Now that I have your attention: I am talking about Valentine's Day. I asked my wife what I could get her for Valentines’ Day and she said she didn’t need anything. She said we could just go out to eat. She also said not to buy her a card, just to make one on the computer (so I wouldn’t spend “our†money on anything she’ll just discard.) Sunday morning, however, in addition to the bags we had out for our kids, she had me a box with balloons and red paper on it. Beneath the “I love you†note was a Sony BluRay player. I don’t mention this to brag about my wife. I seek advice. Was this a set-up? Was I supposed to get her something or is this a “I’ll-buy-myself-something-later-and-you-can’t-say-anything-about-it†card? Is it a guilt account she’s saving up for later? Am I in trouble or just really loved? I did make the card and wrote upon it an original love poem, but that was it. - Concerned (but also stoked about the BluRay player).
Actually, she cares nothing about BluRay. She doesn't see the difference and doesn't realy like watching movies, anyway. I just talked about it so much, I guess she got it to shut me up. Maybe if I she blows the Meter Reader, I can get a 1080p TV to go with it.
She owns half the money and all the pussy. Isn't that how it works? But spending "our" money on me is tantamount to letting me spend "our" money on myself. It's still a gift. I mean, I could have just bought it for myself anyway (and would have eventually) but she took the time to go get me one. The question remains, "Why?" Maybe it is to distract me from wanting to have sex with her. She should have bought me some BluRay porn to go with it.
I never understood the whole "Our" money thing I guess ... does she work and put money into it? with me and sand sand nigga we have separate accounts.. never a joint account (he is smart) However I have 2 credit cards with his name name on them that I can use.... but never do- except for gas in HIS car and buying shit for the house/baby. ... or is I get mad... that is another story... as for WHY she did it.... to make you feel like shit since you did not get her anything. HELLO !!! retards... when a female says " oh dont get me anything" that is the ONE time you dont do what you are told. itsa trick. I did not get shit for VD... but oh well. Last night Walmart had doz roses for 3 dollars... so we picked up 6... I have red and white roes all over the place... and I HATE roses.
We keep our money separate too. We split the utilities down the middle, except I pay for trash and he pays for my cell phone. Since he pays for my health insurance I pay for his car insurance. We buy our groceries separately but if we are out and stop at BK (only fast food place I will go to) he always pays. I don't wash his clothes or cook his meals. We use different detergent and don't remotely eat the same food. I do all of the house cleaning and take care of all 4 dogs financially and physically. We sleep in separate rooms. If we bang, hang out, watch movies in bed, it's always in his room because he won't follow my OCD rules in mine so I sit in his room and bitch about how dirty it is then take a shower before I get in mine. I think I'm wife of the year material here.
As a certified expert on the subject please understand how badly you missed the actual communication. "she said she didn’t need anything" = "you better buy me something that I don't need, ie jewelry." "we could just go out to eat" = a dinner date is required. "She also said not to buy her a card" - surely to God you didn't actually fall for that did you? She meant, " you better NOT make a damn homemade card on the computer and pass it off as OK. She wanted you to get off of your ass, drive to the store, stand there with the other tortured, clueless souls, and buy her a $5 piece of useless drivel signed "Love you always, your devoted Husband." Want proof that you blew it? Got a half effort piece of ass that evening didn't you? No blow job, no scratch marks - just a mandatory Valentines servicing. I skipped it all and didn't even buy her a card this year. Who cares.
Uh, yeah, she works. We have a joint checking account and a joint Money Market Account. She has a separate Credit Union account that she dips into for Christmas, Spring Break, her braces, etc. I used to have a separate savings but I emptied it to buy Barry's extravagant house. The bills all get paid from the joint checking account. She doesn't like me to spend a lot of money on cards on flowers because they don't last a week and it is from "our" money, so she'd rather not spend it as such. She told me to make her a card on the computer. I always add extra verbiage (a poem this year) to any card while she simply signs her name to whatever "Shoebox" says on her behalf (no, she's too cheap for a Hallmark.) I didn't even get that but that's pretty standard at our house. She's kinky. She's into annual sex. Besides, I'm too old to play games. I say what I mean and I mean what I say. If I want something, I say it (or just get it myself.) If I say "don't get me anything," I mean "don't get me anything because you'll just blow our money on something I don't want so just allow me to get myself something when I find it." Whatever. She can't wield sex as a weapon if she is unarmed to begin with. If I'm in the doghouse, I'm getting a 1080p TV to go in there with me.
ya know what is funny,,,, I asked sand nigga.. " can we get a Blue Ray thingy?" he said we have hod.. that is was our DVD player... sure enough, I look at it - says BlueRay.... anyway all this time I was thinking Blue ray was some special thing... its the same damn thing as a DVD player... what is the big deal/difference in them.
You know, the way you and your Husband live is weird. Why did you even marry him? Sounds like you have a roommate you fuck every now and then. At least that way breaking up is cheap as hell.
If your Blu-Ray player isn't running on a 1080p TV via HDMI cables, it probably looks much the same as DVD on component cables on a 720p or 1080i. 1080p is true HD and needed to fully exhibit the Blu-Ray capabilites.
I know the bedroom tv is 1080..sony... but he bought a new Tv for living room... I dont know the numbers... but its a samsung ultra slim ... And it came with a normal remote and tiny little round one for some reason. He does not know about the tiny remote that does on/off volume and channels... and sometimes I sit and hit buttons while he has the big remote and it makes him think the house is haunted ... the best is while he is watching soccer ... and they going for a goal and bam the tv goes off... hehe
That's funny for soccer but, for college football, that would be grounds for an ass-whoopin'. My wife doesn't see the Blu-Ray difference either. Maybe it's a guy thing.
um so the Blue Ray thing is just a hyped up DVD player... I dont think we have any blue ray disks so I dont know how it looks... I think the few movies we have are all DVDs . you know one thing that pisses me off about the new TV... when my nephew brought in the box I was all " that is not gonna fit inbetween the light fixtures above the mantle.... so we mesured ... and mesured the new TV... um it is 3 inches off from the what the box says. it fits but I still wonder why they call it 55 inches when it is 52. Oh and it is a LED tv...I never knew about those.. I knew LCD and Plasma... anywho.
TVs are measured diagonally. Your TV should be 55" corner to corner. And, yes, BluRay discs are different than DVDs. You should see a difference.
