because of my love for Guitars, The wife is divorcing me. How crazy is this? I work hard I make sure she was never out of anything. I never hit her or rolled in 3 in the morning pissed off my head. All I wanted was to spend time with her and play my guitars.
I think the world sucks at the moment, What is a man supposed to do? I can't comprehend a womans way of thinking. If she found another fella O.K, if i beat her O.K, and so on. but no I'ld work a 12 hour day sometimes more 6days a week, I aint interested in getting bladdered anymore as being a former soldier I've done that to the max. I'll never quit playing my guitars no one can make me do that, I suppose it a learning curve in life I have to except.
I'm sorry about the rant, but I class you lot as friends even though you are all faceless and from different countries
well if you fall off your bike best thing get up and straight back on, also theres plenty more fish in the sea
So if anyone else has been through or going through what I am I feel for you and doesnt it fucking suck
Well at least the good side I have no one to tell me you can't have that jem or that Les Paul because as of next payday I am treating myself. Fuck it you only live once

dang man thats terrible.

sorry to hear that. dunno what to say..but
lemme get this straight... shes divorcing you because you play guitar

thats it? thats the only reason she gave you? strange... maybe you guys can talk things out.

**tony4552** · 01-09-2005, 10:26 PM

yep she says she's unhappy and bored, Shit get a fuckin hobby then. Can't afford to go out or go on holidays/vacations every 10mins. I think I might be a tad hostile at the moment but I dont mean to be, I am just pretty cut up at the moment. But it feels better airing it with you guys

what is her problem? just grab her head, and stick it in your amplifier. that'll sort her out

**guitarwizard2003** · 01-10-2005, 01:39 AM

mab8485 · 01-10-2005, 03:21 AM

That sucks man. Good luck in sorting things out

mickey_g107 · 01-10-2005, 03:45 AM

geez thats bad, do you have any kids? because thats bad ive experienced it. but i hope more that you can sort things out man. good luck mate

Goport · 01-10-2005, 03:49 AM

Tony mate, I am really sorry to hear this. I hope one way or another you get this sorted as quickly and as painlessly that is humanly possible.

Beka4MikE · 01-10-2005, 03:51 AM

Happened to a buddy of mine as well tony. Sometimes some people just can't be satisfied. But I would try to get some help talking it through first........good luck friend

El_jalepeno · 01-10-2005, 04:43 AM

Tony, really sorry to hear about this. You should at least try talking it through instead of either of you just giving up. Marriage is one of those things that too often people don't take the time to work through issues, and end up getting divorced and more miserable than before! Let me know if I can do anything. I'm here for you man.

**tony4552** · 01-10-2005, 04:56 AM

thanks alot lads you've brought a tear to my eye laterz

SLoB · 01-10-2005, 09:37 AM

hey tony, as with the others, sorry to hear about your news

hmm, not to sound offensive and this is meant sincerely but your wife should be more understanding of your love of music & playing the guitar.
I kno my wife understands my love of computers & music and i'm sure she would rather i spend more time with her, but your right ya gotta have a hobby!

blimey when i used to gig, we'd be practicing new songs and stuff 1/2/3 evenings a week and gigging once or twice too, then when i left the band i took up computing as work and as hobby lol

I'm sure thers still love, respect & liking between you and your wife, as a suggestion have you thought about doing a hobby together, something like going to the gym or something?

i cant imagine you playing your guitar 24/7 so thers gotta be time for both of you.

**axeshredder** · 01-10-2005, 10:08 AM

Hey Tony....is not all that bad...things happen for a reason.....i predict in the very short future you will be one happy guy.....many females love the guitar and guitarists...run a personal if you have to...but your Axe is your best friend and it would never leave you out of jealousy....only reward you with your loyalty!

**CanyonCarver** · 01-10-2005, 12:34 PM

Good luck, Tony. We're far and we're faceless as you pointed out, but I hope you'll feel our concern. Some of us can relate more or less with you.

I hope you either figure things out to mend it, or move on the best of both of you. We don't know the situation better than you and your wife of course...

Best of luck and do NOT give up on a passion. If you did so, it would probably eat you up and make you miserable. This much I know.

Cheers,

CC

Damn, Tony....that's really sad!!! Very sorry to hear that you're going thru that. I can't imagine the feeling I would have if my wife left me. I don't feel comfortable giving people advice on their personal lives but, talking things thru or even going for counseling seems like sound advice. I truly hope things work out for ya, bro!!!!
