Re: HD after a day (Sunday) spent going to her favorite house of worship, mowing the lawn, cleaning off the deck, making her dinner, cleaning the kitchen, and basically not sitting down until after dinner was over. It’s like she has this idea in her head that men are lazy slobs and I must be a lazy slob because I’m a man. HairDog. You have me beat. I do most of the things on your list but not all in one day. I am seeing the more you do, the less you are appreciated.
So here’s why I’m angry, in diminishing order of anger: I’m angry because she thinks I aspire to be (and apparently already am) a lazy slob. I’m disturbed that she thinks she “knows” why I liked this movie. And I’m mildly annoyed, but not surprised, that she spoke of the Focker’s sexual relationship with disdain.
The (she thinks she “knows”) A, B, and C better than I know A, B, or C is a big one for me to deal with. I don't know what to say to change her mind, so I quit trying to convince BB of anything and started saying, if she knew better than me, she should join Miss Cleo Psychic Reading hot line because that work was a lot easier than being a nurse. (Sorry another analogy that did not work)
Explaining what you mean or intend more than once does not work so don't go there. Like the book said, she heard you the first time many years ago. I guess small up dates are good to give out.
I aspire to be (and apparently already am) a lazy slob. Anyone not as neat as her is a slob. BTDT. BTW some clutter does not bother me aslong as the clutter does not smell or have medical hazards.
And yes, being a man sounds like you can never be perfect, so don't try. Most men are pigs/cheaters/drunks. Just watch the cheating/drunk husband type movies on the Lifetime Network. I quit watching the network and life got better.
Would your W like Sally Field in "Not Without my child" That is about men and their religious beliefs that leads to men controling most of family life. I bet that movie will reinforce her belief that women need more power in the world.
I thought it was a good movie and did show that in some cultures men do have too much power in society. But not to ther point that says all men are pigs or domeneering and women need to take over the world.
