Just a rant

Curtis, that must have been rough.

I have a girl friend, who says the same thing about her husband.
The trust has gone out of the relationship. And we all know
what happens when the trust is gone.

chksng19,

Excellent advice. Our pastor gave us similar rules
for our "disputes" and we still follow them today.
* No fighting in the bedroom.
* No going to bed angry. (Sleeping on the couch is out!)
* Kiss and make up before you go to sleep.

It's led to some very late nights, but has been a marriage saver.

The 48-hour rule was born, because sometimes my husband
gets upset about something, but doesn't know if he wants to
talk about it or if its worth getting upset over. If he's still
frustrated the next day, then we chat about it.
If not, he lets it go.

I have a different problem, I like to bring up everything, all at
once and bombard the man. No holding back. Perhaps, its that
Scorpio thing. LOL. That's why I have to work on the "one-topic-at-a-time".

Thanks again duktig flicka for starting this thread.
This sparked a great discussion with my husband
and reminded me of my 'naughty' ways.

Happy Halloween to all!

So going to bed filled with anxiety about what you might have done wrong is acceptable?

Thank you so much, Ruby. It was so terribly kind of you. I hope you keep posting!

Going to bed filled with anxiety doesn't work for me.
It's my hubby who can do that.

I have a limit of about 3 hours, then I have to know
what's up, what's what and what's going on. Everything.
Then I start grilling him about stuff he probably doesn't know about
or don't give him enough time to think about what I'm saying
cause I'm pushing for immediate gratification.

Oh, wait...yes, that's what gets "me" in trouble. Darn.

See, now that's the bad kind of trouble to be in.
