Uh Oh!!! Are you offering to perhaps, maybe, possible, help coach me some through this rebuilding EC process. OK, OK, OK, if you twist my arm, I'll grudgingly accept. But don't try to back out on our agreement now.
Thanks a bunch for the suggestion. As I stated in reply to HP, this is what I like, this is what I can work with. Concrete plans of action. Put your money where your mouth is and all that.
I'm not saying I am now expecting your suggestion to be a silver bullet or anything, but it gives me something to try and then either modify if necessary or move on to a different "tactic." What I also like is that it is not a ploy of any kind. I am not trying to secretly get her to do something. Thanks again.
"One other thing. Since you are tall, and you are obviously kowtowing to your wife, I am assuming that you are doing that physically as well. Make sure that you always hold your head up, stand tall, and don't slump in order to make yourself appear shorter, or less intimidating. That is very common behavior for tall people."
Well, I mostly bend over a lot to avoid bonking my head on things. Ok, ok, stop with the excuses Chrom! You are right, I do tend to slump a lot and will slink around a bit to avoid notice since it comes so easily. I have people all the time tell me that they didn't realize how tall I was until they got right next to me. Hmmm. Light bulb.
