Well my wife uttered those fatal words - Page 3

shilala · 10-04-2011, 11:29 AM

After Weeze asked me about going to Florida, while she was on her way to work while I sit home, she told me I need to go find a new car.
That's close enough to "cigar" that I think I'll just go buy a bunch of cigars. I can do that from my chair.

True, my wife has never asked "when will it stop"

She is stuck on "AGAIN" every time I place my order or get something in the mail...

The proper response is:

"Is that what you want to do today? Fight?"

I thought about this, but decided against it, then the new cutter arrived and she was gone, so I opened it up checked it out and put the receipt with my flat rate boxes (in case I need to send it back) and put it with my stash.

Way to do this is do more splits with guys so you can send funds via PooPal or Money Order.

This I would like to do, but no one I know out of here smokes...well my co-worker...hmmm will have to think about this.

That's sad. Very sad. On about a thousand nutless levels.
Granted, Liberty works both ways. My actions can't deny the Liberty of my wife and children.
I married well. My wife watches football with me constantly and makes sure our schedule works around it.
While I was typing she spun around and asked when I wanted to go to Florida to go diving.
I rest my case.

I HATE that frickin commercial

Thanks for the support guys....all will be ok, just needed some sympathy I guess.

As long as it is not interfering with the finances, what's the big deal?

I tell my wife that I am my own person, and I refuse to end activities that give me enjoyment just because she says so. This is why I still smoke cigars, ride my motorcycle, etc.

I had to explain it carefully, but when she understood that she was just being selfish, she stopped giving me grief completely. Now she half supports it, if it makes me happy.

My hero!

I need to know exactly what you said to her lol. Finances are covered and all that, she even got mad at me when I told her I was going to get a pt job...she thought it was to get away from her, I explained that it was for cigars, music & videogames....I really don't see the big deal either....maybe she needs a hobby?

Ok this has turned into the oprah show now lol sorry.

My reply to that would be, Well dear, when you are done buying shoes or clothes I'll be done buying cigars!

I personally give you permission to use my late fathers famous words, "I'll decide!"

Do splits with fellow Asylum members and just claim the packages to be bombs or have them sent to work.

For the most part my wife no longer cares as she knows it is something I enjoy and she knows she can usually just buy whatever she wants too. But to keep it from becoming a problem or a box or two costing me even more money in the whole well you bought a box of cigars so I bought a pair of shoes I do exercise caution. If my collection didn't have all my storage devices busting at the seems including an decent sized end table cabinet I wouldn't even bother hiding some of my purchases but I am too the point where my collection is far exceeding what I could consume in a couple years.

Why didn't I think of having them sent to work. Brilliant

I pretty much answer "never" to both questions and that is the end of that discussion. I never, and I mean never, ask her about the stuff she buys, so I won't let her question anything I buy.

icehog3 · 10-04-2011, 04:39 PM

I had to give the ex half my chit, but I kept all the cigars and the dog.
