Dear Abby,
I have been so very blessed throughout my life over the years. Great parents, great wife, and kids, nice house, a great job, and a great education.
When I finally retired, I could hardly wait to spend all my time just enjoying my favorite pastime, bass fishing.
I even got my own little fishing boat and tried my best to get my wife to join me, but she just never liked fishing.
Finally, one day at the Bait & Tackle Shop, I got to talking to Sam, the shop owner, who it turned out loves bass fishing as much as I do. We quickly became fishing buddies.
As I said before, the wife just doesn't care a thing about my
Bass fishing: she not only refuses to join us,
she also complains that I spend too much time Bass fishing.
A few weeks ago Sam and I had just the best fishing trip ever. Not only did I catch the most beautiful bass you've ever seen, only a few minutes later Sam must have caught his twin brother!
So I took a picture of Sam holding up the two nice bass that we caught and showed the picture to the wife hoping that maybe she'd get interested.
Instead she says she doesn't want me to go fishing anymore at all! -- Ever!!!
And to top that off, she wants me to sell the boat!
I think she just doesn't like to see me enjoying myself at all.
What would you do? Tell the wife to forget it and continue my hobby or quit fishing and sell the boat as she insists?
Thanks,
A fisherman
P.S. I have enclosed the picture of Sam showing off the bass that we caught..
Dear fisherman,
Get rid of that narrow minded wife of yours.
