    Don’t lie to your wife. Just say the truth, if she can’t handle it then you picked the wrong person to get married to.

      Given the greentext origin, I wonder if his wife was the first woman to give him the time of day and the dynamics of their relationship consist of him fearing that she might leave and he’ll revert to incelhood

          Because it’s such a pathetically non-problem that he’s complaining about as if it’s the greatest challenge in the world.

            I mean if I spent a lot of time and money keeping something clean and well maintained I’d be pretty fuckin upset if someone completely trashed it.

            It doesn’t matter what it is. It’s something important to me and if you can’t accept and respect that I think you’re the bigger problem here.

    No nappies in the pool is a reasonable rule. Lying to your wife is unreasonable. Also if you’re a grown adult with an able body you should be able to defend your face from children. The key is to be gentle but firm. Children thrive on well established and reasonable boundaries.
