Who's showing black and white thinking here?
grrrr... That annoyed me too. I feel the need to convince him that if anything I spend too much time thinking in greyscale. I catastrophize, yes, but that's only one type of black and white thinking.
And he's always exasperated by my need for absolute precision in my words. He brings me cute little sayings he's heard, and I wrinkle my brow and refine them a bit. He says my versions may be more accurate but they lose their zing and effect. Then he smiles and chooses to be amused by my habitual behavior.
