My wife told me my 'helpful' advice on her painting project was actually criticism

Tbh I always thought I was being supportive by pointing out brush strokes and color mismatches while she was painting our living room last weekend. She finally snapped and said 'I don't need a critique, I need a partner who hands me a beer and says it looks great.' How do you guys balance giving real feedback with just letting your partner do their thing?

That's REAL rough, man. Sometimes quiet support is the BEST kind of help.

Wait wait wait, am I the only one who just realized I've been doing this exact same thing to my husband?
