Oh yeah, I'm there. But after 35 years, Dear Sweetie knows when I'm not "present"...and she'll call me on it. :(

Nope not me... I have to pay strick close attention when she's taking or I'll never hear the end of it. She once snapped a wet kitchen rag through my jeans so hard it left a welt on my ass.

I saw something like that happen on the Hallmark Channel.

I do that all the time, and I pay a hefty price for it. She's figured out that those are the times to ask me to do things I would normally never agree to. "Yah hon, sure, uh-huh, ok...."
Then I have to pay the piper when she brings it up later. I used to be able to deny that I agreed, but one time she recorded the conversation on her smartphone and I heard my vacant "yeah ok", and she had me dead to rights.

After 36 years, my wife avoids having to talk to me at every opportunity. Plus, she thinks I should be able to read her mind (I pretty much can). She is pipe in the house friendly, so I got no complaints.

Well, I would be this kind of husband with or without pipes in my life, so I don't know. Traditionally I blame it on the transcendental meditation, Frank Zappa, and patchouli of my misspent youth.

If my wife would avoid me for 1 day I would be happy...everytime I turn around she's right there.
