She will get over it, it's her way of trying to set bounds in the relationship. it happens, both men and women do it. Just remember it's nothing a good spanking can't fix.

Does she have an attractive cousin or sister?

Don't get mad or give in...

If her mother is going with her then definitely don't feel guilty. Not only does she have company to shop with, but you don't want to be putting up with the mother in law all day.

Tell her, "would you like to go spend the day tailgating and watching a game with me and my dad and none of your friends?!?! I didn't think so."

At four months, its a control thing. She doesn't really want you to go shopping, so much as she wants you to kowtow to the demand.

It is imperative that you draw a line in the sand on this one. Imagine three years from now when the Vols are in the SEC c-ship game and she wants to go to the outlet malls to shop for Christmas. You need to set the tone for that right now.

Incidentally, I do not do divorce law, but am willing to learn.

Oh man, the mother-in-law is going? Manic, you better run like hell because that's just their opportunity to grill you with no back up...At least this way they can grill you and you're none the wiser to it

Sweetie, you need some coffee. Quick.



Nah. She's just still in the moonlight and roses phase of being married. This is a minor bump in the road.

In my experience, someone that loves you for who you are never does that to you unless something else is wrong.

Ive been in many relationships, and i eventually married my wife because we could be 100% honest with each other and we didn't ever have to be fake.

When you have to start making huge sacrifices of the things nearest and dearest to your heart just to prove that you love someone, you have a problem.

Sacrifices are a part of relationships. But there are certain things that as a couple, you should know not to mess with unless its really important.

I'm taking her shopping next weekend!!! I mean all this we're going to do, and then she is going to the game with me. Her first Vol game. Maybe that will change her. She hates football, and is so bored with it watching it on TV. I'm screwed, she has got to be out of her mind to think that Football is more important to her. I have been a HUGE vol fan all of my life. She knew this before she married me, so what cant she freaking understand?

Thanks for all the comments. She is a very very hardheaded person. When she get's pissed, you're done. She will be mad for the rest of the day. I dont think anything I can do will change how much she is pissed at me for the moment. She thinks that I was going to let her walk out of my life over football. I dont know what to do. I guess I am just going to let her sulk in it all day with her mother while she is shopping. If the Vols get blown out this day will be hell for me.

Seems to me that no matter what you do now she will be angry the rest of the day... so go ahead and invite friends and enjoy the game... marriage will take care of it'self, but today Vol history is being made.... :crazy:

Just call her and tell her that you are upset you guys got in a fight and that you look forward to trying to talk it out when you both calm down. Tell her you hope she can still enjoy her day, and that you will try as well, but that you had been looking very forward to this and somehow there is some miscommunication because you obviously aren't going to let her walk out of your life over football. You guys can figure out something that works, but she needs to understand that this is something that you care about and will be wanting to do this time of year.

Sounds like she needs to grow up a little. Not trying to be mean, but you MARRIED her for the rest of her life I assume. The mall will still be there tomorrow. Call her cell and tell her to spend an extra $100 bucks (if you can afford it). And you might want to tell her she knew you were a Vol fan when she married you.

I'd have to agree. My wife would never do that. Tell her that tomorrow you'll take her out shopping and to a nice lunch. Maybe even fix dinner or clean up the house. Or compromise and go shopping and tell her that you need to be back by game time. Marriage is all about compromising. She needs to understand that certain things are important to you and just like her, you want to spend time together but also this game will only be on tv today whereas the mall will still be there after the game or tomorrow.

Wow. She can't possibly be a Southern woman. We Southern ladies would NEVER go shopping on gameday, much less demand that our hubby join us!

Break out the Jack, ice down some beer, put some ribs (or gator) on the grill...It's football time in Tennessee!!!

Luckily my wife is a big UT fan. She just left to go shopping with her mom and will be back by kickoff.

I started the ribs an hour ago.

It sounds like your wife may have a maturity problem and tries to manipulate you through guilt. I had one of those at one time and now I call her "ex-wife!" Tell her to grow up!

I agree.
But, it was a setup.
She storms out to shop with Mom and gets back at you by spending a large amount of $.
Instant Man-Card Revocation for anybody that is shopping with wife and mother-in-law during football.
It's like by-law 4b or something.

Man. i fill bad for you dude. my wife showed her true colors when she realized how much this ment to me. i guess im just lucky. your ole' lady sounds kinda mean dude. Im not sure i could handle something like that. only thing that suckst is if you dont go im sure she will turn it into a bit argument which will ruin your day.. i say get some friends over to watch the game if possible, cause having friens over will temporarily let you forget about the evil wife you have.. if you dont have no one to watch it with, well dude then that sucks. So i guess you have 2 options, have a peaceful day and go or have a bad day and stay for the game.. damn dude that sucks man.i really fill for you dude
