Is your DH nicer than you?

GASuzuki · September 2009

MINE IS! I know Home Depot is going to try and get away with its rotten behavior, and I am worried my DH is going to accept their excuses. Most of the time his kind and patient demeanor is a plus, but here, I am totally worried that he is going to let the bastards make excuses!!!! He assured me he would take care of it, but my fingers are itching to dial them up and ream them a new a-hole.

Most definitely. No question about it.

TrumpetBride · September 2009

Oh yes. I'm the b!tch and DH is the nice guy for sure.

tarebear9891 · September 2009

Yes he is much more laid back than me. He avoids confrontation at all costs.

Miss.Modular · September 2009

yes. lol. why dont you call? i always handle stuff like this and get my way! haha

MikeysNattie · September 2009

at times.

I'm nicer in general, but he's one to bend over and take it if we're being screwed by a company. I'm still holding a grudge over how he handled our HVAC bill. *shakes head*

Much.

Mrs.State746 · September 2009

Yes, he is a push over. LOL. I've been trying to work on him. He has a split personality though I swear. His work personality and his NON-work personality.

He's a cop and leaves that at work when he's home. He's NOT a push over when working.

KamiSuzanne · September 2009

Oh yea, he takes everything with a grain of sand, and I get pissy.

Not necessarily nicer, but definitely more easy going so he doesn't get all riled up as easily as I do. There are times when I fear he's going to be too laid back about a situation such as yours. But then I don't know that my hooting and hollering would be anymore productive.

I wanted to, but he said, "Why don't you let me handle it?" in his "I'm stressed already so don't test me" voice. Ha... I told him to make sure they know that we wouldn't be afraid to take them and their ridiculous electrician to small claims if they continue to eff up. FREAKING HOME DEPOT!

Tony tends to run in opposite direction when I "have words" with people, he gives people the benefit of doubt too much.

No way, DH is a beast when it comes to customer service, but he is a beast in a good way. He is firm, logical, and persistent. I get frustrated way more easily.

He is on a first name basis with about half a dozen of the Mediacom reps. I can't wait until we have more options in the area.

But as a person, I am probably genuinely nicer. DH doesn't give no about anybody (except select members of his family).

newmama09 · September 2009

No, I'm nicer than him.

adamwife · September 2009

Always.

lzbflogrl · September 2009

yep

exhausted_bride · September 2009

LOL, he's a saint next to me. He's very patient, nice, friendly and will always give you the benefit of the doubt. He will go out of his way to help people and is an all around great human being. I, on the other hand am very untrusting and weary of people I don't know and rush to judgement way too often. I wish I could be more like him!

303jess303 · September 2009

Yes, yes and yes! haha My friends always say this!

LilMissLadybug · September 2009

Absolutely. I will assert myself and let people know if I'm not happy. He is very laid back and just lets me at it. We balance each other out. haha

LukyNLuv · September 2009

I think we are equal bitches

This exactly

britti<3 · September 2009

Much much much nicer. I have no patients for the general public, I don't laugh at people when they aren't funny (which in turns always makes them feel awkward), I don't put up with 'half-assed' things, and I have much higher expectations. I'm always sent to do the dirty work when something is wrong.

It's funny, DH gets along with anyone and everyone. He can sit there and make a person feel so good about themselves because he acts interested and gives feedback. I don't.

102503Natalie · September 2009

DH is more of a people person. I'm more of a compassionate, do good deeds for people behind the scenes. I think we're both nice in our own ways, but he tends to find more favor with people face-to-face b/c he's so darn likeable and outgoing. I'm more reserved and can sometimes come off as aloof or bitchy even though I'm not trying to be.
