Seriously, if he would have said this rather than "Nothing" she wouldn't be having a pseudo mental breakdown. Completely avoidable.

[–]Culero 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I like how the default position for some people (yes) is to assume the other person is angry at them.

That said, it could've all been avoided by him saying "motorcycle problems" were he able to predict all possible outcomes.

THAT said, I've had exes, even after revealing whatever mundane thing that was bothering me go on to suggest that there was something else.

THAT SAID, I'm looking way too much into all of this.

Text from image:

Her Diary:

Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much. I asked him what was wrong: He said, "Nothing." I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it. On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior I don't know why he didn't say, "I love you too." When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent. Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. But I still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else. He fell asleep - I cried. I don't know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster.

His Diary:

Motorcycle won't start...can't figure out why.

Everyone is going to comment about how the wife is overreacting and "haha women are stupid," but all the guy had to say was, "My motorcycle won't start and I can't figure out why," and the woman would have totally gotten it. She doesn't have to understand anything about motorcycles to understand that he's upset something of his isn't working right.

Thing is, my train of thought isn't going in a straight "Motorcycle won't start, can't figure out why" line. It goes more like "Bike won't start. I wish it would. Or should I buy new bike? That american guy is making Tron bikes for $50k. Oh, but they probably handle very poorly. It would be like riding a skateboard on gravel. Oh, I should grab my skateboard and visit Steve some day. Oh wait, Steve has a baby. Babies shit a lot and stink. Like bears. I wonder if bears will ever be added to Minecraft. Hah, it would suck if a bear destroyed my binary calculator that I built in Minecraft. Modern pocket calculators are so small! I wonder if I could turn my Arduino microcontroller into a calculator. Oh but wait, I don't have enough buttons. I should go and get some right now. Oh wait, my motorcycle won't start. Fuck."

You actually read too much into the situation as well. He's not upset about his motorcycle not starting. He's just distracted the whole time trying to figure out why it won't start. But yes, he should have say that was worried and said why he was distracted.

[–]Judazz 37 points38 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think the man doesn't know that the woman is so worried, and he can't tell that he's acting in an unusual fashion. All the woman did, was ask him one time about what was wrong.

Yes! Most men are silent when in "problem-solving mode" but women interpret that as anger because that is how they act when they are pissed.

[–]bge951 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

He's just distracted the whole time trying to figure out why it won't start.

That presupposes that all of her observations are accurate. In my experience, a few seconds of inattention can lead to hours of perceived "acting weird" -- her projecting her preconceived notions/fears onto his perfectly normal behavior -- which can lead to paranoid ramblings of this type.

[–]whitemagic420 91 points92 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Wrong! She would have immediately asked what's wrong with it? He would Reply "idk." She would have then asked, "Did you ask your brother about it?" Him " No." Her "what about your dad?" Him, growing frustrated, " No he doesn't know shit about bikes." Her, " Oh, I thought he was a good mechanic?" Him " he is, but he doesn't know." Her, "Really? I would think he would know, he can fix anything." him, " me too, but he cant" Her "Well are you going to take it to the mechanic?" Him, growing angrier, " I Dont Know Yet." Her " oh you dont want to spend the Mo...... " "WOULD YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!"

[–]My_Life_For_Zoidberg 55 points56 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

No, he's just someone who doesn't want to be bothered while trying to figure something out. Honestly speaking, when people keep trying to 'help' you out by asking you stuff you most likely already thought of, it's just annoying as fuck and does nothing but frustrate you.

[–]Evenfall 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This is true. If he wanted help he would have said "My motorcycle won't start and I can't figure out why, can you help me?" But he didn't, which should mean to any logical person that he is still in the process of doing it on his own, let him ponder.

[–]Mirm83 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

But he made it her problem when he couldn't prevent the issue from interrupting their time together.

If he didn't want to talk about that, why didn't he make the effort to talk about something else? Or cancel the evening with her?

"I'm sorry, honey, I can't pay any attention to you because I've got this on my mind. No, I don't want to talk about that either." Silence ensues.

They are on a date. Reschedule the date night if you actually want to focus so bad on something else. If you're going to eat out with your girlfriend/wife at a restaurant like it's described in this picture, then forget your worries and enjoy your time at the fucking restaurant, or reschedule, if what's on your mind is that bad. Else what? just sit there, in silence, thinking about your worry all night long, eat the food and let's go home? Wow you must be an awesome guy to go out with.

[–]NAM_killer 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I agree but she could very well be the kind of woman who would flip shit if he cancelled on her, OR he was getting frustrated at the fact that his pride an joy was fucked and wanted something to help get his mind off it.

[–]Tetchy -5 points-4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Then I think in that case, they are not appropriate people for one another because they have different ideas about what holds as a relationship. People usually seek out companionship with people with similar ideas; in the "example talk" by whitemagic420, the woman didn't understand the man's liking of solitude and the idea of "idk". In a good relationship, she would have dropped it, or even if she did continue the man wouldn't have gotten angry and instead would have understood she was concerned out of adoration for him.

Yay unhealthy relationships.

[–]donpapillon 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Take your head out of the clouds, kid, that situation happens even with the best and most loving couples.

If you keep thinking that this is completely and utterly unacceptable to ever happen in a good relationship, then I'm very sorry, but the likelihood of you ever having a lasting and rewarding relationship is almost zero.

I'm serious, I don't want to prove you wrong or anything small like that. This is really life changing. If you're not down to earth about this you're in for some horrible times.

Listen or don't listen, one way or another I wish you the best.

