I have to hand it to you, Cobra, your reponse darn near yanked me out of 'girly,' mode and I ALMOST went and got my 2 x 4.
I actually quite relieved you didn’t pull out that 2x4 since such a reaction would have been on the heels of a far too easy effort on my part. So good thing, I may have had to notch down my respect for you. But just to reassure you, you know I love it when you call me “sweetie!”
So I'll just say... you missed it. There are ways to go about what you are doing in a far kinder, gentler way.... if you lose the 'tude and such almighty LOW expectations of your wife.
Ok, so I haven’t quite elevated myself to the level of Corri enlightenment, but I’m working towards it. So to put me on the right path, give me a specific of how you think a kinder, gentler approach should be handled concerning some of the issues I mentioned.
Sometimes the amazing disdain you hold for her takes my breath. I'm not sure if you intend that, but it sure is how it comes across.
Yup. She senses this as much as I sense her disdain for me. It comes and goes like everything else in a relationship.
