Farmer Wants a Wife

[farmerjan]

Didn't know whether to laugh, cry or get mad...... truly a totally CLUELESS male... Not insane.. just totally DUMB....

 

[greybeard]

Not sure if it's still allowed but you used to could order one of those subservient type women through the mail.

How'd they ever get em to fit in a mailbox?

Had a neighbor that put a note "man wanted" in a jar and put it in the river. She put it in the river in Virginia and somehow got a man from Arkansas. Things worked out as they stayed married until their death.

It'd be nice for awhile but I'm too busy to have a woman that needs me to tell her every move to make. I also wouldn't want a stay at home Mom type that wouldn't cook or do laundry. I think there's a balance. I've been married for 29 yrs now and my wife takes way better care of me than she should. She doe's it because she wants to because I'm pretty sure if I told her to make my coffee in the morning she'd hit me with the cup. However if I just sit down a cup will magically appear in front of me.

perfecto. Sound ike my folks.

I got me one of them self-propelled models too, 28 years ago. Thought never crossed my mind when I asked the first one to marry me. She was quite needy.

When my second wife and I were dating, I drove to her place to surprise her because I'd gotten back in town a day earlier than planned. When I drove into her yard, I seen two bare legs sticking out from underneath her truck. Cut-off shorts on one end, and sandals on the other. She was replacing her header gaskets. Nuff said.

That would be one of Mr. TC's cousins. And yet, they've been married probably 35 years and she's not subservient anymore. I actually really like her, and she takes an annual trip to the Philippine's to see her family. I don't get it but who am I to judge.

That's funny, sounds like an Australian.
Yeh, I have one of those magic coffee tables too.

I know the people your referring to. I hadn't heard that story before. But the river here would go into the Tennessee River into Alabama, then north back across Tennessee, across Kentucky and into the Ohio near Paducah Ky, then into the Mississippi River and to Arkansas. With all the dams it seems impossible but i now wonder.

For any ladies who might come across this thread thinking they might want the rural lifestyle here are some thoughts:


The first is to value yourself. There are two kinds of girls, those to sleep with and those to marry. If you are wife material don't give yourself away for less than a Nevada prostitute costs. Men are simple creatures. We are but a sperms way of making more sperm. If we can get the milk for free, we aren't going to buy the cow. Treat a penis like a gun. Don't let it any where near you unless you are will to have it get you pregnant. Contraception offers a false sense of security. There are more unplanned pregnancies after the pill than before it. I am the strange sort of fellow who might insist that my dates where chastity belts and leave the keys with their fathers. While sex is important, more important is to build a relationship before giving into our animalistic desires.
Second, I would recommend pursuing education in health care rather than agriculture. Rural areas need nurses and dental hygienists and the like. That would be a good career to fall back on if things go to pieces. Understand that farming is hard and potentially unstable, that having a trade to fall back on is important. Marry because you want to not because you have to.
Lastly, ask yourself is this a lifestyle that you want. Are you okay with not going on vacations or having to deal with an on the farm injury. Also the future burden of being a farmer's widow and having to handle the affairs. I believe in marriage but I also understand that it might not be the most prudent thing to burden the one whom I love most dearly with those money issues.

Well that's a little pessimistic...

I remember when my father took me outside to sit under the cottonwood tree and have "the talk". I can repeat everything he said to me, to this day. "Son, there are two kinds of girls in this world... promiscuous... and passionate. You want the second kind." And that was it. Words to live by.

I found a passionate girl and she followed me everywhere and made me want to follow her. She changed my life by giving so much value that I never wanted to disappoint her. We both have the priority that to have a happy marriage we must prioritize our spouse's happiness. She's only refused me three things in 47 years, and one was to have a second wife because she's been so amazing to be married too.

I think one of the big failures in marriage is to marry someone you are attracted to and then try to change them to suit your own tastes. It should be the opposite. A good spouse embraces the differences and finds a way to appreciate them. I watch Olympic ice skating and have come to appreciate it because she sits next to me on the couch while we do it... and she has come to appreciate a little heat in the Jambalya I cook. She helps me build projects, and I help around the house. I had a friend ask me a question that prompted my acceptance of her as she is and I consider it the best wedding present ever. He was alarmed at how girly-girl she was and asked if I ever got tired of her being who she was. He was the kind of guy that wanted his women to be what he wanted them to be, and his wife was a miserable human being because she tried to fit the mold he made for her. So I thought about it and decided I liked my wife just fine as is and would embrace the woman I fell in love with instead of changing her to suit my sense of propriety. Someday one of us will die in the other ones arms and we've had a great life in the meantime. I'd do it all again in a heartbeat... because even the downtimes have proven to be some of the best times.

You take all the fun out of it.

Had a friend / coworker who went through a divorce. We calculated out his cost. It would have been less expensive for him to to visit a prostitute twice a week and hire a house keeper to clean his house a couple times a week. His reply was at that rate he would have got more sex and his house would have been cleaner. Had an other friend who was told money can't buy love. He replied, no it can't but it can rent some first class affection.

I probably should not speak my mind on that.... I once was a rake and ramblin man but fortunately, those years are long behind me

I probably shouldn't admit it here. But I was worse than that. I had them lined up coming in the front door and going out the back door. I often thought about putting up one of those camp ground signs. Please limit your stay to 3 days.

A mate of mine in his 80's rode his Harley 80km every week to the closest "Knock Shop", he reckons she was the cheapest girlfriend he ever had.

Tax deductible? Was he able to claim her(them) as a dependent?

"Knock Shop"
That is a term I have never heard before, but I may have to use it if the situation ever arises!

 

[TexasJerseyMilker]

As in shopping for knockers?
