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?

You always maintained your impartiality with us. You encouraged Rita to be more assertive in stating what she wanted to get from your counseling sessions, as well as what she wanted to get from the relationship. You taught both of us better communication between ourselves, which lead to an emotional comfort level between us that didn't exist before. You took control of the direction of the session if things were not moving along. Thanks so much for helping us." Rita and Mark |
