don't really know how to talk to wife

[missk]

I think spouses should all take turns to act dumb… Play to your strength and if you know you are weak in something, it won’t hurt to maybe let someone else be the smart one? Both of us can drive and navigate but only one will do it. Going the wrong way never hurt anyone in Singapore right? Both of us can do housework but we split the chores such that it does not overlap (less chance of conflict) and don’t criticize unless something really serious comes up ( like the time my hb sterilized unwashed milk bottles and I found out!!)



The only exception should be parenting, where both parents are needed to play an active. Sometimes that is the cause of friction for us but we work on it. Usually it never hurts to listen to the other person’s suggestions but the one who spends more time with child should be the one making more decisions.

I think the book “The 5 Love Languages” by Gary Chapman may help. Read it together with your wife and practise the strategies as described in the book.

Hahaha... But sometimes you should! Some years back a man drove into a river following such maps in Germany. Here are others.

ah....so u haven't figure out yet.


When hubbies ask for opinion, we are basically seeking reaffirmation of our decisions. Just like wives asking 'am I fat?'....there is only one answer :siam:

You want to die is it? :siao:
Give our brader this kind of direct answer? :rant:

GEP daddy no less.. got IQ but need to work on EQ? :siam:

But lemme get back here again once i'm done poking the bird. :pokeeye:

I think it is human nature to choose to hear what we would like to hear.

Aiya,if the wife does not wanna hear a honest answer(yes,u r fat),just make sure u don't give him the chance to tell u that u r fat...How?.... Either u don't ask or simply stay as slim as possible.

I've been dealing my sensitive DH fr 11yrs. I still learning n trying to improve my communication skills wf him,so I be able to share my ideas or opinion wf him,without hurting his feelings.

For e.g. instead of saying this T-shirt doesn't look good on u,u could say,\"i prefer u wear the other T-shirt,its colour n design fit u nicely n make u look handsome!\"
