Hi everyone,
We are now 2 weeks into my wife's cycle and 2 weeks to go. The past 2 weeks have been a honeymoon... she was able to brush off all kinds of things which usually irritate her.
But right on schedule, yesterday she slammed me on the way home from a dinner party. My crime? I ate too much of the cake we brought to our friends house for dinner and didn't leave them enough. Fair enough, but this didn't warrent a silent treatment for the remander of the night. I didn't counter with the argument that both our friends are obese and didn't need cake, but I have learned (the hard way) not to counter her arguments with anything logical.
Today she called me at the office just so she could hang up on me. My crime today was that I chewed a few pieces of her gum.
I am working hard controlling my reactions to such incidents and realizing them for what they are. And, as always, trying not to take them personally.
Wish me luck during the next 13 days...
