BACK TO REALITY , you know she wants us to build again too , and was looking at lounge suites ( 2 sets , for 2 rooms ) as ours are getting old now .
Is this site about cars or should it be renamed to "Geezer needs help with Wife.com.au"?

Face facts no man understands woman’s logic however she might have a very good reason for this. Turn it around and make her think you have come to the realisation that you no longer want the GT and agree . You might have to sell your GT however the replacement might be much better.
Make the best of the perceived worst situation. Sounds like you are 50 going on 5.

At the end of the day it’s only a Falcon – Surely your wife is worth more than that?
Pure madness.

fg nitro, I would like to think that Frank feels he's amongst friends and members who have been sharing his (and their) Ford and GT experiences for many years on this very forum. Just look at his post count. By all means share your advise if you want to but there is absolutely no need to personally attack his intelligence or values. As the topic has clearly highlighted what approach works for one couple, may not work for others.

Plus 1 If nothing else it makes for a bit of light amusement and makes other members on here feel their relationships with their partners arn't so bad after all

my friend is a big wrx fanantic, and he absolutely hates the new WRX, and that's saying something. (i believe his insult was something along the lines of 'looks boring, like a ford').

hey thanks for all the comments and advice and differing opinions guys .
i dont really have to post about what me or my wife thinks here . but hey . life is worth a few questions and seeking others choices as well .
i could sum all this up in a short phrase .
" i'm having trouble making a few decisions." Because most choices have validity for and against .
i could go on and on and on , but i think you get my drift .
just to add a little substance . it shows i look at someone elses perspective ( my wifes being different to mine ) sometimes its shot me in the ar ss and sometimes its done me good .
my personality doesnt lead me to believe that life has a straight line , although i wish my personality was like that . it aint .

NOW . the seed has been planted , it's still on the cards . i have no idea what will come of it at this stage .
