    I don't get put in the dog house I just get no sex. I tried doing the same once and she pissed herself laughing in my face. Needless to say i didn't withhold sex longer than 20 minutes!

    My Granddad used to always say that he would never go to sleep on an argument, so he would always go to bed at night, turn to his wife and say, "Apology accepted darling" :pac:

    He was an absolute troll, I should nearly make a thread for some of this shit he used to do :D

    Well that sorts that out then :D:D
    Your wife is giving you the silent treatment? How old is she 5?
    Agreed, it's childish. I think its more of an old Irish traditional way of handling things. Nag then ignore. My maternal grand mother did the exact same thing, she wouldn't talk to my grandad for days. Mad stuff.

    I work on the time- honoured principle of each 5 minutes of nagging pushes out projected job completion date by one week.

    I'm the exact same. I feel that if I do something after a woman nags I'll be teaching her that if she nags it will get done.

    My mum learnt this, the girlfriend isn't too bad at nagging. She learnt quickly that it will get done at some point when I get a chance, if she wants it done now then she knows where she is.

    I've been in the bad books since yesterday morning & am getting the silent treatment.
    My offence was ignoring the new Supernanny discipline procedures as we'd discussed for the kids.

    Dude, f*ck the "ah ha ha I'm in the Doghouse...."

    you're not minding your f*cking kids.

    It's people with your attitude that have kids acting the bollix.

    Discipline your f*cking kids.

    She's making an effort to raise their children correctly and he views it as 'nagging' -he's hardly a shining example himself

    A few months ago, I got a big cheque in from a client and went out on the piss with the lads. One night turned into two, two into three, three became four.

    On the Tuesday morning, I landed home, wrecked, reeking of booze & penniless.

    "Where the fuck have you been?" said the missus.

    "Out with the lads - I needed to blow off some steam - I need time with my friends. We're married, not chained to each other" I replied.

    "Well you could have at least called - I mean, how would you like it if you didn't see me for four days?" she said.

    "I wouldn't mind at all" I said.

    So Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday went by and I didn't see her.

    By Saturday, the swelling had died down and I could just about see her out of my left eye.

    I didn't say he was, I'm just surprised that his wife has decided to not talk to him because he made a mistake.

    The wife would want to lighten up and accept her husband for what he is and not to be trying to "supernanny" the man she loves.

    And since when did it become acceptable for women to put their partners in the dog house??? Jesus we are meant to be mature adults here not kids.

    I'm glad that my partner and I can act like reasonable people and talk about issues instead of behaving like spolit brats and ignoring each other.

    wtf?

    Three months. She wouldn't shave for me and so I replaced her special area yoghurt she had in the fridge with Immac.

    A GF of old was going to America for 3 months on a course, I casually said you will be on your own if you meet someone I don't mind if you have a fling.

    MOTHER OF GAWD is all I want to say. We never recovered from my gaff.

    i just close my earlids when the wife is talking

    The tried and true three words normally get me out.

    'Yes dear'. And 'Sorry'.

    Rinse and repeat - I frequently do :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭Colmustard


    A friend in work came in with a mad hangover I asked what were you doing, I went to the local on Friday and ended up in Navan and got home yesterday Which was a Monday, I asked what did you tell your missus, "i'm still telling her and will be for a week"

    I got cried at lately because I "don't care about the music she likes". il point out that when this happened she was wearing headphones and I dont even know who it was..

    My last GF flipped at me because I wanted to go into town and do some shopping. Apparently, I was rubbing it in her face that I had more money than her.

    About twenty minutes later, she realised how silly she was being and apologised.

    No offense, but people who end up "in the doghouse" are just unbelievably whipped. In my experience, women have a lot more respect for you if you don't pander to the silent treatment bs...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 653 ✭✭✭girl in the striped socks


    I don't do nagging. If I ask for something to be done & it's not then I'll give it a go myself. The only thing I'm not really comfortable doing is anything to do with electrics. I'll change a light bulb alright but I won't change a fuse.
    And I don't do the doghouse either. It's ridiculous.
    However I do have a friend that has a massive row with her husband at least once a month. And she uses withholding sex as punishment. The poor fcuker has callouses on his hands from relieving blue ball syndrome :)

    Hopefully it backfires and he bangs somebody else.

    Went out with OH to pub & on to nightclub with a gang ( all mid 30s) to celebrate the birthday... Old friend (ex :0) from years back; London; who I hadn't seen in forever, walked in who I greeted ( apparently) with HUGE enthuiasm.I do Recall the party breaking up shortly after that & I went happily with OH to bed.
    Next morning woke alone, calls to wish OH happy Birthday went unanswered : all confused. Went into bathroom & looked in mirror. It was only then I remember ripping my top off & writing their number on my chest in lipstick. :0
    Took DAYS of well deserved apologising to empty voicemails & grovelling to recover the situation :0

    She had the cheek to tell me one night that I could do with getting lessons in holding a grudge properly because I had a row with my fiancé & I was still speaking to him!
    She's worth her weight in gold for entertainment.

    I've never spent more than 10 mins in the doghouse. You need more charm, sex appeal and chocolate, OP.

    Listen to this ^^^^. If you are unsure how to ascertain the holy trinity as we like to call it, do as I do...I dip my willy in chocolate, then get out my tin whistle and I do a snake charmer impression as my willy goes up. Good bye dog house. Never fails!

    It was that goddamn 'I had the time of my life' song from that dancey movie. It's always that one.

    I had that before. She also woke up during the night and cried because she dreamt I died, even though I was lying beside her. She should have woken me up the silly mare.

    The "silent treatment" is not an intentional punishment or immature reaction. We are having a pointless argument that neither of us will win, I am sick of talking about it, I want to forget about it, not talk to you for a while not to punish you but because I am still pissed off and not in good form, leave me in peace to calm down and gather my thoughts... even if you try to have a constructive conversation, after arguing I know I am cranky and need to step back, not for my sake, for his. Taking the time to let yourself cool down emotionally and tackle any real issues later is not immature.
