		<description>I know what you mean. I'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't share my enthusiasm.

To my knowledge, she still hasn'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'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't have any items you'd like to change that are serious.

When they are, it isn't always fun and games.


But isn't life with a spouse grand?  Always keeps you on your toes :)</description>

		<description>Thanks for stopping by Bargain Quest!

My husband doesn't really read my blog either. He's glad I like bargain hunting, he just isn't as interested. That'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>
