Urgh...ever had these days with your spouse? I swear everyday my husband is off from work he decides to see how big of a douche he can be. I can't wait for Friday to get here, he will be back at work. Anyway, just needed to vent somewhere.

Very familiar feeling. I sometimes wish I had a cage that I could lock him in. I could just through a blanket over it when I've had too enough and then he might go to sleep for a while.

I love him dearly, but do have moments when I consider swapping him for a guinea pig or hamster.

I think this is funny.
Tone of voice gets discussed at my house. As well as volume of voice. My husband has a big booming voice sometimes. :oops: :P

I'm a bit of a screamer, and not always in a good way.
Your home always sounds so rational AM...I just don't work like that much.

Here's another example fresh from today of something that is douchey:

My husband won a free lunch at work, which was cool and I know it was his free lunch that he won. However, I suggested that our son and I could meet him one day over this next week and have a nice lunch together. This way we could have a nice meal without it straining the family budget too much. So, today he told me that he and a co-worker were going to go to lunch and take an advantage of the free meal. OK, I didn't think twice about it because, after all, it was my husbands meal and he does deserve a break and guy time. However, I now find out that the other guys wife met and ate with them....urgh.

Yes...I completely agree...it's inconsiderate when that happens

That does come across as inconsiderate. However, just to play devil's advocate, was your husband aware beforehand that the wife was coming? Chances are he didn't.

I think the lunch date idea is a great one. You guys could still do that. Why don't you try a quick picnic in a local park close to his work or something? Doesn't break the bank and can give you all some nice out-of -the-ordinary family time

I love this thread though. I just about did a spit-take the first time I read the title. Probably 'cos I have totally had the same feeling on more than one occasion

He is a Ten C member, but I don't think you would want to commit a murder over his number.

I guess we will know who he is when we see a thread titled

"My wife sometimes thinks I'm a douchebag and often has dreams of killing me"

Lol! You'd think that, and it might sound that way when I use bland phrases but, um, we have these discussions because it can get very noisy and chaotic here sometimes. :oops: There is one heavy metal guitarist, a pianist, a composer, and a very emotional visual artist living in this house!

i remember oh about a year ago discussing that yea, i love my husband profusely, but sure...there are days i hate him immensely. :P immediately following that post were a few in agreement, and one i remember from a wife saying, yes....loves her man BUT...on some days she'd like to smother him with a pillow. priceless, and true, sentiment. i think EVERYone in a couple feels like that, sometimes....

I remember being part of that discussion I can't remember if it was me who said that, but I was definitely thinking it! I love my husband, he is my best friend... but sometimes :twisted:

Now that you mention it, i think it was you if memory serves.
I just love how matter of fact you wrote it, priceless.



And AM....chaotic, whatever....i guess its the language you choose because it just sounds like a pretty healthy and mature household. Not my world at all.
