Sometimes, Men Can Actually Be Right
Self-sufficient he is, but invincible he is not. Sometimes my husband, George, should have listened to me because he’s made some interesting choices that he now regrets. Other times he gets along amazingly well without my advice. Okay, I heard that laugh. I’m laughing with you. But to give you an example:
Two years ago we bought some bare root trees: a fig and an almond. Not realizing the time (which is usual for me) I failed to put my bid in for where I wanted them to be planted. In dismay I stood looking at them later. The fig had been planted directly under the branches of one of our old apricot trees and the almond directly under the branches of another old apricot tree. His reasoning was that the apricot trees would die, we’d slash them down and the new trees would already be in place.
I just KNEW they would grow up warped and squatty. But, as he predicted, both apricots popped off from old age and the little trees are cheerily holding their own. He was so right. Wife, you have a treasure in that man of yours. Maybe you can’t see it right now, but start looking, dwelling on his positive points rather on what you are quite sure is hurting your marriage.
