Codes for Reducing Wife's Intensity, Changing Subjects
Posted: Tue Jan 09, 2007 5:47 pm
Today, my wife was too intense about the fat content in foods, as I had 5 minutes to get out the door, and drive to work.
I need a code to hafve her agree to reduce her intensity. Not that she might not have been right, just that I did not have the tiem for an intense discussion.
I asked my wife to change the subject, by puttign my inger to my lips, signaling for her to be quiet. It worked to soem extnet, but not as smoothly or quicly, as would be ideal.
I had the code word RED as an agreement for when she was telling jokes that I felt were too personal for my sensitivities.
My wife is usally open to discuss codes. I just need to do it in advance of the awkward situation.
