My wife hit me with a comfort test a few nights ago. She pulled the "I feel like an inadequate wife, mother, and home owner" and in my head I wanted to say "hell fucking yah, thanks for noticing" but I employed some of the WISNIFG learning and just probed... "why do you feel that way", etc.. etc..
Basically I STFU and just probed her instead of trying to justify or start an argument
I know deep down inside she wanted me to play the old "Honey your amazing, don't even think like that" and give her a hug/kiss. The truth is; besides keeping our kids clothed and fed which I can easily do, and DO multiple times a week, she is just bringing no value anywhere else.
Just looking for some insight & thoughts.. Played it right? Should I have just lied and passed a easy comfort test?
