Will he ever listen?

Every time I have suggested a new idea to Shannon, he seems to turn it down right away or it goes in one ear and out the other. Plus, it doesn’t help that he has ADD and I usually have to repeat myself 5 times (or more). LOL

I have a few examples of when he hasn’t listened to me and it’s more of a joke between us now. Back in early 2003, we had recently moved to Northern Nevada and we were both working at the same hotel/casino. I saw some brochures and I suggested that we go up to Virginia City on one of our weekends. He said no. Well, we had recently met a co-worker who was our age, who was also married. He and Shannon got along well since they both loved playing video games. LOL We had talked about getting together and do something outside of work. I suggested Virginia City to him and he then brought it up to Shannon and all of a sudden he was all for it. LOL

Most recently, we had an incident occur today. The week we moved in, Shannon had said that the dumpster is quite a distance away. Well, I saw where one of them is located and it’s about a street or two away within our complex. So I suggested that we use a black basket we have (it has wheels) to drop off our garbage when needed. Apparently he didn’t hear me because he came up with this (brilliant) idea today! LOL I told him he was an “idea stealer.”

Another incident happened today. Last week, we were talking about potty training our son. I told him that I have read that other parents tried the method of having their child wear no diapers at all! He immediately said no! Well, just today, he said a co-worker of his had her child wear no diapers at all and she did that for a week straight. Then I told him that I had suggested that already and he had turned it down! Sheesh! Another fantastic idea from me.

For some reason, he never listens to my ideas or suggestions even though they are pretty awesome! I am surprised he hasn’t learned his lesson yet…listen to your wife!

In conclusion, listen to your wives, girlfriends, and significant others because they know what they’re talking about.
