I got lucky because my wife is not crazy. She’s beautiful, intelligent and capable and she knows it, she doesn’t have to continually prove that she’s “better” or “right” through tantrums. Her and I discuss important things and virtually always see things the same way, but in the rare times that we disagreed we did it my way. I run the show and my choices are what matter because my choices will always be what’s in the best interest of my wife and children. I would give my life for my wife just as quickly as I would my children.

Crazy is fun for the first week or so, it just ain't worth it, trust me on that one.
Remind me when we have lunch to tell you a story.........
We're all phuggin crazy....lol. Mens crazys just a different kinda crazy...sometimes
Men go crazy for women.
Well ya sure. Its deeper schit than that. When I hear someone say it, and ill gladly admit I do it a lot too! But I always listen to this song when I do. Its simple, but if you listen, we're never on the same page.....I dont think we ever can be.
Nice rack BTW. I could put up with a lot of crazy motorboating those golden bozos.

Crazy like Redhead crazy or crazy like sleep with one eye open type crazy? There's a difference.
Sleep with one eye open and don't turn your back crazy.
Yep, that's the bad crazy. My roommate in college dated a psycho. I came home with him after last call one evening and as I was leading the way up our stairs, one of our heavy dinner plates comes whizzing by my head like a UFO. She reloads with a coupla coffee cups before we get up there and "subdue" her. She's screaming like a banshee at 3am in OUR house! I told him he's got to pull the eject handle on this relationship.
Yep, he married her. Fast forward 23 years and he's sleeping in the basement with a butcher knife and a Kahr pm9 under his pillow for 6 months waiting for his divorce to come through. He has mason jars stacked at the top of the steps for an early warning device and a game camera pointed from the base to the top. I schit you not! That man's hair turned gray those 6 months.
Yep. Two crazy ass redheaded ex-wife’s were enough for me! 😬

All I can say is that she did it, HOWEVER, somehow it's my fault!
Irrational, poorly timed and mind-boggling....
When she goes from "frisky" to Satan in a 24 - 48 hour span, you know it's time to hit the road for a week of nasty texts and calls and then they will turn into "I miss you. Are you close?"

I sense an "I'm sorry but..." going her way in the morning.
The "experts" will preach that the "I'm sorry but..." is the worst thing you can say because it automatically appears that you're not sorry in their heads.
Now, in her mind, "you're just saying that" to get her to think that you're sorry even though you still think she is an overreacting bitch and is wrong.
(At this point you just delayed your plans for the day by a good margin)
See, Women don't think that way. She will most likely have laid in bed and realized you are right and then test your ass before she concedes the argument.
Women will use different tactics for the test...
You just have to be ready for them. If you want to get an early start fishing, you better bite your tongue and kiss some ass first. But that does nobody any good.
At this point if you come back with an I'm sorry too or an I'm sorry but...
WHooo doggy! Now she thinks, "maybe I was right in my thinking" and she will double down like a sumbitch because she's trying to regain control of the situation and prove to herself that she's nut fughin nuts in the head like all her past boyfriends have told her she is.
Then as you're on the way out the door to go fishing, you'll hear a kettle hit the door frame beside your head and think "why did I marry this crazy b*tch??"
Tread lightly my friend,

Seems like things going South between the parents can’t always be avoided, but when they do the kids almost always are worse off for it.
I have heard four out of five divorces are at the request of the woman, sounds about right.
One thing I learned from my own is a lot of the time the only thing worse than her leaving is if she doesn’t .

I can't remember who said it but it went like this; "I've had bad luck with wives, the first one left me and the second one won't!"
A piece of advice when I got married was "half your problems you can solve by just not saying anything" He failed to tell me how to determine which half was which though.
As has b n said over and over, they are all fuggin crazy. If I lost my wife tomorrow I would happily live out the rest of my days hunting, fishing and riding - ALONE! I wouldn't even think about getting back on the crazy train. Some of you guys with two, three or even more ... I don't know how or why...

If it has tits or tires, sooner or later, you are gonna have problems with it.
I found that saying to be 1000% true.
If my marriage ended, ain't no way I would ever get married again. Hell, for that matter, fairly certain I would not even have a female around anymore at this point in my life. They ain't worth the bull poop, drama, and as they say, "cray cray." It would be me, my dogs, hunting, family, friends, traveling, and my back porch. Quiet. Nice. Easy.

