My Wife Has Left Me

Well, not for good. It's just another gambling trip. Not that she does them that often. Just twice a year. Usually once in June and of course, once in October. She left a few minutes ago and she won't be back until Monday. She'll be up North in Wisconsin, I believe if I remember right, somewhere around Keshena. Hopefully it will be a profitable trip. But of course, it's gambling, and it rarely is. Oh well, she will be with her cousin and some friends and will have a good time, so even if she comes back empty handed, at least I know she will have a good time. Plus, for whatever it's worth, it's nice for us to have a little break from each other too. We all need that from time to time.

@Shivram59 Yes. Indeed, it is. To top it all off, she leaves off for somewhere and I tell her to have a good time. She leaves me a list of chores. lol

Sure. Why not? But of course. But I will also get lots of "work" done too between writing and YouTube, and MAYBE even work on a song.

It depends on the trip. I gave her $500 for this one.

Enjoy your bachelor time, Jim. I understand you wife. I´m a gambler too. My husband taught me to take to the casino only the money I wanted to lose. And never take a credit card or the like. Temptation is too big.

@porwest I have never understood why is it that when you lose 30 or 40 dollars it is so much. Yet when you win that amount it is miserable.

Yep. That's it exactly. Go in with no intentions, and no money you don't fully expect to leave behind.

@porwest Gambling bores the hell out of me. I’m bored before I even lose the $20 I put in a slot machine

@NJChicaa I don't mind it if they let me play a little bit. I am fine with losing the money, but don't just take it from me just because I am there. It's not like I'm expecting a life changing event. I am just looking for some quick entertainment.

I have become less fond of gambling myself, but I used to enjoy it more. She still enjoys it, but I think these trips for her and more about the time spent with family and friends than the gambling.

Your so right, separation helps the relationship but then again can also hurt 1 at the same time in other relationships, but Most the time it does a relationship good, that's why I love being in my own place & having the peace & quite I enjoy.

I think all relationships need space. Just my two cents worth.

Hope she has a good trip that does not result in a loss. Your loss appears to be temporary!

It's a gambling trip. Almost inevitably, it will result in a loss. Casinos were not built on winners, you know. lol

Aha! So you are a free young man without a wife. I can see how you are smiling right now, kidding. Enjoy your day, I think that is good for you and your wife to take a day or two to spend time on yourself and friends. God bless.

As you say, as long as she enjoys her time with her friends, anything else is a bonus.

Hope she doesn't have so much fun at the casino that she decides to stay.

When you guys are apart, do you cook differently? I remember growing up, whenever my grandparents were apart..my grandpa cooked things that she either didn't like or he knew she would say were too unhealthy for him lol
