    she said “couple of questions” but she asked 3. So the last one doesn’t count. Also, she married him, pretty sure this isn’t a new trait of him

      “Couple of” colloquially means “a small number of”. She married him and is now poking mild fun at him, not threatening divorce.

    obviously he adjusted his communication to be exactly as precise as her “hints” all day, she then intentionally reframed the situation to get support for “beeing innocent” while really beeing the one who has created the situation in the first place. standard gf behavoir, when the context is missing in her story, it is likely missing on purpose to hide exactly how she created the situation.

    If you ask multiple questions in one phrase my brain can’t handle it sorry

      I’ve noticed that with my partner with ADHD, and also my sister with ADHD. Neither can easily deal with multiple topics in one message. Curious.

      Honest question, if I have to ask for 3 pieces of information, would it help if I sent it in 3 messages?

      Message 1: how many people are coming to dinner?

      Message 2: are any vegetarian?

      Message 3: what time are they arriving?

      Personally I would prefer the 1 message with 3 questions vs the 3 messages with 1 question each(many messages in short time make me think something is wrong and urgent), what’s your preference?

        Nah for me 1 message is where it’s at, I was just joking. I like it when people send over one message with everything they need to tell or ask so I can respond without going into a back and forward, ESPECIALLY if I’m busy with work but not necessarily.

        I also ask multiple things in one message but people never ever take the time to respond to all of them… Fucking ever, it pisses me off lol, because I put effort into writing a coherent message then they just discard it most of the time :-/

    My take is that his single answer applies to them all, thusly:

    6 people are coming 6 of them are vegetarian 6 is when they are coming.

    He was conserving bandwidth.
