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

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!!

update...

we both stayed very busy at work today. I had to go handle a crisis with my company and he was meeting with subs all day. So we stayed busy. He did send me a msg asking if I could have lunch with him. I just smiled when I got that. But unfortunately, I was 1.5 hours away from him and couldn't get back any time soon. So I asked for a rain check and he said OK. so...we will make it up tomorrow. The rest of the day was kinda quiet but when I got home, I saw he was online and asked when he would be home and what he would like for dinner. This made his day because he is the one that usually cooks in the house. I told him I intended on going to the grocery store and would be picking up a few things for dinner and asked what he preferred..chicken or beef. So...he was excited to get home to a cooked meal

He got home and I could tell he still had a headache. he had indicated earlier that he didn't feel good. So he went and laid down in the bedroom. I went in and laid with him, kissed his forehead and asked if I could get him anything. He said he just got all he needed

so we laid there for a minute until i had to get up to check on dinner. Well, after dinner, we laid back down and just talked about nothing. it was very nice. i laid my head on his chest and suddenly we were back to when we were dating. We both commented on how nice it was.

so we realized at that moment, that one of the things we are lacking most is affection. We work very closely together with our companies involved with each other so our relationship has turned very "business-like". We realized tonight that we really need to put the passion back into our marriage. even if all it means is that we lay on the couch together and make jokes. Holding hands while walking through the grocery store.

When we first got married, we used to have this game we would play. We had each day of the week put on a slip of paper. We put them all into a bowl. Each week, we would both draw a day out of the bowl. We would keep it secret. Well,. whatever day we drew, we did something special for the other person on that day. it was so fun. it got kinda hard after a while cuz we ran out of ideas we would start repeating ourselves over and over again. But it was fun. it was exciting. We need to do stuff like that again.

Our 1 year anniversary is May 7. I am hoping that on that day, we can look at each other and say that this is only a second in time for us compared to the long life we have ahead of us. I think we just need to do things to keep it alive.

look at the sticky note that he left on my computer a few months ago...

Let's make sure that before today is over we take one step closer to being stronger together until we last forever.
Love
-JIM-

yeah, he is a doll.
