I will give my 2 cents
I have been married for 29 years Helped raised 4 boys, two of which are in the service
1 handicap.

Relationships are tough.
One thing I have learned is what men and women fight about is not what you are fighting about.
Ask yourself that the next time, you will see.

On the guy side
he might be grumpy because he had not gotten it lately
so that grumpiness comes out in a negative response about something else.
The women just gets mad because you acted stupid about that response.

So hense the dance starts. If we would just learn how to tell our partner we want more sex it will work
if you talk about her girlfriends husband and tell your wife to share with her girlfriend that he is just grumpy about the sex.
My wife would say, he would have gotten it he he just didn't loose it mentally.

I would gently say, if the sex came at right intervals he would not get grumpy and things would work fine.
eventually it would come out, does all men feel that way?
I would say yes. so My point came accross in a non threating way.

On the girl side.

if she is complaining about fishing, it is not the fishing.
she could be feeling stagnated, not that you spend time working but if you have an issue, ask them there opinion. Women like to talk about things and look into the future.

Women do want to be in charge, it is the mothering effect.
So before you buy a boat, ask her what color is her favorite boat
eventually you can work into it.
If you are havng trouble at work, ask her how she would handle it.

The guy before talks about having to leave at moments notice to fish because ofweather and such,
If you come across worried and explain what you are worried about not being able to fish because of it,she will understand. She needs to see the same level of committment and excitement to her.

ASk for help with your hobby, even beg. All she wants is your time. She does deserve it.
When she walks into a room you should smile. Tell her you LOVE her and don't go for it
After all she is your life partner. You wash and pamper that boat.
can you Treat her the same way that you treat your fishing gear. With Respect and Love
After all, You want her to be your life partner.
Food for Thought.
Just my opinion and sorry for the long response.
Life is too short to worry about the small stuff.
I hope this helps someone
