		<description>I know what you mean. I&#039;ve found ThoughtfulConsideration.com to be a nice outlet for me since I was boring my sweet wife with lengthy analysis of topics for which she didn&#039;t share my enthusiasm.

To my knowledge, she still hasn&#039;t read this post, so the secret is safe!

		<description>You’re absolutely right. My conclusion here --- as a departure from those in my more normal posts --- was intended to be taken very lightly!

There’s no question that a healthy, caring relationship is one in which both partners can communicate honestly and openly about anything that’s important to them.

At this point I honestly don’t remember the inconsequential conversation that led me to poke fun at conjugal communication. The post alludes to what I perceive to be a male/female stereotype: guys usually don’t have much they want their wives to change, it’s usually the other way around.

There’s nothing quite like a “one-man online pity party”, huh?

		<description>That&#039;s a fairly honest post Andy... however, some times there are those things about your partner that just need to be changed... hopefully you don&#039;t have any items you&#039;d like to change that are serious.

When they are, it isn&#039;t always fun and games.


But isn&#039;t life with a spouse grand?  Always keeps you on your toes :)</description>

		<description>Thanks for stopping by Bargain Quest!

My husband doesn&#039;t really read my blog either. He&#039;s glad I like bargain hunting, he just isn&#039;t as interested. That&#039;s partly why I started the blog, to share thoughts with folks who enjoy deal shopping and save him from having to listen to me go on and on :)</description>
