{Wife has dry expression, Hubby enters the kitchen}
Wife: Here you go, your food! (slopping the salan on the roti with a doi symbolically in a hitting motion)
Hubby: Thank you … Aaa … you’re so cute! (pretending to ignore the gesture of animosity)
Wife: Hmpf … Go and eat your food.
Hubby: I love your beautiful brown eyes (he thinks - ’ o my gosh she is in a mood again).
Wife: (Puts on a more menacing face - in dismissive annoyance)
Hubby: (Walks away and looks back at his wife in a glance see her smiling and sneaking looks at him, as she sees him she puts on an angry face again - he thinks - Aah she is playing her games again, I wonder what she wants?)
Why such a drama … can’t they just speak their mind instead of playing such games? I guess it is done to maxmise their chances of being listened to. Now us men we are not wired to do the same back … we are quite naive when it comes to these things.

Is this a typical situation?
{Wife has dry expression, Hubby enters the kitchen and** tastes achari qeema and makes horrible faces and gives her wife a long lecture about how unhealthy it is to eat too much salt and how she should try to reduce the amount of salt in food**}

I think that was missing from the story. Now this makes complete sense, doesn't it?

Re: Wife messing with the hubby's feelings ... or trying to
She is sad and wants attention. She just wants to "talk" after being at home all day. She could be regretting that she married you or she just found out something about you that she was not suppose to.

Peace All
LOL ... Why is everyone making this out to be some sort of battle with me and hareem01?
The question I asked wasn't a complaint, it was intrigue about behaviour. It was a question where I was asking whether others have observed the same sort of behaviour. The behaviour I was looking for comment on was that a wife would be smiling that turned into a frown when her husband looks back. There was no qeemah in this story nor any salt (LOL) as I write it, it was salan on the roti. This was supposed to be a hypothetical story. To demonstrate the thought that came across me.
The question is: Do women really use their powers of emotional manipulation to capitalise on the situation? And then I gave a scenario to illustrate it.
Was that wife playing hard to get? She was already happy but when he looked she didn't want him to know, because she was in the position of advantage. Everyone is answering the wrong question.
I am the cause of my wife's anger all of the time and she let's me know about it :) ... what I am asking about is not why a wife becomes angry as if it's for no reason, no, I was asking when a wife is happy or at least not that upset she makes it out that it is worse than it really is ... and then plays hard to get after the other half becomes nice and apologetic.
Is this a common female trait? That is all ... the rest of the replies are completely irrelevant to the intent of the opening post.
