Caveman_Nick Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 She sounds like a keeper! I have a friend whose wife tries to stem the conversation from time to time. I ask her pretty much the same question....why are you trying to interrupt us from talking about something we enjoy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yo mama Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) I have a friend whose wife tries to stem the conversation from time to time. I ask her pretty much the same question....why are you trying to interrupt us from talking about something we enjoy? Because she (or whoever) feels excluded by the topic. I know I don't like it when I'm around my wife's work friends and all they can talk about is mucus plugs and placenta previas and the such... especially if we're eating. So I get that, but put up with it because it goes both ways if we're out with my work friends. But for some people its more illustrative of control issues, which is a little on the crazy side. That's when you say, "back away, not today, sexy lady." Edited May 1, 2008 by yo mama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's when you say, "back away, not today, sexy lady." I am talking about times and situations when couples are together, and the menfolk are talking about something and the womenfolk are talking about something else. She will come over and try to change our conversation to something else. Sometimes. She can be an odd duck. I've known her a long time....and the behavior doesn't surprise me. It's not all the time that she does this, just sometimes when she has decided that fantasy football is not an appropriate topic for the venue. Of course we all just bowl over her...and if her husband wants to let her take his nuts back to the wimmens circle then so be it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whomper Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 95% of the married people I know beg the question "Why are they married to each other?" Larry David had a great line.

SheikYerbuti Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Larry David had a great line. Someone on his show said to him that marriage is a partnership and he said "Its more of a rivalry" That would certainly play into the idea of "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer".

montster Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 My girlfriend hates the huddle. She wonders why I am constantly fighting with some guy from Oregon. She hates fantasy sports, simply because the men usually end up spending most of the night talking about them whenever a group of friends get together. She actually tried to stop me from coming here, since I already spend my work days doing football related tasks. I asked her why she feels the need to make me stop every little thing I enjoy. That one wasn't pretty. I didn't get any for almsot two weeks. If she pulls that crap over this again, we are done, and she knows it. Next football season could get interesting. wow, i think you're dating my brother's wife. my favorite was when my sister-in-law saw all my video game systems and said to my wife, "you let him play video games?"

millerx Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Funny this was brought up. Just the other day, I mentioned something to her that I thought was interesting. She says, "where do you get all this stuff?' I said, "ah, um the innernets." She is like what? Do you spend all you time looking stupid stuff up on the internet. I said no I have all these people that do it for me. So I had to show her and she really didn't get it. +1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiegie Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Yup. She refers to thehuddle as my imaginary friends. Same here (and this is even after she met some of you guys). (just kidding, she has liked everyone from the huddle that she has met) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 She sounds like a keeper! You gotta see this one. Not the type that I will marry if I don't knock up, but I am gonna keep this one around as long as I possibly can. This is probably my last chance to date a 22 year old, so I can put up with just a little football nagging. But no, I don't for any reason see her lasting past next football season. I am sure I will be way too boring for her by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yo mama Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 (edited) This is probably my last chance to date a 22 year old... I guess. Shallow reasoning, though. A more enlightened mind would realize that a compatible personality - a soul mate, if you will - is really the paramount goal when it comes to romantic relationships because all women all beautiful on the inside... especially from behind.

Chavez Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Same here (and this is even after she met some of you guys). (just kidding, she has liked everyone from the huddle that she has met) But has she met Atomic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Anyway, my wife thinks its OK. I'm pretty sure she's of the opinion that I spend too much time here, but I more or less am pretty sure she's right. She HAS met Huddlers ( she really liked robn - who was at her 30th b-day party and wife, wiegie and wife, sky, Jedi, gil, Frazia, and spain; she's also met the departed Los Gigantes, Bonehand, and DO Jaded, who due to circumstances, I don't think made much of an impression (don't worry guys, I liked all y'all!)) and thinks that overall your a pretty good group of people.
