Should my Wife be mad at me ?

Amigo

I needed another SDB. Informed my wife last night the Bank was only opened from 9-1pm today, whereas I like her to be a signer on the box as well.
We had various other things to do this morning and didn't get out of the House until Noon. We arrived at the Bank around 12:40. I was given access to the new box around 12:50. The vault door is kept open, with only SDB's inside. My wife was standing outside the Vault door like a little lost kitten. I told her to come on in and sit down, she grumbled naah. I said it's going to take more than a couple minutes, come on in. naah! come on !, then she proceeds inside. I had two boxes out along with my Milk crate of new coins to store. I then closed the inner Black glass door that is kept closed during the day, and allows customers to have privacy while going through their box, unlike most banks that have a separate room/closet for privacy. We're in there a few minutes while I"m loading/shifting etc, then she says "I'm afraid they're going to lock us in here". I said annoyingly " No dear, they're not going to do that." I went back to my job, had coins everywhere on the table and floor tying to get it all packed. In a few more minutes I hear her scream "They locked us in" ......... sure enough. There was about 4" above the glass door that I could bang on the safe door. Started yelling for someone "Hey, we're still in here". Thankfully they heard us and opened the combination in a few minutes. I still had things spread out and asked my wife not to open the Black door because I don't want the employees to know what I store. She said no way, I'm getting out of here. I finished up in a few minutes ........... was a very uncomfortable ride home. She's steaming and left the house to get away from me for a while. She's not mad because they locked us up, but because "I didn't listen to her".
Am I nutz, or is she ? Come on, how can she blame me for dismissing what I thought was such a stupid remark about them locking us up. Thankfully they hadn't set the timer or we'd still be in there. As it turned out, they actually have a box of food/water inside there in case it happens. Interesting. I think the whole thing was interesting ...... but it doesn't look like I'm going to get any dinner tonight.

if dinner is the only issue, congratulations.

I'd use a different forum for marital advice.
These are all coin dweebs here.

TexasNationals

That is freaking hilarious, no you did nothing wrong, my wife complains all the time and I just drown her out.

Solution: Buy more coins. Get even another SDB.

COINB0Y

it turned out, they actually have a box of food/water inside there in case it happens.

Imagine, you, the coins, everyone elses' coins, your lover and the chow!

Use the crate, line it with what ever you could find and use it as the toilet.

*perfect weekend!*

Man that would suck to be in there for the weekend WOW take her to sunday dinner and bouth of you will have fun with it.

if you follow some of the guys advice on here about getting more coins and another SDB, you'll be headed for divorce like some here are and then have to sell your collection to pay for the divorce as well as giving wife half of everything.

Pick a better timing next time. Go earlier so there is more time and don't take the wife. The wife is always right, just remember that......

coinsarefun

I will hold comments but.....................dang that was

fcloud

You should have listened to her. Now, you owe her big time.

JupitarCoins

Interesting that they have some food and water in there. What was the food by the way? I think your wife over reacted just a little bit. Who in their right mind would ever think that they(bank employee's) would lock you in. Maybe she's has ESP or something, anyway she was right and I wouldnt harp on the subject. Better to let sleeping dogs lye. LOL

MsMorrisine

she didn't count that as quality time together?

And you've been married how long, again?

littlebear

Man, you have some serious backside kissing to do to live this down. I am reminded of the title to that movie. What's it called? Oh, yes..........."Dead Man Walking." Longacre, aren't you glad this didn't happen to you? Tiffany's would have had a sell-out!

I have one word for you - Flowers!

When momma ain't happy; nobody is happy!

tbarreca

As someone who's been married to his "first wife" for 30+ years, I will tell you that the literal answer to the question posed by the OP is probably:

"On principle!"

Or at least that would be the answer if the question were: "Why is my wife made at me?"

TrustNo1

funny...I think this kind of thing happened to someone else here too

SDSportsFan

She may have initially been crazy to think you'd both be locked in, but the bank proved her correct when they did it.

Therefore, she was right, and nothing you can do will change that.

If I were you though, I'd be more concerned by the fact that your wife is apparently psychic!...so I wouldn't plan anything "funny" if I were you

Dinner out at her favorite restaurant, along with expensive jewelry, will likely be the only remedy.

Lets see here....

Wife Says ""I'm afraid they're going to lock us in here".
Truth: Wife is right, they lock you in.
Verdict: Wife was right.

