Loaning a chick money 9/9/16 - Bye (1 Viewer)

If she doesn't pay you back, I have some investment ideas that could help you make it back real quick.

 
Just read the updated post.. this is a horrible story. If this isn't fake then you are ####ed up.

My wife texted me yesterday:

Wife: Can you pick up <kid>? I want meet up with Amber.

Me: Sure.

I leave work, pick up my daughter and head home. We do the standard dinner/homework thing then we played a few math card games. “School tomorrow, tubby time and bed”.

After I get my daughter to bed, I hit the couch to catch up on the last episode of Homeland.

Wife gets in about 9:30, she says "can we talk?"

Me: "Sure, what’s up?"

Wife: "Amber told me you gave Angie $3k. Is that true?"

Me: "No"

Wife: "Why would she say such a random lie?"

Me: "I loaned Angie 3k"

Wife: "So Amber wasn’t lying"

Me: "I didn’t say Amber was lying, I said I didn’t give Angie 3k – I loaned her 3k. And tell Amber it’s really none of her ####ing business what I do with my money."

Wife: "Amber said you would be like this"

Me: "like what???" :confused:

Wife: "You make a lot more than me so you feel like you have more power and can do whatever you want. I wouldn’t give someone 3k without talking to you."

Me: "Loan! :rant: – also, if you want to loan someone 3k, just take it out of one of your checks. Oh wait, your checks don’t get to 3k let alone enough to loan it to someone else. So if you wanted to do it, you would HAVE to ask me. See the difference?"

Wife: "###hole"

She leaves pissed, goes up stairs. I sit on the couch for a bit, I feel like ####. I push play to restart Homeland; then I push stop...…#### this, I need a beer. I go the the restaurant where Angie works and have a seat at the bar. Order a beer and not to long someone walks up and puts their small arms around my back.

It’s Angie – "hey sweety, you’re here late. Long day?"

Me: "yes, kinda. Let me know when you have a minute to talk."

Angie: "We can talk now. I have no tables, just waiting for the manager to cash me out."

Me: "Amber made a big deal to <my wife> about me loaning you money. Why would Amber know that?"

Angie: "I know her and Jen don’t get along so I asked if she was looking for a roommate etc."

Me: "I get it but do me a favor, don’t tell anyone else. 3k is big deal to some people."

Angie: "I’m sorry I don’t want to cause trouble"

Me: "It’s no trouble at all."

Angie: "You want to hang out tonight?"

Me: "Neah, I’m tired. I just came out to have one then I’m heading home. Maybe tomorrow"

Angie: "ok I’ll text you tomorrow."

I go home, wife is already asleep so I just do the same.

Today I feel like I was a little too combative with my wife. I'm going to try to meet her for lunch to smooth things over.

Still never saw the end to Homeland.

You were fine up to the point where you threw how much more you make then her in her face. That was a #### move on your part.

 
I never understood the whole husband/wife "my money - your money" routine. What's mine is yours down?

I totall agree. I've never done that but at the same time she's never questioned what I've done with my money.Yes, I was wrong here.

I tried that when we first got together and it didn't work. We have three accounts, hers, mine and a joint account that's only used in case I'm traveling and she needs cash for something unforseen. She does have a credit card attached to my AMEX account though which usually handles anything that pops up.
 
Ron, you seem like a good guy. I think you know you F'd up a little with how you reacted so Im not gonna comment on that. How you gonna make it up to wifey?

I plan to meet her for lunch and apologies. I'll tell her I wasnt' upset at her, I was upset at Amber but I'm not really sure how to approach the subject about Amber. My wife likes Amber, she will shutdown if she feels I'm attacking her friend.I think I get through with an apology first, then address the Amber thing at another time.
 
Amber did it purposely to cause strife in your marriage. Women are petty like that. Might be jealous that Angie got 3 racks from you and she feels like she couldn't.

Good plan. I'd be real subtle with Amber. She's playing a game here.
 
Great update. Nice move not hanging out with Angie yet. This story needs to develop a bit more. :thumbup:

And do be nice to the wife today. We do not want this to be a train wreck.

 
I tried to call my wife to see if she would do lunch. Didn't answer, so I texted her":

Me:

Real sorry about last night

want to do lunch? I owe you an apology

Wife:

I'm busy today can't

Wife:

<kid> is staying at <friend/babysitter> house tonight

I'll be out late

Me:

I think we should talk

I said somethings I didn't mean

Wife:

It's not a big deal, gotta go

It's no big deal = Big Deal.
 
Hey everyone... its' Friday!!!

In all seriousness, maybe she just needs her space to cool off hook up with her girlfriend (fixed) for a bit and then it will be ok. You better tell Angie you really do need those 3 racks back.

A gift that cost around, let's just say, 3K should be good.

You and your wife seem to understand the rules but Amber doesn't. She's trying to break you guys up.

Interesting observation. But that would be a huge can of worms to even attempt to open.

Well, if it were a guy doing all the things Amber is doing, wouldn't you assume that was his goal? She's completely trying to undermind him already.
 
Ron, we are going to need to see pics of all 3 girls to really help you through this troubling time

I agree you are right, but by bringing it up it will appear Ron is the evil one trying to undermine Amber.

Ah. Sorry I miss understood you. Yes, I'm sure Amber has already told wifey that AR will blame it on Amber.

I'd have to say, with him throwing out three grand without consulting his wife, and her getting pissed about it, it isn't Amber that doesn't understand the rules. It's him that is clueless. Ron seems to have zero #######g clue what marriage is supposed to be about.

This is the biggest problem I face right now. I can't be viewed as the bad guy (which I made very easy because I snapped on my wife).I'm still 100% sure that my wife doesn't care about the money.