Good luck, Buckaroo. Hope this doesn't go really South for you.
Take it from a Crazy Bitch survivor, choose your words very carefully if it looks like it's really going in the schitter. The rest of your life will thank you.
Hell with it Boomer, tell her you're glad you did her sister on your wedding day! Live large! Take the bull by the horns and put that crazy woman on her heals.

Add me to the list if something ended my marriage, I’d not go that route again.
It would be futile.
My wife is a tough act to follow. Like Aces, I found one of the 2% I guess 🤷🏻♂️
Absolutely stunning when we met, cheerful, hard working, great mom and has done a helluva job in biz.
Would be no use for me to try again, even a really good gal would seem like a weak imitation of my Mrs.
We’ve had ups and downs in our marriage, 99% my fault. Used to think she stayed around when I was being an azz cause I was special 🤦🏼♂️ Imagine how dumb I felt when I realized she stayed cause she was special, not me. 🤷🏻♂️
I’ve had a lot of blessings in this life, but my wife tops them all, even kids in my situation and we have 3 great adult kids.
For you guys dealing with the 98%, it makes hookers look attractive and a bargain I’m sure. Wish you all the best Mtn Boomer, marriage problems suck
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.
Tell ya what my wife has her moments but I wouldn’t trade her for anything or anyone. She has pulled me back from the crazy ledge, saving me from myself, more than I’d care to count.
Sure every 28 days things can get a little tense and irrational but glad they’re on a calendar and it’s hormonal. My crazy is less predictable and I don’t have biological excuses...
Well damn, good luck, more than happy to report never had a chicken get crazy stupid with me, very thankful for that, would suck I guess to have to mash a face you used to smooch on.
Reminds me of the bafflement thread. On thinking it over, about 20% of everything she does baffles me - I just don't notice it much anymore, after 40 years. Too much work....
My favorite: On busy multi-lane interstates or freeways, she has a habit (about 70% of the time) of waiting until we see the "Exit XXX one mile", then getting as far away from the exit lane as possible, driving there for 30-40 seconds, then fighting her way back to usually make the exit.
That doesn't make her crazy- just me and everyone else on the road there.
I attempted to date a bipolar crazy lady. She was fun until I threw water on her dog to stop her fighting. She said good for stopping a dog fight. A few minutes later when I was refilling my bucket of water she attacked me. Yelling she is the only one who can discipline her dog. I grabbed her arms to prevent her from doing more damage. Finally some guy came up and forcefully told her to stop.

Hope You and the DeadmansHand have room for me on that list, there's NOT another girl like the one I have, no way, no how, nowhere, if she splits, I'm a hermit!

Already raised a son, now I’m helping raise a grandchild. I’ve had a life and it was a good one.
Don’t believe I ever woulda quit on my marriage, I took a vow to that effect.
Meanwhile it’s gotten kinda relaxing now to be able to do what I want, when I want.

Wow! In my mind, there's nothing this side of cheating that can kill a marriage faster than the silent treatment.
My wife used to pull that and it really made me wonder if I was married.
Tyrone, you might be right and then again when the wife don't get her way and pulls the meltdown [bleep] ,it is the clincher far as I'm concerned. It means love ,honor and obey means jackshit. It also means that your respect for her just went out the f**king window. T & A aside why would anyone stay married to a gal they don't respect anymore, there is just no fixing that. MB

My wife is my best friend, but still I occasionally find myself thinking "who the hell is this I'm living with?" even after 17 years. I sure don't think I've got it easy, but maybe I really do and just don't know it. I've never walked in anybody else's shoes.
Before I met her I did come close to marrying someone who I thought was right...but the when the day came that I realized she was absofuckinglutely nuts it hit me like a ton of bricks. My current, first, and only wife is a bit nuts at times but NOTHING like the catastrophe that nearly trapped, gutted, skinned, cooked, and ate me. Makes my skin crawl to think about how close I came!
Don't be the darkness.
America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.
MtmB says wife went crazy & I cannot read anywhere that she's leaving, they're getting d-i-v-o-r-c-e-d, etc., etc., etc. But a few if not more have read it that way. And I'm a hillbilly with poor reading comprehension?
NOTHING like the catastrophe that nearly trapped, gutted, skinned, cooked, and ate me. Makes my skin crawl to think about how close I came!
I thought about marrying one like that once, fast forward 30 years and by chance I run into her brother and he ends up telling me how lucky I was I walked! m the crazy bitch has been married 5 times has 4 kids and lives on welfare, then he looks me straight in the eye and says "she's single again ya want me to give her your number?"

