Re: I need some help for my football hating wife
If she can't respect a man's love and passion for football, I suggest getting a new wife. Seriously. She sounds degrading and annoying as hell.

Re: I need some help for my football hating wife
My advice is get a good divorce lawyer. Seriously she's acting like a child.
I'm glad my GF loves football and the Ravens as much as I do. I got tickets to the Colts game for her bday. Win-Win for me. lol

Re: I need some help for my football hating wife
Yes, I think it's time to move on. She sounds like she sucks and even her friends don't like her.
Make sure you extracate any Ravens memorabilia, children and anything else you care about before telling her though. And probably best to not do it on Facebook. Tweeting is faster.

Re: I need some help for my football hating wife
The problem is not that she doesn't like football or that she was angry at you. The problem is that she displayed a lack of understanding of the boundaries of the marriage relationship. Marriage is based on trust and intimacy; trashing you publicly and harping on it with her "friends" destroys both. Boundaries must be respected.
Put some time and effort into learning "how to fight fair" (here is a good article) and remember that your marriage comes first--before everything else, including your fandom and your friends. This is the person you promised you would be with all the days of your life. Fix it now. There are lots of good resources for marriage help on the internet, but choose carefully.

Here is what I would post, "since you disrespect your HUSBAND in the public, and don't respect me or my passion.... I have gotten you a valentines day present. Customized just for you. Divorce papers. "

Re: I need some help for my football hating wife
I wasted 10 years of my prime on someone like that. Multiple separations, constant arguing. My second wife and I have been married for 21 years. We both love Football and Baseball and we don't trash each other, especially in public. Don't waste your life on someone who cares that little about you.

Re: I need some help for my football hating wife
For those of you who are advocating divorce...marriage is a commitment you make for, presumably, life. A lifelong commitment for better or for worse. I believe in couples doing everything in their power to work through their issues which every married couple has from time to time. I'm not saying every marriage is a match made in heaven but it is a mutual promise made and every care must be taken to preserve it. Sometimes divorce is necessary but it should be an absolute last resort. Divorce affects more than just the married couple...it affects the children, friends and the entire families on both sides. I'm sure some of you are throwing it out there in a light-hearted, sarcastic way or at least I hope you are. Maybe the wife doesn't see or understand how she sounds or comes across to others. Maybe she doesn't realize those civil and marital boundaries. Yes, she sounds childish and immature in her public rantings but we should at least give her the benefit of the doubt instead of telling the OP to divorce her.

Are you sure you're 'taking care' of her? Cuz that usually fixes everything

Re: I need some help for my football hating wife
Find something that she is passionate about and point out ways that it is "a bad example for the kids". :) Then post it on Facebook. lol
