Hello everyone! This is my first time posting here. My husband and I (27 and 26) have been married for 1.5 years. We have always agreed on having a traditional marriage long before I heard about the Red Pill term. And I am delighted to have found this subreddit, as it helps me reflect and improve.

Today I wanted to share with you a little personal victory. Nothing huge, really, but I have not been married for long and am still learning a lot. Please excuse any mistake I make, English is not my first language.

My husband was making us breakfast this morning. He is an excellent cook and is always trying new recipes for us to enjoy. Plus I love watching him in the kitchen.

After we were done eating together and he left for work, I went ahead to do some chores around the house. It took me three hours to realize that he forgot to turn the stove off.

Now, the old me would have been pretty upset about this. I can easily picture myself texting him something like, "Love, you forgot about the stove...again". I can see myself reminding him of his mistake as soon as he comes home from work tonight, and even talking about it again in the future. Because the old me would have been fine reminding her husband of his failures. But what good would that do?

I have a bad temperament that I am actively working on. In the early days of our marriage, my husband taught me to always ask myself, "What is really worth fighting for?" and to pick my battles carefully.

So this morning, instead of being the ugly old me, I just decided to turn the stove off myself and to go on with my day. And he doesn't need to hear about it at all because it is not worth it. It is just not worth going my old ways. The time I would spend nagging and complaining is much better spent doing something productive!
