Do panthers have good memories? You don’t know, because they’ll eat you if you get too close.

Ha, my husband hates when I bring up old stuff. He says the past is in the past and should stay there. And I say if it is relevant to what we are discussing/arguing about, then it is fair game. Even if it happened 10 years ago.
Honestly, I feel it’s necessary to bring up ancient crap with my man-creature. Sometimes he says things that he would have disagreed with 5 years ago. So I really think it’s in his own best interest to bring up the difference so he can truly be at peace with himself. I’m helping him avoid internal conflict. Really.
I totally do it to help my husband too. I don’t want him to be confused when he thinks back and can’t remember how he felt then vs. now. Course if he does it to me it’s just rude and could get him hit.
It’s called “gunnysacking.” I don’t remember much from my psychology, but that term always cracked me up. Made me think of stuffing my complaints in a leather satchel and saving them for later like a hunk of rawhide.
Haha! Funny. My hubby told me, when we were dating, that I was NEVER allowed to do that. He said it was a deal breaker. He said his mom does it and he hates his mom. So I obeyed.
But now I see the masterful wisdom in it. Now he can be a shit and make me mad enough where I don’t talk to him for 3 days and then I’m not allowed to say anything about it.
Smart ass.
Andy has a lot of wisdom. And patience. :p
I think Andy should buy you this to apologize for all the stuff he has done over the past 15 years:
