Maybe it's because i have no patience for dumb things. Maybe it's because i expect a certain level on intellegence from people so it frustrates me when i get anything less? Maybe it's because I really dont trust people (women especially because they are sneaky) until i am given a reason to trust so sometimes i am thinking 'what is she really up to' which will then put me in a bad mood. I'm working on the whole trust issue but as far as just mean comments I am working on being nice as well. I would like to be able to chill and just be nice to my woman but when i start being to nice she starts to take my kindness for weakness. Then when i am a some what of a dick she wonders what's wrong and becomes more humble. Not sure what to do but i dont want to be a scrooge. Any advice?
This is so close to what I do from time to time that I could have made this post. It's a struggle, man. Like you mentioned, I have no patience for "dumb things" and I expect a certain level of intelligence as well as simply thinking of things through.

This part of what you wrote is true over here too: "I would like to be able to chill and just be nice to my woman but when i start being to nice she starts to take my kindness for weakness. Then when i am a some what of a dick she wonders what's wrong and becomes more humble."

Ain't that the truth? I don't understand that part either. If I kiss ass and tell her how beautiful she is (which I truly believe) and how lucky I am to have her (which I also truly believe) she seems to start seeing weakness, just like you say. But if I have an attitude like I really don't care she is trying to please me. Women!

We've been together for 5 years. But I have learned so much over the last 6 months it would be impossible to share it all here, especially since I have to leave to take my dogs to the vet in just a few minutes. Hopefully I'll remember this post later. There's a bit of a balance I've found that works well.
