Morris 2 Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) Dear CamelJockey, Never sell yourself short. You deserve the best. Give that woman a big kiss. Ps. I am showing my wife for her to read. Edited February 5, 2010 by Morris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Von Paulus 8 Posted February 5, 2010 I definitely won't show this to my wife. She would answer with a special dialectic, saying what she does for me. Specifically to put up with me for 15 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creaghorn 10 Posted February 5, 2010 I definitely won't show this to my wife. She would answer with a special dialectic, saying what she does for me. Specifically to put up with me for 15 years. yeah, mediterranean people, especially women, might answer to such things in their special way (getting plunked by flying houseshoes, or having to look into her devlish eyes with her eyebrows raised and hands on the hips, one foot tapping on the floor, scaring me like hell etc.) i wouldn't dare to show it to my fiancee .

GRUMPYBEAR 1 Posted February 5, 2010 Lucky You CJ. Looks like she has good taste in equipment. GB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted February 5, 2010 That was sweet of her; she didn't buy ANYthing, but the right things! Cameljockey, if you don't deserve it so far - make you deserve it in future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ironhat 0 Posted February 5, 2010 WOW ! now that kind of woman is a gamer's dream. Every thing comes with a price in life however. Does she make you cook, do the dishes, the laundry and house cleaning ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cameljockey 3 Posted February 5, 2010 She doesn't "make me" cook and clean. I do it because she's not able to. Besides, she got a laptop out of the deal! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ironhat 0 Posted February 5, 2010 Sounds like a good deal, grats to both of you ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rickitycrate 10 Posted February 5, 2010 Very nice gear CJ. A wonderful wife. You deserve each other. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sakai 2 Posted February 5, 2010 Mine also bought me a graphics card for a birthday present, and she even let me pick it out!!!!! It was on sale too, that may have helped her along, but the thought definitely counts. She may not be a fan of flight simulation, but she is a fan of me!!!!! BTW: Congrats on ur new card, it looks amazing, and will look even more amazing on the new monitor!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Creaghorn, let me tell you that's not exclusive to mediterranean women. I had a German girlfriend and she was no better; in fact I was not plunged by a flying houseshoe but by flying pillows. Besides my wife is half Portuguese and half Austrian. It's a strange combination. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CJ for what you and your wife have had to endure Id say your both eligible for sainthood, but in this case, high end hardware to enjoy more OFF immersion might be a better reward for you! You deserve it! Edited February 5, 2010 by appraiserfl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
