She's a keeper. You're lucky. She's letting you know what irritates her, and how to avoid aggravating her again and also providing a way to make it up to her. This is the way to a harmonious life.

this is the correct comment
Or she came up with a goal--and an annoyance to help drive it.
this is the fucked up comment
this is the meow meow comment. meow!
"happy wife happy life" seems so.. antiquated though.
edit i think my viewpoint might be because my parents were both born in the early 1950s and very much reinforce the "boomer" stereotypes. i think both people in a partnership should be happy, to be clear.
How so? I derive great joy from bringing joy to my loved ones. Love and happiness is greater when shared with others.
There's truth in the saying though, since doing something nice to someone else feels good. And if that someone is a loved one, who you likely spend a lot of your time with/around, then that feeling is amplified.
Also it's much more fun to spend time with people who are in a good mood than them being in a sour one.
See I missed that...I'm also divorced

Don't buy fabrics you can't wash. Seems kinda dumb.
Duvets usiually have duvet covers. The chocolate probably either went through the cover or it's a button up duvet cover and got in.
The throw is what is unwashable. Dumb though, just wash it anyways or spot clean.
You can wash duvets.
People are capable of being annoyed by something but still make peace with their feelings and get on with their day.
Can some people not do this?
Not to mention that their partner is annoyed, but that doesn't mean they suddenly don't love them any more.
People weirdly paint each other as black and white, completely this or completely that, and don't consider maturity and complexity. It's odd.
Yes, there are people that can't do that.
I know someone who received a phone call in the morning to ask if they were actually cool with their husband taking a trip across the country with him. Ruined her whole day. Couldnt go to work because she didnt want to cry in the office. She knew about the vacation and was fine with it. Still not entirely sure how that ruined her day, but it did.

Pick your weapon, we meet at dawn.

I dunno she pretty clearly said she’s annoyed which sounds like a description of how angry she is
But how do I read these subtle hints, can't she just tell me how she's feeling?
i wonder how much extra stress access to instant non-verbal communication has added to humanity. like for thousands of years you could only talk to someone face to face or wait three months for a letter to arrive. we never really had to try and translate someone's intent without the aid of vocal tone and body language until pretty recently.

see, this is why we millienials throw so many lols into our text communication. so people know it's not super serious lol.
People who eat in bed are just animals.
My girlfriend got mad during sex the other day because she rolled over on her belly to change positions and CRUNCH potato chips I left in bed.
You are an animal if you eat crisps in bed.
Dude I'll eat a whole pizza in bed. I don't care at all.

She was so mad about the chocolate, her mind immediately went to drinking.

When did she say she was mad??
Well sometimes some people don't say directly that they're mad but say things like "I'm annoyed"
She’s annoyed but not mad. She wants to be acknowledged but not fight. It’s not a big deal if you say I’m so sorry about that and move on.
Bonus points if you buy a new throw.
She set clear expectations, so the communication is there. I would set down a plastic mat next time before eating a chocolate bar on the bed.
by the time someone tells you directly they are annoyed by something you have done, it’s gone past the “ i don’t like it but i’m going to just deal with it” stage.
it's assumed that a woman is always mad at their male partner unless they are actively doing something to make her happy.
it's a relationship trope.
and by mad not really angry, so much as dissatisfied.
Husband here.
Sometimes relationships end up with one "tidy one" and one "messy one".
I busted my ass over the years to turn from a gremlin into a "tidy one".
I got married to my "messy one". She's in charge of keeping the house clean.
I have to remind her not to eat in bed 🥲
Ok. I'm going to help you out. I'll take your messy wife, and I'll also be messy with her. We'll eat chocolate in bed. We'll leave trash in the shower. And burp in the car.
And you can take my wife.
Also, I'm not married.

She never even said she's mad.
Annoyed < mad
So let me get this straight. People complain when their gf gets mad over little things like chocolate in bed. They also complain when she doesnt. Wtf?
Wish my wife would tell me if something bothered her this calmly instead of bottling it up until she bursts and gets angry. Im no better just to be clear.

This is easy, just send one loving emote to reply. 💖
Maybe he ate the chocolate off of her body, so that’s why she is not mad, just annoyed it made a mess.
I genuinely don't see how this is confusing
