Communication is such an important part of life, and you're right it is amazing that we have personal relationships that don't fall to pieces, especially across the gender line. I'm often curious as to why my wife asked my opinion on things like what she should wear, where we should eat et cetera.

Her: Where should we eat? Me: I'm up for anything. Her: Please just pick somewhere. Me: At this point I will name four different restaurants of different varieties Her: No, none of those sound good how about "X"?

It's obvious to me that she had "X" in mind the entire time, why don't you start out there?

I can't figure it out, but I continue to play along.
