Did you know that women thrive on confrontation and arguement. They simply can't resist contradictory discourse.

I always prefer intercourse over discourse

A divorce? just because you cycle is abit much. Let her try it cycling with the gears and see how it is. If not then talk to someone about it. Though, i find it a worrying that you would divorce her for something that is soo small still though im sure you have your reasons. Talk to me perhaps she wants you to love cycling to love her. OR perhaps there is something else. Not married so i can not add to that yet. Though, ladies or a guy would find cycling fun if not then perhaps they are worried about something.

Listen to eachother and perhaps see what happens. It seems too quick to react though still.

Thanks to google. ^

A marriage in which either party takes to the Internet to complain about the other is already in difficulty.

Don't talk to us, talk to her.

Did you know that women thrive on confrontation and arguement. They simply can't resist contradictory discourse. I have never yet met a woman who can go for 48 hours without objecting to something, moaning about something, contradicting something or trying to pick an arguement about something.

I cite my experience of a very abusive marriage in which I was a victim of repeated violence , and the relationship I am in now as my sources for this reply.

I have to say I find this post quite offensive, not all women are nags & to label them all as such simply because you have had bad relationships is really rather churlish.
It may say/explain more about yourself than you realise.

 

[brokenflipflop]

In my experience when it comes to women, they can take evil, vindictiveness and nastiness to a much higher level than men can and when they've inflicted all the hurt, they've even got the ability to walk off with a smile on their face and a spring in their step. It's just my experience so I'm sorry if that assessment seems a bit unfair.

They can also take lovelyness to the same heights, you re obviously mixing with the wrong sort.

And that is perfect description of my ex.. Who happens to not be female.

At the end of the day there is good & bad in both sexes, we should take each individual as we find them & judge each on their own merits, not label an entire species just because of the odd bad experience.

This is unusual.

Of course Hitler, Himmler, Stalin, Beria, Krushchev, Mladic, Caucescu, Milosevic, Tudjman, Karadzic, Pol Pot, Franco, Amin, G Khan and Caligula were (or are) all women. Well, if they had been it would have supported your argument. But they weren't.

I think we gentlemen of the world fill every step of the podium in the Horrid stakes. We do quite well in the minor placings too.

I'm sorry your experiences of half the population of the world have been predominantly bad. Really, it isn't meant to be like that.

I feel jolly lucky to have met only members of that tiny minority of women who are not horrid. I was going to put a smiley face on this, but didn't.

Gosh, gender politics on the internet. Meh.

Is cycling a reason for divorce? No. Is your partner not supporting you in something that you love and which is very important for your well-being a sign that all may not be well in your relationship? Perhaps. Is it reasonable to take the piss out of people wearing lycra? Of course. All sporstwear is ridiculous, and cycling kit gets more ridiculous the further you are from your bike. Is it OK to talk to your partner in a way that hurts them or genuinely undermines their self-esteem, always assuming that you have been made aware that this is the (quite possibly unintentional and meant to be jokey) effect of your words? Nope.

(Likes cycling. Recently single. Xmas present from ex? Copy of "It's all about the bike".)

ETA - mind, I bought him a pannier

I wasn't talking about Indiscriminate evil I'm talking about family relationships and people (women) you've looked after over a long period of time. Hitler loved thingy Brown or Braun or whatever his mistress was called and I'm sure the other maniacs on your list may have been loving to their family members.

I'm sure It's no coincidence Black Widows do what they do.

Do you want to stay with her? Stop cycling!

Could find better? Keep riding!
