Irrational?

OK - here's the deal. I need wives in good solid marriages to tell me if this is irrational or not:
I came home from work to find my wife "go-karting" my new $5k mower around in our 4 acre yard that I've painstakingly groomed and worked. It looks like ass. She even attempted a few hydroplanes through standing water. Then she ran the mower over to my shop and left it there dripping in mud and completely dry of gas. Not happy. So I get my mower back into shape and proceed to remow it the next day - I had to - she left so many places just unmowed - she figured I could get to it later. Did I mention the yard was rutted and scalped? Besides the tire tracks, it looked like drunken shriners had a kart session on my turf. (mind you, I said NOTHING negative, but thanked her for the help)

OK - she meant to save me some time, but it cost me another tank of gas and a few more hours of my time. She was furious with me that I remowed the whole thing. (irrational?) We seem to have gotten over it. The neighbors came by the next day and asked who "farmed" our yard. They laughed and joked - I said nothing but took a glass full of water over my head - just for being there I imagine.

So a week passes - she mentions it to my mom. They laugh. I laugh (wrong!). I happen to mention I had to take a couple of pictures of it before I fixed it because no one would believe the horror. Uh oh.... so now we're into day 7 of her being a complete bad person to me. Says stuff about how I lost her trust . Crimony, you'd think I slept with her sister the way she is acting about this.

Lesson I learned: Don't embarrass your wife. No matter how funny and HARMLESS you might think it is.

I've apologized profusely, but enough is enough. It's a fuggin yard and a couple of snapshots of drunken shriner tracks!

So is she being irrational or am I a completely insensitive ass and just not getting it:confused:?
 
Should have dragged her out in the yard then rubbed her face in a rut and yelled "bad girl" over and over. Then have anal sex with her over the dirty mower.
 
She is cheating on you!
You don't have kids do you?
 
Oh shit. I have 2 kids. She isn't cheating - they home school - so no time for that! Not putting anything!
Now why am I teh suck?
 
Home schooled???? Ohhhh

Afraid what the kids will say about you if they go to school or maybe what they'll say about Mommy dearest.
 
happily married woman here.

here's my take on it:
You're wrong. apologize.

the end.

No, they are very bright - both scored 99% across the boards on Tera Nova. The bumpkinville public school they could attend can't keep up with them. So my wife and I took matters into our own hands (I have 2 masters, she has 1). They also attend a private school 1 day a week.

I conceded the point - apologized many times and even explained why I was sorry. But she evidently likes being angry.

So what say you? Irrational? (No, she won't see this and I won't use it to my advantage. Just getting another perspective.)
 
Just give her some chocolate. Woman love chocolate then squeeze her but and ask her is she is going to eat the whole thing! She will completely forget the whole lawn issue!

look, i have no idea if you making fun of her is a pattern that she's just sick to death of or if she's making a mountain out of a mole hill.
you apologized, now just be nice and it'll blow over. don't make it worse .

I might have that problem coming up. My kids are starting school this year and next and then another after that. There are some real hillbillies running around the school not sure how this will work out. Private school be pricey.
 
Woman are fucking crazy. There's no point in trying to figure it out because there is no logic behind it. If you don't believe me read Stilleto's reply. I gave up a long time ago. It's easier that way. Just let it go. Unless you don't want to remain married.

The funny part is then the girls can't figure out why we don't listen to them.

We don't listen because it's not worth the fight. Just agree and move on.
 
Thanks, all for your replies (esp you Stilleto!) I surreptitiously verified that I do not make it a habit - so I will let it go (and hope she does the same). In my 10 years of marriage, this is the worst thing I've done (and she confirms that statement) - so I don't think I'm doing too terribly.

Public schools are getting silly - good luck with that, Creepus. Let me know if you ever have any questions about good home-school curriculum.
 
I think maybe your wife need more activities to fill out her day.
If she has this much time and energy to hold such a grudge, discuss it with your mother and continue to be pissed at you because she doesn't have the same lawn mowing ability - she has too much free time to dwell on shit.

Lost her trust?

:rolleyes:

She sounds like an immature brat that's too used to getting her way.

she is
 
sometimes johnny wont load the dishwasher right - or do things exactly the way I do them, but I see that its somethign that i dont HAVE to do for once - so you shouldnt have redone it, or really bitched about it. Sometimes you just have to swallow your pride, what you WANT to say, and smile and say "thanks".

however, she needs to have a better sense of humor about things. Crap. I cant believe she is till pissed and you lost "her trust."

tell her that you'll REALLY give her something to "lose her trust" over. lol

she's GOT to know she's being rediculous.
 
Say this and let me know how it works out for ya.

I didn't ever complain... just redid it and thought it was funny (as insensitive as that seems to have been).

I'd tell her to let me teach her to mow the grass if she wants to; otherwise leave it to me if she doesn't know how.
 
Yeah - gave that a try years ago (and just after we bought the new one earlier this year). She destroyed a couple of mowers and just says she will do it her way and that patterns (and avoiding rocks and stumps) isn't as important as I think.

Thanks all - you've helped me talk myself out of this tree.

What you've got to do then is disable the lawn mower so she can never start it. If she asks why it starts for you, tell her the lawn mower told you it doesn't like being abused by her.

Your telling me she mows over stumps? I thought you said she had a masters degree? What in, may I ask?
 
Well is sure the crap isn't mechanical engineering or horticulture! Elementary education.

Disabled it - actually, hid the key and pulled the spark plug wire. :) Good advice.
 
lol... and the storm has passed. Thanks for entertaining me during these dark few days. This board is uniquely fun and hella informational.
