What husbands don’t know about their own wives is a lot! Often they insist their wives are angry and sullen when obviously they’re hurt and rejected or they have tastes that, with a little probing, I discover are theirs, not the wife’s at all. Or sometimes, when I ask what their wife really wants from life or truly enjoy, they have absolutely no idea…either it’s changed over the years, or, in some extreme cases, they’ve never really bothered to find out in the first place. Then I have to play detective. What magazines are on her bedside table? Does she look at any catalogs? What was the last meal she ordered in a restaurant? Who does she admire? What does her best friend do?…It’s amazing what you learn just watching someone go about their daily life for a few minutes.
