You love your guy, you really do, but boy, can he be a pain! You ask him to help with one simple thing, and it\u2019s \u201cNo! Can\u2019t you see I\u2019m busy? Not now!\u201d He\u2019s ornery. Difficult. Stubborn. Irritating. You can feel yourself getting worked up as you stare at the man, wondering what you ever saw in him. Ever. Now you\u2019re getting even more pissed and self-righteous.<\/p>\n

I mean, all you asked was could he please watch the baby for a minute while you took a shower.<\/p>\n

When you finally get to the shower, you\u2019re even more incensed. How dare he! You do 90% of the housework, chores, taking-care-of-the-kids, plus go to work, and hardly ever ask him for anything! By the time you get out of the shower, you\u2019re glowering. You yank the baby from him, lips tightly pursed, and announce \u201cI\u2019m going to my mother\u2019s!\u201d<\/p>\n

He\u2019s all \u201cWhat did I do now?!\u201d And you\u2019re thinking \u201cIf he can\u2019t figure it out, I\u2019m not telling him!\u201d<\/p>\n

Crying on your mom\u2019s shoulder might comfort you for a while, but it makes more sense to figure out how not to get all wrought up in the first place.<\/p>\n

The love nest egg<\/p>\n

You need a nest egg. Not the money kind (although that is a good idea) but the love kind. You know, something you can draw from when he\u2019s being cranky or lazy or irritating, not fit-to-live-with, and you need it now.<\/p>\n

A love nest egg is a list you compile of all the ways in which your sweetheart is wonderful. It\u2019s a list you add on to whenever he\u2019s being his sweet self, his considerate self, his dreamy I-love-him-so self. A love nest egg is something you keep carefully stashed in your underwear drawer and stare at to remind yourself of the 90% of the time (OK, 82%) that he\u2019s a good guy, the one that makes you laugh and the one with whom you fell deeply in love. (Not to mention the one you so enjoyed making that baby with.)<\/p>\n

Uh-huh. See? You\u2019re smiling already<\/p>\n

So take some time to build that love nest egg and refer to it when you\u2019re going through tough times. A caring and understanding relationship will surely flourish because of your efforts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
