My beautiful wife is very irresponsible

[PhiLandShiR 18]

Just put a valve on the hot water line. When you think she is clean enough, turn off the hot water!!

Actually Claudeth does take 30 to 40 minute showers a day but is trying to cut back

a smaller water heater would probably work wonders with that.

Maybe a bucket and scoop is a viable solution?

My sweet little Claudeth is a wonderful, giving woman but is also the most irresponsible person I have ever met in my life. I never seen anyone melt a bar of soap before but she does it. She can plug up the shower drain quickly and just loves to take 30 or 45 minute showers twice a day. She leaves the lights on constantly and the refrigator open all the time. She will fill her plate full of food and eat about 1/4 of it and the rest goes in the trash.

I am totally at my wits end. I have been dealing with this for 4 1/2 years but have made no progress in teaching her conservation. I love her very much and would never dream of getting rid of her but have been thinking of sending her to the Philippines for a visit.

Has anyone else had this problem? I have heard comments off and on but nothing consistant with what my little consumer does.

I tried SO hard to read the above post, but it was so long.

Sorry to the poster about it, it actually was interesting, just too long x_x

In Alaska now, I think the fish ain't biting, hunting is slow, it's cold outside, and the days are too long; hence, it's time to write stories!

It's twenty below zero and I'm sick.

I don't normally spend this much time indoors.

I don't mind being a simpleton. So you "got" me by eliciting a sincere response when you were just kidding. (The OP)

Nobody can say what the situation really is. The people who claim to be proud that they really know what is going on are wrong. The only thing you know is that he exaggerates wildly. One possibility is that he says three hours when in acuality it is seven minutes. He thinks five minutes is enough, so he says three hours instead of seven minutes. Ha ha so funny, and we are supposed to "get" the point that they are just long.

But all we really know is he says three hours and does not mean it. Now we're down to twenty or thirty minutes. What is it in reality?

You can't know that she lost two jobs. You can't know she lost a job from talking too much. Sure, you can't know whether anyone on this forum is completely making up what they say. But here we have someone who had demonstrated what they say is not what they mean.

So hey, you know - there is no way for this simple country boy to go through the posts from this guy (like the other really smart people here are capable of doing, apparently) and decide how much exaggeration there is.

I don't watch TV like some of the sharper people here. So you know, I'm a little dull.

let's not be trying to play matchmaker with your relatives in this thread, vj isn't a dating service. keep replies constructive towards the topic.

Why not Charles....????

There are some good PLUMBERS out of work here.....

Maybe gotta back up the mod.

Purely hypothetical.... Maybe that's BS and I saw the post? Maybe the offending post was full of comments that were nothing but rude, downright trash. Maybe it would take a total moron to read Jasman's post and think a reply dissing him and dissing Claudeth would be appropriate... Just maybe the emoticons used did not even seem to suggest said individual had any intent toward joking; maybe it simply suggested moron. Poor Filipina SO! Hopefully she finds VJ and maybe gets a clue. Oh, did I call the offending poster a moron? Maybe that's an understatement. Even a plumber would know better....

This is totally funny.....

Why are you people picking on me for ......

I even darn HIGHLIGHTED the part that my humor was about.....

lLet's not be trying to play matchmaker with your relatives in this thread, vj isn't a dating service.

The humor part was meant that

"if someone want to match me with someone else" go right ahead since I am out of work .....if you understand what it is underling meaning of it....

I have no idea what was removed because I cannot see anymore.....but i can tell you IT WAS NOT my post....

Charles is doing his job as MOD.... he can remove anything as he wishes, including mine if he thinks that may be something inappropriate....

It no wonder why most of us are not POSTING anymore.....you all ready to jump on someone like a pack of wolves....

While other members post IDIOTIC comments, IDIOTIC pictures and MORONIC nonsense....be fair and pick on the other members too... for GOD sake.

What am I saying?.....

LIFE is not FAIR...why this forum should be any different.....

My bad. For all eternity - let it be known - it absolutely was not a post by eros_EX_Plumber that was moderated! Well, not in this thread at least! Seriously! Really it wasn't... The intended joke was that even plumbers know better than to post such an offending post. How offending was it? Well, so offending even a plumber would know better! Its like deja vu all over again...

[jsnearline 2]

I must say I got a good laugh when the OP said he might try to get his wife to read this thread. If I had the nerve to suggest to my wife that she read a thread on VJ that I posted about the personal habits she has that annoy me, the next site she'd probably be checking out would be lawyers.com and she'd be searching under the divorce section.

I hope for the OP's sake that he can find a better way to communicate with his wife than by having her read his complaints about her on VJ.

she needs to understand that just because she can do something, that does not mean she should. perhaps you should point out that this wastefullness on her part costs money, which curtails her shopping....

Conserve Resources ---> New Shoes!

new shoes could be the proverbial carrot.

BUY NEW

:thumbs: way to go!!!

a good rule maybe no hot shower for her! see if she can last 10 minutes in a cold shower.

As a person, woman and wife, I don't think I will ever forgive my husband if I knew he posted something like this in a public forum. All I know about Claudeth was she is the OP's wife until this thread. This issue is something between the couple or can only be shared with close friends/family who can give her advise and make her realize about her behaviour and not for public to talk about..just a thought.

never heard of "TONGUE IN CHEEK"??? Most of us consider each other good friends!!!!!

High Heels, what a great side-topic. you gotta love how our Pinays love to commonly wear them and with such style. I would not call the previous pics as "over the top ** me pumps" you have trashy stripper or fetish style pumps such as these

But Asian women really can pull off wearing very high and stylish heels, even while going supermarket shopping with her man, which is so super fantastic. Let's cheer our ladies for wanting to look so nice and stylish for us.

And to the OP: Have your girl get some high heels from the money she saves over a 6 month period in the shower and at the dinner table, good luck!

Agreed, Asian can pull of high heels or boots and they come off looking very SEXY
