressive person but I was certainly NOT the one who would back down in the argument.
We were quite a pair: He was the nitpicking criticizer and I was the explosive punisher. He was quick to criticize and quick to then backpedal and say how wrong he was. It just fueled me even more. I wasn't hearing what he was saying because he said it in such a stupid way--yelling and criticizing--and plus he would ruin all his potential progress by then saying "oh I didn't mean it" just to keep the peace. That and he was just flat out wrong.
Ha haaaaaaaa. That was another joke.
At any rate, I wanted to chime in with Mrs and say that this type of matchup is really rife with crappy possibilities. Glad you are finding a way to lovingly get yourself out of it.
