She Divorced Me Because I Left Dishes by the Sink

By Matthew Fray
Jan 25, 2017


All the sudden, it’s not about something as benign and meaningless as a dirty dish.

Now, it’s a meaningful act of love and sacrifice, and really? Four seconds? That doesn’t seem like the kind of thing too big to do for the person who sacrifices daily for me.

I don’t have to understand WHY she cares so much about that stupid glass.

I just have to understand and respect that she DOES.


  • Then, caring about her = putting the glass in the dishwasher.
  • Caring about her = keeping your laundry off the floor.
  • Caring about her = thoughtfully not tracking dirt or whatever on the floor she worked hard to clean.
  • Caring about her = taking care of kid-related things so she can just chill out for a little bit and not worry about anything.
  • Caring about her = “Hey babe. Is there anything I can do today or pick up on my way home that will make your day better?”
  • Caring about her = a million little things that say “I love you” more than speaking the words ever can.


Yes, It’s That Simple

The man capable of that behavioral change — even when he doesn’t understand her or agree with her thought-process — can have a great relationship.
