Okay, as a guy, I guess I'm unusual in that I'm the one in my marriage that is very emotionally straightforward and open. I even like to TALK about my feelings, FSM forbid!
Mrs. Hela is the exact opposite. She's like the stereotype of the typical guy in her emotional openness, or lack thereof.
Normally, this doesn't present much difficulty for us, as we've learned one another's styles. BUT....
It looks like Mrs. Hela's dad isn't going to be with us too terribly much longer (he's not diagnosed terminal or anything, but he's 87 and NOT a spry 87, either). I'm wondering how I should approach that when it happens, as I know Mrs. Hela will try to bottle everything up. Any advice?
