105(gsm ), I'm pretty sure with the 6 BILLION PEOPLE milling around in this world, there are chances of this happening to other couples,you nincompoop. OP, I said YDI because this was clearly a setup by the wife. I am female before the females start slamming me. YDI also because you NEVER do those relationship book things esp. if she asked you to: 1st red flag. No offense but your wife is either naive,lying or a serious idiot. Unless you are a robot, you have faults too and she should've listed them too. FHL for being a blatant liar in order to live out a fairy tale where everything is perfect. I'd say FYL for having a wife who's way too sensitive though. Women who cry at the drop of a hat annoy the heck out of me. Like someone already said, tell her to man up and get her head out of the clouds; this is the real world not a Disney movie
that's what happens when your wife is not being truthful and not playing the right way.
honestly, this sounds like an episode of "Everybody Loves Raymond"...
You know...some people just suggest/agree to these things as a joke. In other words, she might have already thought everything was just fine. Like: "Oh yes, totally, we need this book because we have SO many things wrong in our relationship..." I can see how she's upset. She probably does have some things that annoy her about her husband, but because she loves him she's willing to tolerate it. (That's what love is about, you uneducated virgins.) He, on the other hand, obviously can't seem to accept her flaws and therefore she wonders if he really loves her at all. Fake or not, I feel bad for both the OP and his wife But mostly the wife, because she got the worst end of it I think. I also think that her husband could have used *just* a *bit* more tact, the list didn't have to be so long. (I'm surprised she didn't at least write analystic, insensitive SOB on hers.) Those of you who keep blaming the woman: you all suck.
I think the OP is really only guilty of being tactless, namely, writing too long of a list and not softening it with something like "but I love you and you are still my perfect woman". but being brutally honest is more of a plus in a relationship, in my experience. i think it's the best when both parties give each other honest feedback, positive and negative, throughout the relationship, and never take for granted when the other person does a nice thing. simple daily rituals of compliments and affection really work miracles in keeping both sides happy and appreciative or each other. ppl are also more receptive to constructive criticisms when they are reassured constantly of the other person's appreciation of him/her. just my $0.02. this fml is really a fyl and fhl.
So he's the bad guy for actually following the rules of the book? That's ******* retarded.
Wow. I`m guessing that she proposed the book. But all the same, she kind of had it coming. Guys are pretty much honest with this stuff. On the girl`s behalf, she was just attempting something cute and to tell you that even though you`re flawed, she loves you. Like all the other people here saying, I do believe that everyone has something that they don`t like about their partner. It`s just the fact that you love them that makes you overlook them and makes then insignificant in your relationship. Otherwise, FYL. You meant well - sort of. You were honest.
FAIL!
I still can't believe some guys still fall for the "tell me all my flaws so that we can be a stronger couple" trick. Guys, it never works, girls don't like to be told what is wrong with them. subtlety working at it, acceptable. Anyway, let that be a lesson to you guys. (and always make her show her hand first)
lol.... I could only imagine the look she gave you when she saw that paper full of comments....owned.

i bet the wife was the one that came up with the idea of the book lolz
Oh that was a setup... i feel bad for both of you :-
