WTF is wrong with wifes????

My son came up to my in a panic today. "Dad...I need your help!" I was cutting the grass at the time, so I flipped off the mower and walked over to the door to see what was up.

"My XBox won't start anymore!" I went over to take a look, and sure enough, it's got a red light that shows up when it starts (this is the old XBox version). I told him it looks like it's dead. The look on his face broke my heart.

Anyway, I whispered in my wife's ear as I was leaving for work that I was going to pick him up an Xbox 360. She said "OK", and I left for work. Once at work, I checked my mailbox and saw I got some 10% off coupons for Best Buy + I have some Reward Zone cash stored up, so I ran over and picked up the Xbox 360 and some games (totalled about $500 + 6 mos. same as cash).

I called my wife to tell her, and now she's ticked that I spent $500 without telling her. WTF??? I DID tell her! I'm in trouble because I tried to do something nice!

One of these days I'm going to have to get one of those marriage manuals to see how the heck these things are supposed to work, because I'm not doing it right.
 
no you are doing it right. you mentioned it to her and either she did not pay attention or had no clue how much it cost.

so this gives her a reason to bitch her out. I think women look for reasons. if they don't bitch every now and then they blow up or something.
 
this morning i went to the store quick for some iced tea and something to eat for breakfast...asked my wife if she wanted a doughnut, or a cinnamon roll...she said no thanks.

i come back, she asks where her doughnut is.

"dont you know by know, when i say no, it means yes?"

hmmm...I guess that's not allowed here, it started with dh, and ended with ita.

By the time they get a manual printed, it's so far out of date that you're hosed again anyway. I've been married since about the 3rd fucking grade, and everytime I finally figure out all the answers...they change the questions...

Nope, you didn't tell her you were spending $500, you told her you were buying an XBOX 360. Communication man, communication! 😛

You should be happy she has so much trust in you she wouldn't bother questioning your purchases. Too bad she was wrong. 😀
