Wives and girlfriend complaints

Nah, Mothers-in-law come with the territory... mine actually comes out on my side most of the time. She thinks I am the ducks nuts. HOWEVER, she does do the pop psychology thing - so perhaps I am just getting screwed over without realising it?? :eek:
Brad

Don't start a "Mother in Law" thread please, dont....
 
I currently live with my girlfriend and are getting married in April. She is religious, im not but go to church once a week with her. Although we have lived together for 8 months, according to someone from her church, us living together before marriage is interfering with her relationship with god so she is moving out to live with my parents until we get married in April.

Most everything is great, just the religion thing......and the future mother in law.

/end rant

Mate, look back through history and see how many wars were started over religion and women. You've got them both, throw in a touch of mother-in-law and I would seriously consider building yourself a bomb shelter. :D
 
Bahahahahaha!

Grow some balls mate!!! :D

I made the mistake of telling her i would go with her and be supportive while we were still in the dating phase. It has one perk, she is a permanent designated driver due to her not drinking.

What sort of Church is it ? you need to be careful it sounds like a cult.

Isnt religion just a popular cult?

She is in the Salvation Army, so Christian. Dont be fooled by their Red Shield and Christmas Appeals, it is full of judgemental old biddies whose sole purpose is determining whether others have violated Section 3, Item 4 of some unwritten rule book. I still watch out for lightning bolts when i try to walk into the church.

My guess is you wont be drinking either after the wedding, rules will be made.

Just be careful, have a VERY FRANK talk with her NOW, it's too late afterwards.

Dont let everyone in here scare you but make all your checks before final purchase, there are no returns or refunds.
 
Yeah I'd be inclined to agree with Mr Burns - if you already feel like you are compromising more than you'd like to now, don't assume it will get easier post marriage ... and then throw in kids and it gets harder again.

For example have you considered if/when you have children what you personally would like them to have in terms of religious education? How will this fit in with your wife and the church's views?

I'd be discussing these things now because they can have a big impact later on.
 
This part happens to me a lot ... I get told what I really think after my inner thoughts have been analysed. :confused: What I say isn't what I really think, that would be far too simple. :rolleyes:


Now I'll wait for natashia to tell me what I really said just then :eek: :D

Haha Firstly good to see you are on the right track asking me a woman how to get yourself back on track and leaning on me is truly your best move LOL ...
So your thoughts need a quick keeper upperrer...I have just the right answer for you ....plead ignorance and always mention how wrong you were LOL and how you are truly in touch with your true thoughts and find it disturbing not sharing it without having it analysed by your true goddess and everything you thought was really absolutely quite wrong from what you really felt....hahahha session over? :p:
 
Gents,

I am hearing all your complaints and once suffered the many exasperations you all do. The solution: Japan.

Was once married to an Australian girl who not long after marriage turned into the ubiquitous lumbering, angry, expectant white chick with an ingrained princess mentality.

Long story short, finally extricated myself from that and moved to Tokyo. Well gents, femininity and assertiveness can coexist and no, it's not right that women have fat arses.

I now have a divine Japanese wife who has her own opinions (and is not afraid to enforce them) but also understands marriage is a partnership, not a unilateral ATM. Plus she is elegant and doesn't feel like you are waking up next to a man as it does with Australian women.

Tokyo boys.....do yourselves a favour. You can go for days and not see some lumbering beast with an oversized dumpster. You will also be amused at the sorry sight of Western chicks up there.

"Yes we'll do it your way, my way was ridiculously logical and practical yours is far more exciting and adventurous"

:D

And then she loses respect for you because you arent a "man"

People say men and women are the same they both want the same thing, bull****, women want to be adored and men want to be worshiped, they get their wish, men hardly ever do. Hence the shoulder padded assertive , ball breaker at one end of the breakfast table and the poor broken bastard that has to put up with the crap at the other.
Happy days.
 
why is it , women only want to talk when the news or sport is on. Not any other time in between . I actually found my tv remote has dual function , as I increase the volume on the tv , her voice gets louder and louder .
 
Geez your divorce must be awful - better luck next time.

Love wearing gorgeous dress and stunning heels I know he loves it. I don't do it for adoration but self respect for the occasion. I love my leathers for the bike and 90% get around in jeans and a T. It is the grooming and health respect yourself and others appreciate it. I love it when he is groomed shower, clean cloths but he does it for himself I never say anything other than blue, black and green look sexy on him!

I most certainly don't worship him - I respect him for his care, love and friendship and we both respect our unusually relationship. It's weird but even he said the longer we are together in our situation the more passionate it is. Maybe some of you with patience and loyalty should give it ago. The romance and fire has never gone – seriously.

Sometimes we fight but always sort it out before leaving each other to go to our homes. We are older so children aren’t and issue - got the pup instead!! My daughter who is 16 years thinks he is pretty cool and said she would only have a boyfriend if he was like my partner so she could have space. His daughter 26 years has no problem as she can stay with her dad and do things with him. He won’t change – I won’t change = accept what you have or get out. When I see women and men being so ungrateful and constantly arguing it is immature. Sort it Out or Get Out!

As for large derrières and gravity prone bosoms - Don't assume ALL women get them, though I will say that full Caucasian women are more prone, there are many around my area and I think it is unsightly especially in lycra after the gym!! Must be banned!!

Maybe as I am Eurasian I am blessed with fine bones and naturally slim. My partner and I trained at the gym for 10 years together, sometimes side by side or we would do our own thing - I couldn't care less if he looked at other women, invariably I was the one making comments about them looking hot or not!

Religion -Man you need to seriously sort that out!! I completely agree with the comments here. If you don't work on your parameters now you can right the rest of your life off! You need to be respected for who you are, if you can’t respect your self and set boundaries she knows it and will push, trust me I’ve seen it as a woman. And you will lose your privacy and space – something you will value later on and will probably be the cause of your breakup - the put the lid down, lid on tooth paste, ……is just a smoke screen for, FckU ! I need my space – back off!!

Relationships aren’t sex, chores and yelling. Relationships are mutual respect, love and SPACE.
