Script Is Needed Indeed!

That is something that my husband actually agrees on. Whenever we talk, and that happens on a daily basis, I talk like a regular girl where I say things that I don’t really mean, but say them so Matt would disagree with such statements and say something nice instead :) Well, the trouble is that my husband is not so intuitive and he does not catch such little things, instead he falls right into the trap and agrees with my statement. I always do follow with a correction to his agreement by saying “no, you were supposed to say ….” He always laughs when I say that. But seriously, when I say things like “I feel bad for taking all your money” he really should say “But you are worth every penny and I don’t mind at all” or when I say “I needed a husband who could potentially take care of me” instead of him saying “yeah, I figured” he was supposed to say “It’s you who take care of me” ….things like that :) You would think after so much practice (we have been married for a year and a half and I was like that even when we were dating, so add 2 years to that), so after daily conversations for 3.5 years you would think Matt would figure out and foresee such traps that I set oh, once in awhile, but no, he is still pretty oblivious to them :) So, finally during our conversation last night Matt said that he really does need to get a script of what he needs to say before our actual conversation. I am thinking it is not such a bad idea. Although I must admit that I would like him to come up with nice answers on his own, and not just read them off the script. But nonetheless, I will contemplate on this whole script idea, because I must admit it’s a good one :) He won’t be stressed out about figuring out what I need him to say and I will hear what I want :) Although I must say that Matt really enjoys it when I tell him what he was supposed to say, he gets a kick out of it, I think….so that might be worth not moving forward with the script :) I will have to draw out pros and cons of the whole script idea, won’t I?

yeah well a script would get me less trouble. The other answer would be for you to STOP setting traps for me... Just a thought.
