Sometimes we make up via email

May 6th, 2009

The other day Ryan and I got into a little tiff. (Hah! I love it when I get to use that phrase!)

Anyway, he started ranting about something; I offered my opinion of disagreement; he disagreed with my disagreement and continued ranting; I disagreed and began rolling my eyes; he interrupted me; I interrupted him; he assured me that if I quizzed 100 other people, they would agree with him; I accused him of having an unresolved issue from his childhood propelling what I viewed as an overreaction; he rolled his eyes and I walked away.

It was really stupid. We’d been having such a lovely day.

So, I sat at my computer and wrote an email:

Subject Line: I’m glad we still love each other…

Email text: …even when we think the other person is totally insane and irrational.

A few minutes later, I got a reply.

Subject Line: Re: I’m glad we still love each other…

Right. I’m glad he finally saw it my way.

Wait—

    Hahaha…I love it when they finally see things your way. Or where they can skillfully tell you it’s all your fault without you being aware of it. Either way, it’s all good, right?
