One thing about being a good man is you have to be okay with hurting your girls feelings every once in a while. Sometimes she’s gonna be upset because you don’t feel like eating at the restaurant she suggested or watching the movie she wants to watch. You’re going to think “that’s a stupid thing to get upset about” and you’re right. Sometimes we get upset about silly things. Don’t try to argue her. Just hold your ground, be sweet about it, and let her feel through her sensitivity. She knows it’s silly. She knows she’s being a baby. You don’t need to take every emotional tick she has so seriously. Just give her a hug and a kiss and offer something else you think you both might like. Like if you said no to going to a party because you’re too burnt out, maybe take her out for ice cream instead. Your whole job is to stay grounded while she flows down her emotional river. We don’t need you creating waves in her current.
