(I am trying to lose a bit of weight before my wedding, but I tend to have somewhat poor impulse control, foodwise. My fiancé knows this, as I have asked for his help to keep me on track. I am at his mother’s house for lunch one day, and I see that she has made brownies for us. Trying to be good, I cut a piece in half and offer one piece to my fiancé.)
Fiancé: “I was going to have a whole piece, actually.”
Me: “Oh, okay.” *picks up the second half along with my half*
Fiancé: “But if it will help you stay on track…” *takes his half back*
Me: *disappointed* “Oh… But you wanted more!”
Fiancé: “Yes, but I also want to help you with this! You did ask me to, you know.”
Me: “Yes… but I didn’t want you to actually do it!”
Fiancé: “Um…”
Me: “Yeah, you know, I want you to help me by supporting me letting me do whatever I want!”
(I ended up with only the half brownie.)
