Don’t Use Tired Or Busy As An Excuse
The Generous Husband
Most of us are doing way too much and not getting enough sleep. That makes it tempting to see “I’m too busy” or “I’m too tired” as a reason for not doing something we really don’t want to do. Thing is, when we do this we’re making an excuse. If we wanted to do whatever, we’d find the time and the energy. But rather than saying “I don’t want to do that” we pull out the busy card.
If you do this to your wife, she knows what you’re doing. And if you do it often, what it communicates to her is that she’s not that important to you. This has a chilling effect on your marriage and sets up a vicious cycle.
BTW, I addressed this idea over on The XY Code and mentioned that when women do this with sex their husbands know it’s an excuse and feel unloved because of it. If you don’t want to be on the receiving end of this, avoid doing it to your wife!
