You know that annoying man in the grocery store? The one who clearly has a list and is also on his cell phone asking his wife ridiculous questions and reading sizes and prices to her rather loudly?
That might be my husband. I apologize.

#MarriedLife

i grew up with women who were all adverse to tech. I know that's not universally true. It's my anecdote. My experience. My mom could operate a desktop for her job but abandoned that years ago in favor of smart phones. My sister is the same.

In high school and college there just weren't a whole lot of women into laptops and PCs and fixing things. The women in my Bible study were pretty tech averse, as were the ones in my engineering orgs. They could use a laptop but no interest in diagnosing issues. they mostly paid me to do that.

So @AllKeysGDS was a revelation. She asks me if i know how to do things instead of the other way around.

I can ask her to set up our new printer and not have to walk her through it. Or ask her to download drivers on a PC, or lookup directions in Waze while I'm driving.

It's all small, menial things, but i literally get blank stares when i ask my family members to do these things.

My wife knows more about Nintendo Switch firmware than i ever hope to.

She's the one who taught ME how to build Desktop PCs

She's exactly what i yearned for in this and a dozen other ways: an equitable partner. Not a leader, not a follower. A peer. A lover.

I'm still the luckiest man alive to have found her.

cant believe this is 12 years old
Wife, fighting a sneeze: My nose is twitching.
Me: If you were the Elongated Man that would mean you sniffed crime nearby!
W: Elongated man?
Me: yeah, he's a second string DC hero...
W: *Elongated Man*?
[Pause]
Me: Well of course it sounds stupid when you say it like *that*.
W: Like what?
Me: You know...out loud.

Recurring internal debate about whether i post my actual #sex/#kink/#BDSM/#Thirsty #MarriedLife thoughts and experiences here (w/ CWs and shit) or make a new account for that and deal with literally yelling into the void while i try to gain followers on a new profile

Or... perhaps i turn "Hot Consensual Salt" into an NSFW blog to stand next to howdoyouspell.cool/sodiumreact
