31 Jan
My wife and I bought the movie "Fireproof" last night. We had a good time watching the movie. It brought up good discussion between us. I am realizing how my wife and I communicate with one another. We think and process things differently. I realize that I need to communicate more with my wife and let her know what I'm really thinking/feeling. This is very abnormal and uncomfortable for me but I think it will definitely improve our communication.

yeah, it's like, when i ask, what do you want to do tonight? what i'm really saying is: please go to hastings and pick up the movie we've been talking about. but it sounds like i'm just asking you for your opinion. i'm sorry i put you in abnormal and uncomfortable situations, honey, but please know: we've only been married five years; we're still young enough to make mistakes, learn, and grow! some day you and i will say what we mean and feel instead of what we don't mean and don't feel. let's grow old, deaf, and senile together. by then our thoughts and feelings will no longer need to be spoken, as our communication skills gradually transcend even the normal and the comfortable. we won't have to talk at all :)
ReplyDeleteYes, darling- you are so funny. Is it a rule of thumb that men say what they mean, but women don't mean what they say? like you're implying something in the question? This May will be six wonderful years- time has flown by too fast. I feel like we're on our third year still. I remember our time in Korea as if it was last year.
