I'm so moody!!!!!!!!!!

If you find something that makes them quit smacking let me know about it. My husband (of 32 years) has started doing this. It's about to drive me crazy! I say things but he doesn't take it serious enough to make a mental note not to do it again.

And smacking gum!!!! I actually forbid him to EVER chew gum when we are in the Tahoe! Every time he sticks a piece in I tell myself that I can make it to town (about 7 miles=10 minutes), but before we get there I'm ready to strangle him!!!! He thinks that my ultimatum about not having gum in the car is funny, but I'm dead serious!!! If you ever read of my husband's death you'll know that he was chewing gum in the car with me and smacking!!!!!!

Tell them, you will smack them if they start smacking - jk LOL

My friend's husband also smacks, and she hates it. It embaresses her, specially when there are other people.

First I like to welcome you Toodles to 4wt, I haven't been on as much as I like to.
All the lovely ladies have given you good advice. If I may add my two cents lol. Janet has hit it on the head. Don't let you feelings feister, you must communicate. The first year is an adjustment period, if I could think back that far lol. But if you keep your feelings bottled up over the years you will explode and your loving feelings will turn to animosity. Go to counciling now, try to connect , remember the reasons that united the both of you. His eating habits are getting on your nerves, it is a normal feeling , he can work on that, I think its more than that. If everything bothers you. You need to speak to someone alone, if you don't want to go to a marriage counselor.

My nephew got married this past Oct. and they lived together for a year also. She moved out of the house almost a mt. ago and now she is talking about divorcing. My nephew suggested marriage counciling but she wouldn't budge. Now he wants to go on with the divorce, and she is crying the woes. I don't know what is going to happen there, he is a good looking guy and everyone tells him, if you make an attempt at it, do not have children for awhile. Shame people live together and things changes when they get married.

Good luck!
