It can be hard to communicate with someone that doesn't track on your wave length. Beating them about the head and neck usually brings them around.

Once or twice in the 44 years we have been together.
Have not been many fights over the years.

only takes a couple of times to tell them where the door is, once they realize you're not kidding they become more open to talking like adults.

When I say “win” I mean you brought up a problem, you discussed it, faults were admitted and a positive change then ensued. And all without it turning out to be your fault, this is the elusive part for me.
What say you fire?

When she gets pissed at you, just tell her she’s overreacting. She’ll realize you’re right, and she’ll calm right down. Oh yeah...I so want to be there when he tries that approach.

It's been my experience that a wife is good for about 20 years before they go sour.
I'm 21 years into my second one. She gets mouthy every now and then. I don't fight with her, though. I just tell her she's talking stupid again and to let me know when she gets over it.

We don't fight. We have highly spirited disagreements. I have about a 50% success rate.

Peace and justice.....learn the difference .
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Yes, then realized I had actually lost, “You can be right, or you can be married”, she’s way more educated and won’t engage in anything she’s not convinced she can win. When we both realized the strength of the position I was discussing (we don’t argue, ever, we occasionally debate ideas), she didn’t take it well, I being happily married 12 years and wanting to stay the same quickly spun the dialogue to lose, on purpose,
We’ve had very few intellectual debates since, she doesn’t complain I hunt and fish constantly, I don’t try to act smarter than her, seems to be working, I had to get all uppity and try and win one throwing off the balance,
