825 I’m 66 and my wife Donna pointed out that I fix things around the house the morning after every argument. Not because I’m avoiding the conversation. Because in my family, repair was always physical. You didn’t say sorry. You replaced the broken shelf. You re-grouted the tiles. You showed up with actions because words were a foreign language nobody in the house had learned to speak.
