Marriage advice

So why do all the old married women tell you not to go to bed fighting? Because the guy will be snoozing 2 minutes after hitting the pillow and you will be up all night still furious, hurt, sad, all those crazy emotions and you will get no sleep. You will still be upset in the morning...moreso now because you got absolutly no sleep. He will call you on your way to work, all chipper because he got his 8 hours, and the conflict is miraculously gone...why are men able to do this, but not women...I hate it. Im running on two hours of sleep and a pot of coffee...

  1. I hate how guys can just blow off fights like nothing happened. But I think it's just how they all are. My husband is notorious for this. I have learned to try to just sleep it off and usually the next morning I'll get a note or an apology. Guys are just made so different and get over stuff so much easier then we do. We need to talk things out and hear emotions, which they are pretty much incapable of doing!! I'm sorry you didn't get any sleep!

  2. I got an "are you mad at me?" text message this morning from Jack after a small spat (drunken)we had last night. He's the sensitive one in our relationship, so I'm not convinced these differences are so much gender related as they are a personality thing. I don't know. What do you think?

  3. Usually neither of us are sleeping if we're fighting. We're in the bed, on each side, pretending to be asleep, knowing full well we're both awake. I hate it but don't do anything about it, and I hate having to explain to Shane why I'm mad...it should be obvious.

  4. Oh my god my boyfriend does this too. I can be sitting there crying and carrying on just waiting for some kind of SOMETHING to show he cares one shit about me just to look over and find him dead asleep. Asshole.

  5. I wish I had the ability to just pass out on command like he does. I did get a call this morning with an apology and an offer to take me to dinner after he gets off work...I just hate the lack of sleep. I think Im like a boy, mentally, but just getting back from my little bro's graduation, not seeing my husband for 6 days, and then getting treated like shit when I did get home sent me past my limit of blowing shit off.
