What a delightful conversation :-) I just love their parrying and obvious enjoyment of verbal sparring with each other. I bet this is a marriage that continues on and on because neither person is ever the least bit bored with the other :-)
People who are always sappy sweet with each other make me a bit suspicious... Brooke

Great use of dialogue and banter of two married people...so true in many ways. I am still interested as to what he pulled "last night"... Great job.

Round and round we go for so many years. But I wouldn't change a thing with my wife. It's worked for nearly thirty-five years now.
Nicely done my friend... John

I know, us women are always trying to change our man, and he just wants to be loved for who he is. Had to laugh at this little conversation. If only we would listen to ourselves sometime and see how foolish we sound!

This is very well written and humorous. I like how you used the required starting line as a springboard to a completely different topic of conversation. Nicely done. Good luck in the contest.

She knows him well. He must think he must have deserved some of it, otherwise he would still not be that mad. She is smart enough not to keep defending herself. She is smart, keep it until his anger does not reflect his attitude towards the object. Great work. Good luck with the contest.

Comment from Evelyn Fort Stewart
It's really important all of us realize and acknowledge that God created each one different with their own purpose in life. We are made to work together, not take over another being. Very interesting piece and unfortunately they way it is too many times. God loves you and so do we.

Comment from judiverse
This is well written and the dialogue is witty, kind of the Noel Coward variety. I have no idea what the man pulled that was objectionable. The couple seems to be in the habit or arguing over whatever, maybe a battle to prove superiority. Love the conclusion with the traditional cup of tea being requested. I think you might have given a few more clues as to who's speaking. judiverse

I think of it more like mental arm wrestling than a battle. Too harsh...Thanks.

Hi, Deniz. You're so welcome. As I wrote, it reminds me of some of the Noel Coward comedies. judi
