This could be a much longer story, but the short version is that my wife wanted to go to marriage counseling. I was suspicious because I thought things were going pretty well. I asked her why she wanted to go. She said, "To have someone available in case of a crisis." Okay, that's unlikely and kind of weird, but whatever. I agreed to go, though I was still suspicious that my wife actually did have a specific reason for wanting to go. I was suspicious because she does shit like that all the time - she is obviously upset about something and refuses to tell me what it is then I finally find out it's something I did like a month ago. Anyway, we're at the session yesterday - our second one - and lo and behold she brings up an episode we had 18 months ago and it was clear that was the thing she most wanted to address in counseling. Why not tell me that? Especially when I ask you specifically for the reason? Gotdamn I was so fucking pissed. I hate being ambushed like that.
(Oh, and the icing on the cake is that the therapist is a fat, unattractive, unsophisticated man-hater who was openly hostile towards me. Good times.)
