Recently, my wife Chocolate Malt Shake (CMS) gave me some feedback on my relationship skills. I never saw it coming.
I was explaining to her that I felt comfort in our marriage. Of course this is a good thing. So as to not get too serious, I teasingly added,
The Big Milkshake (TBMS): I feel like I’m wasting my potential in this marriage.
CMS: Are you getting too comfortable?
TBMS: I guess so.
CMS: What are the skills you think you’d be learning [in a different setting]? Negotiating, debating, fighting, complaining?”
TBMS: Yeah, fighting, complaining, and whining.
CMS: Well, you whine a lot.
Ugh. On the positive side, I guess knowing how to whine means that my relationship skills are deeper than I thought.
