Not if you lived here. You'd be telling her you want her to fry her budonkidonk off. It's sweltering.

The thing I most like to hear from my husband: "OMG! We just won the Publishers Clearinghouse Sweepstakes". But I'm not holding my breath as we never enter. ;)

not to get all Oprah on you... but have you tried thanking him for his stuff?

I know that when I feel unappreciated it helps me to thank my wife for stuff. For instance, instead of saying grace at the start of a meal ( &gt;atheist still&lt; ) I might thank my wife for cooking it.

Use "I" statements: ie, instead of "You never appreciate me - all you do is sit around reading those stupid comic books on a Saturday morning while I clean up around you!" you could say "Honey, there's a lot of stuff that needs doing today - I could really use some help. I feel like you don't value my efforts when you read while I work. Can you please help me?"
Excellent observation. In my last marriage even this did not work. Yell, scream, beg, pled, cry, throw things....nothing worked to get through to that man. My darling husband would probably have a list like Lissa for me. I expect so much from the people I love. I NEED to appreciate HIM so much more than I do. He's my BLISS.

A man runs into the room waving a lottery ticket shouting and jumping up and down.

"Oh my god oh my god oh my god," he shouts, "I've just won the LOTTERY!! I'm rich I'm rich! I need to celebrate, pack your bags honey!"

"Should I pack for cold weather or hot?" She asks, jumping to her feet.

"I don't care," says the husband. "Just f*** off!"

That would be funny if it weren't for the
"the husband part". They are married she takes half plus alimony...........so he'll be the one packing sand. You are right THAT is a funny joke. So ironic.
