On Husband Training
I love my husband to death - let me be clear. However, I have noticed that he sometimes seems to be out of practice when it comes to some of the basic training men receive (from whom, I'm not sure) regarding the opposite sex.
Case in point:
A few weeks ago I lamented out loud that I wouldn't mind getting a boob job after we're done with children. For a little background: I've always been fine with the size and shape of my breasts. They're fine - nice even. However, the migrated notable southward after my pregnancy with Thomas and I wouldn't mind eventually having them hoisted back into their original place.
Now, as far as I know, every man alive knows the proper response when one's wife/girlfriend/significant other says they'd like a boob job. It goes something like this: "Why? I think you're beautiful just the way you are. You really don't need one." Or perhaps they even throw in a "I don't think you need one, but if that's really what you want, I'll support you."
What they do NOT say is:
"Well, you know, they're really not that expensive anymore."
My husband did, however, make that exact statement - verbatim.
All I could do was die laughing. Thankfully, I really don't have much of an issue about my boobs, or else he really could've sent me over the edge with that one!
To illustrate his mistake, I used the following example. I hypothesized that if he had approached me and mentioned that he would like a penile enlargement surgery, he might be somewhat taken aback if I were to reply: "Well, you know, they're not that expensive anymore."
The light bulb went on above his head and he suddenly saw my point.
Does anyone know if they offer refresher courses at community colleges?
