Today, my wife and I decided to try a relationship book. The first activity was to write down some things your partner does that bothers you. I made a very long list, then my wife and I swapped papers. She'd written, "nothing, I love everything about you." She read my list and began tearing up. FML

If your wife is in such deep denial that she refuses to acknowledge that you're human, she doesn't love you. She loves the image she has created of you, the one that never makes mistakes. When she finally realizes that you are a real person with imperfections, she'll either leave you or cheat. Start going to couples therapy before that happens, or your marriage is doomed. DOOMED, I SAY!!!

DOOMED!!!! DOOMED I TELL YOU!

How the hell can you say that about someone's love life? Jackass.

You're kind of driving it to the extremes. Telling someone that their marriage is doomed simply because the wife was trying to be cute about a relationship book they were doing is WAY overstating it. Seriously.

Agreed. Thinking your partner is perfect is naive. This guy maybe made too long of a list but it's better to have a partner with flaws you can learn to love and live with, than to block out the things you dislike so you can live a fairy tale.

omg thats so sad. i feel bad for the woman. :(

Odly enough I thought of the cosby show after reading this comment. Did she redo her list to add things she doesn't like about you out of spite?

i thought of friends (the one with the list)

Aw :/ well at least you were being honest, and love her anyways..right? :P

Totally agreed. It's impossible that one doesn't have thing that bother him/her.

She was lying. No one is perfect, and there's gotta be SOMETHING (likely, LOTS of things) about you that annoy her. I'm sure she's complained about something at least once before... next time she does, point out that she didn't list anything!

That's depressing. But at least you seem to love her enough to do this with her, be honest, and care about her feelings. FYL, FHL, but tell her you didn't mean to hurt her (I take it you didn't) If she loves you that much you can work it out :)

Damn. You'd at least hope she wouldn't have agreed to an activity like that if she wasn't ready to deal with the outcome.

FYL indeed, wtfs the book for if shes gonna lie anyways. At least you know who is honest and whos not.

Wow. She definitely was not being honest, and is upset that you did not lie. That is terrible. Relationships are about honesty and communication, and I think that is probably in that book, and by saying "Nothing about you bothers me" is nothing short of a cop-out and blatant lie. How can she expect to improve her relationship if she isn't truthful?
