Thanks for comment Kathie! But reading “I agree with your husband” is tough to take! I guess I hate being the bully and don’t like to “make him” do anything. Sometimes I just wish his actions were less forced…and more thoughtful!

Sorry Jen, I’ve got to agree with your husband. I’m not good at that subtle stuff either. If I want to leave someplace and I want him to go with me then I tell him that. Saying, “No, it’s not fine, I really would like you to go home with me.” saves wear and tear all around.

Unbelievable how similar men are to one another. Different species altogether. I have this same issue all the dang time. Even when I try to be straight forward it STILL doesn’t sink in. I was joking the other day I should make index cards and file them in a box for the significant other so he knows what to do and what to say and not screw it all up…I was joking…but now I am thinking it might not be a bad idea. lol.
