Does anyone else's spouse / significant other drive them fvucking nvts?

qs185 · Feb 27, 2004

It's gotten so bad that I made my wife sign the below statement tonight. Day after day after day I "remind" her that she can't be bothering me and day after day after day it's constant interruptions while I am doing my work and trying to think about the games.

I, name left blank on purpose for this post, acknowlegde that prior to this date, I constantly interrupt my husband while he is doing work. I further acknowlege that what he does requires extreme concentration and that my interruptions have cost us tens of thousands of dollars over the past couple of years.

I vow that going forward, I will strive to be more aware of the fact that my actions have had a severe negative impact on the money which I expect him to earn, and will attempt to not interrupt him, ESPECIALLY when it is close to game times.

Just had to vent - thanks,
Bart

bart you hit the nail on the head

DarrylParsons · Feb 27, 2004

My ex-wife was like that and that's part of the reason she's my ex. My new wife actually checks the results before me sometimes to see how we're doing. She also logs in to my accounts for me sometimes when I'm busy or running late. Amazing woman... I'm gonna do all I can to keep her.

I hope your declaration works. It sure shows you're serious anyway. GL!

Dante,

It would actually be a lot funnier if it weren't true, but I can appreciate the humor in it.

Darryl,

In case my situation doesn't work out, does your wife have any sisters?

Thanks,
Bart

+130 actually presented said document to wife.
+450 that she actually signed
-600 he's a degenerate just like the rest of us
and posted that on here for laughs; although that's how he truely feels.

Bart,

She's got one sister, but also married with kids. But if you came to Hungary for a month or two I'm sure you'd find someone good -- lot's of good old fashioned women here.

just make more money w/ your sports betting
then your wife does w/ her job. That should shut them up.

Borat - mmm it is very nice. My wife she is dead.

Bodrick - Wow, wow

Bodrick - What happened?, hat happened?

Borat - She died in a, in a field.
Lady Chelsea - How?

Borat - She die from emm.. work, but with accident. But is not important I have a new wife.

"I used to love but I had to kill her. Now she is buried in my back yard". From Guns and Roses song. They were great.

Sammy - how much is the limit on those wagers?

I'll take the max on the first two.

Can't offer anything other than the signed, dated form, but it isn't notorized or anything. Of course, whether she actually changes her behavior is a different question and open to debate.

Am I a degenerate? Depends on whom you ask - my family, from whom I have never borrowed a cent, and to whom I have given money, still worry that I will wind up broke and penniless and think I should go back to having a "real" job. So far, doing better than that.

I've made more money from my sports betting than my wife does from her job since I started - doesn't seem to matter. And the approximately (I know I said 10s of thousands, so just quantifying it here) 85000 she has cost me over the past two years would come in handy a lot of times (and this figure doesn't include the disagreement we had over how much money I was going to start with and I eventually gave in to her lower figure and proceed to increase it by 20 times the first year - if you count that money, that figure goes over half a million, close to 750K).

qs185 · Feb 28, 2004

Agree with Fishhead - I might leave her, wouldn't kill her.

My wife, she died in the field. But it was accident. It is ok, I have new wife now.

RPM · Mar 1, 2004

TheGeneral+ · Mar 1, 2004

She never nags me.

nagging...such a hard word to use about us wives....think of it as pounding the point. some food for thought...would we nag if we didnt feel ignored or if we were saying the same thing over and over with no response??

just for the record, i never ever ever nag.

Women need to realize that if they are going to be married to guys in the gambling business that they have to take the good with the bad. too many American women don't realize this. tico chicks are much better in this area.

DarrylParsons · Mar 2, 2004

American women are spoiled IMO. The women's lib movement gave them all sorts of rights but it caused them to be less attractive to men which made both men and women unhappier. I'm not sure who's fault it is though, the women's libbers or the men who tried to oppress them unsuccessfully before the whole movement got started. It's OK to oppress a woman from a power point of view (it's the only way to go IMO or else you go nuts) but you have to give her something in exchange like attention, affection and protection. They will usually go for that deal and it's better for us guys too in the long run.
