Women are from Venus.
My wife signed us up to attend a marriage conference this weekend. I reluctantly said, "Sure honey, that's great.". It's not that I don't love my wife and our marriage. I do. I just don't like talking about it much. Especially at a conference.
I tried to explain to her how I felt about it. The best I could do was to explain it this way:
"Imagine if I were to ask you to go camping in the woods. In a tent. On the ground. With bugs."
Honestly, I would love that. My wife doesn't think camping outdoors in a tent on the ground sounds like fun at all. Well, that's how going to a marriage conference sounds to me.
I told my oldest son we were going away to a marriage conference. He asked me "What are you going to do there?" I told him were were going to talk about marriage and being married to each other.
"Yuck." he said.
Exactly. 9:13:00 AM