My first wife was like that. Being around one long enough will cause you to start making allowances for it.
Just one example. I'd go over to visit the kids after our divorce,..either on a motorcycle or in a car. By then I had learned to park any vehicle far away from hers. Given the opportunity, she would have decided to run an errand and crunch my vehicle on her way out,....then say, "I'm sorry! I didn't see it".

I dont know how old you and wifey are, but Ive heard some things about women who need hormone balance by getting shots of testosterone. I hope im remembering that correctly. I apologize if Im not
Also maybe look into esteogen producing foods in her diet. Maybe shes getting an overload from somewhere. Soys and plastics I think I remember are said to cause estrogens build up in the body.
Heck id be looking for anything to chill her out. Tryng to pussyfoot around the passive aggressiveness, outbursts, ambushing, and emotional hostage taking is exhausting.
Look for a cause, or solution.

Ah come on, take one for the team. Besides, good reads are hard to come by, it'll probably be a smashing success and she'll be seeing your name on the best-sellers list,you could even send her a signed copy! You could write it "based on real events" which means you can add as much nonsense as it takes to keep it entertaining for you.Its probably your lifes calling, don't wanna miss out.

Maybe yours picking up on your insecurities causes you to manufacture those unsure vibes, not a chance of that happening here.
I knew one guy whose wife was going into early menopause. she had prolonged, very painful Menstrual Cycles. Her Dr. said he had a shot that could stop her cycles. She didn't ask any questions said, Far Out, let me have it! turned out it was Depoprevara ( sp? its estrogen made from a pregnant Mares' urine!) Anyhow, she went bat-crap crazy, he said it was a living nightmare. It took 6 mos for that stuff to wear off. After that, she went to Bio-identical hormones and life is grand again, ha. Its a wonder we don't all kill each other in one big bruhah! ha

You cannot over estimate the unimportance of nearly everything. John Maxwell
back around 1970, i dated for about five years, this bipolar, or manic depressive something girl. When she was up, she was wonderful, when she got down, life was very bad. I at the time lived in a college dorm, four stories. She went and knocked on every door in the dorm trying to find me. But she was a rabbit. We went our separate ways, until about 50years later chance brought us back in contact. She proceded to tell me how miserable she was with her husband of all that time and after three kids. I kind of shuddered thinking that husband could have been me. The funny part was and is her brother and i are pretty good friends. He told me one time i really skated a bullet not marrying his sister. Boy did i know that was right. Men will put up with a lot if they tie into a woman that acts like a rabbit.
TRUE. - I was once married to a dedicated horsewoman & ONE thing that I noted is that MOST of them cannot wear "regular clothes" to ride in. Further, those "special" clothes are $$$$$$$$$$$$, too.
When my niece decided to be a horsewoman in 1986, we discovered that "properly outfitting" a teenaged girl for being on the horse-show circuit is MORE expensive & MORE time-consuming than launching her into "high society".
Btw, a good working definition of a "horse show" is: "An event where pretty horses show their asses to a crowd of horse's asses, that show horses."

Guess I’ll not say no chance of it happening, in fact I couldn’t blame her if she did decide to get rid of me. And I’d like to think I’d take it gracefully if she did so.
Truth be known she should have and most would have over the last 20-30 years at some point. At one point I thought I was def headed for divorce. Imagine my dismay when I finally smelled the coffee and realized she didn’t stay married to me so much cause I was special, but because she was special.
But when push comes to shove, well we love each other. Think her cancer was a watershed moment for us. Never gave a second thought to closing down my biz of 28 years to care for her day and night. We walked a hard path during her cancer treatments and she’s often remarked she thought that time was harder on me than her. Maybe, but she had an uphill battle and I’ll just say it wasn’t easy for either of us. I so wished I could have traded places with her.
My eldest son sent me a text that pretty well summed it up. “Dad you can be one of the most ornery and at times one of the meanest sobs on earth, but I know you’d move heaven and earth or storm the gates of hell to take care of Mom. I love you for that dad, thank you for taking care of her. “
Everyone has their own path, none of ours will be exactly the same. All I know is I’m grateful to have shared that path with the woman I have for however long the journey lasts.
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.
