Dear Dr. Phil
Dear Dr. Phil,
When I retired, I could
hardly wait to spend time enjoying my favourite pastime -
fishing. I bought my own little fishing boat and tried to
get my wife to join me, but she just never liked fishing.
Finally, one day down at the Bait & Tackle Shop, I got to talking
to Sam the shop owner, who it turned out, loves fishing as much
as I do. We quickly became fishing buddies.
As I said, the wife doesn't care about fishing.
She not only refuses to join us, but she always
complains that I spend too much time out on the lake.
A few weeks ago Sam and I had the best fishing trip ever.
Not only did I catch the most beautiful fish you've ever seen,
only a few minutes later, Sam must have caught its twin brother!
So I took a picture of Sam holding up the two nice fish that we
caught and showed the picture to my wife, hoping that maybe she'd
get interested. Instead, she says she doesn't want me to go
fishing at all anymore!
And she wants me to sell the boat!
I think she just doesn't like to see me enjoying myself.
What would you do? Tell the wife to forget it and continue my
hobby, or quit fishing and sell the boat as she insists?
Thanks,
â Gerard
P.S. Enclosed is a picture of Sam with the two fish we caught:
Dear Gerard; Get rid of that narrow-minded wife.
Those are two nice fish!
AND her 2 puppies are nice too.............
