  • Problems with the Wife

    I will be first to admit I'm all for equal rights in marriage and giving the wife power, but sometimes I think my wife has too much. For one thing, love-making is always on her terms. Whenever I feel a bit "frisky" and snuggle up to her, she's as cold as a Norweigian herring on ice. Yet sometimes when I'm trying to take a nap after working all day cleaning the house and taking care of the kids, she'll come home from work and want to pounce me.

    Then sometimes when I try to leave the house, she will demand where I am at all times. She even went so far as to give me one of those "kid cell phones" that have GPS units in them, so she can track me whenever she wants. The thing is, she never tells me where she goes. Sometimes she won't come home from hours...sometimes she stays out all night. I wonder if she's having an affair?

    Can anyone give me some Christianly advice how I can take better control of my marriage?

    Re: Problems with the Wife

    Sounds like you need to spend a few hours with her 'discussing and correcting' (mind your knuckles) her behavior followed by a few days non-stop in her prayer closet.
    Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
    Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
    Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
    Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
    Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
    Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

      The first sentence of your post shows the problem: you think you and your wife are equals. You must look to the Bible for guidance.

      Ephesians 5

      22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
      23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
      24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
      Your wife doesn't make the rules, you do, because you are the husband. She should be submitting to you, not the other way around. Stand up for yourself, and show your wife who's the boss! God will have it no other way.
      A baby is a human being, not a stem cell!

      Psalm 139:19-20
      Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
      For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.

        Dwayne, this is what I've been trying to warn you about for years now. When you wallow in sin like voting Democrat, doing yoga, and letting your wife do any thinking beyond what pie she should bake for you, you shouldn't expect a good result.

        The woman needs to be subjugated, in Biblical terms.
        Who Will Jesus Damn?

        Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

        Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

          Brothers and Sisters: There may be other factors to consider here. She'll "come home from work".........

          -What sort of work does she do?

          -Does she make a lot of money at it?

          -Does she give you an allowance?

          -How much?

          -Is she all hot and sweaty when she comes in the door?

          -Is her pouncing "playful" or "demanding"?

          -Is she a comely lass?

          -Does she expect a spanking from time to time?

          -What does her pie smell like?

          -Since you do all the inside work, that implies she does the outside work. If so, does she keep the bush well trimmed?

              The only problem I see in this relationship is you are an uppity, sexist male trying to control your wife according to Biblical patriarchal concepts which are both irrelevant to the modern age and mindlessly cruel. She has the right to do whatever she wants. If she is sleeping with whoever she wants, that is her perogrative. Monogamy is monotony. My wife My'Shell and I enjoy an open relationship. We are well-known among the lesbian swinging crowd here in Berkeley and the Bay region. We of course, have never been happier. Since when do you see me angry? You see my point. <---racist smiley, should be brown-skinned!!!

                Re: Problems with the Wife

                Wow...so much fail in one thread. Nobody has it right! Look, the answer is simple...TALK TO HER. Tell her what you feel, without communication, a marriage is nothing.
                Look, I don't know how the whole working thing is going, and I don't know what works for you. But for me, I work, My wife stays home and takes care of our child. We agreed that we would be homeschooling her, so having somebody home all the time is a must. I am also the only one who went to college, so it makes sense that I would go to work since I can make more money than my wife. Now, only having one income (and not that big of one) is not easy, and I can't afford to get nice things like 72" flat screen TV's. or a boat, or a Porsche. But we are fine with that. we know that happiness is not found in the things you get, but in family.
                Now, just to clear some things up... if my wife wanted to go to college and work...I would be fine with that, but I would then be staying home to watch my daughter. Also, I firmly believe that while the man is the head of the household, he must respect his wife (and vice versa). He must listen to her ideas and thoughts and use them to help him make the final decision where needed.

                Anyway. so paraphrase...talk to your wife, let her know what you are thinking, listen to her side of the story, and come up with a solution between the two of you.

                  I fear that you've been tainted by your Yuppie friends if these are examples of what you aspire to.

                  Most of us here are perfectly happy with our 60" HDTVs, bass boats, and F250 4x4s.

                    Ah yes, just as I suspected...a troll. You sir, do not know me. I have no "yuppie" friends. Most of my friends are actually quite wealthy (possession wise) in comparison to me, They all think I'm nuts for not making my wife get a job.
                    Now, do you honestly think that God wants us to be striving for worldly possessions? Because if so, I suggest you read Matthew 6:24. There is nothing wrong with gaining nice things here on earth, but if you put more effort into that than you do the things of God, then worldly possessions become a false idol.

                      You really are clueless how it all works. The more you give of yourself to God, the more you get. I have a 2300 acre farm, no mortgage. A tractor trailer, paid for. A car collectors dream garage, filled with marvelous automobiles from the 50's to current day, over 32 Ferrari's, some exceedingly rare. I could go on but that would be silly petty bragging. You think I got this from hard work alone? God gave it to me for being a True Christian™. I was flabbergasted when I visited Rev. Osborne's palatial home a month back, made my spread look like trailer trash. God and the Rev. are real tight.

                        Actually, if you read my post, I made it quite clear that possessions are not a bad thing to have, it is the pursuit of possessions that is evil. And yes, while I did not say it ( I did not think I would have to explain it to a "True Christian™") I do realize that as we work hard for the Lord he rewards us. Please, get more info from me before attacking me...you are building quite the history of attacking people. A Christian should strive to model themselves after God, God loves people, he does not attack them.

                              Ah yes, I see a lot of that from the other members of this forum...Personal attacks because you are backed into a corner with no way out. Sir, in case you could not figure it out, I am a Christian, and I am offended that you would call a brother a jackass, a Heathen, and a Sinner, that is hardly a loving attitude. God must be ashamed of what you are typing here. I know I am ashamed that you would call yourself a Christian and attack a brother. I hope this is not synonymous with too many other members in this forum, otherwise Brother Hutchins may need to step up the work on his flock.
                              Now, what I was talking about in my last posts is quite clear, but if you are still confused after reading them, I will be more than willing to clear it up.
