UGH! "We need to talk" (1 Viewer)

[CurlyNight]

Well then you need to make more than her so you can tell her what to do...

 

[AAABatteries]

When my wife pulls crap like this I say "stop yelling at me, and bossing me around, etc". Even when she isn't yelling. If you are as persistent as she is it will eventually flip the script, and make her think she is actually being mean to you. Oh, and persistently ask of bjs too.

Never ask for them ever. Tell her.

Sabertooth?

that phone bill stuff is pretty messed up.

Yeah, we have been friends with this lady for a long time. I think she has been on our plan for over 9 years. She couldn't get her own plan years ago due to bad credit I think. SO my wife allowed her on our plan. She pays her fair share of the bill no problems there. But, in a few months the twins will turn 12 and for their birthday we have told them they could get a phone. We didn't want to lose that unlimited plan.

I don't get this. Has she been paying for the line this whole time? If so, why do you feel ownership of it? If she didn't switch off your plan, how would you transfer the unlimited data to the twins, without messing up the phone #?

Did you expect her to transfer off without losing her phone number?

 

[Dragons]

So she's mad that her friend wants to drop her line from your plan? :nutty:

No, she is mad that her friend wants to keep her phone number from our plan. Her friend will cancel our unlimited plan on that line if she keeps the number.

*Her unlimited data plan on that line. It's attached to her phone #, right?

"I feel like you are not doing your fair share around the house." I get this talk about once a year.

What are you complaining about? I get that talk every other day.

Man it sucks.

Yes, yes it does suck.

My wife makes no sense with her complaints either. For instance, I was yelled at like I was a child just this morning. I stayed up late to watch last night's games, and promised her I'd do the dishes before I went to bed. I got too sloshed and didn't do the dishes last night so I woke up early to do the dishes before work and before anyone else got up. I was just wrapping up the dishes this morning when my wife came downstairs and instantly started leaning into me about not doing the dishes last night. I explained to her that I was a little too tired to do the dishes at the end of the game last night (I left out the drunk part) so I put the dishes off until the morning knowing full well that I'd wake up early and do the dishes before I left for work and before she could find them and have to do them herself. And "Voila!" they're done!

It didn't matter that I upheld the spirit of my promise to do the dishes so that she didn't have to do them, and it didn't matter that I accomplished this before she usually wakes up or before the kid was awake. I had failed to live up to my promise to do the dishes last night while everyone was asleep. And for that I deserved to be treated like a #####.

I don't even care anymore. She's like a football coach who has lost the team. I see the lips moving, but my mind is in a completely different place.

C'mon man. Life is too short. I'd be so gone......

At&t Phone Line for all the questions:

We have 3 lines that are on our account.

1. Mine

2. Wife

3. Friend

IF Friend takes her number with her according to AT&T we lose that unlimited 3rd line.

The twins will take my number and the friend's number when they get a phone.

I will get a new phone since I don't use very much data or minutes.

Hope this resolves the phone issues.

Yes, you lose that unlimited 3rd line because she's taking the line with the number. It's not "lost" exactly, it's hers. She paid for it for 8 years, right? Did she pay the $15/month it cost to add that line to the family plan, or did she pay 1/3 of the total family plan bill?

If no changes were made and your friend continued to stick around on your plan, what plan would you give the twins?

You two should start using Incognito tabs and stop surfing pron like a ####### pilgrim.

If your wife makes 4 times what you do, I am guessing she does pretty well, hence who cares if you lose the unlimited plan? Sounds like you can more than afford it.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Seriously though start hiding money (your wife's money that is)

 

[James Daulton]

Has it been mentioned that he has to listen to her because she's the man breadwinner?

Exactly. I can understand the wife being upset b/c they are irrational beasts, but it seems like the OP is also genuinely upset which I can not understand in the slightest.

Well I don't think my wife thought her friend would be on the plan this long. LOL

Just because they make good money doesn't mean there's extra for a maid. Many families spend every penny and then some to keep up with (and beyond) the Jones's.

 

[naomi]

So...if you're completely honest with yourself - the workload both of you face during the average day, do you think you could be doing a little more?

Even if the situation with her friend is what renewed her sensitivity about being taken advantage of, it doesn't automatically mean that her paying attention to this (alleged) issue is uncalled for...

Has it been mentioned that he has to listen to her because she's the man breadwinner?

Yes. I mentioned he needs to make more than her to trump her card..

 

[James Daulton]

Yes. I mentioned he needs to make more than her to trump her card..

Because we both agree she holds the highest ranking man card currently in that household.
