This goes to show you just why women are full of it. They claim they want honesty, but if you ever answer the question "does this make my butt look fat?" with a "of course, it IS fat" you will never hear the end of it...

That was a poor move, but given your nicotine starved state its not that unexpected.

In the future, remember the golden rule of marriage...even if your wife is a cow, never call her or insinuate that she is, fat. The rule also applies to women and men's hair loss.

Apologize, blame it on the nicotine...rinse, repeat.

Apologize profusely and tell her it was the nicotine dprevation speaking and it will not happen again.

Women want to feel good about themselves more than they want honesty. With them it's all about the emotions.

Screw that. As males, we need to always appologize. Plus, we have to accept the crap that our significant others tell us, etc. Heck, I think my wife now has permanent PMS ... good thing she wasn't near the garage wall last evening after slamming me and then going back inside - or, things that I was throwing would have hit her.

I would not appologize to the wife. Let her live with the comment for a few days.

Sometimes to let others find the humor in your misfortune lets your
misfortune have a meaning.

This thread Does your wife know about your flatulence? Was a parody of another thread.



Now for an update...

I am either the luckiest guy in the world or the sh!t is going to hit the fan.

I come home from work and my evening meal is prepared as always and quite tasty.

Rib-eye and vegies.

My wife says "I completely understand your comment last night andwhy you said it ", and then
she promptly leaves for her bridge club.

WTF




:confused:

I don't really think you did anything wrong. What you said sounds just like a joke to me. Women however, like to overreact. Quitting smoking is really really hard, and her to talk about it like that doesn't help much.

And BTW, by "Bridge Club" she means sexual affair involving someone(s) other than you. Best of luck. ;)

That was your cue to apologize. Did u not pick up on that? Yes, Bridge Club means she's going to a speed dating event for divorced women. :)
