Things your wife does that drives you bonkers

[djw004]

Mine asks me to handle the things she doesn’t enjoy- finances, yard, handy work-pretty typical guy stuff.
Then, the moment I make a decision about the finances, she is hounding me about it non-stop. I hear about it for days if the lawn is mowed 1 setting too short. And if I fix something, and it doesn’t look like Bob Vila did it, it’s a big deal. So I really have no issue telling her to shut the fuck up. It’s a nice understanding we have. She only gets super pissed about it every time I say it, and I keep saying it so I can keep my sanity.

I thought this was going a different direction - Because Mine has me do all those typical items, and then gets mad that I'm working so much over the weekend on things around the house.

You get mad if the lawn goes too long without being mowed, but get mad when I take time to mow it. But I'm a bitch so I just say...

Reminds me of an example of my wife from last summer.

Wife was asking me almost everyday in late April (2021) to spray for weeds over these 3 large landscaped areas under our 2 story patio and around the sides of our house. (1 area of rocks = 980 sq. ft. and 2 areas of mulch = 256 sq. ft. each)

Anyhoo, I spend an entire morning spraying the shit out of these weeds and she complains that I was out there too long.


THEN in August she was outside down by the rocks/mulch for some random reason and saw some weeds. *GASP*
Direct Quote: “Omg, did you even spray for weeds when I asked you? There are weeds all over!”

I went and looked, sure enough there were a few weeds that had grown up over the entire fucking growing season… but only like 25% of how many there had been it before I sprayed.


She legit thought that if you spray roundup one time weeds will never grow again or at the most they won’t grow again for a few years.



If only it was that simple to kill every fucking kind of weed we got in this part of the country. Especially considering that most of the weeds in the mulch were bindweed. (which will survive the upcoming Russia/Biden nuclear war)


Shoutout the farm boys who can appreciate a good bindweed story @Woodrow F Call @scotchfrost9697 @Mustangblood

My wife loads the dishwasher like she's a four year old.
That's the easy one.
If I do anything that upsets her, it can take months for her to get over it.

I coach 6th grade, 7th grade, 8th grade, most of jv , and varsity basketball at the Class C1 school that I teach at. I leave for work at 6:45 AM and get home at 10 pm since I have a 20 minute commute to work. One of the reasons I picked up all the extra coaching jobs is I hate losing and the extra pay will go towards a house I'll never be able to afford without an onlyfans account because she can't make up her mind on her career.

The fact I like to relax on a Saturday watching college basketball is akin to a war crime. I work on Sunday's at an outdoor store so Saturday is pretty much it. That's probably the main thing that grinds my gears for 6 months out of the year.

I mostly get complained at for saying I have to do work related things that have to be done.

 

[Pipe Line]

1. My wife volunteers for extra things at work, or with her friends, or with her family, which stresses her out already, then adds to that stress, and then gets pissed off at me when my sense of urgency to also be included in those isn't correct or I don't stress out about them too.

2. Schedules contractors of different sorts to come work on our house during different times of the day for things I couldn't give a rat's ass ass about, but is important to her, then I GET STUCK with hanging out at the house while people are there working on something that I didn't want any part of in the first place

3. House gets cleaned. My lab comes in from out back, shakes once, 3 hairs fall on the hard wood floor, she loses her mind saying the "house is a mess now thanks to your dog. Good thing I just cleaned!"

4. Home all week long, no plans, family time in the evenings. Weekends, nothing else planned besides helping my dad with some farm chores. As soon as I'm getting ready to leave "look at that, he's leaving us again" "I just want you to be present for our child, please!"



I'm a very low stress/low blood pressure guy, not many cares in the world. People being mad at stupid shit drives me absolutely nuts

After reading some of these I'm just gonna consider myself fortunate.

She gets it.



You need to be watching Wrestling like a real man.


You need to be learning how to grapple another man.

You need to be learning how to pancake a man and shove a thumb up his butt.

You need to be riding men using your legs and pin their ass like a real man that’s totally not gay in anyway.


You need to be wearing a singlet under your clothes at all times so you’re ready for action.

Can I get a double leg takedown hell yeah @Bobfather?

My wife uses way too much toothpaste on her brush, like literally how it looks in the commercials. She goes through a tube of toothpaste in like a week. Mine legit lasts 4 times as long, and when she runs out she takes mine.

This reminded me of another one...
She squeezes her tube in the middle.
I roll my from the end.

My wife always gets mad I spend time hanging out with my brothers or friends without her. When I try to tell her to make plans with her friends on a weekend or something I’m a terrible person who is trying to not be around her. “I don’t think you even like to be around me.”

My friends and I call this the midwestern white woman epidemic. You’re not alone brother. Midwestern White woman for some reason have decided their husbands are their hobby so whenever their husband wants to do something that doesn’t involve them it’s a personal attack and grounds for a fight.

I’ll give my wife this, she has ever cared if I go out without her from when we first met up until now. She encourages it. My main bitch like many is she has o concept of time, and she is a horrible driver.

It’s so frustrating. Me and the guys I hangout with will get together on Saturday or Sunday to watch football and then our 5-7 girlfriends fiancés or wives who are all friends can’t hangout themselves. So fucking stupid.

… does the toothpaste overflow from her mouth and stream all over her face as she chokes begging you to spit but you tell her you paid good money and expect her to swallow?

5-7 women in terms of "couples" friends is just too much. Majority of women post Marriage are much too Insecure/jealous to have that many of them together in one setting outside of a family event, wedding, etc.


Amazing how guys can manage it though, sure there's always that one or 2 guys that can be an overbearing douche on any occasion but men don't let it affect anything long term. After that night it's over. Women are incapable of it.

 

[HuskerGarrett]

I think it was mentioned but just the random phone calls for no reason. I'll be at work and get a call from her, expecting it to be something at least semi-important, and it's always a story about her trip to get coffee or her workout class at Orange Theory. And it takes 30 minutes to get off the phone

 

[Woodrow F Call]

Like any sane person would.

James if I can vent just a minute here....

You're being a woman by letting a damn toothpaste tube rustle you.
