Always misinterpreted.

by Vincent
(USA )

My wife always gets really angry when I don't agree with her especially when I disagree with what she says I meant by something I said. For example she asked if something we bought was an Aldi special item. I didn't know if she meant special buy (limited availability) or special select (always available). So I said it was Aldi special but not special buy so we can get it whenever we want. She then started yelling at me for correcting her and then got more mad when I tried to explain why I answered the way I did. This happens all the time... What should I do?

I’d say to reiterate her question first to clarify her intent. Then when it is clear, answer appropriately. Good luck!

If that doesn’t work, she is probably just not in a happy place personally because happy people do not attack others for simple make a point or belittle.
