Forums - Gaming - I bought a TV instead of a game console. Wife won the discussion

There is always a sucker waiting to be parted away from his money.

Wife always wins. Get used to it.

Only if you let her wear the pants. There's a billion woman out there. No need to stay in something that doesn't suit your needs.

Jesus Christ, you’re implying divorce over a game system XD some things in life are indeed more important than game systems, which are glorified toys to begin with

I'm not implying shit lol. I'm just saying that when it comes to a relationship, neither side has to "lose" all the time and be controlled by the other party. That we all have the ability to choose someone that we want and who will ultimately lead to better compatibility.

Yes you were. “The wife always wins” is a saying/joke, a common one too. That’d be like you getting as upset about someone saying, “Don’t worry if Plan A fails, there’s 25 more letters in the alphabet.” You either have no understanding of that phrase or are thinking wayyyy too deeply over a nothing statement

I think I know what I was implying. I'd make a joke about telepathy, but even if you had it, you'd still get it wrong because that's NOT what I was implying. 

There is a difference between generalizing a thought (which is what I was doing. Notice how I used the word "you" and not "he"?) and speaking directly about one person and their life.

Exactly, it was just a joke. Actually neither side has to win, it is just a matter of both sides being able to dialogue and manage decisions.

I have a great relantionship with my wife, never had to use any kind of "I wear the pants" card.

Also its about knowing that sometimes youre going to get the final call, sometimes not. Like, I dont even try to argue about house decoration hahaha.

And I would never put videogames above my family relantionship.
