You still aren’t getting it M4L. The nagging isn’t the problem itself, the problem is you BROADCASTING IT!
It’s not a nice thing to be saying about your wife and should be left in private.
any location in Cargar and vicinity is excellent.
You can make case about nicer streets, blocks, too close to this or too far from that. Busy-ness, BQE, school, projects, subway, shops, riff-raff, etc….but essentially those are personal preferences and rarely backed up by significant price differences (except for the extreme as being right on Hicks or W9th).
it must be a cultural difference thing. spousal nagging is 2 way street (ie to do dishes, do laundry, sweep the flrs, get groceries, etc.) and it’s not a big deal at all. I dont proactively do all the Good husband stuff so wife nags me on it. when nagged, I do it. I still love her a ton. it’s not a big deal. I dont argue with the spouse on it.
btw, when one spouse suggests, tells, etc. multiple times to the other spouse on someting, it’s nagging. it’s not terrible. but it IS nagging.
if nagging is equal to not loving the other spouse then that explains why divorce rates so freaking high in this country
Geez, I don’t even know whether to bother to post back on topic after all these posts about nagging. But, Minard, I’m curious as to whether you’d defend the Union Street location as you do the Clinton Street one. The house is lovely, but not the location. Yet it still fetched an extremely high price for a CG house.
For what it’s worth, I agree with 11217 about calling spouses “nags”. It’s pretty offensive if your spouse is telling other people you are nagging all the time. It may not be the “big stuff” that leads to divorce, but come on, it’s not exactly a nice thing to say about someone you love.
“Wasder, et al, it seems to me that prices have actually increased in certain “affordable” yet quickly changing areas such as South Slope and Clinton Hill, no?”
Hey Mopar–been away from computer a little while so sorry for late response. Yes, what I am seeing around my area is bucking the trend of price decreases. Since I have moved into my house in Sept 2008, the Clinton Hill Co-op School moved onto my corner (my daughter now attends), the BID was passed on Fulton and immediate physical changes (paving, new sidewalks, trees, etc) have followed along with many new businesses. now with the Food Co-op going in on Putnam right around the corner from me I feel very lucky to have bought where I bought because I would never have gotten this much house at the price I did (approx 300 per square foot) even a few blocks away towards the center of Clinton Hill. The action has come my way and the prices of houses around me are continuing to rise, with actual comps to show. Pretty wild considering how things are going nationwide.
lol @ 11217 getting his long blong wig in a kerfluffle. wives nag. they have nagged since the beginning of time. deal with it. or um, dont deal with it. youre gay, what would you know? dont tell me your mom wasnt a nag. they are all nags. nag nag nag. i have never met one married woman who wasnt a nag to her husband. actually these days the nasal voices pussywhipped husbands are more the nags tho it seems.
*rob*
11217, only if that small stuff bothers you big. if not, no reason not to get married if you find “the one”
“you should never get married”
Well then good thing it’s illegal for me to do so in 44 states then, right?
“quite frankly from my experience with most men, they NEED to be told most things more than once.”
This is what leads to nagging.
