I'm not the only one that in a conversation with someone calls the wife the old lady   I did it yesterday at the market and didn't know she was standing behind me  :o  ;D

I have done it, not good.  Don't try to smooth it over with " babe I didn't mean you are getting old, I meant that after 27 years you are old news you know more like the same old lady type of thing. Didn't help in the least.

coxy just a word of advice, my wife just turned fifty and has and still is having a tough time with it, the farthest I've went was to say "well it beats the alternative", I wouldn't even go that far if I was you  ;).

My wife was saying something about being as big as a cow.  "I think your a pretty heifer" was not the correct response.  After my ears quit ringing it was a real quiet ride home and evening.

I've been giving relationship advice here on the FF I didn't think anyone was listening. Makes me proud. :D :D :D ;)

When you're watching tv with the wife and she looks at some woman on there and say I wish I was as skinny as her the correct answer is not "I wish you was too ". Takes awhile to kinda convince them you was only kidding.

Golly you guys,  I gotta make sure the old ball & chain doesn't know who I am associating with at the forum.

My bride wanted to know why I was laughing hysterically, and I told her I related to the posts I was reading.  She asked me to read some of the better ones, she wanted to laugh too.....   I'm now posting from my camper outside. LOL 8)

Have you ever went to say something and were thinking of saying something else? My wife was being funny and I was going to jokingly say "that was stupid". I was thinking she might take it seriously so instead I thought I would say " you are silly". Instead of either if those the words that came out of my mouth was a mix of the two, "you are stupid" spilled out of my mouth. That was about 20 years ago. I will let you know when I'm not in trouble anymore  :o :D

I briefly mentioned the topic to Pat.  She did not seem to be mused so I dropped the subject.   :-X

Lynn you're wise beyond your years  :).  I'd be lost without my wife, but alas, I'm still a male, most of it she puts up with and what she don't I can't blame her for just me  ::).

When I talk about my crazy friends everyone thinks of some of my buddies that they know. But i's sure gots a bunch of them on here!!

It's good to be wise and I love and respect my wife but I got to prod the hornets nest every now and again just to remind her I'm not some refined gentleman from the upper crust. She steams for a few seconds and then realizes what I'm up to.............and then I worry about my next meal!!   :D

I call my lady friend "Old Girl" and she calls me "Old Guy"

... and then we forget what we were talking about.

It's a comfortable relationship. :)

I mentioned the topic to my wife last night. She just shook her head, said you're a idiot. Then she said what about the time she was about 4 months pregnant with the first boy and she said she was feeling fat.  I said no, I like the look, you've bagged up nicely.  She didn't get it so I mistakenly explained it. Evidently she didn't enjoy being compared to a prize winning dairy cow at that point in time.

10 minutes later she gives me a kiss and said remind me again why I love you so I know why I haven't slit your throat during the night. I do love the woman, she can dish it out too. Got to have some humor if you are going to make the long haul in wedded bliss.

(Kind of) a funny story, one of my best friends has a nervous "querk" about him, he laughs when he gets nervous.  He's been kicked out of the maternity ward by nurses for more than one of their 5 children's deliveries, my wife was working for one of them.  Every time his wife would scream in pain he'd start laughing, this wasn't intentional just a reaction which my wife tried to explain to the rest of the staff but it didn't help much, they still led him out the door.  In his defense though we were moving cattle one day and a cow got caught up in wire, in the process of trying to cut her loose he got caught up too, she was dragging him by one leg across cornstalks while I was trying to cut the wire (as was he) but he was laughing his head off the whole time while bouncing through the field on his back  :D.

On the way here she will be all excited to meet me and enjoy our beaches. We'll talk, she'll laugh, joke around then kill you so you won't be making that trip back. :D :D

Overnite, I went from a "gone from home a lot " job to a retired 24/7/365 caregiver when the wife suffered a severe stroke. Needless to say, there have been a few (well maybe a bunch) of "moments". I had to learn to "bite my tongue" (old saying). We have survived 18 years without any homicide....

All I can add to this is when the wife and I are watching the news and there ia a story about some poor old boy being dispatched by a spouse, her standard response is,"must have been somthing he said"  :D
Old doesn't bother me, its the ugly that's a real bummer.
