    I've never paid more than $25 for a purse. I know the point you were trying to make is it doesn't matter that much, but my roommate and a few other girls I know just HAVE to have the Coach purses and will spend $300+ to get one. This makes no sense to me...

    I have a 7.99 purse from Wal-Mart and people ask me if it's a Lesportsac purse all the time. I find it funny, but it just annoys my roommate. :)

    Huh?

    Most of us are guys, so Lesportsac has no significance to us whatsoever. You may have to explain that. ;)

    marry foreign women. they're already conditioned to think it is their sole purpose to make their man happy and they're not privy to any of the legalities of divorce. :D

    Is that anything like an SCT Excalibur II Tuner and C&L Cold Air Intake custom tuned by Brenspeed, because I'm about to drop close to seven bills on these.

    No. I actually went with a friend of mine from work. It was a tough concert to take a date to because the seats were not together - there was one entire row in between them.

    BMoney,

    You are probably right that I have a lot of anger bottled up inside but if I told you some of the sacrifices that I have made while at the same time feeling that she wasn't really making any at all, then you might see where I am coming from. However, I have already told too much of my personal life, so I rather keep this to myself.

    I figured you wouldn't...but I'm not sure just how well-known of a brand that is...

    Obviously not very well-known...:D It's a designer luggage/hand bag company, and its not cheap...

    I'd like to get this thread back on track and continue discussing how Swoly came off as an *******.

    Go see a therapist. You can both clear the air with this in front of someone impartial, and then work on coming to some agreements on how to deal with this situation and others like it in the future.

    It sounds like there is a definite issue here, and it will get worse unless you can both agree to some sort of arrangement to deal with this.

    I dont know Raven.

    I disagree with him, but its not crazy to be of the opinion that marriage is forever. Or rather that marriage must be forever.

    Yeah, the joke was that the original topic didn't have anything to do with Swoly being an *******. :)

    The day after I told my wife we needed to watch our budget last month, I came home to a new Kirby vacuum cleaner :eek:

    That'll test you.

    UPDATE: Well, things haven't gotten much better. The love I had for this woman at one time is about gone...

    I called a local counselor (one that is non for profit) and set up an appointment 8 days now. I am also seeing an attorney to see what my options are (no, I am not going to file divorce). I am going to tell my wife this Friday that we have to go to counseling if we want to save our marriage. Of course, I am scared to death of doing this because I have no clue what her reaction will be. She is liable to try to destroy possessions of mine and maybe even do bodily harm to me. I am also worried that if she refuses to go to counseling to tell her, "Well you leave me with no choice - I'm gone." Because she may run out and get debt of 10,000 dollars. That is something I am going to ask the lawyer tomorrow. Please pray for me as this is the biggest mess I have ever gotten myself into and I am in desperate need of getting out of this hole. Hopefully, she will realize the severity of the situation and go to counseling with me. She and I will both make some changes and our marriage will not only survive but be long-lasting. Yet, I have learned a long time not to get your hopes up over anything. :( :(

    I know I said I would butt out, but I hate to see someone go through what I went through.

    You have a realistic view of what is going on. If you truly think its over, you need to protect yourself. Close joint accounts and cards, just in case. If there is a divorce, YOU need to file it! If she files it, you are in the passenger seat, and hold on for the ride. Document all spending. Do not give up ANY of your possessions. You may feel guilty, and that's the nature of man, to be providers, but don't give in to your guilt.

    Anything you give her is a gift and you can not get it back.

    Good Luck Manny. We may not have always seen eye to eye, but you've gotta trust me in the things I say here. Thank God you have no children between you, because I would hate to see you go through that fight.

    I would also get some identity theft protection, just in case. It's not a plug for my Prepaid Legal Identity Theft(ok, it is). Just get some form of protection.
