so I just bought a guitar on ebay I did not meen to

Ah yes, God made Men, But colonel Colt made them equal. 

Just did not quite like the wipped thing.. we have a give and take thing that has been nurtured for 20 years, not a I'll tell you thing.. but still it's embarrassing to say hey honey I just bought something on ebay I didn't want!  and even stranger to have her say "Oh well, thats ok"

To be inn a relationship for 15 years, actually 20, married for 15, some respect must be leveed for the other side, My wife does not tell me what I can or cannot do. but her feeling should be considered . what if she bought a new .. designer dress every week.. what would I say.
I realizes that I have a lot of music equipment, and I also realize that bidding on something I don't want is, well stupid, so she has been great..   I don.t quite get the whole whipped thing.. but If we ever meet face to face we could talk about it, I weigh 175 and bench 305.. so I don't quite feel like a sissy.Hows about you.. 

I weigh 225 and can bench 12 ounces in an aluminum can.

Easy hoss, it's all for comic relief.  :icon_thumright:
 
The Warmoth website was actually the best excuse I've ever had to buy more guitars.  I got my wife hooked on the "ohhhhhh, pretty wood!!!" for a couple years now, and she'll often mock up a build that she wants.  My response is always, "have you practiced today?"  She then makes a renewed commitment to practicing guitar (she's a very accomplished trombonist and plays with swing bands, aside from teaching music as a profession), and the guitar never gets built out of guilt.  She lives vicariously through my builds and purchases, and I've built a guitar and two basses that were essentially what she wanted to build.  It's win/win!
