[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Candiace should not get married. She is spoiled, and she and her fiancé obviously want different things. If she goes through with the wedding, I predict a divorce in less than three years.[/quote]

Agreed.  They are a very strange couple. Although she does seem spoiled, I didn’t like the way he said he would continue to “check her” when she was out of line.  [/quote]

But she *is* out of line - all the time.  He didn't mean physically, he meant he would call her out whenever she acted like a spoiled brat.  Which appears to be often.  If I were him, I would run far and fast and find a woman who will be happy with him just as he is.  He will never measure up in her eyes.[/quote]

I think the opposites attract is their storyline.  I do agree with the PP that I didn’t like the way he said he would continue to “check her” when she was out of line ...like it is his job or something.  If you really feel that you need to monitor your partner’s behavior and keep them in check, perhaps you should consider that’s not the person for you.  I see that as being different than standing up for yourself in a relationship.

I also think that you don’t handle something like that in public with other people around. That amplifies the issues and puts someone on the defensive when you address stuff like that in front of other people.  For example, I’m very sensitive about someone telling a story about me in a big group where I’m the butt of the joke - etc.  My grandmother was one to say in every joke there is a grain of truth so I don’t want the perception of dizzy or whatever it may be to be the entertainment of the evening.  So in private, after the fact, I asked DH not to do that again.  My thought is if you want to make someone the butt of the joke because it’s just so much fun, use your own self.  In the moment with other people around I didn’t call him a name or try to get back at him by doing the same.  I may have changed the subject or asked a question to move to another topic in the larger group then had a discussion about it later in private.  I’m sure Chris could have found a better way to address being asked to hold a pocketbook for her to go to the restroom while his hands were full and address the whole thing later.[/quote]
