Ain't that the truth?

For what it's worth, this situation makes for a great learning experience. Sounds like hubby got carried away and lost track of you, which left you no alternative but to cry foul and then try to make the best of a less than ideal situation. I'm beginning to think this happens to everyone who plays together as a couple at some point - that it's a lifestyle hurdle of sorts. How do we stay on the same page? Chances are you can both look at the evening, figure out where things began to go haywire, and determine how to avoid the situation in the future.

For whatever else it's worth, it sounds like you handled yourself well. You maintained your boundaries, without drama, and played the best hand with the cards you were dealt. You also seem to be open to figuring out how to get a better draw next time around, rather than throwing in the towel.

Thanks for posting.
