why is the wife shitty? because she called him on his shite?

She rightfully expressed that she doesn’t like you speaking with your ex-fiancé. You acted like a toddler over her setting reasonable relationship boundaries.

My guess is those messages were more than just friendly banter for her to react that way and you to move out instead of stopping talking to her. Congrats on being that fricking guy.


facts. the easiest way to tell that OP is 100% in the wrong here (and also how to tell that he is a narcissistic piece of shite) is how brazenly he seems to think he has done no wrong and has instead blamed his wife on being unreasonable.

look, i'll admit that i have probably crossed into the grey a couple times on social media with "harmless" messages or comments to women from a past life. you know how i know it was wrong every time? i ALWAYS felt guilty and that i was hiding something. because i WAS hiding something, and it WAS wrong. the fact that OP not only seems to think there is nothing wrong with his behavior but has somehow made himself into the victim here is a remarkable insight into what kind of person he is.

Would not be remotely surprised if those messages to his ex involved some shite that she should’ve absolutely flown off the handle over.

Especially since he went so far as to move out instead of stopping his messaging/talking to this ex. That just screams other shite was going on.

've asked this question so many times in these threads. I feel like I'm the only male poster here that is with someone I actually love, like to spend time with, like to take trips with, is a true friend.

I can't imagine sitting around with excitement and anticipation at the day I get to run out of the door to get away from my SO. It's really strange to me.


make that 2 of us

i will say a lot of posters on here are weird and fat AF

i love and am deeply in love with my wife, we prolly send 50+ text per day and tell each other we love each other 5+ times a day and been married 15+ years now. I still try and smash 2-3x per day.....now that isnt happening but i still try every single day.

i want to take vacations to experience with her and my kids. Like i could see going to an LSU away game with my dad or a hunting/fishing trip but IM not going to fricking vegas on a guys trip

i have had friends say...lets go to south america on a fishing trip and mentions the local girls and make comments like.....hopefully we dont catch anything and im not talking about the fish and laugh......i immediately say count me out. same with vegas trips.


guys trips when married is fricking weird, as is having female friends.

In that case I'd up it to he's 100% in the wrong. I guess what Im saying is if truley just friendly, there is no reason to get that upset over messages from someone from 30 years ago.... but this dude is easily the a-hole for reacting the way he did...not sure how he's stayed married this long honestly

Not really.


You don’t have to be a poonhound to get enjoyment out of a guys trip.


I go on a guys trip where we try to play 54 holes of golf and watch sports one time in a year. Maybe I’m not paying attention but I can’t recall a time in the past 3 years that any of us even spoke to another woman (that wasn’t serving our food or drinks) let alone tried to pick one up.

That’s weird to you?

You sound too damn old to be even putting yourself in this kinda highschool arse drama..

I called her some real harsh names and told her to grow up


Well that was dumb

Am I wrong for this?


Yes, 100% absolute Yes ..

quote:

Is she just crazy?


They all are but that's besides the point.

quote:

My wife says I get defensive when the topic is even brought up but I’m really just tired of hearing it and I don’t like how my wife has become jealous and definitely insecure over this friendship.


Because you are being defensive and she has every right to angry with you..

Sounds like you probably should grow up and stop having conversations with someone you nearly married at one point in your life..

kind of but that is not what im talking about. flying to a historic golf site with buddies you never see from HS and its once a year....yea not a big deal

going to vegas or miami or any random large city as a guys trip where you go to clubs and shite like that.....yes that is weird

but i only get 5 weeks vacation a year and i want to use that to go take my wife and kids amazing places. I actually like them and like being with them.

Not specifically cocomo, I don't know his situation, but there are a bunch of posters on this board that openly admit they have sex maybe a couple times a year. Even more openly get giddy talking about taking trips without their wives and getting away from them.

These posters are in very unhappy marriages and have a skewed perspective of how a healthy marriage should be. I don't believe men and women can't be friends but like I posted above, if you're one on one conversating through text, Facebook, etc. without your wife knowing, having conversations about sensitive topics like love, sex, etc., meeting for meals without your SO, these are recipes for disaster and cheating.

Unless these women are ugly and fat, the man is waiting till the opportunity presents itself to jump and take it to sex.


Some men feel inferior talking to other men. There are various reasons for this we wont get into.

there's a difference between a guys trip and a "guys trip"

i go backpacking with my guy friends sometimes. last August we got a cabin way up in the mountains and just fished and drank beer all week without a single woman in sight the entire time. that's different than a weekend in vegas or something like that where the entire point is to be around a bunch of women that arent your wife.

Yeah I tend to agree with that context. Your priorities and tastes should hopefully change.
A guys/girls trip is fine for married people
A guy/girls trip where many of the activities are you acting like you would before marriage and kids is not ok

It isn’t that hard. Don’t be a scumbag

As to the OP, I can’t imagine remotely caring about an ex of any sort in any way, and certainly not enough to walk out on my wife. Don’t blame her for your issues.

Theres a couple of us hardliners out there.

Be very selective in who you marry.

Your wife should be your best friend when its all said and done.

yea

like example...you and 2-3 married buddies from HS who dont get to see each other much want to take a guys trip to montana, camp along a river and fly fish and drink beer for 3 days......that is fricking awesome

take a guys trip with brother and dad to a LSU away game....fricking awesome

you and 5 friends(2 that are not married) take a trip to vegas or miami or atlanta for a guys trip where you plan to catch a game, drink beer, go to bars and strip clubs etc........fricking stupid and you are a weirdo frick


and if you are taking multiple guys trips a year no matter what they are for....fricking weird.
