Whatever You Want Is Fine...Unless It's Not

Me: " So, what would like for dinner tomorrow night? Grilled steaks or spaghetti and meat sauce?"

I usually have to ask my wife this since she is a very picky eater, whereas I will eat just about anything.

Her: "Why do you need to know now?"
Me: "So I can take the right meat out of the freezer to thaw."
Her: "Oh. What ever you want is fine."
Me: "Okay! Steaks it is."
Her: "Oh. Really? What about spaghetti?"

Maybe she actually likes torturing you.

Oh, how nice it is once she's asleep. Yes, I do stay up a little late... to enjoy the peace. You are not alone.

I hate it when my wife does that!

"why don't you make dinner tonight, so that I don't have to decide what to make for once."

"OK, I'll make a meatloaf!"

"No, why don't you make < fill in the blank >"

Exasperating

LOL I can see how that could be annoying.

I found your blog through True Husband Confessions and I have laughed my way through your archives.

I swear, for a moment, I thought you were my friends husband, you and he suffer in a lot of the same areas.

I can completely relate to these, my ex's best comment to me so far was when I mentioned that I would make chips one night, she turned round and said "but we don't have a potatoe peeler", I was driving at the time and almost crashed the car because i laughed so much. Got to love em

Almost 3 months without a new post. What gives?

I have to admit I'm like that. I don't know what I want until I know what I don't want. Another way to look at would be I don't like to make decisions until I have a chance to veto yours.
