No problem, honey

Consider it a sweet dream or a real-life nightmare:

Here, one man details what happened when he did everything his wife said for a month.

It's a daunting premise, especially when I consider all the suggestions I'd concoct if I was on the wife's end of the deal.

(Hint: Many home-cooked meals and reality TV reruns would be involved.)

But I think the experiment touches on a valuable lesson:

Sure, an occasional fight can be healthy, but we tend to devote too much energy to tiny relationship battles. You don't have to win all the time.

Sometimes it's best to just sit back, say "OK" and vow to genuinely consider your significant other's perspective at the end of the day.

So...I get the remote control tonight. Right, honey?
