A group of us talked about our husbands and how they sometimes don't seem to listen; instead, they say yes to whatever we are saying and later say, "What? I didn't agree to that?!" We were sharing tales and laughing in relief that we were not alone in having similar husbands in the yes game.
A recently married young woman chimed in, "My husband is the same," she started, "Several months ago, my husband and I were staying with a bunch of friends for a weekend in a house in the countryside. Upstairs there was a large dormitory, and as we were the last to enter, two twin beds literally on opposites of the room remained for us. Nothing could be done about it, so we said goodnight, crawled into our beds that felt miles apart, and went to sleep."
I wondered if she had missed the point of our comparing notes about our husbands when she added, "As I often do, I started blabbering in my sleep. The next morning at breakfast, our friends were having a good laugh as they told us that I was carrying on a nonsensical monologue the night before and that my husband on the other side of the room was responding to me in his sleep, saying, "Yes, yes, yes..."
Your stories always leave me smiling and happy and YES is the standard here too
Hugs

That "yes" is a demonstration of love, I think.

Very funny!
Just yesterday I was talking with a friend
about how blind men are. I was telling her about my husband thinking someone had taken something from our yard; so I went out and found it on the ground near where it had resided. He couldn't see it.
No wondering I am cleaning up after him, he just doesn't see it.
