I've got lots of advice SS but in the interest of my own peace & quiet I'll keep it to myself.

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

Is this a control issue? Is there something missing here?? With the info presented, I'd have to go just to make a point. In the reverse, I'd want my wife to have a good time, wouldn't want to stop her fun just because I didn't want to go. Now if you get in trouble with the beer or ladies at these things typically, welllll thats another story.

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

I don't know weather or not you can make her happy now. You said you were going and that is bad enough for a woman's wrath. My ex-wife was famous for saying “we’ll be there” and then not going and forbidding me to go or there would be hell to pay. That crap got old and I found myself avoiding situations like that and missing a lot of good times. <br />Not to rub it in but my current wife for the last 6 years is very cool. We have 2 kids under 4 1/2 and a band came to the Inner harbor I wanted to see. Well the baby sitter was busy and she wasn't really into it that night so she just said “you have to go.” Left the house around 6pm. Took the boat to the harbor and hooked up with a couple other boats and watched the concert (from the boat). Then hung out at the harbor, went for a ride, hung out at the local spot then went t home. 3:30 AM is when I walked through the door. Never a unkind word just interest on how the night turned out and kept the kids quiet so I could sleep in. It is now a night I will never forget unlike with my ex it would be a night I hope she would forget about ASAP. <br /> The damage is done. It is now up to you if it will get better or worse if you go and why she is dead set against you going without her. <br /> Two things to get you out of trouble with a women that always work are movies and shoes.

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

I think roscoe has the right idea. If you want her to talk to you again, buy a bigger boat and go off on a week long fishing trip. She will be trying to get you on the cell phone in no time. Plus I am sure she will have plenty to say about the bigger boat. Just tell her, honey I guess you should have paid more attention to me. :D

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

Geesh? Lots of advice and response. Smackin her is something that she may enjoy, but I won't go there. This is a family sight plus that is none of your business. Sorry!<br /><br />I think her main problem is that she has never had the chance to experience a party like this. She said she has never been to a concert. I want her to go, but with me working, I feel that she won't enjoy herself as much. <br /><br />I did get a call a little bit ago to confirm that I was going to be there with the truck. He is having a dozer come in and build up a mound and to clear some trees for better shots with the cameras. So it is a done deal... I WILL BE GOING!<br /><br />Now for some good news. The band is going to play for the workers Friday night. Surpose to be a pre party just to make sure everyone is still able to drink, oops I mean it is to make sure everything works right. So I'm taking her that night. At least she will get to hear the music. The host said he might be able to find a job for her to work. I'm not sure if she would like that idea or not. Just got to wait till later after she gets off work and then out of school.<br /><br />Oh BTW, she doesn't care much for chocolate, she just gives it to the grandkids. Flowers? I think they end up in my salad that she makes me eat!<br /><br />Uh Carphunter, No neighbors nearby have wives that spins my prop! YUK! <br /><br />And for the idea of a bigger boat? The one I have now is just a tad to big to tow around now!<br /><br />Thanks to all...... :D

Say the mens prayer <br />--------------------------------------<br />I'm a man<br />I can change<br />If I have too<br />I Guess?<br />--------------------------------------<br />Now with your bases covered<br />Go do what you want! :D <br /><br />Seriously its a non issue here<br />If one of us wants to go somewhere we ask the other and there are four answers<br /><br />A: Sure (meaning they would like to)<br />B: Nope (meaning YUCK or have something else to do)<br />C: If you really want my company (meaning I'm not hot on the idea but wouldn't mind spending time with you)<br />D: Whats in it for me? (Meaning No its not my first choice but yes I want your company too but you have to bribe me IE:hot coco, milkshake, Dinner etc)<br /><br />Last night when MrsLink asked me if I wanted to go to a lecture on global climate change Wednesday night I answered D... and bartered for black berry pie with ice cream afterwords.<br /><br />Today when I found out it was going to be a Democrat Professor from the University of Washington I called and change my answer to B but I will miss my pie :(

Yup!<br />Alright SS, just how many times has your wife had to watch you drueling over the taters?<br />It's a control issue for sure. <br />But it's also a peri-menopausal/feelings of inadequacy/resentment because she remembers that party 27 years ago and you don't, kind of issue also. :rolleyes: <br /><br />You'll have to tread lightly here SS.

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

Uh Hem...There comes a time in every life wherein one must say to ones self that they have taken just about enough of rock music, rap music country music, loud music, elevator music, black people, white people, short people, handy capable people, democrats, republicans, co workers, rich people, poor people, smart people, dumb people, etc. and say "hey, why don't you go F yourself right up your A. I have a life here to live, and you are quickly amounting to little more than sewage in this great enterprise in which I am engaged, so please go F yourself, and have a great and blessed and fruitful life while your at it."<br /><br />It may sound a little fowl and rough around the edges, but it works for me. Dude, you live all of your life for others, you don't live any for yourself, and we aren't freakin Gandy are we?<br /><br />Go do this thing. If it is that big a deal for her, maybe she will do you a favor, (insert favor here).<br /><br />I wish you the best in this hoss. I have been through the fire, and it burned me bad. Hope you come out a little crispy than me. Sounds like your doing a lot better than me to begin with so there is always hope for you. Not for me.....

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

Well, we had our discussion last night. There is a new twist to this coming weekend. The health care system that she works for is shutting down one of their small hospitals. Now all those employees that have seniority will be placed in the main hospital. All "On Call" employees will not be placed onto the schedule. This means that my wife now has to do her own "On Call" duty. Sooooo guess what? This coming weekend is her weekend to be "on call"! She did find someone willing to take Friday night for her so that she can make the Pre party on Friday. At least she WANTS to attend that. So things are going smoothly again here on the homefront.<br /><br />Soulwinner, Your right about the part of getting tired of lots of things. I've got to the point of growing out of the music and drinking stuff. (Actually I don't care to be around a bunch of loud obnoxious drunks with bad hearing) This Benefit is something that I am doing for the Boy Scouts and my friend. I will not be drinking either night since I will be in the bucket truck. Booze and heavy machinery don't mix. Being 48 I have never had a DUI and I don't plan to ruin my record now. <br /><br />Now for the tater shots.....Hey, I'm like just about every man, I'm gonna look if they show em! I just might have to email some pics out of the party if anyone is interested.<br /><br />Thanks for the input. Mrs Mayfloat and I was able to resolve this problem without screaming and throwing things. It is good to sit down and communicate with one and another. It does work. Thanks again.....

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

Unless my wife could come up with a VERY good reason that she didn't want to go or that I shouldn't go, I'd just kiss her bye and say 'see ya later.' She'll either get over it or she won't... there it is. Anyway.. however you resolve the situation.. put me on the email list for the tater shots.. :)

Re: Wife is mad, What do I do?

Why all the hate SW :confused: <br /><br />My religion teaches the opposite that I have seen you preach here,............and I consider myself a Christian.<br /><br />You seem like such an unhappy person there SW. There are many things that make me angry, but I sure don't let my anger over those things control me or change me. Live life to the fullest brother, 'cause we ain't really here that long.<br /><br />BTW, My "smackin" comment was just a joke, like 99% of what I post here.

SW, Make sure you don't keep poking the fire that burned you. Just let that fire go out, smear on some lotion and find a new campsight.
