How to respond to this shit test?

And Lunchables are shit for your kids. Full of sodium and processed crap. Paying some attention to this would be good as a leader and father

Remind us why you're wanting another child with this woman?

I got pushed away after about two seconds. I said how about areal kiss. To which she responded in a passive aggressive tone, "I don't see you making lunch for the kids."

Men can be romantic, even when they are acting in accordance with what a book has told them to do. At times it doesn't work. Here, a kiss was attempted and rejected, then attempted again and met with a shit-test. Apparently, the timing of the kiss was off as your spouse was devoting her attention to her child at the time.

By not arguing or belaboring the point, you did not come off as desperate. You did not become another child for her to care for. So, do not let this rejection distress you. Continue going on about your daily productive life.

By the way, she goes overboard with making cutesy cut out sandwich shapes whereas I buy them lunchables.

Your wife clearly cares for your child. She is putting forth maximum effort for them, even when it comes to making them sandwiches. Do not subject her to ridicule. This is an admirable quality.

and I work my ass off handling finances and hiring people to clean and take care of the yard ...

...and you expect something in return for your hard work? You are doing what is necessary for your family in your view. By expecting something in return for this, you have engaged in a covert contract. Recognize this. Do these things out of a sense of duty, not out of a desire for recompensation.

I am no slouch. In fact, I keep busy throughout the day improving me or fixing things around the house while she Facebooks about half the time.

Once again, you are doing you. Focus on that. Do not focus on her actions. For you can only improve you.

Well.. the answer is to not care that she pushes you away. Your ego is taking a hit... or you wouldn't be thinking about this.

By the way, she goes overboard with making cutesy cut out sandwich shapes whereas I buy him lunchables.

Yeah, I'm not sure if you're trying to use that as some sort of put down about her wasting time or something, but this just makes her sound like a mother who really cares about her kid and you some lame father who doesn't give a shit.

In fact, I keep myself busy throughout the day improving me or fixing things around the house while she Facebooks about half the time.

Ego protection kicking in here.

My SMV is probably 7. I think hers is probably 6.

okay? too bad she doesn't see it that way.

BluepillProfessor · 2016-08-29T16:43:37+00:00

Your wife responded to your kiss for 2 seconds even though you didn't warn her and even though she was distracted. What is the problem?

stonepimpletilists · 2016-08-29T17:29:37+00:00

Sex is slightly better than when I was plugged in, but maybe because we are trying to have a kid

Yeah, this isn't sex, you're on a honeydo tasking. You pick a stupid situation to make a stand, she gives you a congruence test, and you fail it miserably.

This is not your issue, I guarantee it. Back to work, you're nothing special, plus I guarantee you're back to DB if and when you knock her up again.

Also, I'm laughing at your bullshit SMV. You don't know, you don't get to set it. I guarantee she thinks you're lower, otherwise, she'd be fucking you, even when she doesn't want another baby

Scurvemuch · 2016-08-29T17:32:48+00:00

My SMV is probably 7. I think hers is probably 6.

you wanted a kiss and she said no... so no, her smv is not lower than yours

she goes overboard with making cutesy cut out sandwich shapes whereas I buy him lunchables. And I work my ass off handling finances, and hiring people to clean and take care of the yard, managing household, finances, pets, cars. I am no slouch. In fact, I keep myself busy throughout the day improving me or fixing things around the house while she Facebooks about half the time.

"Whaa Guise... I'm doing all the riiigh chooress... why she no kiss me!!!!!!!!! Bitch , riiight?/ Guise??

Stop being a faggot. If you gotta ask about a real kiss, she is right to shit test you like that... " Yup, hubby is still a faggot"

J_Incognito · 2016-08-30T20:05:30+00:00

pick your spots a little better. Pulling her away from a task wasn't going to get you far.

Hands on her hips and a dirty whisper into her ear is a good opening salvo. If she spins around and says "oh yeah", then go for the kiss. No response, then ass slap and walk away.

Regardless, all of this should be fun and light.

SteelToeShitKicker · 2016-08-29T22:16:13+00:00

Lunchables suck. I hope when you are old in the nursing home your kids drop off lunchables for you.

RP_SuitScholar · 2016-08-29T14:55:22+00:00

So did you just walk away? If you did without saying anything then I don't think you failed. Obviously you're pissed and you need to not be. If you have only been unplugged for 4 months there is no way you're going to get a 10 second kiss during her busy mode. Remember she has to be led, which can take considerable effort and patience on your part. If that makes you frustrated direct it at yourself for being a beta pussy that let his relationship evolve into this rated PG bullshit situation.

I don't want to give you advice other than stop needing shit from her. You're not self-actualized yet. You will get that 10 second makeout session when you no longer need it for validation. Women can smell beta desperation and you're oozing it right now, brother.

STFU seems fine, assuming you maintain frame. I get similar things and I STFU and move on with my day and she resolves her shitty attitude all on her own. Or you could try some A&A...

Every time I do I end up eating it for myself! ;)

Last time I did the school called and warned me about packing beer in their lunches... ;)

You're right; I didn't think it would be appropriate to give the kids penis shaped sandwiches... ;)

SorcererKing · 2016-08-29T15:39:17+00:00

Try making the 10 second kiss fun and spontaneous. Do the Bruce Campbell/Army of Darkness: "Gimme some sugar, baby!"

Also, make her give you a peck on the cheek when you leave. Turn your head slightly away from her, smirk, and using one finger, tap your cheek. Don't do it like you're asking, but like it's expected and you're only telling her that now is the time.

Oh, and the "I'm making lunch so I can't kiss you" shit test? Sometimes shit tests are so weak they don't even hardly deserve a response: "I know right? Too busy with this!" Resume kiss.

P.S. - might consider slowing your roll on that extra kid.

SexistFlyingPig · 2016-08-29T21:14:19+00:00

"Our kid needs two lunches?"

"I thought you were already doing that."

"You're right. Right now I'm kissing you."

UEMcGill · 2016-08-30T13:42:54+00:00

I said, what about a real kiss?

Butthurt.

"I don't see you making lunch for the kid".

Yeah when my wife says shit like that, I tease her back. Personally I would have picked up the sandwich she was making and took a bite. "mmmm good job babe!", ass-slap-walk-away.

You take her too seriously. Learn to laugh at her.

trp_dude · 2016-09-01T17:58:22+00:00

Your SMV is too low. The 10 second kiss advice was retracted by the author in a subsequent book, because it completely backfires if your SMV is not high enough.

Try again after you've lost 50 lb and your body fat is at 10%.
