Can You Hear Me Now?
I think my husband and I have gotten to that point in our marriage where he has started to not listen to. For example, last night he asked me if I wanted to watch one of the movies we had on DVR, Twin Peaks (I was already in bed and he wanted to watch a movie before bed). I said “Yes, watch Lost and Delirious, I’ve seen it.” He took that as yes watch Twin Peaks. Today, he brought my car to get the oil changed and on the way, he called me to make sure I didn’t crash the new car on my drive home ( I was nervous! But I didn’t crash). He was going out to eat with some work people and I am not feeling well, so I stayed home. I told him I wanted Taco Bell because he was coming home to switch cars. He said “Anything for you baby.” He came home, walked in and sat down to me empty handed. I just stared at him with ”the Stare.” It took him a few minutes to realize why I was not happy. I didn’t think we would get to this point after only 2 years of marriage!
