The fact of the matter is that I spent two years supporting her while she decided if she wanted to go to Law School, be a paralegal, work at Nordstroms, work at Verizon, or whatever else. I supported her. Even when I was making the majority of the income and she was studying for the LSAT. I never questioned her. Came back from Afghanistan with almost 8K in savings (of which she contributed not ONE penny) and having decided to leave the Army now was my time to decide how I was going to transition back into civilian life.

The truth is I worked for Best Buy before, loved it. I love retail, I love helping customers, I love technology. All of those romantic gifts and surprises and trips she loved so much years beforehand. Best buy checks paid for that. I was making more than $12.50 before all of this, supporting myself, paying all of my bills, etc. BEFOREHAND as an unmarried man. She knew all of this. So for her to at ANY point question my commitment to being successful in wanting to return as a grown ass MARRIED man was the absolute pinnacle of disrespect. I don't give a fukk what your misgivings are, you do not look your husband, the husband who has supported you emotionally and financially since even before we were married, in eye and suggest sarcastically that he will enter middle age as a failure.


It will not be tolerated.


Call me whatever you like Brehs or think what you are entitled to think. But my personal code of living is that to be married to somebody who has that little faith in you after your entire life has been spent proving to the contrary is simply unacceptable.


I see what you are saying. It was not about working at Best Buy. When you came to a decision about what you wanted to do after coming out the army and presented her with that fact, she should have been more supportive. If she was a little shaky about your decision she should have addressed it better and asked what was your full game plan.

Sounds like you kinda wanna out in the back of your mind anyway and when that happen you had your reason and motive. If it wasn't that it sounds like you would have found a reason to split up at some point in time regardless. In all honesty you handling it like a female would.


Held on to something for a long time and then dropped the bomb on em, you should been letting her know, or said something, not just on some " I'ma prove you wrong ish"


If this was just a girlfriend it would be whatever, but some you married?:leostare:

Sound Reasoning
fukk her family, coworkers, her friends and whomever else has an opinion on my decision making and work ethic....


Did I think about how it looked when I was holding down EVERYTHING while she was attempting to "find out what she wanted to do?"

Went from Paralegal for 3 months, to a part time job at a clothing store, to no job studying for the LSAT (classes and study materials paid for by me) to working full time at Verizon. rent, car payment, food, etc paid for by me.

Did I say to myself. "Man I must look like a sucka supporting a woman whose having trouble really making up her mind on a career". No I supported her,never made her feel like a less of a person, encouraged her. When I was in Afghanistan putting the money towards savings (of which not a cent she contributed) and paying the bills for her back home, did I think to myself "oh whatever shall other muthafukkas think of this":stopitslime:


Again, and for the last time. I am not expecting posters on a message board to understand how much work, effort, and commitment went into my time at Best Buy PREVIOUSLY. You can hate on the job or the career decision all you like. The FACTS are however that SHE did. She witnessed it first hand how I MADE that job a viable career, and I did it because I genuinely loved it, was good at it, and was PROUD of the accomplishments. SHE knew it all. There was absolutely ZERO reason for her to doubt me or question me in such a disrespectful manner. She shytted on everything that I stood for, and this is supposed to be my wife:wtf:?


I had a vision and a plan. I knew what needed to be done. I knew I would need to work musket to the bone, outshine all others in a short amount of time, and absolutely be the best, the most knowledgeable, the most dependable. No days off. 7am-10pm. Marta to and from. But if I make a decision then no less than my absolute 150% is going into it.


And the bytch had to nerve to suggest that I would fail...worse..she suggested I would underachieve...that my life's track record was that of mediocrity.


5 months in I'm a manager. I made it Brehs. This may mean nothing to you but it meant EVERYTHING to me to achieve that goal. And it's not the ending point either. My short term Goal is to be the youngest General Manager in the state. My long term goal is to be the District Manager of Geek Squad services.


But you know what I REFUSE to do? I refuse to accomplish anything more with a woman by side who doubted me to such a point that she disrespected my dedication to success. My work ethic, the very fiber of who I am and what I represent. Of all people in this world SHE would've been the one to know who and what I truly am. And at that moment she showed what she truly thought of me...

I would NEVER stayed married to that nor accept that thought process from a woman. Bushes status :camby:

If anything, you have to respect this man's resolve.

This dude is saying "I don't give a f#ck what she thought" and truly followed through on that. In a world where most dudes talk about about Hard on Hoes or just fantasize about it, this dude is really being Hard on this Hoe.

