She's a keeper. You're lucky. She's letting you know what irritates her, and how to avoid aggravating her again and also providing a way to make it up to her. This is the way to a harmonious life.

    "happy wife happy life" seems so.. antiquated though.

    edit i think my viewpoint might be because my parents were both born in the early 1950s and very much reinforce the "boomer" stereotypes. i think both people in a partnership should be happy, to be clear.

    the only antiquated part is 'wife.'

    Happy Spouse, Happy House

    There's truth in the saying though, since doing something nice to someone else feels good. And if that someone is a loved one, who you likely spend a lot of your time with/around, then that feeling is amplified.

    Also it's much more fun to spend time with people who are in a good mood than them being in a sour one.

    He isn't a keeper though, how the fuck do you eat chocolate in a way where it gets all over where you're eating it? I've had chocolate and just about any other food while in bed and black out drunk and never gotten any stains on the bedclothes.
