Hubby is like that too... he has the hardest time understanding me... he will at times argue a point til he is blue in the face only to realize I agree with him and he just didn't GET IT.... awww... I could smack him sometimes.... lol

My hubby understand me....I have a hard time understanding him. He drives me nuts!!!! He tries to use big words that he doesn't even know the meaning of and doesn't make sense to what he is talking about. Not sure who he is trying to impress, but it's not impressing me at all. Makes me think he's nutso!

Men are just weird, that's about the only way I can explain them. I just ignore him and hope he sleeps on the couch...LOL

I feel very forunate. I do not have this problem. My DH and I are in a place in our marriage that is great. We each feel comfortable with each other and the decisions that we make and do not worry if one has to make a decision without the other. Usually they are right on target.

On the flip side, at my full time job we have done some personality profiling. So, I had both of us done. We each discovered our strengths and weaknesses. They wrote a book on this called "discover your strength" which we read as well.

I know when its best to go with his strength and he know when its mine. At the same time, I know when he works himself into a conflict (drive vs detail) and I need to guide him to make the decision and be ok with it. We also compliment each other with things that he is strong at and things that I am strong at and we give each other the room to feel like we are partners.

Uh oh! Are you going to have to buy a new keyboard again? Lol!

I feel pretty lucky. My husband does a very good job of understanding me and in the times when he doesn't, he tries very hard until he does. I hope you and your hubby can reach a similar place in your marriage Toodles. It will be worth it in the end.

Mine understands me, like I said earlier...his hearing must be going, cause he doesn't always hear what I'm saying, I think. I'll be saying something and he'll have this "deer in the headlights" look on his face. I'll tell him, "you don't even have a clue do ya" and he'll say, yes and then answer something way off topic. Duh!!! It'd be like me saying "Hi how was your day" and he'll say "I've thought about it" and I'll say, "thought about what" and then he'll say.. "what?"

I might as well talk to the wall! One other thing...aaww oh here I go....he does is tell me the same thing one hundred times. He'll start telling me something and I'll tell him I know, he already told me. Next day...same thing. I've thought about hiding one of those small recorders on me and when he starts in on the same thing again, pull it out and hit PLAY!!!

Janet at least your husband tells you things. My husband tells everyone else and THEN when I say that I haven't heard about it, he lets me know that he DID tell me. I listen to everything he says and I know when he told me something and when he did NOT tell me something!!
