Hello fellow men, I am desperately in need of improving my “finding stuff” skills. Surely you’ve seen the memes about how husbands can’t find anything, well that’s me now. I seem to be getting worse at it over time and it is starting to be an actual problem in my marriage. Wife is at her wit’s end, it infuriates her and depresses me every time it happens. I am resolved to at least improve this if not outright fix it completely. Anyone had any success with this? Edit to elaborate: It isn’t that I am constantly having this problem, just occasionally, usually when something is not where it is supposed to be or some other thing is out of order. The most recent example is, wife couldn’t find her hoodie. I offer to help and go look in the car. I look in every seat, on the floor, under each seat, in the trunk. Even unlikely places like the glove box and door cubbies. This is a rental car on a trip so it is completely uncluttered. Literally nothing else is in the car, not even dirt. Well lo and behold, once we have given up and assumed one of our friends mistakenly walked off with it, she finds it when we get in the car to leave. On the floor of the front passenger seat, just laying there in plain view. Now I’m racking my brain as to how I missed this? First of all I was looking for the gray and white hoodie she wears 99.99% of the time, but it was a pure black one she only wears on special occasions like this trip. On a black carpet. In the shade. While I was wearing sunglasses on an extremely sunny day. I realize I am making excuses here, but like, I know I still should have seen the thing there. I 100% had to have looked right at it.
