Suffer in silence?

Are you like me who suffers in silence or like my hubby who grunts and moans when he is moving around. I know he is in pain and love him to bits and will do anything for him but he is driving me mad.

It is even a pleasure to go out shopping now, I get in the car and give out a big sigh the silence is golden.

Bet you think I am awful.

Not awful in the slightest :) xx I find that I will whinge for Britain if I have the teeniest little cut but when it is a big deal, silence is golden.

I notice that it is all the ladies that are moaning. Us poor men have to put up with partners that never, ever stop talking. How would you cope then?

Big sigh, Bobby, life is hard for you!! A monastery where the monks observe silence, and absolutely no nuns!!

I don't think so Polly. Research revealed that women have to speak 3,000 more words a day than men. Proven fact. I rest my case.....cos it's getting heavy

Why do women speak more than men - to try and get the point they are making into deaf ears and an argumentative mind.
