Is there something you need to talk about?  Generally the one who's PO'ed in our house is the one who moves out of the bedroom with the best pillows the comfiest comforter and sleeps in our state of the art zero gravity "perfect chair". Sometimes I pick a fight just so I have an excuse to sleep in that chair!  I sprang for the memory foam version...aaaaahhhh! |

Me...who else? DH has only slept on the couch one time and then he had had a little too much to drink (his B-Day). Sometimes I think I sleep on the couch a little too often. Not always cause we had a fight though. He works nights and weekends are the only times he is home at night. Guess I'm used to having the bed to myself so I go to the couch a lot.

It rarely happens to us as we NEVER fight- (yeah right)
When it does happen it's usually the wife. I'm a firm beleiver in not going to sleep mad at your partner. We usually aren't mad for long. Sometimes you must be willing to let somebody else have the last word.

What made me think of this was something that Dad2Brooke wrote around Easter about why we spend so much money on the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, Santa and so on.
Ralph wrote:
"To make matters worse, I think my wife still believes in Santa. Last year, we went shopping and spent a ton of money on Brooke. The next weekend, here Michelle is with another list of Christmas presents. I asked her what they were for, and was told that they were from us. With a sinking feeling I asked her, who was the stuff we had bought the previous weekend from. Santa, she said. To which I replied, Is he gonna reimburse us? Apparently, she did not see the humor to that, and I got to sleep on our really comfortable couch.
It seems to me that maybe in most relationships, it is one person rather than the other that ends up on the couch.

Hubby usually sleeps on the couch....it's a rarity that he comes up to bed  BUT he gets into a show on the history channel and WHAM..... Although when I do laundry and use the couches to sort, you'd think he'd put em away or sleep up stairs. NOPE just transfers them to the chair  OK I GOTTA LOVE SEAT AND A FULL SIZE COUCH FOR SALE OVER HERE ;D ;D ;D Kaiti |

Usually my hubby. The bedroom suit we have was mine we we married so I can hold that over his head, hehe.  ;D But we have a spare bedroom with a queen size bed, so he isn't on the couch and isn't put out too much. Plus it doesn't happen often. |

Well, hubby don't enter the dog house too often, but when he does it's usually for steppin' on my toes. His most recent stay was due to sneaking his boat out for an afternoon ride and lieing to me about it. Yeah, he was in the dog house that night! ;D ;D

You're right. He shouldn't have lied about that. Whenever I sneak away with something, I never say anything.

Now, now Barry, it's not nice to sneak around behine the wifey!
As far as my dh, oh, he didn't tell at first either, but you see, I'm a mother and it's hard to get things past a mother. I figured out what he was up to, gave him a chance to fess up, but he didn't. That's what got him in the dog house! I wasn't mad about him taking the boat out, heck he works hard and deserves a break now and then. I was mad he lied about it.

A person should always fess up right away. No doubt about that. Otherwise, it's "bark, bark" and into the dog house!!++

Dang that's what we're missing! A dog house. My pup has a house. Ours. Guess that means we're all in the dog house. All the time. Explains a lot |
