The fertilizer is such that produces pests, such as gnats. So now, we gnats flying an 1/8 inch from your eyes and nose, with every so often breathing one into your nose. The next time she builds plotted plants, she uses the same products again. She also refuses to correct the problem. Apparently it is now my job.Why is intimacy to her means describing every minute detail of a subject matter, down to the pin point accuracy, like noticing a stain under the flap of the collar?Why is physical intimacy always a man’s job? Problem is, the man has to hear how he has sex on the brain.When there is a slow down in the romance department, why is it that when a man brings gifts, or does something special, she automatically sees he wants sex, and that she feels like a piece of meat? I think guys hear and experience enough of this, they no longer become interested in there partner.How can a man speak to a woman so she is not offended and feel as if this change will change her as an individual?

 "You Just Don't Understand! Women and Men in Conversation" by Deborah Tannen PhD. Good stuff in there! Women want context, men want result, with summary only if needed...
I can't help with the shopping/potted plants though. I guess they are the straws, eh? Pick your battles, I guess.
I hear you, and I'm quite sure my husband has several gripes about me!

 Why is it that a man would put up with this?
Why is that people can forget that they are a whole person in charge of their own lives and not simply one half of a couple?
Why is it that people moan and yet do nothing to change the things they moan about?
Put your foot down!
You don't like the food? Buy your own.
Don't like the woman? Get divorced.
Don't like your life? Change it.
