One of my favorite stories (of course it's where my husband was wrong - if I was wrong, it wouldn't be one of my favorite stories) - my husband tore his meniscus. Okay - that's not my favorite part of the story - that part sucked. Anyway, when we were looking at the x-rays with the Dr. - he told us that the tear was bad but that my husband's swelling was REALLY bad. He said that on the swelling scale from 1-4 - he was at a 3/4. Anyway - later that day, hubby is telling his mom about the appointment and tells her that the Dr. said that his TEAR was a 3/4 on a scale from 1-4. I told him that, no - it was the swelling that was a 3/4 - not the tear. Well, we went back and forth for awhile about who was right - and I finally said, "Look, we are both convinced we are right - so let's just leave it at that." Cut to our next appointment with the Dr. He references my husband's swelling on the swelling scale again and we both started laughing uncontrollably! We had to explain to the Dr. why we were cracking up! He didn't find it as funny as we did...
Of course hubby admitted he had been wrong. He really had no choice in the matter!
How many guys are with or have been with a woman who always admitted they were in the wrong or apologize for the arguement or situation you experienced when they were the ones who were actually in the wrong?
The greater problem is that women tend to apologize whether it's warranted or not, just to keep the peace.
erm...yesterday morning i think it was.
my wife said "i don't think that's worth that much we are not buying that" to something i was purchasing for myself with my own money. i told her she was out of line to tell me how to spend my money the way i seen fit and unless she wanted me to watch her spending habits she should stop policing things on my end.
she took it badly because she thought she was helping me understand the value of something i had no idea of....which wasn't the case. it was a small miscommunication on both ends. I apologized for coming off strong to her, she apologized for speaking for me.
Years ago I saw an old western. One of the characters couldn't admit that they were wrong about anything. He tried but it came out as "I was wr,wr, wr wr..." So we employ that line from the movie with humor if the admittance of being a bonehead is any bit sensitive.
