my biggest problem with the whole situation is my complete lack of noticing this... It's pretty nice to know she's got my back...

I gleamed a few insights from this...

1. She can handle these situations without my help. She didn't panic, roll the window down and yell at me etc...

2. Her comfort with firearms is going up (always a plus)

3. She handled a pretty stressful situation with a real calm.


now if i could only get her to take the CHL course i'd be in business...
I'd give it a few more months of this SA game, and taking her shooting before she completely understands.

And #4: She made all the correct decisions.

Re: wife makes a situational awareness read, that impresses me.

This does not surprise me at all.

While the SA/alertness game may be "new" to your wife...I have found that Females tend to "read" a situation better (and faster) than men do.

Females generally have better "intuition" than males, use both sides of the brain to sort things out, communicate better, etc...

With a little more practice, you won't stand a chance against her.

Once they finally decide to go into survival mode, they are very good at it.
