Probably NSFW...

There are a few good lines in this video that can be applied here.

this brings up point that is going to be hard for me in the future. At some point you will need to help care for your folks and hopefully at theat time your spouse will be understanding.

I can remember my mom caring for my grandmother in her last year of her life it was a big strain but we all understood and pitched in my dad included.

Also I can't wait for the follow up thread about this fight, the pickup from the airport!

Good point...that's going to be a challenge even if everything is chirpy and when you throw a monkey wrench into the mix the relationship will only get strained.

Oh, I already got out of that so that we could do something that weekend, but that doesn't matter. It's like this weekend is the last weekend each of us will spend on Earth and I chose my family over her.

My guess is she's either knocked up or she was planning to off you and sell your organs on the black market this weekend, but I'm good with relationship advice so I could be wrong.

TheMalcolmConnection · 08-04-2010, 03:47 PM

OK, you wanna' know what's weird. She texted me and said, "You better not ignore me. I'm going to keep bugging you until you answer me."

I said, "DON'T BUG ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Where she could hopefully tell I was kind of kidding.

So she writes, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not fond of Saturday, but I'm better with it - also in this deal it better be a kickass night full of monkeys, strippers and midgets."

That's the exact quote.

Amazingly, Favre and Childress had the exact same text exchange. Though Childress claims he asked for dwarfs, not midgets

LOL! Well played.

Man, it's amazing how much better I feel now too. I mean I was NOT going to budge. She basically accepted my deal where we both get what we want.

Good news.

Being "better with it" now makes me think it could have been a hormonal-driven rage...they usually come back to Earth a few days after those and change their tune somewhat.

Sounds like you have a keeper with her "requests". Monkeys are always awesome.

edit: nevermind...bar rage erased the good news.

GET A PREGNANCY TEST.

If this doesn't sound like a trip to Tijuana, I don't know what does.

She had something in her bonnet that she's finally let go of. Of course I'm curious by nature, so my first question to her would be why she was so upset about it. However, sometimes it's best to let sleeping dogs lie, so maybe not stir that kettle until next week sometime.

Good luck with the Stripping Midget Monkeys.

Edit: saw she flipped her shit again and then you guys might be good again? Which is it? And as saden asked, what channel is this show on because I've got the popcorn ready.

It better not be male strippers she's asking for.

Dogtag · 08-04-2010, 04:08 PM

Okay - here's the deal:
1) This is not necessarily about you taking your family to the airport / or other favor
2) This is not necessarily about lost time on the weekend

Your wife is not feeling appreciated / Loved / special at the moment. Men and women just don't think the same way, we are wired differently. Your wife (and most women) are not going to give you a direct request - life's tough now, I really need you to make me feel a little special right now. However she wants you, as her other half, to know that and to come to her emotional rescue without having to give you the direct request.

She's not looking for a trip or some time on the weekend - she wants you to let her know just how special she is to you. She is looking for your emotional support / time / attention until she feels better about whatever is happening in your lives right now. Make an extra effort to find out why she feels down and don't try to 'Fix It' but try to help her figure it out and be supportive. Let her know you care and are there for her.

Best of luck!!!!
