Same here. My wife, however, always reads WAY too much into things. Like if she asks me how my day's going and I don't answer in just the right tone of voice she thinks something's wrong. When I could just be tired or busy doing something and just give a short answer. Of course she says I don't talk to her enough but I've never really been a person who talks a lot.
But I never did understand why women always want someone to empathize with them rather than fixing the problem in the first place.
Your wife and I would get along great. I do that all the time. I talk way to much and I can solve my own problems after I vent about it to someone who cares.
