Fortunately, unlike Mrs. Tex, I have a husband who compliments me every day (even in combat boots). Now that's a man who knows how to make his wife love him.

I know we're all joking around on this one, but out of fairness to myself I believe draino was just kidding around w/ me and presenting what I've said in the past in humorously stark fashion. I never yelled in my wife's face "you're fat and ungly!". Again, context is everything. If you're interested in the full truth, here's the thread in question:http://www.lawschooldiscussion.org/prelaw/index.php/topic,20751.msg297048.html#msg297048
Tex, I had already read the text in question. You turned to your wife on the couch and said, "You're fat and ugly and so am I, but I still love you." That is no way to treat a woman, kidding or not. Did you ask her how it made her feel to hear you say that to her? It probably hurt her, whether she admitted it to you at the time or not. Start a habit of always telling her she's beautiful (never say she's fat, even if you think it), and she will always love you and never resent you. After I had the second kid, I had this extra 15 lbs that took a lot of treadmill time to erase. I'm sure hubby noticed but never said one word. That's one of the reasons I love hubby so much.
Quote from: RuskieGirl on February 01, 2005, 01:09:36 AMfair enough. let's shake on it. That was a pretty lame apology for essentially calling the guy a d.ick when all he was trying to do was defend you.

I agree, I always tell my wife she is beautiful. I say things like "Hey woman, get your pretty face into the kitchen and make me a sammich" or "You look really nice today, now go do the laundry"
