Yesterday we were talking about how some women can be so homely that they look like a man dressed like a woman. My 15 year old daughter said "Yea, like your ex." My husband became defensive and said. "Do you always have to be insulting?" We haven't been married long, so the testing time is still going between these two. So the fight was on with her being tacky and him telling her she was being rude and me telling her to quit being hateful. Then he was angry with me because I giggled a little at her quick wit with the opening remark and the fact that I didn't outright tell her to shut up. But after him defending his ex's beauty of 20-25 years ago, all I could think was that he still loves her, so I was trying to curb my thoughts so that this didn't come out in a family discussion.Was he just defending his taste of 25 years ago and correcting my daughters insulting dry sense of humor, or is he truely still having fond memories of his ex so much so that he feels that he has to defend her?
