Oh you never KNOW!
In time anything can change, I DID!
Other wise stink with plan B as you are already doing!
Let me guess he doesn't have any hobbies or Extracurricular activities that cost anything?
Like I said earlier, One day, "i woke up and smelled the coffee" , and realized that my spending on Music Equipment was far greater than what my wife would ever spend on herself.
We always have had a rule that niether of us would spend more than $100 on something with out ask the other if it was ok.
And in all the years that we have been married (almost 7) she has never denied me from buying anything.
The funny thing is that I never did deny her either.
but the ratio it seems to me is 1000 to 1 in favor.
My first atempt to right this injustice was 2 years ago when I bought her a Brother PC 6500Embroidery Sewing Machine that cost about $3000, for our 5th wedding anniversary.
Of coarse I broke the $100 dollar rule and didn't ask if I could get it for her!
BTW she loves that machine!
So this Christmas is when I went nuts after her younger sister
with an attiude
(she's a CPA) was giving my wife a hard time about a handbag I had bought her 8 years ago from Wilson's Leather, and how bad it looked and how it was about completely worn out and need to be buried. She suggegested for her to go to WALMART!!!!
That was the straw that broke the camel's back!!!
My wife loved that bag not for what it cost but because I bought it for her!
So I guess that is why my quest into the world of handbags.
And yes, you should have seen the look on her sisters face when my wife walked in with her D&B Zebra Handbag with matching everything!
Infact as of today she now has 3 different Zebra handbags, 2 matching wallets, 1 matching makeup bag, a matching wristlet, and a matching coin purse!!!
All since Christmas!
BTW way just out of spite I bought my sister-in-law a Mobile Edge Pink Komen Laptop tote bag for Christmas!
That also shut her up!
I just can't wait till she see's my wife with the Jimmy Choo!
So I guess now I have realized just how much my wife loves and has scarificed for me and I want to give it back to her.
BTW the way I will tell her of this forum just as I did of the other one but I have to wait until after her Birthday on Jan 31!
So in 14 days you grils will get a new member!
I really think that she will like it here.
He will come around some day
.... IF NOT PLAN B!
