Ever notice how men have a hard time figuring women out? They just don't understand WHY she does that "thing" she does.
On the other hand, women often shake their head in bewilderment when her husband calls out from down the hall, "Sweetheart, I cant find my....(whatever item it is he cant find at the time)". She calmly goes into the room, locates the item...and it is always in the last place that he left it. I call it "man blindness".
We were created differently. We compliment each other. For example, my husband is super OCD organized and I am more relaxed. Separately he is too uptight with his neatness and I am too relaxed with it. Together we have a perfect balance of comfortable cleanness.
We recently landscaped a yard for someone together. He paid attention to the "big picture" of it all. He did a FANTASTIC job. I paid attention to the little details. You know, the little shepherd hooks placed around, the bird bath positioned "just so" amidst the landscaping, etc. Together, we made what was great, even better.
When times get tough and the nights get long, just remember why you fell in love with them in the first place. Pick your battles and remember to look over those little pet peeves because undoubtedly, you do them too. (wink)
You are a team. Stay a team. You are BETTER as a team.
