So your wife's been asleep for two days? What'd you put in her drink? Seems like you might have unfulfilled ego issues and a deep need for bragging rights. Too bad your marriage doesn't quench these thirsts as well. Since you also are speaking for your spouse would be interested to hear her side of the story. When she wakes up. Maybe she sleeps so much because you are an incredibly egotistical bore.

What was funny was I was thinking that at work the next day and when I got home she said she had been thinking about the same thing. We both noticed it. It is an odd relational peace.
I know you were only kidding, but this is a big deal to me because before I met her in 1997 I was married for 20 years to a person that was never satisfied with who I was, and was physically a “cold fish” during the entire relationship (in hindsight, it is just all she knew). I continued to try and believed that no matter what happened, after I died, Jesus would say “well done, good and faithful servant. You did your best”. And that is what happened, though it was ended by her going for the “no fault divorce” - with three teenaged daughters.
Because I know from personal experience (and the testimony of others) what many American men (and women) put up with in marriages, and honestly had no inkling of how good it could be, I am amazed to this day by the “chick film like” relationship my wife and I have. I thought that sort of stuff was “science fiction for women”, but it really does happen in the real world. I’m experiencing it - and it only gets better with every passing month.
And by posting this, in a subtle but real way I am raising the bar. I wish I had read something like this before I married my first wife.
