    Are you asking for yourself or your wife? I hear she's SUPER hot.

    She is! Some of these people have her on their friend's lists (she uses MFP too).

    She's not bi though I don't think. But if you two for whatever reason wanted to do your thing, I promise you that I wouldn't get jealous and that she wouldn't be jealous of you or me being jealous of the things that both of you do, which I imagine would be quite innovative.

    Me either (I mean it all sounds fun until there's a real live va-you-know-what in your face. It's like those "this thread looks fun" gifs) but I think it would be good therapy if we reenacted the Christmas tree shopping scene with the roles reversed. It might be cathartic for both of you. She'd probably feel better if you got jealous of us chatting over trees and you'd probably feel better if you got to tell her that she was just being jealous of your Manther toys.

    Over thanksgiving weekend, I was out and about christmas tree shopping with my wife and she went over to go look at the tall ones and I was by the short ones and there was an attractive middle-aged woman there looking at trees. We struck up a conversation but even though I was attracted and it was a flirty conversation my wife seemed a little upset when got back.

    The woman when she was leaving the aisle said something like "don't be jealous" and my wife shot ME a look. Then she said that the other woman was just jealous of her for having me. Then I told my wife that I thought she was jealous because I was talking to her. My wife told me that I was just jealous of the cougar's ball of yarn or whatever it is they play with and that made me jealous.

    Jealous jealous jealous? Jealous. JSF, jealous.

    I'm jealous your wife has you. 10/10 would bang.

    AGREE TO DISAGREE!

    I was just looking to vent about my jealous, controlling wife. I didn't want to start some whole debate.

    dude is this your first post, you can't vent on MFP without starting world war III Lol, come on now. But don't be angry..........that's a toxic emotion and nobody can make you that way unless you let them.

    If that's the case you didn't give enough information. Your original post indicated that you disrespected your wife and then allowed a complete stranger to do the same.

    If your wife is jealous and controlling, and she is obviously not happy with you, maybe you should consider divorce.

    There it is, folks. Finally the JUST BREAK UP post.

    I had almost lost faith in MFP advice givers.

    IKR? It sure took long enough.

    The whole situation sounds very sophisticated and mature.

    Thank you. I like to think that I take responsibility for me and she needs to take responsibility for her.

    oh.. honey... you don't understand sarcasm?

    I don't know whether or not he does but I'm not sure what you mean by this question.

    I said consider it. Why would you want to be with someone who is jealous and controlling anyway?

    Nevermind.

    Oh my god. It's like you're inside my mind. First the thing about my childhood, and now my deepest fantasy. Deep in the piles of pines, the needles and sap causing the histamines in my blood to surge and boil, watching fearfully as my wife is enthralled by a beautiful stranger . . . O COME ALL YE FAIIIIIIIITHFUL!

    First of all, if a woman ever finished speaking with my husband and then had the audacity to tell me don't be jealous when I showed up, she'll be eating my fist.

    THIS

    I am possessive

    Grrawr

    4! i have 4 ppl!

    I wonder if any of the women who say they would attack this lady have considered that 1. The other woman might beat the crap out of them, have a weapon, etc. and 2. The person who attacked first would definitely get arrested. Not worth it over this situation.

    and also that it might muss your hair and you might break a nail, and be LESS likely to compete successfully for the peen in question.

    Nails can be fixed, I just need somebody to hold my earrings. :laugh:

    i'm anti-social I really dont know anything about actually going out of my way to flirt with someone. sounds strange, especially when your already with someone.

    Based on what someone was saying earlier I think it's childhood emotional trauma.

    But don't you have needs? Needs for love and attention and validation? Wouldn't you like someone to come in hard and fast and sweep you off your feet?

    I imagine that you must be very ripe to be taken advantage of, thoroughly and remorselessly, and I caution you to be careful about people who approach you.
    Wait, are you just opening fortune cookies and typing the fortunes in here?
  • That is an unfortunate side-effect at times.... my ex was always jealous, even of the men that I worked with!

    stop making it all about you

    jealous much?

    you're right. you go on and flirt with women right in front of your wife and do some "harmless touching"

    it's not disrespectful at all!

    and she's psycho for being a little jealous of some chick coming up to her and mouthing off

    YOU. ARE RIGHT.

    Thank you :flowerforyou: I've been planning on showing her some of the supportive responses to teach her that she's wrong, and I think this really encapsulates what I've been trying to say.

    This is wise, OP. Very wise. Showing her that public opinion is that there is no reason for her to have hurt feelings over this. Compelling logical arguments should be the order of the day and are sure to end this silly argument.
  • It is natural to find other people attractive but openly showing attraction and flirting is very disrespectful to your spouse. I would never disrespect my husband like that. And if I did show some other man I was attracted to him and flirted with him all in my husband's face...if this man did have the temerity to then say to my husband 'don't be jealous' it is likely that my husband, an easy-going, laid-back kind of man usually, would knock his teeth down his throat.

    Basically you and this woman dogged your wife out and then she had the nerve to go rub it in your wife's face. :noway:

    I understand sarcasm perfectly well. I saw the family guy episode where they explained it.

    hahahah okay I like you. Family Guy is the way to my heart.
