'Am I pretty?' No answer leads Texas woman to assault husband, police say

“The man claimed he did not answer Ramirez because he could not hear her, which made the woman angry, the newspaper reported.”

You’re right Indy Anna, silence is better.

I only wonder what she would have done to him if he did answer her question?

You made me think of a commercial, actor portraying Abe Lincoln in a room, actor portraying Mary Todd Lincoln in a fashionable-for-mid-1860's dress with hoop sashayed in & asked "does this make my (behind) look big?"

Found it! GEICO:

“Honest Abe” in Commercial Culture | Living Lincoln


Possibly their relationship was unraveling prior to this event?

LOL. I remember that commercial. Too funny!

Unraveling, hah, you’re too nice

Do we have any odds on their staying together?!

So the answer is " Yah, hon, you are pretty....but maybe a tad too aggressive..."

JMHO, their relationship may, uhm, resemble a revolving door....

I'd say 50-50.
If he'd answered her honestly, 0 chance. IMO
One word of advice to the man: don't give her a gift certificate for a total body make-over for her birthday.
