  • It really does depend on the relationship though and how serious you are. There is a difference if the post is made in good humor vs. in anger or with an intent to humiliate. I joked about only doling them out on special occasions, my hubby is on here, he laughed. Whether what I said is true or not is for us to know and everyone else to guess about ;) He wasn't offended and I wouldn't have been if he made the joke, although some spouses certainly would be.

    I just feel like we walked in on someone else's argument. There is way too much anger going on in this thread for it to be just about this thread. Seems like it's been carried over from maybe the MT? Maybe best to keep it there or in PMs.

    I made an innocent joke
    she attacked me
    I defended myself
    she wouldn't let it go
    I continued to defend myself
    she inferred that I'm not good enough for my wife and that I betrayed her :shock:

    it's really quite simple. this is how she operates. she jabs and jabs at someone until they say something back that will inevitibly get them a time out. it's no secret. she's a troll. it's what she does. it's like poking a bear with a stick until it attacks back and then it gets shot by the authorities.
    I know...I saw. I think it's time to let it go. All this fighting is making me a whole lot more uncomfortable than the original joke.

    Why do I suddenly feel like mom :? :lol:

    Oh I get the guessing etc :thumbup: fun to play when your hubby is about ;)
    maybe even when they aren't -- uh oh!
    I wish I would have seen the joke cause it did not sound the least bit funny
    nor was anyone :lol: at all nor was it even respectful

    I agree that anger certainly does follow one around and around and around
    I guess what matters is if his wife sees the joke or sees it as disrespectful..not really if any of us can see it or agree with it. Unless there is abuse in a relationship I try to stay away from judging how it *should be.* All that really matters is whether it works for the couple or not...even though it might be worlds away from what I want for myself.

    AET is generally a happy place...which is why I station myself here. Let's try to keep it that way :thumbup: Any more fighting and you two are going to your rooms with no supper! :x
    that would probably do us good! But it has to be the same room :lol:
  • I know...I saw. I think it's time to let it go.

    I did. But before that, i actually looked back, and I wasn't even the one who made the original "bathroom cleaning for BJ's" joke. There were at least 5 other people that did before me. And I'm the asshole. Go figure.

    I made the joke before you. I'll be the asshole. If that's the worst that happens to me this week it will be a fantastic week :mrgreen: Moving on...

    Wow, way to pin the problem on one party, when both are at fault here. What really needs to be done is to ignore those who attempt to manipulate and move on. Foe feature is meant to be used!

    Actually I asked them both to stop...repeatedly :) You might need to read back a page or so.

    I, in no way want to start a fight, but this is what you said on this page.

    :lol: I know what I said. It was a follow-up from what I said on the page before and a joke regarding Pandora saying she was moving on because I said to (on the previous page). Thanks for the reminder though! I don't need to add either of them as a foe, because I don't have an issue with either one of them. Things were getting too heated for my liking...and I'd be happy to discuss that further in PM as well