[–]seeashbashrun 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Exactly. Me and my boyfriend rarely have this issue. I've learned that if he really doesn't want to talk about something, but is being all cranky about it, I'll leave him alone till he can man up enough to tell me. If it is actively changing his behavior towards me, I tell him to either tell me what's up or be nice to me and pretend it didn't happen (not cuz I don't want to hear it, but it's my way of reminding him that if it bothers him enough to change his behavior towards me, then he's got to tell me what it is. Otherwise, it really isn't a big deal). And if he really makes me feel ignored, I say this, "Hon, what ever's on your mind may or may not have nothing to do with me, and I'm sorry if this seems like I'm nagging. But I feel like you've been cold to me all night (list tangible examples so he knows what I'm talking about). It's okay if you don't want to talk about it, but if it is something I've done, can you at least tell me so I can work on it?". I think it's funny/sad how many arguments get started between men/women simply because a lack of communication.

This is true, but you are wrong that he's 'upset'. This doesn't qualify as upset, and that's why he doesn't remark on it.

He also doesn't know anything is wrong with her! She never tells him that she's bothered by his mind being preoccupied. If she had only asked what he was thinking about, instead of drawing all these conclusions on her own, he would've told her. Basically, all these "problems" were her own manufacturing.

[–]AliasAurora 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Okay, so basically this guy should not be expected to have the social skills to figure out that he should tell his wife what he's thinking about when she asks "What's wrong?"

[–]theawesomeone 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

There's nothing wrong that concerns her. If he's a little preoccupied with his thoughts about something else, and doesn't want to share, it doesn't mean her thoughts that the marriage is falling apart is reasonable.

[–]AliasAurora 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It concerns her because it's interrupting their time together. Communication is essential to an effective marriage. She has every reason to be concerned.

[–]theawesomeone 0 points1 point ago

Because he must give her his undivided attention just because they're out for dinner? They're married, not on their first date.

[–]AliasAurora 0 points1 point ago

Attitudes like that are the reason for the divorce rate being what it is. People think they don't have to put any effort into their relationship once they're married.

[–]theawesomeone 0 points1 point ago

No the divorce rate is what it is because divorce absolutely screws men over while ex-wives make out like a bandit. She should be more considerate and recognize that there's something bothering him that doesn't concern her, and not freak out over it.

[–]Inabit 0 points1 point ago

If this is also the world where a woman can know her husband so poorly she thinks the marriage is falling apart because he is distracted one day, then yes.

I agree. Guys, don't hate on a girl when she see's your upset. You're lucky to have someone care about your well being. Don't make this person feel like shit about themselves because they want to make sure that you're not upset about something more concerning than a damn motorcycle.

[–]StolenLampy 2 points3 points ago

He wasn't upset though. He was just deep in thought about why his motorcycle wasn't working, and she read way too much into it.

I mostly agree with this, except I doubt she would have 'totally gotten it' unless she was also into that stuff.

Assuming they were in a loving relationship not saying i love you too is a dick move even if tragedy like your motorcycle not starting is looming on the apocalyptic horizon.

But I guess Im just a romantic?

some women don't understand. their logic points them to buy a new motorcycle and stop crying. I tend to wind up with some very "damaged" women though.

Stop dating lazy rich people, then. Anybody who grew up with parents living from paycheck to paycheck knew better than to "just get a new one."

Or they just don't feel the need to write it down in a journal, and instead keep track of the practical problems rather than hypotheticals? Seriously, after puberty, I went from big rants about emotions and insecurities to just stuff like "need to do this next week, this next friday, and need to figure out how to fix this" because I was working through it all in my head rather than writing it down. The only purpose a journal serves for me is to remind me of things I need to do or things I loved, not to worry about things. I actually feel worse re-reading my early entries because they bring up so much pain and confusion that I've worked through already.

[–]tonytwotoes 17 points18 points ago

posts like this make me hate reddit comments because they don't offer a reason as to why they are saying what they are saying, merely making a statement that no one really cares about. if a reason was given as to why this type of a post (a link to a picture?) makes you hate reddit i would be more inclined to agree/disagree with you, but as it stands all i have to go on is that you have links to pictures....

[–]BeffyLove 8 points9 points ago

Because of all the sexism that goes on, which I thought was obvious from the other comments, but I will elaborate just for you! The hivemind blames all of it's problems on women, and it's always the woman's fault when something relationship related doesn't go exactly right. It's insanely frustrating.

[–]JCoil4 16 points17 points ago

To be fair, her worries are perfectly valid. I went through a similar situation, and he broke up with me a few days later. Communication is important, no matter if you're a man or a woman, and I try to enforce that in my own life. You could say that she was blowing things out of proportion, but you could also say that the husband was being inconsiderate by leaving her out and letting her wonder.

I am not a big fan of the whole "Mars/Venus" joke meme because I think I speak fluent Venusian even though I'm a dude. Having said that, I think this does speak to a true difference between the genders. As a general rule a guy who says "It's nothing" or he doesn't want to talk about it genuinely does not want to. He isn't trying to be drawn out of his shell or any such thing.

the "her diary" portion was in a reading activity I had in my Portuguese class today. But the "his diary" said something like: "I had a tough day at work and I was tired. I got a quicky later that night though." So random.

My girlfriend calls these "crazy girl thoughts" and when she confronts me about something related to these thoughts and I give her the reason she then apologizes, after which I tell her not to apologize she is perfectly within her rights to ask what is wrong if something seems off about me. Sometimes she'll apologize about apologizing at which point I smile, chuckle, and then either plant a big kiss on her lips or lick her nose.

It seems to work well.
