It'll become another example of his lack of emotional skills. Perhaps I'll even look back and laugh affectionately about it.... someday.
I'll even try to think about what he was trying to say while trying to ignore how he said it.
And I won't give him a lesson of what it feels like to hear the truth. It might feel good short term but is hardly likely to improve matters long term. :(
(And Kara Lynne, you're right. My husband's IQ is in the genius range, but he is unbelievably literal in emotional matters.)
