The strangest thing my wife ever did was marry me. The strangest thing she has done since then is stay married to me. For the life of me I cannot figure out why an intelligent, highly complacent, and overall great person would show such weaknesses.

Me: "Where you want to go eat tonight"? Her: "Oh, anywhere is fine." Me: "Olive Garden?" Her: "Nahhh...Somewhere else." Me: "Red Lobster"? Her: "Ummm...Not tonight" Me: "O.k. How about Applebee's"? Her: "Not really in the mood for that." Me: "OooooooK. Where would YOU like to eat"? Her: "Oh anywhere. I'm not picky".

Setting the bedroom clock 10 minutes fast, and then hitting the snooze button 3 times before getting up.
If I want to get up at 5, set the clock and alarm to go off off at 5. I don't want to do calculus to figure out what time it is. After 40 years, it's starting to drive me crazy.

The major difference between belief and fact is those who believe something have come to a conclusion no facts will contradict. Well informed people are open to new facts that oppose their beliefs. That also defines an open and closed mind.

I'm in the same boat Scott F
and it's a pleasure cruise
yah my wife does stuff that makes me go WTF?
tis why it's good to visit the wild country and spend some time apart on occasion, all those little things just don't matter so much anymore.
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Bang head on steering wheel..... Been there done that...got the tee shirt...and a headache. This. The girl wants her way, but wants it to be my idea. I told her Mom two weeks ago that if I had known how hard headed she was, i would have married her anyway. But I would have started retraining her at an early age. Her Mom totally agreed.

Not just her but her family. Plan a get together and all they want is a weenie roast. We can boil shrimp or crawfish, grill steaks or butts, but No it has to be hotdogs over a fire. Gosh I wish her family was like that! All i can afford is the weenies but they expect steak or chops and give my wife hell if they don't get, the darned freeloaders!

Took me close to thirty years to figure it out, I'm a slow learner. When mine says, "Do you want too__________?" That actually means, "I want too____________."
Unless it is just absolutely revolting I just say, yeah that is just what I'd like to do.
Boy has it cut down on arguments and hurt feelings.

Bang head on steering wheel..... Spot on.. yep.... hate to admit it, but with us the roles are reversed. she will ask me and i can never decide what i want and after going back and forth on it i will usually agree with the first suggestion.
