Dear Happy G,

If you approach your W in the manner hairdog suggests you'll both be doing a lot of reading!

I don't disagree with him. An employee you can treat this bottom line way...but not a wife! Well, you can treat her this way but it sure won't help her to warm up to you.

You should bring it up. Don't just sweep it under the rug. That is always the wrong thing.

Don't be angry about it. Try not to take it personally and realize there are things going in her. I know that's easy to say and much harder to do.

Tell her how it made you feel and ask her what is going on. It is not even good etiquette...HG! It is rude!

I have been there...never read a book though. But just as guilty. If she loves you as I loved my H she is just living in Selfish Land! She's not in the mood and not gonna let herself get in the mood.......she has no clue.

HELP to clue her in! Don't run to your cave and not bring it up.

I like one thing that NOPS said..somewhere...the difference between HD and LD....chemicals! Some of us just have to stir them up while others are always on the run!!!!
