True Story
Husband: I’m afraid to say anything to you.
Wife: What??? What are you afraid of? Why didn’t you ever say anything before? I’m not a mind reader you know! If there’s something you want to say just say it for goodness sake! You never tell me anything. I have to try and guess what you’re thinking and you know what? I’m tired of it! Why do I have to do all the work in this relationship? I know you talk to everyone else. You tell your brother everything. But when it comes to me to us — to our marriage — you just take the easy way out. And then you make it seem like it’s all my fault! Well let me tell you something: this is about you not me. You’re a coward that’s what!
Husband: It’s not that it’s just that —
Wife: Yes it is that and I’ll tell you how I know. It’s because you just want everything to be nice and easy like your parents have it. Well let me tell you something — I don’t want your parents’ marriage! I believe in honesty and openness and communication! We have to communicate! So what if we get emotional? My family is very emotional but we all love each other and my parents have a great marriage because they’re willing to fight if they have to. They’re not dishonest like you and your parents are keeping everything inside and thinking horrible thoughts. I can’t believe how phony you all are.
