So I just sold my 2001 750 and made an offer on a 2005:) :cool: Trouble is I will need a little bit of finance and my partner does not approve. She has a point as my last "must have" bike purchase caused a bit of financial ummm... challenge (it's all good now) I Have already made an offer and getting a really good deal on this 05 and have my heart set on it. Trouble is this purchase may cost more than I am bargaining for.... So the question is to buy or not to buy and what can I do to gain her approval..?

If you want something that bad, come to an agreement with your girlie. Give her your credit card and say, "honey if I get this bike, you can go shopping for 1 day and spend $____". If that doesn't work tell her that you will give her oral sex :yumyum: whenever she wants for 1 month, that always works for me.

eeeeeeew!:laughings Idea one has merit - I was thinking of booking her a holiday or shit like that to kinda soften the response when I pull up in the drive way on the new bike:lol: She reiterated this morning that buying the bike will be totally disregarding what her opinion is on this. Thats tough hey :arsenal So any females want to help a guy out with some tips from their perspective?

who cares what she thinks? Buy it and tell all your friends who WEARS the pants.

Buy it and tell all your friends who WEARS the pants. :funny: yEAH, ALSO TELL YOUR BUDDIES THAT YOU AND YOUR GIRL SHOP FOR CLOTHING AT THE SAME PLACE AND SHARE YOUR MAKE-UP. IF YOU WANT THE BIKE, GET IT! THE WORST THING THAT CAN HAPPEN, IS SHE STAY MAD AT YOU FOR 1 MONTH AND NO PUSSY. SOLUTION: TAKE A 1 MONTH VACATION AND GET A HOOKER.:pimp:

I say get it. Worse case senerio she is going to leave you. If she does then she was never there for you in the begining. Why would she deny you something that you want and is going to bring you happiness? Unless you can't afford it right now then I would say wait till you can. If she don't want you to have it that bad then everytime she goes to get something then tell her no she can't have it just like you can't have your bike. If she gets it then tel her you are going to get your bike.

Your money = your stuff Her money = her stuff joint account = (rent, food, electricity, etc). As long as you can make your share of the required payments in the joint account, whatever you have left is yours to buy a GSX, a rare 15,000$ stamp or a signed and sweaty Ank Aaron shirt... Biggest mistake is to put everybody's money in one account and then have to negociate to purchase a lipstick or frame sliders.

Yeah - all these years I thought it was saving us bank fees and keeping it simple by having a combined account. That changed this week - I set up seperate savings and credit accounts. So next week I may have some personal debt of my own but I will be twisting the throttle on a K5 750 with a :D from ear to ear :cool: :rock:

You got the bike? Wow! Either you grew some chestnuts, or your girl left you. Or you didn't tell her and park your bike down the street. Or you bought a miniature bike and keep it an top of the TV. Or you cut-out a picture of the bike from a magazine and have it posted above your vanity mirror. Or she is the one that bought the bike for herself and you call it yours. Or you are lying? :infrandom

Well, I'm assuming you're married. Anyway, the thing is, I'm glad you got your bike. You know, sometimes it's like this: you've got to strike while the iron is hot. Sorry that there were some speed bumps. My husband has also done this to me as well: "...but honey...if I don't buy it now...." "...I may never be able to find this [XXX] ever again..." Sure, the $ might seem like a problem at the time, but it's always worked out in the end. Come hell or high water, he's always made sure that he takes care of that part. After a few frustrating, large, last-minute purchases, I've just learned to accept it and to have faith in my hubby. :thumbup:

I make all the large decisions in my relationship simply because I make the bulk of the money and pay the bulk of the bills... once his bills are paid then he is free to spend his money as he see's fit. as far as I am concerned I only have a say so in his purchases if I am going to be expected to pay for it (or its taking away money he needs to pay over bills)

I say get the fuckin' bike, but PLEASE remember that it works both ways...... when she says to you later she wants to buy something or whatever and you disapprove then she can always say "you did what you want in spite of when I said, so now I'm going to do what I want in spite of what you say"......as long as you remember that then get it... I only want what I expect in others in return... my girl and my mom did not want me to get a bike and I did, but I also respect them for things they do that I may not agree with...

Thats the thing, I never say no to my wife. Usually yes or at worst "We'll see if we can afford it" But then again her purchases - although more frequent are under $100 where as mine are less frequent but are usually in the thousands$....... I handle the funds as I work while she is at home with the 3 little ones. They never go with out anything and the bills & mortgage are always paid on time. So I figure it's reasonable to treat myself with a updated bike every few years. Anyhow I will post a pick up next week of me at the track with my new toy Cheers everyone

You had to ask your wife for permission to buy a bike? WTF? What kind of mascara do you wear? Since I was asking for female's opinions you obviously are one - so what kind do you wear bitch maybe it's the same brand :fu: Did you forget you had already posted up your highly valued opinion :infrandom Any way at least I know where to come for relational advice from now on Romeo :bowdown: Your so funny :clap:

I always like to read the replies of "oh why would you have to ask her? you're such a puss, grow some nuts." I mean after all it is a few thousands dollars, your partner probably is entitled to some form of opinion..........on that note though, way to veto her :thumbup:

Any more women advise you might have? I've been married 6 times. I'm an expert in relationships. It's not that I can't hold on to a relationship, but they just seem to disappear :headscrat . Next time I'll put a LO-Jack on them. :laughingr

She spends money here and there that computes to about 100 dollars a purchase while I go and splurge once a year on my stuff. Now I have to wait at least another 5 months till I can get a slip on.

My wife has had 2 of my bikes financed in her name. The big problem is sometimes the loan lender requires both signatures cause you are married.

I got around that one by getting a credit card in my name only, with a low interest rate on cash advances :cool: now I can draw $1000's for what ever the hell I want - when I want :thumbup: BTW the outcome to my story was: I got the bike, wrecked it at the track on 2nd day of ownership, broke my leg and am now separated....

fuckin ouch... i knew u wrecked that new bike out there but damn, she f'in left u too?? Yeah - I got kicked out, but it's been coming for a while. It wasn't because of the bike (althought that didn't help) - she found out about the relationship I was having with two young bi girls down the street.... :lol: Jokes aside, lets just say my stress management over the years has left a bit to be desired and now I have some time to make some 'adjustments' The good news is there is still a chance to patch things up. If it doesn't work out - look for my thread asking about places to visit when I tour the USA - Vegas here I come :lol:

In my opinion... listen to her. I didn't say do exactly what she says, but at least listen. Talk about it! My boyfriend has two bikes and no car right now. When he told me he wanted a second bike I told him not to because he was driving a piece of shit truck that was about to take a shit. But I also told him that it was ultimately his decision and that I wasn't going to bitch and moan if he got another one. Well, he got one, that truck took a shit, and now he has no vehicle. If its nasty out he sits at home unless I have the time to tote his a$$ around. Now he wants to sell a bike and get a loan for a nice vehicle. I think I made my point. :) He listens now. Some one just offered him a 4 wheeler for his bike for a trade and when I said "Hunny... bad idea... remember last time?" And he listens! Its a miracle! :bounce . But hey, thats just my opinion. So I just sold my 2001 750 and made an offer on a 2005:) :cool: Trouble is I will need a little bit of finance and my partner does not approve. She has a point as my last "must have" bike purchase caused a bit of financial ummm... challenge (it's all good now) I Have already made an offer and getting a really good deal on this 05 and have my heart set on it.
