I think she has been unwell for some time. Very young.
Poor woman had retinal cancer as a child and has since suffered from cancers of the bladder, lung and throat. RIP
Not well enough it seems. She can sort the thing out herself now though, tyres, services and everything else that goes with car ownership including finding the best insurance quotes, all of which I used to do for her. She can also pay for it all too which will be a first.She obviously knows you too well.
You must give me the name of your charm school.
This is a woman who used to own a mini cooper S and drives like a bloody rally cross champ...she loves to drive and drives fast when she can. The car I wanted her to get is the same car that she currently has, just with better performance, suspension and brakes. One car would have been absolutely fine for popping to the shops or the commute to work, the other would have been much more fun and a more pleasant place to be when we go out for trips as a family, or any longer journeys than just a few miles AND equally capable of popping to the shops in....I was very disappointed in her decision to put it mildly.Umm... yes, it is unreasonable, as is calling your wife a bitchShe sounds very much like me, no interest in cars at all, I just need them to be comfortable to drive and reliable. I don't know what an Abarth is but she's probably happy and confident driving something she knows and quite possibly thought that the car would become more yours than hers. Don't mean to be harsh (well, yes, I probably do) but grow up, for goodness sake!
Have you asked her - calmly and without any accusations - why she made the decision she did? Just because the decision isn't right for you, it might be right for her...
Woman buys car...not suitable for partner...and cannot be bribed with largesse. Sounds like a man on his way out to me
Yeah, he won't be going out in her car, though...Woman buys car...not suitable for partner...and cannot be bribed with largesse. Sounds like a man on his way out to me
On the positive side ,imagine the money you will save on the car . You can buy her a new Ironing board , Iron , washing machine & Tumble dryer .
Man gives woman most of the money to buy new car so hardly a bribe to offer to pay a bit more to ensure that the car she decides to spend our money on is one that I want to drive too.Woman buys car...not suitable for partner...and cannot be bribed with largesse. Sounds like a man on his way out to me
Out is not a problem Fran, I dont have a need to be in a relationship as you probably understand yourself. She does however, so I think the pain would mostly be felt elsewhere than by me.Woman buys car...not suitable for partner...and cannot be bribed with largesse. Sounds like a man on his way out to me
I drive a boring cheap car as it is just a work tool and I thought it would be selfish to spend a lot on a car that nobody wants but me...I can feel another alfa romeo coming on now though, as I was wrong apparentlyOn the positive side ,imagine the money you will save on the car .

I agree , but IMHO Murray will win . He surely has flown over wales at some time ? therefore qualifies ?
