Sometimes we mean another thing when we say some words,I always say “I will do it later” when I mean I don’t want to do it or if you don’t do it then I will not do it.this will always get my spouse angry when we first started out ,now she knows me better and will never quarrel with me when I say I will do it later,are there times you have said things when in fact you mean the other way round?

yes, often times i would say that it is okay for me to work on some things at office (work assigned to me that i did not like doing at all) and i would tell my manager that it is okay for me to do it, etc...
also, if i say i will do it later, i will actually do it at a later time.. it does not mean though that i am procrastinating and has no intentions of doing it.

You'll have to understand where I am coming from! So many people used to do this to me, not just about doing something "later", but about whether or not they even wanted to be my friend! So it makes me not trust people so much when it happens that they are too cowardly to tell the truth! I am not saying that is what you are doing, since it seems that you mean your loved ones, like spouse, and that maybe you really think you will do it later?
