FUCK HER GET A NEW WIFE

I loved guns before I loved women and I'll love them after all women are gone, too. God I love big guns so much.

Divorce/annulment. Clearly not the woman I married who said we shared values

I’d say something along the lines of, ‘Bless your heart…’

I would wonder why my wife is suddenly trying to boss me around instead of the supportive teamwork marriage we’ve had until now.

My wife carries more than I do.

Here's a simple way to set a precedent.

If she objects, then buy a gun.

Next objection... another gun.

It's a win-win. She gets to bitch and you get more guns.

Yer welcome.

If the wife had ever or ever says that, well... there's a reason that evrything a judge would "grant" in a divorce has been in her name, for decades. Not actually liking the fucking house that SHE paid for with HER money makes it even easier to say "adios". (bonus- youngest is over 18 and graduates this year, plus SHE has more residual income than I do...)

Glad I don't need to entertain that issue.

Ex's daddy was a big city cop. When she asked about "protection" she wasn't talking about condoms..

Fucking ignore her

As with nearly everything else, I'd tell her "Quiet broad!" and keep on truckin'.

My job is to lead her and protect her, not obey her.

Posted: 3/14/2024 9:46:15 PM EDT

She would not end up as my wife.

It is as simple as that.

Yeah....

Whomever OP is referring to should have addressed this before putting a ring on it.

Like Dr. Laura advises, a minimum of 6 months pre-marital counseling and "dating" (not shacking up, long distance, friends) for at least 1 1/2 - 2 years before marriage.

My wife wasn't a fan when I first started carrying, but she came around and has a carry permit herself.

my wife carries a gun so thats not likely going to happen, but if it did id tell her to stay in her own lane

My wife was indifferent in the beginning, now shoots with daughter and daughter in law and has even taken classes, she has probably shot more in the last year than I have. Carries almost daily.

Mrs BrownShoes and I took the necessary course (at the time) together.
When at the gun range, we both scored exactly the same. If not for that, it would have been a long ride home.

And they wonder why some guys don't want them to vote........

I would immediately tell her "I'll do what I want" followed by "please don't say anything that bossy and fucking stupid ever again". Probably why I'm on wife #3. Thankfully, this one doesn't try to be my fucking supervisor.

I'd tell her she sounded like my ex-wife. Soon-to-be ex-wife that is.

There’s not much that can’t be reconciled over. Self defense and family protection is not up for debate.

Eject, eject, eject.

It all depends on the circumstances.

My wife was very anti-gun when we first got married. It was because she was raised in a family that had no exposure to firearms and she fell into the typical MSM narrative. I knew she was very conservative, and very intelligent, as well as reasonable and it would just take a bit of time to educate her. If I would have gone hard…….and tossed her out ……I would have made a huge error.

That was 35 years ago. Currently, she has had her own CCW for many years. She loves to train, she is very disciplined, and she is a more accurate shot than I am.

My son had a very similar experience. Years ago, when he first started dating his wife…….she wasn’t “anti” but she certainly thought he was a bit of caveman when she learned he had a CCW and was always prepared. She went so far as good-hearted teasing. Her family doesn’t know damn thing about firearms, so she thought we were a bit paranoid. After a friend of ours was murdered, she has become a believer……real fast. Nowadays, I have seen her feel my son’s waist if she is nervous or ask him if he is prepared.

So……..guys……don’t be to quick to judge………but do pay attention and look at the whole package.
