This statement is so true. Whatever I earn goes right to the wife and in turn she gives me my allowance.

Looks like a big allowance....

Not big enough, I have to beg (my wife), borrow (take this out of my US account), and steal (I am never paying this back) to buy a new driver.

Now i know why you skip lunch that day!

Hehehe...i did. And she s v supportive incl upgradg equipments later fr improvement!

take her to Hermes or LV then, nagging will stop for at least a year.

i wonder if any guys tell their wife they pay to single handicap but tell their mate they play in the 20s.

or the other way round..tell wife he stuck in the 20s while all their mates single handicapper liao..all because they bought new driver, new SC putter, even the new golf bag for fung shui on the course....and how their mate's wife support them in letting them train 3x a week and play on weekends.....

quite frankly that is a can of worms to open :
"i wonder if any guys tell their wife they pay to single handicap but tell their mate they play in the 20s. "
she'll say "how come u so good must all the time spend on the greens and driving range when u tell me u were out meeting ?????"

she'll say:" are you telling me your are not helping me to carry shopping bags when i go shopping/groceries ? "

Well, everytime the wife nags at us just take the hermes bag and wave at her. confirm works.

Wow...seems like a wife is viewed to be "hazardous" and not a good "investment"

My regular golf handicap joke:

Question: What's your handicap?
My answer: My wife!!!!

Actually got a fridge magnet golf ball from one of my ex-female boss many years ago that read: "My handicap is my wife"

Come to think about it, my wife bought me a gof cap in Sunshine Coast Australia during our holiday in 2004 that read:

I live with Fear everyday
but sometimes, She lets me play golf!

in my case,

my wife plays Golf and loves golf too
so I guess I am Lucky too

I always buy the set of irons or clubs I want and
if my wife likes the feel of my club.

She would ask it ....haha

Like my Callaway X20 Tour irons with Px 5.5.
my wife loves it and doesnt want me to sell it....LOL

The couple that plays together probably stays together

Yes I guess so hahaha

Most of the golfers in my area.

To be honest, they do not like their wife playing golf
becoz its their way to sneak out for the 19th hole hahaha

Some of the golfers go and date with their umbrella girls
so if their wife plays Golf then they can't play around.

Most women don't like Golf becoz Golfing makes them alone with our kids ahahaha... while we enjoy the outdoor weather.

Some don't like Golf becoz they do not like to get "dark skinned"

IMHO,

this wife issue are a simple matter that should not be blown up, as i think in a marriage, there should be a certain degree of freedom afforded to both parties. after all, marriage is not life in prison. there should be understanding, and also give-take between husband and wife.

i have only been married a couple years, with our first kid due in 2 weeks time. I still play golf 2-3 times a week, and play on any day that i'm free to play..incl weekends. however, i still do accompany my wife to do groceries, or shopping, or whatever she wants to do for leisure, albeit not all the time but most times.

for financial issues (purchasing new items for golf etc), i buy whatever i like, when i like as long as i have the funds, and tell her the exact amount when she asks ( and say i'll win the money back in golf anyway ).

in short, i feel that as long as i have fulfilled my husband duties, eg.providing for her in all aspects including financial etc, i should be entitled to my own free time as long as it does not conflict with family time. i work my ass off and are entitled to enjoy a percentage of my hard earned money in any way of my choosing without having someone telling me how to or not to spend them.

i may sound chauvinistic or MCP as singaporeans like to say it, but again, this is just in my humble opinions

sorry for the long post

Actually you sound like someone who is honest and manages your house well. Thumbs up to you

bro bangla,

thanks for the nice comment. however, please know that there are no one thats 100% honest..we lie from time to time, be it white lies or erm..black? ..however, we are talking about golf in this issue, and i dont feel the need to lie about golf as its just a sport and there's nothing wrong with it imho..19th hole is just part and package of it ..

i do hope i can maintain my house that way, or better in the future

Spoken like someone who has only been married for a couple of years. You are still in your honeymoon phase.
Wait for the other shoe to drop.
3 options:
1) you fight all of the time
2) you get a divorce
3) LET HER WIN
I obviously chose option 3, but then again I am old, dumb, and allergic to pain.
