I am fighting a losing battle. There is nothing I can do to overcome the “composite husband.” I am sure you have met him or at least parts of him. He is made up of the most admirable attributes of all the men my wife knows. Some are good people. Some she has written off. They all have something to add.
One guy takes his wife out to eat all the time. The same guy never buys presents for any occasion. Another one is great at working in the yard. The problem is he won’t take a stand on any issue. Then there is the handy man who fixes everything before it knows it needs fixing. Of course he also spends money like he wishes he had it.
One consolation is that I will never really have to compete because old Mr. Composite, if he ever shows up, will already be married. Of course his wife might be nagging him with my sterling qualities. We don’t have time to list them all today.
