Default No Really, What Problem?

“Problem, you say?” I chortled, “I see no problem.”

She picked up the little Firiona Vie figurine and shook it at me, “You don’t think that this is a problem?”

“Put her down, you’ll break her!” I felt my heart rush into my stomach as I ripped the little doll from her hands and cradled her, “There, there, it’s okay, I won’t let her hurt you.”

“Harold, this isn’t right. We need to do something about this.”

There she went again, talking gibberish. “Do something about what?” I asked.

Her face turned red and the little vein on her forehead began to bulge out, “YOU KNOW WHAT!”

“No, what?"

"JERK!"

"Now Mavis, you aren’t making any sense at all. Perhaps we should call a docto-”


"SHUT UP!"

Clearly, my wife was going insane. And as I gently placed my darling little Firiona back onto her little pedestal, I realized that my wife had a real anger problem which, she was in serious denial about. I replaced the scepter into Firiona's delicate little hand and I set her back up on her shrine which is set up in front of her life-sized poster. I smiled at Firiona. I could see that she was smiling back as she always does. If only Mavis could smile like that. I think she could, if she learned to control her anger. However, the first step towards controling her anger problem, would be getting her to recognize that she has a problem, if you catch my drift.

I think your wife has a serious gripe here that needs to be addressed. I think the real problem is that you are just to close, to involved to see what she is really trying to get at here.

The extreme reaction she gives you and the way she shakes that figurine are a dead give away.

First up - I will admit there are better ways to put your point accross than screaming and threatening your possesions. She does need to get her point accross but yelling will not help.

She needs to seek some professional help before you will trully understand why she is mad at you.

Now some people when faced with this situation would say WWJD? But I beleive there is a much better and quicker way to find a solution to her problem.

WWGTM? - in short - Where Will Google Take Me......

Again - to the rest of us the answer is obvious, she needs some professional help, and I think we can all agree that once she types the facts of her problem into google, the answer will be top of the list.

However because she is a women and therefore inherently irrational this solution has simply not occured to her.

So to help your relationship I feel its my moral obligation to point her in the right direction. Point her to somewhere she will be able to seek the help she needs in order to help you, because really - helping you is what she is trying to do, even if she seems to be going about it in the wrong way.

Firstly I would tell her to try www.amazon.com. On this site you can usually find help for any problem you may have, but just incase she is like,you know, slow or something (she is a woman) I have included a link for her to follow.

If you wanted to score some brownie points (in my experince brownie points with the wife are often redemable for.......well it keeps her quiet for 5 minutes if you get what I mean, so as well as saving your relationship you get 5 minutes of peace, and then 5 seconds of you screaming "God Yes.....do that thing with your tounge just once more......arrrgggggg......" then 10 minutes of having to listen to your neighbor complain about the noise (dont worry its just jealousy that motivates him - even if it is 3 in the morning) Although next time I think maybe I will wait untill we get curtains put up before cashing in my brownie points........anyway - back to scoring brownie points....If you would like to score some of the above mentioned brownie points I would advise you to follow the link yourself. Don't wait for her to do it for you. Take some initiative and show her how much she means to you with the proactive approach you are taking towards your relationship.

If you do, try to remember, your relationship IS important. More important than a few measly dollars - So dont hold back - afterall SHE only has your welfare at heart, so I am sure anything you spend to resolve this issue she will be more than happy to reimburse you for, either with money or more of those brownie points I mentioned before....

So - My moral obligations.

Click Here

And next time try and pay attention to the admittedly subtle hints your woman is trying to give to you - she only wants what is best for you after all.

However, in it's extended form, it translates roughly to: I am an under-educated retard who spent all my time in class browsing myspace on my cell phone, and so have decided that "laugh(ing) out out out out out out out out out out out out loud" even comes close to making sense.

comma get me - obviously a reference to the punctuation mark, the comma, which the poster realizes is his better, and thus avoids religiously as to avoid humiliation at the [hand? tail?] extremity of. He/she shares this fear with us, as he/she is hiding behind the infamous "guest" account, and so fears no repurcussions from the comma. Because everyone knows commas need your screen name to actually hurt you.


no apologies for the :tirade:

I dunno for sure, but I got banned the day after posting this. Something about repeatedly derailing threads. So I have to be careful about that now. At least it wasn't a permaban.

Default What about this.....

Here's the summation of my problem.

I have a fiancee who I would love to be able to play WOW with. I have played MMORPGs with the same group of friends for the last three years, moving from game to game, but in the last year I have tapered off my playing to spend time with her. She doesn't even know that I've ever played an MMORPG beyond Star Wars Galaxies three years ago, let alone that I have a 70 WOW character.

Now, she loves the sims and other similar games, but she also likes to cheat and win a lot. If she is good at something (especially being better than me at something) she enjoys it a lot. Obviously, she won't be cheating at an MMORPG, but I'm not sure how I can get her interested in playing one. I will obviously out level her as there's not many MMORPGs I haven't played and am not skilled at levelling in, and she's not used to MMORPGs at all. I don't want her to get discouraged, but I also don't want to be stuck playing a low level character forever.

I think I can use the competitive side in her to get her playing, namely the auction house and group PVP...that and jewelcrafting. I'm just not sure how to do it. All MMORPGs have free trials, and I think I'll test the waters by installing WOW or COH/V's free trial on my laptop, just to screw around with. If she has a hostile reaction to the MMORPG (which she might) I'll back off it and play in my spare time.
