晚上我在和凯凯一起看橄榄球赛的时候,Helen来问我有没有吃晚饭。
我说没有。
我们就是这样完成今日挑战的 :-)
THE DARE: Demonstrate love by willingly choosing to give in to an area of disagreement between you and your spouse. Tell them you are putting their preference first.
Okay, this was pretty much a fail for both of us, because we didn't have any disagreements all day, which made it hard to complete the assignment.
Very late in the day, while Kai and I were watching the last football game of the day, Helen came in and asked whether I had dinner.
I told her that I hadn't.
She said, somewhat belligerently (which was quite out of character and somewhat confused me), something like, "Are you going to eat healthy food?" Then, before I could answer, she suddenly switched from the belligerent tone of voice to a very sweet one, put her head a little to one side and smiled girlishly, and said, "Actually, you can eat whatever you want."
I started laughing, and sure enough she confessed that she was trying to complete the assignment and had had to make up a fake argument. "The problem is," she told me, "we don't argue very much."
"Oh, yes we do," I said sternly, "we argue all the time!" Then, before she could answer, I smiled gently and said, "No, never mind, I will be generous and let you win: you're right, we DON'T argue very much."
And that's how we completed this day's dare.
What issue did you choose? The issue of whether or not we argue a lot.
What did giving in cost you? To be honest, nothing at all.
How will this help you in the future? You got me on that one. I'll just have to keep this dare on hold and complete it the next time we have a real argument.
