Wife THREW OUT my REA catalog. Told me that I had enough "garbage". I can only think of two possible courses of action from here. Please advise.

Tell her that you like the catalog because it allows you to read up on / enjoy the cards without having to actually buy them.

Throw out the next Victoria's Secret Catalog. Tell her you have in-person models who will show you how it looks.

On second thought...whoa this is a minefield I don't want to wade into.

Here’s another idea-

Ask REA if they can send you another catalog to your office!

The arms must be huge on any woman that can actually pick up the REA catalog.

Kick her to the curb.

Cards will get you through times of no women better than women will get you through times of no cards.

And start collecting old beat up black bowling balls. Tell her they are antiques. Ask her to keep an eye out for the new catalog. If she starts laughing, she is a keeper. If she blows her top, well, it’s your life...

Sounds to me as if she was pissed off over something else.

+1. In all seriousness, there is a substantial problem in this relationship--most women don't understand our passion for collecting, but then again, most tolerate it better than that.

Hope it works out well,

Larry

I would advise you to quit buying garbage. If need be take a break from buying and enjoy the cards you have. Cards are easy to replace, finding someone that will tolerate your baggage long term isn't.

If both you and your wife have incomes, I would suggest not combining your finances, or not combining all your finances. In that way, each of you can maintain a measure of autonomy as to your purchases; that is, having the ability to make a purchase without being vetoed. For those who think this might reduce intimacy/communication, I can assure you this system has worked well in my marriage for 35 years without any ill effect.
