What's your DW like?

[RalphVa]

Mine is like that. In addition, she likes to do laundry and doesn't mind my being a naturist.

Alright, hopefully we can get this secret-squirrel BS overwith soon and get some traction in this thread.

Mine thinks firearms are a stupid investment.
Also that tractors and their attachments are not necessary.
She believes like her father, that different tools aren't needed for different tasks and that you should improvise with what you have.
Nagging is not effective or lady-like, but the only way she is going to get me to do anything.
Sometimes she cooks and cleans.

I'm gonna keep her for a long time, for several reasons, but mainly because she lets me have my tractors, guns, attachments and a garage full of tools. She also makes sure I have something to eat at least every couple days. I can put up with a little nagging, mostly because I can't hear her from the garage or while the tractor is running. Any questions?

Also, was there a reason this was put in the Owning/Operating forum?

Because you own her and operate her.

Or it may be the other way around, and we just have the permission to think we are in control, as long as we do things within their guidelines?

My dear wife believes:

- Firearms are acceptable now that we live in the mountains where the mountain lions & bears roam.
- Tractors and attachments are a necessary evil. Keeps her husband from whining about how old he's getting when he has to do all the work by hand.
- A garage full of tools keeps her husband from cursing when he doesn't have the right tool for the job.
- Nagging is unacceptable because it would make her sound like her mother-in-law.
- Cooking is necessary if the kids are to get their nutrition, and it keeps her husband from whining. Husbands have to make their special dishes on holidays and before parties.
- Cleaning is necessary because the husband would otherwise live like a slob.
- NO ONE touches her washer & dryer. Husbands only know how to separate the wash into lights & darks.
- Grocery shopping cannot be left to her husband because he runs through the store and forgets 70% of what he was supposed to get, or gets frustrated when he has to slow down & search for things.
- Her husband has a 5 minute "shopping threshold" in the grocery store, clothing stores, malls, etc., and becomes a grouch at the 6 minute mark.
- Her husband can however spend a half a day at a tractor dealership, hardware store, nursery, etc.

And she's hot. And smart. Folks seem to be surprised that I landed her, and make comments as such.

I know what I've got, and I'm not gonna screw it up, either. She's stuck with me, which seems to be fine with her.

I do the cooking, she does the dishes. She has no interest in the tractor . She does not know how to use a gun and thats a good thing since she is going through the change and can be a little moody at times. Although she does like needle crafts and some of those needles kinda worry me. Most of the time she is pretty good other times I just go to the garage till the hormones even out again. one benefit is the hot flashes their kinda nice on a chilly nite.

Reminds me of a school teacher I had as a teenager. He said he and his wife got along without arguing because if his wife got mad at him, he just went out in the back yard and hit a few golf balls, and if he got mad at her, he just went out in the back yard and hit a few golf balls.
