Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Well as long as we are putting our noses in where they don't belong, I'll put mine in too.
Gud, since you said,
It really is one sided, and I tend to post about stuff when I just need to get something off my chest so it sounds worse than it really is. Maybe I'm just overreacting right now too
I'm going to assume that you are right, that what we are hearing *is* one sided and that there is a history behind her words and your reactions.
My advice? If what you want is to resolve the problems and repair the marriage, then she is the one to talk to. I'd even suggest not bringing up your anger here on the board, where we will automatically take your side regardless.
that I think fuel a lot of lashing out when she's stressed
we made this a semi -formal rule - that's not allowed in our house.
bad day means - matt plays guitar, or goes to pound on wood.
we both like to cook when stressed.
I do something domestic to create some order in my life, read or watch stupid tv.
and we are supposed to use words - I'm cranky, work was too crazy today, etc. so no one is walking into a landmine.
Why are people ringing my doorbell today?
Why are people ringing my doorbell today?
I love this. I'ma go home and use it when I'm cranky.
"How was your day, Aimee?"
"Why are people ringing my doorbell today?"
cricket cricket
"What's for dinner?"
we made this a semi -formal rule - that's not allowed in our house.
That's a good rule, beth.
Why are people ringing my doorbell today
that was suppose to be a seperate nonsequiter, but it works fo rme.
I often wonder what rules people have created for thier marriage. ours seem to be , please and thank you count and never use the D word as a joke, it should not be easy to say.
By "extra" do you mean that they get two weeks off in February, or just a week off?
Two weeks in December - One week in February - One week in April.
Gud, lashing out isn't okay behavior in my book. It really isn't. I mean, people lose their shit and get upset, but she's so punishing and mean about it. And it's over little things and it's unkind. Really, really unkind. She doesn't treat you with respect.
It's one thing to say things when you're upset, but it has to happen in the context of a trusting relationship. She's not somebody you would trust to have your back, or could go to and be vulnerable with.
I have accepted the offer for the new job! Tomorrow I have to talk to my current boss. That won't be fun.
(no, I did not tell her about this other prospect)
Why are people ringing my doorbell today?
This? Just became my newest euphamism. Gotta appreciate a good bell ringing.
Oooh! Oooh!
"God *DAMN* I need my doorbell rung."
That could be another one.
And in totally unrelated news, two teenagers were arrested for vandalism on 6/6/06. One had painted "Hail Satin" ... which means that learning how to spell really is important (and no, he's not an aspiring fashion designer).
