[QUOTE="Riah, post: 1969612, member: 330155"] I don't think we put too much on humor--sometimes, I feel like the world is undervaluing it, and lacking it in many areas, and relationships is one of those big areas. However...you have it. You just aren't the one providing the majority of it. What can you do that she can't? In a good relationship, the partner should be able to make up for your shortcomings, and vice-virsa. You shouldn't feel bad about it...that's just who you are, and your wife doesn't seem to mind, does she? I don't think this is really about humor...it's about the insecurities we all have in relationships..."Am I good enough?" I'd say yes, you're doing just fine. If your wife starts complaining that you're a grouch or something, THEN I would be worried. But why give yourself an unnecessary complex when the marriage appears to work fine? If you still can't figure it out...ask her what you bring to the relationship. Tell her your feelings, and let her tell you how she feels about it. Who better to ease your fears? [/QUOTE]
