What's the point in being angry with someone you love and spend bulk time with? It's a waste of precious moments together that could be happy times. I believe that you shouldn't leave home or go to bed angry or upset - what happens if one of you never wake up or die on your way to work? There's no second chance to say "I'm sorry and love you"

Someone once said "It's not the number of breaths you take, it's the number of moments that take your breath away that matter.

That's my

worth...(okay so it's really been my $2 worth but anyway....

Mah girl knows better than to try to play that game with me, cause I'm as good as if not better than her at it. I can practically read her mind, I know her so well, and I'm good enough with words to make sure I say enough to get her with it later but not enough to be blunt. In other words, when she tries to play that game with me... I get her back and totally pwn her at it.

I just shut down until the game is over.
There is what Is and there is not what is Not, tell me what you mean or want... if you don't know, then say "I don't know". It's simple. Ego has nothing to do with it.
It is what she asks of me, it is only appropriate.

As soon as any woman starts playing mind games where they're angery at you about something they haven't said, leave. Just-don't-go-there. There is not more reason for a woman to pull that crap than a guy, and anyone who does has some serious maturing to do. Sorry, this is a bit of a touchy subject. My best friend was burned badly by this kind of chic so I'm on a permanent no-tollerance streak for flighty bullshit.

After dating for several months my boyfriend walked to the front door to leave and work on his motorcycle. He looked up at the clock and said "I'll be back at 11:30 or so." I said "I'll see you, when I see you."

At 11:29 he walked in and said he came home merely due to curiosity for the definition of "I'll see you, when I see you." and I said this:

Don't leave and tell me you'll be back at X time, because if you aren't home by X time, then I may worry, get upset and my mind wanders. If you said "I'm leaving," I will always say my see you when I see you because you'll get home, I'll see you, you'll see me and no one ever gets pissed.

This to him, was great! Then he said "But what if YOU get tired of waiting for me or I don't come home?" and I said...."Then You'll see me when you see me."

We've been engaged seven years and have yet to miscommunicate where we are out of respect.

As far as the rest of the goobly gook? Say what you mean or tick a lock.

Seven years? Are you going by the "I'll marry you when I marry you" principle?