I may see it from both sides, but I have to salute you for being so definitive in your career and your marriage.

Hard On Hoes :birdman:

Peace

So many clowns on here... :snoop:

Y'all don't know when to cut your loses. I can't be with a woman who looks down on me either.... When the struggle gets real people will expose themselves for who they are. Breh didn't feel supported so he did the right thing.
This. nikkas who let women talk to them any ol way exposing themselves

Any old way? His wife questioned him going back to a job he supposedly worked his way up from.

Keywords

Wife


Not some random board or girlfriend, someone he chose to marry. This is mad petty to get a divorce over, I cant co sign this. Like I said, this heavily feels like something a woman would do not a married man.

edit: wtf she's a lawyer too? nikka:snoop:

Nah if you look at it from his perspective with all the shyt he's done and put up with over the years, you know that comment was the last straw :mjcry: wife or not you can't allow your woman to talk to you like that. That's a hard thing to act like never happened. But then again, I'm not married. I couldn't see myself doing all that shyt he did for her and sticking by her to begin with, let alone an unappreciative bytch sayin some fukked up shyt like that afterwards :dead: and he just came back from the army? That's a lot to factor in. She was way out of line.

I find it absolutely comical how people who know absolutely NOTHING about the profession, the salary, opportunities, etc. that come from the career path can say with confidence how "terrible" of a decision it is:mjlol:


It's also funny how, indirectly, most of you are proving my exact point. You judge, you clown, you look down upon it, you DOUBT it as a viable career path. Your sheer ignorance blinds you and leads to believe that I've chosen something that somehow makes me "unworthy" of demanding respect from my relationship. The same respect that I showed her when she HAD no concrete plans in life and was attempting to find her niche in life....


And yet think about it for a second. None of you all know me personally, you obviously have no knowledge whatsoever of the profession, and yet you have such clear disdain. Now imagine that EXACT attitude coming from one of your wives. Not your girlfriend, side piece, mistress, or some bytch you fukkin. Your own WIFE. The woman whom you have NEVER failed to support financially. Bills paid on time. Food on the table. Car running. Lights on. It's her birthday and she wants a new iPhone. Done. It's Christmas and she wants to spend a week in Florida. Done. She decides she wants to go to Law School and needs books and tutoring. DONE.

Two years of marriage and basically whatever she wanted (within reason) she got. She came out of pocket for almost NOTHING in Two years....


Now again, imagine THAT woman looking you in the face with the same disdain, judgement, and ignorance that all of you, posters on a MESSAGE BOARD, complete strangers have shown me.

"Your going to be 35 Making 12.50"":childplease:

That's what she said to her husband. She was no better, no more informed, no more supportive than some strangers on the Internet. A woman who for YEARS beforehand watched me succeed that the very profession in question. Paid bills, brought her gifts, once paid for her car breaks to get fixed, went on trips, ALL paid by Best Buy money.

THAT woman looked me in the face and proved that she had such little respect for me as a man, a husband, and provider that she thought I would fail. Just as all of you seem to think.


And I proved her wrong. Yes I DID work my ass off. Yes I did sacrifice. And yes I did make it to Manager in 5 months. That is no lie and no exaggeration. I am proud of it. Prouder of myself than I'd ever been at accomplishing something within a short period of time. My first go around with Best Buy it took me three years. This time it took 5 months. And @DMP can attest to this as he met me during the iPhone launch.

And then I threw her ass in the bushes. Just as any of you MEN would a woman who disrespected you so utterly and completely. Counseling was nothing more than another individual siting across from you giving his opinion how you should think or feel. Her tears and begging for another chance was simply the apologies of a woman who watched a man make it despite her efforts to destroy his resolve.


I have more respect for myself and my decision making than to allow a woman to EVER question my goals. One of you tried to equate it to being a rapper or ball player which simply is the definition of stupidity. You need talent, luck, timing, co-signs and a host of other factors to line up JUST right for anybody to make those viable careers. The ground is littered with the souls of talented rappers, actors, ball players or singers who never got their "shot". Working at Best Buy was about dedication, hard work, and BELIEF that I could make it happen.

She couldn't continue being my wife. I would have been LESS of a man to myself to allow such an individual to remain in such an important and integral position of my life. An unsupportive woman who is no better than posters on the internet? THAT is with whom I was going to place my faith?:scusthov:
