    It helps also to have active curiosity. As she's working through her next retort, ask yourself why she might have an objection.

    I thought your description - even though you are understandably frustrated - was very sweet; you are clearly inlove with your wife.

    I got all the above dead-ends to questions from my mother; it drove me mad. But when she was ready, she started asking me questions, instead of the other way round. Hang in there.

    You could always print of the criteria for truth as presented at the 2012 DC. Then you could mention how saying that there was no FDS "class" used to be a DF'ing offense. There is a WT article about how foolish it was to say that there was no FDS "class." Things like that can plant a seed.

    I don't know what 'having hospitality' means?

    How about some Golden Age zingers, like x-rays will harm your grandchildren?

    Hospitality is where the service group meets at someones house for a big pot-luck type ordeal where they all get to encourage one another by talking about how bad christendom and apostates are.

    Jgnat, your comment made me laugh. I have the same thing with my husband about his work. He cannot tell me about many parts of his work to (if he told me what he did, he would have to kill me, lol). It makes dinnertime conversation.... .Interesting. I have to pretend I am interested in....whatever it is that he is doing.
