When she says do it, you do it..it's not the 9$, it's the weeks of torment afterwards and having the blender still in the house to remind her

If I ever get married I hope it isn't to someone that let's the existence of a blender impact them in any way shape or form. And if it does, they at least have the emotional maturity to be able to handle that themselves, because it is so stupidly trivial.

Inb4 you don't understand you need to care for your wife. There a difference between caring for the emotional and physical needs of your partner, and enabling whatever childish dependency that is.

My ex wife would make me do things like this all the time. It happens once in a while in every relationship I'm sure, but if it's routine it's not worth it. I used to say I had a boss and work and a boss at home but my boss at work was much more reasonable. I realized how much bullshit I was putting up with under the guise of "happy wife, happy life".

This gives big "are the straights okay" vibes

Dude, if your SO is mad at you for weeks because you didn't sell a $9 blender, your relationship is incredibly unhealthy.

Or you're both mature adults and can crack fun at each other over an obviously dumb thing like a $9 blender...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

That's not what was being discussed.

I'd just throw the blender in the bin, and get $9 cash out somewhere, and say I sold it.
