I'm sorry that we keep dumping on you, but it's clear that you and DW have a massive communication problem, and you need to sort it out. Using language that is less condescending might be a start in improving that communication.


Dean says: I don't mind being dumped on. I'm a 'big boy', I can handle it. 'Tough love' me all any one wants to. I don't do subtle, so keep bringing out the clubs. I can handle it.

But please keep in mind that dear wife is no angel either. " . . . using language that is less condescending might be a start. . . ." AGREED! But, her language is not any worse that mine. I just type more. There is no excuse for either of us. I imagine that certain types of people 'should' never get married. I think her and I are that type of person.
