Ask a man what he did on his last date and he won't remember where they went or what he ate. Ask a woman what she did on her first date, 15 years go, with her now husband, and she can recant what she wore and what she did to get ready.
Likewise, when a man complains about what a woman has done 5 minutes ago, the woman can come back with complaints about what he did 10 mins ago, 2 days ago, a month ago, a decade ago...
Men SAY they don't sweat the small stuff, but the fact the matter is, they CAN'T REMEMBER the stuff, big or small.  |
I was going to say that my hubby would say, without a doubt, that I don't forget stuff....
We both enjoy humor, and he knows that if I even begin to get cranky, all he has to do is make me laugh. That's it. I'm over it!! But then since I giggle all the time anyways, I'm an easy target!! I can honestly say that I can't remember the last time we've had a fight (notice I'm not saying gotten on each others nerves) but it has probably been over 10 yrs ago.
When we first started to live together he put it all into perspective for me...
He had unloaded the diswasher and put the silverware in all the wrong places. (The bin for the silverware had shapes like spoons, forks, knives, etc. so a 4 yr old would know where each went!!) Instead of being glad that he had unloaded the dishwasher, I was fussing because I had to do it all over.
He told me that I should be glad. Before he met me he kept his silverware in an old shoebox....
LaMan-I have a feeling you and my hubby would get along wonderfully!!
PS Did I mention that there are only 2 of us and we have 3 TVs - all in different parts of the house??? Ahhh... that and separate bathrooms - the key to a happy marriage!!
