What do you do when you go out with your girlfriends? If you are like us, at some point… you complain about your husbands, then you “share” a dessert.
When we (Nancy and Debbie) starting sharing our woes over lunch about ignored cat puke puddles on the duvet and hazardous laundry piles - we found solace in our shared experiences. Having perspective that you are not alone is so important, and having an outlet to laugh about these silly little things that happen in your marriage is even more important. Selfishly, Ugh. My Husband... helps us have more patience with our husbands; now instead of seeing a big mess and being mad, we can see a big mess and find the humor of the situation and thank our husbands (secretly) for providing the fuel for our next installment.
So the moral of the story is: Love your husband, figure out how to laugh instead of yell, tell your friends the truth about your annoying husband and they will do the same; then you will feel better and wont need to have extra desserts… Unless you really, really, really want one (like we usually do…)
Do your husbands really do all of the stuff you write about?
We wish we had to use our imaginations to make up these stories but we are not that creative. In fact, most of what we write about happens on a recurring basis, but it would be painfully boring for you, our reader, to read about every instance of husband humiliation.
Do you believe in marriage counseling?
Absolutely. We strongly believe that it is better to grow together than grow apart; counseling provides an arena for open communication for both husband and wife. No matter how many times you pick his socks up off the floor, all you can really ask from your partner is open communication and a willingness to work on themselves for the sake of the relationship.
Are you always right?
Absolutely not but we will never admit this to our husbands and neither should you.
Have a question? Ask The Wives!
