Stalemate at the house


Dec 14, 2020, 12:01 PM

I am not talking first and neither is she. Its childish, but it is what it is for now.

Dec 14, 2020, 12:17 PM

When I was with my old girlfriend I used to leave the house and go to the bar when she got like that. I would get smashed, write the day off, and I would start again the next day and see if anything had changed. Needless to say we didn't work out after a bit.

I mean you might for a while because its quiet, but you won't win in the end.

Dec 14, 2020, 12:13 PM

we can dump the bank over and pour as much money into this house as she wants, we can spend my whole inheritance from my parents, whatever she wants. I mean heck its another $30k this Spring for the master bathroom.

Then I want to do something that is minimal and here comes the judgement hammer.

It has created and fostered an attitude that the house you live in, and how it's appointed, is the only TRUE way to measure your happiness in life. It needs to be modern, which means upgrades every 18 months, and don't you dare question the expertise and wisdom of these expenditures, because she watches ALL the flipping shows, so SHE KNOWS. You just don't understand happiness and where it comes from.

and god forbid we just hire a contractor. We have to hire a design studio to lay it all out for us, show us plans on their 120" TV in their office while she has a mimosa.

I told her last night, I don't need all of this ####. I would be just as happy in a 3 bedroom condo in the middle of town. (not downtown detroit) This is her deal, not mine and it pains me every time we stroke a check while she smiles at the design lady and yucks it up over wine.

What gets me is tearing out perfectly good stuff...


Dec 14, 2020, 3:02 PM

Just to replace w newer, shinier stuff. It’s like the carpet at my house, first wife wanted to replace it all when we moved in just bc... my argument was why replace it now with 3 young children and a puppy, should wait till they are old enough to stop fn it up.

9 years later and kids much older, about to replace bc at this point it makes sense. Also on my 2nd wife now... lutz

this is the paradox in building a nice house.


Dec 14, 2020, 12:29 PM [ in reply to HGTV was founded by Satanists. ]

we put nice custom cabinets in kitchen and bathrooms. Honey oak finish. Will last forever. Now, they're hopelessly out of date and ugly. Shoulda bought cheap cabinets from Lowe's and changed them out for new cheap cabinets every couple years.

Of course, built the house 22 yrs ago. But the cabinets aren't worn out yet.

Yall got kids?


Dec 14, 2020, 12:51 PM [ in reply to I was so freaking mad last night ]

If not too late.....

Make a deal with your parents to set up an irrevocable (or revocable) trust for the kids for your parents' largest asset (house, land, business, whatever). That way it keeps her hands off it, you get whatever else from the estate, and the kids get theirs when they turn 30, without having to worry about your wife blowing it on a double oven, remodeling crap, and generally pissing away money. She still gets some of the estate, but the expensive stuff she can't touch. And if there's an emergency (with revocable) you can still revoke the trust and sell it.

who doesn't use said degree....

This isn't gonna end well.



My suggestion....cook her favorite dinner, rub her feet, eat her vajayjay, and let her know you want to save for each other's future.


If that doesn't work....divorce, hookers, blow.
