the creation of a monster

[lamuskrat]

Yesterday was my b-day. So for my B-day I wanted to go shoot. I had like six pistols that had never been shot plus one AR15 I built. I took my wife (we are legally separated but still do everything as man and wife). She was gonna shoot her 38 I bought her for protection. She had never been to a range and target shot before. She had difficulty with the 38 as it was DAO and new to her. Then switching between calibers I brought my Sig 1911-22 in to shoot. After she shot it she fell in love with it. She kept telling me to give it to her or "lets go buy me a gun". I'm like wait , its my b-day and you get the present. Well being the man that I am I broke down and bought her a Ruger PB22. She loves it. Now she wants more bullets and today wants me to take her shooting again.

Oh I can see right now this is gonna be costly.....LOL

Just out of curiosity, can you explain your situation with the woman in your story?

Congratulations. Maybe this could help get you two back together.

She left me threatening to divorce me (again, we were divorced once before), but she held off because she says we get along better now. She lives in BR and I in Gonzales, but we are together basically every weekend. She has cost me a fortune in other ways. Never figured she would care for shooting and guns though.

No we are separated not divorced and as a Christian I wouldn't bed woman that way. Like I said she still is my wife and I have needs.....you figure out the rest....

Happy birthday, brother. Seems like a tricky situation.
Just be glad you did not get her hooked on a rare caliber!

I've known a few couples who live this way. It's unusual, but it works for them and has for many years.

Power couples do too. Gabby Gifford the representative from Arizona who was shot, lived this way with her Houston astronaut husband for example.

I think it's more prevalent the older you are, and more established in your own life and work.
