Are they twins, Muddle? We just came back from Dance Lesson #9. She was quite peeved during the class because I suggested that she was doing the Waltz instead of the Foxtrot. We discussed the difference and I said I would ask the teacher to find out which was which cuz it was confusing me. Teacher said I was correct. W was not impressed. "So, what is your point in telling me this? We get to the same point in the room either way". She felt I was CRITICIZING her when all I was doing was clarifying the correct dance steps. It's funny she can criticize the sh!t out of me on the floor but when I bring up (nicely) that maybe she is doing something incorrect, well look out! I just stated that I was clarifying the dance steps for myself and sharing that info with her, that was it. I really felt like saying "F*** off" but held that one back. Again it's kind of a microcosm of our R, any time I "criticize" her by correcting any minor thing she gets all huffy. So I just pushed on and did my best tonite. No brain freeze at least. W has agreed to continue lessons in the new year so that's good news (or is it? )