You say annoyingly "No dear, they're not going to do that."
Truth: You are wrong, they lock you in.
Verdict: You were wrong

Wife say you never listen to her.
Truth See Above!
Verdict: Wife Right. You Wrong.

mental anguish should entitle you to a free box
complain to the manager.

InternetJunky

You should have her play the lotto. If she was able to predict something as strange as that happening she might have a hidden talent.

JaPa

A nice piece of bling should make things right and get you out of the doghouse ..............maybe unless she holds out for a new car or house.

savoyspecial

you know, this is still available on the BST

19Lyds

Yes. She has every right to be mad at you. Next time, listen to her.

Walmann

What if you hadn't been heard and later that night while locked in the vault of love the conversation went something like:

Amigo: It's not so bad it just for the weekend.

Wife: What if the bank fails over the weekend and we're stuck here for longer than the weekend?

Which would be Amigo's reply:

A) That's just stupid.

At least we have my coins to enjoy.

c) Just think of it as a second honeymoon.

Topdollarpaid

the real problem is that you think your wifes comment was stupid. her feelings are as real as yours

wildjag

It's always the guys fault, women never admit to being wrong. Apologize and do something nice for her. Yes, she will bring it up from time to time as well.

Swampboy

<< <i>You should have her play the lotto. If she was able to predict something as strange as that happening she might have a hidden talent. >>



This is true.

MsMorrisine

It was a possibility.

To have denied it could happen, then been proven wrong on the matter....

well, you now have some making up to do.

cinman14

<< <i>Am I nutz, or is she ? >>



The only problem I see is your wife knowing what you have in the SDB before your death...

Type2

Just thinking theres food but you know where would you go #1 or #2.

Absolutely. How many years did it take for you to figure that out? I wish more of you men would just admit defeat. Of course she should be mad, and yes, you're going to hear about it for YEARS! You're going to pay for that for a long time, Buttercup! Well, at least until she backs the car into a tree or the garage door....

rld14

Should your wife be mad at you? No.

Does it matter whether or not she *should* be mad at you? Nope.

Stew

I was raised around mostly females Cousins ,Sisters and there is something to be said about female intuition
I have seen it in action all my life and it is a real phenomenon believe it or not, I have avoided some bad
situations in my life by heeding a female family members warnings
Sounds like your wife has good intuition also.
It is good thing to have in the times in which we live
Thank God you did not end up having to spend the night in there
"I Told You So" would have been the major comment for the entire night

Amigo = nutz

it's not about being locked in, it's about dealing with a dismissive 'tude

a. she expressed concern
b. she predicted it
c. it happened
d. then she was told she was nutz for being unhappy about a, b, and c because in the end you got unlocked, so it was like it never happened, right, and what was the big deal?

enjoy your hubby kibble this week!

"Should my Wife be mad at me ?"

If you have to ask, the answer is probably yes!

SkyMan

Amigo, with all due respect, it appears to me that you are willfully clueless about other people's comfort zones. DIDN'T IT OCCUR TO YOU, that bank employees would HATE to have to go to a 1/2 day of work on SATURDAY? OF COURSE they are going to want to close up shop as soon as possible. Not paying attention to "the little people" at the bank (who were probably just looking at the clock as it ticked down the seconds from 12:50 to 1:00) is step one... step two is then not paying attention to your wife. Yes, I would say your wife has a right to be mad at you. Beg forgiveness, take her out to dinner, and still be prepared for the incident to be brought up in the future.

wot wyfe?

Should my wife be mad at me?


why should you be any different?

seanq

It doesn't matter whether she should or shouldn't be mad, she is, so your best defense now is a good offense. Monday morning, go to that bank, close the SDB and make sure you tell them why (honestly, I feel they deserve to lose your business after that stunt). Then go rent a box at a bank with a more conventional set-up.

That night, be sure to tell your wife how you were so bothered by the incident that you moved your business elsewhere and gave the management a piece of your mind on the way out, and that you have a new SDB where you can be sure such a thing can never happen again. With any luck, she'll appreciate the gestures and redirect any remaining anger from you to the bank. If not... well I find I'm most comfortable sleeping on the couch if I take the rear cushions off first.

You're an insensitive slob and you should be spanked and tied up with panty hose.

I know one thing, if there were free food in there, I'd a sucked that down before I started hollering for help.

As for the missus being mad, I wouldn't worry too much about it. It's good for you. Helps to keep you light on your feet and keeps your wits sharp.
