My wife's best friend!!!

[B1gJ1m]

Guys, here's the deal. I need some advice and suggestions on how to handle a delicate situation. My wife and I have been married for four years and a have a two year old daughter. We both work eveyday and have very busy and stressful corporate management jobs. Everyday we start at about 5:30 am getting up and getting ready for work, we get our daughter ready for day care and out the door we go. We get home after work between 6:00-6:30 in the evening. Our daughter has a bedtime of 8:30. So here's where the problem is. Starting at 8:30pm until bedtime, usually around 10:00pm is really the only time my wife and I have to talk and spend any time together and like clock work, my wife's best friend calls almost everynight at 8:30-8:45 anf talks until 10:00 or so. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY NIGHT!!!! My wife's friend is single and apparently has alot of free time on her hands. I have expressed the concerns that I have over never getting any time with my wife and she replies, "well it's not like I called her, she's lonely" On weekends she calls our house three and four times a day. How can I get her stop calling every night and stealing my time with my wife? Thanks.

Your wife needs to handle that one. Sit down and explain to her that you want some "quality" time together, just the two of you, and her friend calling every night is just too much. Surely she will see that. Most women would love that attention. Then, turn the phone off.

Well, your situation is not uncommon. Your wife's friend needs a boyfriend, you know anyone? When you lose that communication with your wife, it could lead to problems. Two things that woman like is romance and money, I suggest on the weekends to take her out somewhere that she will enjoy, maybe the mall or dinner? During the week, just romance her EX: roses, cook her dinner, or take her out. You shouldn't have to settle for 2nd, tell your wife, she is your best friend, above all other, after awhile, she might think the same. Remember one thing, woman and guys both need friends outside the marriage. Otherwise you will smother each other. Remember, how you first won her heart, just keep that up through the years!

That's a pretty tough question

No easy answer. You've already spoken to her about it. oh and the "she called me" bit doesn't fly because it's not that difficult to end a phone call.

I think you need to be a little inventive on this one because there's no sure fire way of fixing this.

Have you suggested at least giving you half of the time?

It's obviously not very considerate of her to spend ALL of your quality time with her friend.

 

[hotttsauce]

Damn, that's come quality advice all the way around!

Tell her your headed up here to hang out with me and Jerry for a weekend, that will for sure shake things up!

Have you suggested a threesome? Just kidding. My wife just stopped taking calls from the chick and she got the message. But then again my wife was getting tired of talking to her all of the time.

 

[B1gJ1m]

Hell no Hottsauce, she thinks you and Jerry are bad influences on me. She say every time I hang out with you two, I suddenly have a growth spurt (Not sure what she means by that) But thanks for the advice. Its just tough because her friend is single and way too much free time on her hands.

Amen to that Main!!! Maybe I need to spend hours on the phone ignoring my wife. Or I could try to get her friend a hookup. She's smokin hot, works out like a freak, but can't find a guy.

Yea, last weekend was pretty rough What time did you tell Mrs. Main you'd be home from hanging out with me again????

That's because she's always on the phone. (sorry, couldn't resist )

 

[B1gJ1m]

Hey Hotttsauce, she's available. I just want her to stop calling my house every night. She did graduate from WVU Law, she's financially secure and very nice. Please take her off my hands.

Ewwww I have a bad track record with those! Lost me now! Your on your own bruhddah!

I got an idea .... all of your wives (lmao) have been hottties, tell her, her new clothes look bad or ask her if she has gained weight, that outta get her to show you more attention!

 

[oldfella]

Send her down here to me! She will never bother you again. if she gets out of line with me I feed her to the crocs in the creek. It is next to my gym.

So she works out like a freak, perfect, I own a gym she can stay here!! And crocs love freaks!!
