My riding is part of who i'm so asking me to stop is like trying to change who I am. That's all I got to say. ______________________ Chaz

A real woman or a real man, would not demand that their partner make a choice if they truly loved them. While our relationship always comes first, the riding is part of who and what we are. While each circumstance is going to be different, you don't barter with someone's love and affection, let alone manipulate it or make demands of it. Only if the individual is dangerous, reckless, and an idiot and doesn't deserve to be riding in the first place, should he or she be told to get rid of the bike. When he feels the need to ride alone, he doesn't need my permission, when I rode alone, I didn't need anyone's permission either. If you ride, then you understand. Simple as that. I've referred to my husband as "My Old Man" on occasion, but it just doesn't feel right. He's not an old man and he's not "mine," I'm just fortunate enough that he shares himself with me in the ways that he does, which is pretty much in all ways. ______________________ Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

if someone told me its me or the bike I would pick the bike. If they really loved me than they would know how important that aspect of my life is and never even think to ask but i am also selfish self centerd and single |

That's easy. Just tell her that you really do love her, and you will miss her dearly! ______________________

Well my ol' lady (and yes I use that term and always have and she ever slapped the shit outta me she's gonna get the shit slapped outta her right back) but after 3 wives I have learned that if marriage is the option then she understands that the bike is part of the family and always will be. I've had bikes longer than all my wives put together and if my ol' lady decides she wants to depart because she wants to change me, then that's her problem not mine. I'm sure I'd miss her but if she made me sell my bike I'd hate her. |

Get her her own bike. That way she'll experience first hand the pleasures of being on the open road and blowing away the cobwebs so would never dream of giving you any such ultimatum. (o: ______________________ |

My better half won't even ride with me, much less get on her own bike. At least she is the main reason though that I have this bike now. Very supportive of my habit. LOL Any ideas on how to get her in the wind? (That won't cost me my head.) (o: |

Just get her on to it on a nice sunny day and take her for a nice slow cruise, do it in front of her friends too. |

I got this bike for my wife. It was a good trade. (fortunately she isn't a Cyclefish member) :-) |

If a guy EVER allowed me to pull a stunt like that and he actually DID get rid of his bike, I'd kick his @ss to the curb for having no b@lls. As for my choice? My bike vibrates. Nuff said. ______________________ ~Traccie

OK this should step on some toes......but as most of you know I'm good at it, and for the most part...don't care!............One thing I have to say is If I called my wife an "Old Lady" she would slap the shit out of me, and I would deserve it. Man that Old Lady term is way Old School. Sorry I think it sounds cheap and degrading. Now to address the post at hand.......I would rather sleep in the house than the garage. At my age Divorce is way hard on ya, and I don't have the strength to go through it again! Sleeping in the castle ...Dragon ND ~ I have to agree with you and might I add ~ my Father would smack me from Heaven for refering to her as 'My Old Lady' ~ we learned that as young boys... and I don't think it's just a matter of age ~ the 'alternative' is hard on anyone at any age. I for one like to sleep in the house ~ but not alone either. It's more important when it's a home... Oh ~ did I mention she likes the new Mustang seat? HA HA HA!!! |
