Your Wife and Your Obsession
Germ'sthread and BobCohas got me thinking .... scary, I know, .........
have any of you guys ever purchased your bowhunting items without letting the wife know? EG... scheduling deliveries when she is not home, or to your work or some place else ...... or going shopping when she isn't with you, JUST so she doesn't know what you bought????
I have allowed multiple selections, so click all that apply ......

RE: Your Wife and Your Obsession
I posted that my wife always knows what I buy and does care, but she didn't always know. I have had things delivered to work in the past, but my conscience got the better of me. It's better that she knows what I buy and we deal with the concerns as they come up.

RE: Your Wife and Your Obsession
If one thing that my fiorst marriage taught was that secrets are bad. I always talk to my wife about things that I want to buy. For those who say that it's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission they've never had a country girl kick their butts.

I could not be with anyone that I had to tiptoe around or hide any purchases thatI made. I make money and buy what I want, when I want, as does she. I'll never understand hiding or "asking permission" to buy things.

RE: Your Wife and Your Obsession
Keep in mind here, the question is asking, " have you ever done any of the above" .... not do you nornally do it ..... one time qualifies ....

My wife and I do not have any Credit Cards and we have 1 car payment(Had to buy a new one last week). This keeps is free to do a lot of things. The other thing that helps me is I do not have any vices. I do not smoke, drink or even go out with my buddies. I play a little golf and hunt
Be a good boy and be good to your family!! I have certain beliefs, one I will share with the young guys is this, Credit cards can and will "inslave" you in debt. I have seen in first hand(Biological father). Keep your self free from debt and your life andmarriage will be great!!!!

Lisa and I were tlaking, just yesterday, about a new development up the road from us. Could we live there? Sure. Our 30 yr old home is JUST FINE with us, though. We both put 20% towards our retirement......and we're happy with our way of life.
Sting (the police)has a line in one of his songs that says....."then you'll find your servant is your master". When I see all of these people with these payments and mortgages out the wazoo......I always wonder......Who owns Who?

For those who say that it's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission they've never had a country girl kick their butts.
She's the best though.
