I had a man call me one time and apologized to me for my wife backing into his truck.

I like the starter wife saying. I’m saying that for the right time.

Agreed, second time around. Looks and lovin' don't last. Cookin', personality and good conversation does. I do get cussed out for what she thinks I'm thinking from time to time though which doesn't seem fair.

Mine happens regularly - my wife leaves food on the stove unattended. Twice since she almost burned the house down a few weeks back. I can see something simmering and I accept that but not when frying or sauté something.
The other is her cutting hotdog or brat buns all the way through as if they were hamburger buns. Even "pre sliced" buns. That makes it difficult to add any condiments.

Back when I was working, my wife said see wanted to see the doctor as something wasn't quite right. Now I worked rotating shifts so she had to see the doc without me coming along. I got home to find the wife crying and I'm thinking the worst. She kept crying and telling me I was gonna get mad and and I kept telling her I wouldn't. Finally she calmed down enough and said, "The doctor said there is nothing wrong with me. I'm just slightly pregnant." I told her, "I was not angry and don't worry about it. We'll find the space." You see, when I married her, she'd already had three kids from a previous marriage. Guess she forgot what being pregnant felt like. Anyway after a long wait she gave birth to a baby girl. Damn! I can't believe that was over 50 years ago. Time does fly.

I can’t tell navy pants from black. My wife, being irritated with this, decided to mark them for me. Great!
One day, I got a pair out, looked, and saw the marking “BL” on the tag. WTF??!!?? BLue? BLack? I go out another pair…same thing! And another, and another!!!
LOL! She wasn’t sure either, but she DID mark them for me, bless her heart!

My wife left her missionary family overseas at age 17 to attend the Univ of WA.
She bought a car. She had never seen anyone work on a car, but she replaced her overhead camshaft.
Last week [49 years later] we replaced the garbage disposal under the sink. We took turns working. My hand strength is better.

When my wife and I were dating, I took her out groundhog hunting. I missed a groundhog and she found it very amusing. She laughed like you would at a toddler who fell down. Later a fox came out in the same field. I did not miss the fox. She did not know I was going to shoot it and lost her mind. I was unapologetic and told her to get over it. She did...but it was not a pleasant evening.

My wife pulled the trigger on a rifle once in her life. 17Remington, and hit the prairie dog.
