When you say something about having a discussion, was it a discussion your husband showed an active interest in thereby participating with the full vigor one seeks in an active conversation where all parties participate equally, or did he make time to listen knowing the consequences would be worse than suffering through the listening process? I've yet to find the magic middle ground where both parties really listen. I can't remember the last time I had a conversation which actually stimulated the thought process. As you know, I like/liked the article. And I think many couples have known the gist of what the article is saying for longer than the researchers have. But then, they are those couples which, for a variety of reasons, have remained together happy or otherwise. I'm not sure if what the article says is something which actually makes a marriage happier for both parties, or just alleviates some of the tensions between two parties whose way of thinking is totally different. One concedes as a matter of personal honor knowing that the decisive path to the end of a means is the wrong path.
