Poor guy with the innocent mind.

Also, as soon as you sign is when you realize you can afford it.

Lmao, her subconscious was killing her so buying the M3 is gonna help her sleep at night.

My folks pool everything together and it has worked perfectly. If people divorce it can certainly wreak havoc.

Buddy, if a woman or anybody is gonna cheat they're gonna do it whether the money is joint or separate.

I hate to steal the thunder here...but my wife bought me a sweater yesterday.

My wife and I went down to the local GAP to buy her a new T-Shirt. We both knew there was this beautiful Orange sweater on the shelf there too - my favorite color.

So we are filling out her paperwork to apply for the GAP card, and I am walking around looking at the sweaters. Our sales associate comes over, hands me the sweater, and asks if I want to put it on. I told him, "No I am good. I would love to but can't really afford it." He says, "But your wife already bought it!"

WHAT!? LOL. She had already talked to him and arranged to have it ready for me to take that day. EARLY CHRISTMAS! So stoked!

It's much easier to do when separate...and more costly since there's no financial accountability. I've seen it many times. That's not my only hesitation with the whole thing.

Anyhow I'd rather not detract from OP's thread any further.

That my friends is a key to a healthy relationship. When you start combining money, that's when the problems start.

Amen, that's exactly how I do things with my wife too.

Not sure I'd personally share that level of personal detail on the net but hey everyone is different.

All depends on the context. I thought he was complementing his wife?

irishmil · 12-13-2018, 03:06 PM

you guys are funny and yes...no kitchen stuff...not much of a cook...lol M4 is good...but we had already ordered her 540i...Yeah if she is cheating, hopefully with someone rich to help her pay my for MY M3

Miko M · 12-13-2018, 07:22 PM

OP you must be having best x-mas ever

I had little hick up in mine marriage ( 20 years ) and there was time where I sold mine car X6M because I didn't see a need anymore.
Managed to solve the problem and she wanted to fix things and got me Velvet Blue 18'M4 CP.

Couple months later I needed something for winter and she got me 18'X3

Six months later I said to her the new M5 is coming and explained that this is perfect car for all season and it's a beast. She didn't complain much and I got one

So I figured I can't be selfish and surprised her with 18' M240xi

Now I am having best Relationship ever

Darth One · 12-13-2018, 07:36 PM

So she gave you an M5, M4 and X3...and you gave her a 2-series??

G35POPPEDMYCHERRY · 12-13-2018, 07:38 PM

Yes, that's what she loves. She doesn't like big cars, two door Coupe is small and it's her favorite car.

irishmil · 12-13-2018, 09:30 PM
