Re: If your wife say
Just talk to her in a straightforward manner. Tell her "Look, I'd like to resolve issues but you need to understand that I'm not a mind reader. What you want is a mind-reader and not mature, direct, open communication. And unfortunately, relationships are built upon communication and not psychic abilities. I'm open to understanding and solving problems provided that I know exactly what they're about. And until you're ready to communicate with me openly so that we can move forward.....you're more than welcome in having any kind of day you want; hot, cold, luke-warm, cloudy, frigid, on, or off."
