How to Be OK Doing Stuff You Don’t Like That Your Guy Does
Him: “Hockey game’s on Saturday. Wanna grab a bite before?”
You: “Sorry, Hon – I already planned something with my sister.” Mental note to self: make immediate Saturday plans with sister.
Ok, so you’re off the hook for this one, but if you don’t watch it, you may be off the hook for your marriage.
Say what? Yes! Marriage is about engaging in each other’s lives, not living separate lives under one roof.
You don’t like hockey “push, shove, blood, guts” – I get it. So don’t focus on the game!
Instead, take pleasure in being with your guy, pay more attention to the crowd than to the players, find something about the evening to enjoy.
After all, being on the hook with your man is a lot more fun than off the hook without him at all . . .
