BUT, BUT, BUT, a very subtly worded comment is a call to action and you're failing as a husband when you didn't put 2 and 2 together, get 258, and make it so.

No way I'm sending this to my wife. I get accused of this all the time. If you don't want me to help solve the problem, don't tell me about them. Men are problems solvers...it's what we do. :biggrin:

Welp! Everything seemed to be fine. She hasn't struck me or anything. She did, however, shatter one of my Spiegelau IPA glasses just a moment ago.

She says it was an accident, but I know better.

Sounds like a scene from The Christmas Story.

Even after 25 years, it's still hard for me to manufacture a look of concern and throw in a few "that must be frustrating" comments.

This is so much like my soon-to-be-ex that it ain't even funny.

I recall a line the fat engineer on "Hello Larry" once gave to McLean Stevenson about understanding women. He said, "Take the most logical answer to any question you can come up with - and then REVERSE it!!!"

And that pretty well sums it up.

Wait, are you saying that after 25 years you're still having to do that crap?

Yikes...

;)
Yep. As you can imagine, emotions can swing more dramatically as your wife approaches a certain age. Mine needs to emote a lot more these days, but of course, I hate problems/issues so I'm conditioned to do what's needed as soon as possible to put them behind me. I hate dwelling on problems/issues.
