Are you always wrong when dealing with your spouse?

The secret, I believe, is consistent attention to communication skills. For instance, I have learned to patiently listen to my wife, whether the emotional level is elevated or normal. At the appropriate moment, I’ll remark “Yes Dear.” That phrase helps maintain the equilibrium. Of course, I have unwittingly agreed to go Black Friday shopping once and to go to the theater to see Mama Mia by answering unconsciously. Still, it has helped more than hurt during our 30 years.

mine is “You sound frustrated”.
>20 years here.

We recently looked at quartz countertops. I chose a style that was mostly white with a few veins of gray tones in it. She chose ind that was 2/3rds veins of color.

She took the samples home and I went back to work. She called me to say after she got home she saw I was right.

So I got that one. In 30 years. Ooh and I convinced her she needed a new dog after our wonderful black lab died. That was 3 years ago. I am on a ROLL if you look at the trend line, logarithmically.

do you want to be right? or do you want to be happy?

go buy her more tacos and be glad someone will put up with you.

just remember, she owns 50% of your stuff and 100% of your pussy.

Don't ever make the mistake of thinking any of that pussy is yours, and if she loans it out, it's for for a reason and you're gonna be paying some kinda user fees.

Right before I got married, my father told me that, whatever I do, to make sure I always get the last 2 words in every argument - "yes dear".

I'd love to know just how many in this thread claiming they are right so much of the time would say that in front of their wives... :bwahaha:

The secret is really very simple. Ya just have to outsmart them. When the wife tells you to go to Taco Bell and get her two soft tacos (but you heard two hard tacos) then just go to Taco Bell and buy two hard and two soft tacos. When you get home and she asks why you got four instead of the two she asked for just simply tell her that you forgot which she wanted so you got two of each and that you will happily eat the two she doesn't want. She will be thankful that you got anything and even more thankful that she won't have to fix your dinner...

:fistbump:
