The wife is jealous

christian370z · 08-18-2011, 11:58 AM

My then girlfriend used to say that all the time, but she would never complain if I drove her around either. I have always been a bit self conscious about how much time and effort I put into taking car of my car, if people are around I tend to wait until they are doing something else or are asleep before I clean, sit and stare haha.

instead of my z, its more about my bike instead.

My Fiancee gives me sh*t about caring about the car too much all the time...I just laugh...I mean, I probably do care about the car too much.

Just reminder her how the "fiancee" status can change one of two ways.

Especially when your Z has personalized licensed plates that say "MY GOOMAH!!!"

This morning as I begin washing my beloved Z, my wife comes out side to ask if I would go get some milk for her. I replied that I would when I was done washing my car. She got mad and said " all you care about is that car".

Does this happen to anybody else?

It used to back when I used to date. Now I live for me

Lucky for me I found a girl who likes cars too. Not as much I do but she loves her sporty fast car (currently has a 2010 camaro ss 6-speed and had a C6 vette in the past), keeps them clean, parks far away to prevent dings at work,etc. She will even get her nicely manicured nails and hands dirty helping me work on the car if I need a hand with something with no complaints. She goes racing with me and races her own car at auto-x and drag. Again, not as obsessive as I am about cars but definitely shares a similar passion.

My wife used to give me a hard time about the obsession but we've been together long enough now that she has given up. I know when to pay her attention and she knows when to give me time with my car.

No no! This is why I have never taught my wife how to drive a stick. I can only imagine the curb rash after she drives it.

My buddy bought a brand new Charger a few months ago. First thing he did was go out and buy 21" wheels for it (lol.... I know 21"!!!!

.....for being that big they actually look alright). Then he tells me it's going to be his wife's car. I just shook my head and said " you going to let her drive it with those wheels. What about curbing them." He just said, "she will be fine."
