A similar thing almost happened to me when I bought my Ducati. I made the decision while my gf was out of the country on vacation and couldn't figure out how to break it to her. So in typical guy fashion, I lied about it...BIG mistake. I've made it up to her since, but she was more pissed about the fact that I lied. Dishonesty is a big issue in relationships. I've never done anything unfaithful, but stuff like that always sticks in the back of their heads. If I would've been honest, she would've been mad, but probably would've been over it after a few days.
My point is, women shouldn't dictate those decisions unless your expenditures are obviously one-sided and selfish. Otherwise, what you do with your money is your business until you're married. Maybe it's a good thing she left before it's too late to discover these things.

I will never get married in America without a prenup because I'm not okay with having a wife telling me what to do with my money.
Married or not married I spend my money the way I want. I don't understand why marriage in america means sharing goods. That's stupid IMO. If she wants money, well go work. And when I mean work, i don't mean just BJs !

My wife stays home with the kids... we make all financial decisions together... to me, her job is harder than mine so its as much her $$ as mine.
This is way off topic... sorry OP. I wish I hadn't just bought the C63 or I would have been all over your car. GLWS!!!

It's okay if she gives me her opinion when I ask her for it... but if I don't ask her for her opinion she better stay quiet because she's not gonna like my answer. I do not tolerate that kind of behavior. The only person who's allowed to tell me how to spend my money is my dad because I respect what he did for me.

Lol @ Guilty.. Ur talking big macho cuz ur only 20 years old.. I'm sure u'll be the type of guy who ask his wife "how high" when she ask u to jump.. Wait to find ur soulmates & the love of ur life.. We can talk later. Lol

You see, when I hear things like that it is not the gf decision and dont ever make it her decision. She obviously knew you were a car buff long before she waltzed into your life, so a purchase of a sportscar should not surprise her. I once called off a wedding 6 weeks before, and this ex was one of those who would detest I have a sportscar, I soon found out it was because of her insecurities. Her personality was of an insecure soul and i could not deal with a person like that....now years later, I am very happily married for 6 years to a wonderful wife who knows that I have a sickness for cars, watches etc, so the purchase of my SLS may have raised an eyebrow but she was happy that I was happy, and this is with two young children in tow, so, sorry for the rant, but to the OP, good luck and dont let an insecure soul dictate to you what you havent done so in five years....it is obvious.

Missing some key options I'm looking for. But nice spec, nonetheless!
(Sorry to hear of your bad times. Things always turn up given the appropriate amount of time.)
Good luck with the sale! Hopefully someone from here picks it up and keeps it in the family.

I'm with you. A homemaker taking care of everything well within the walls is no easy task...and certainly a major job by itself.

Dunno, I guess its that time of the month. ![rolf](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
Thanks for the support Meng,
Things just weren't working out, didn't really see eye to eye on most things later on in the relationship.
Sad thing is, we broke up the same day my cousin got engaged.
HELL NO!!!
Its in my possession right now.

Karl, sorry to hear about this. Hope u will work things out at the end. Just believe in destiny.. If u r soulmates, u will be reunited again.. If ur not meant for each others, u will meet ur perfect match someday & will look back & be happy about this break-up.
As for the OP, good luck with the sale. And better luck with ur personal & professional life. Customers come & go, but if u have strong values in ur biz, u will go through this difficult times.. And then, u can buy a better car.![drive](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/driving.gif)

How old are u man seriously? 20+? I hate when guys like you make 20 & few years over old guys like bunch of machos that think they know it all and that their character & willpower is so strong that they can achieve, act and be whatever comes to their mind. Myself I am 23 years old and I sure know that if you have a soulmate next to you and a gf/wife that really truly loves you for who you are then its damn smart to listen to them.
You see they are there for you when no one is and if they are "real" they are the only thing after you parents that will protect you from everything thats bad. I personally think women generally (of course I am not talking about these 21st century gold diggers - in other words the new kind of biathces) have much better instinct when it comes to what you should do in certain situations.
On the other hand man are more for making money, making deals go through fast and smooth without any issues, and to give a hard hand when needed. Women on the other hand will know who you shouldn't hang out, she'll see when you are drinking too much and help you see it too,she will know who's your true friend and who's the one you shouldn't even let in the house, and she is the one that will very wisely help you preserve the money you have earned.
Anyway you will see this is true....At least I sincerely hope you do not find out how is it like if you don't get a women that has true feelings for what you are.

I'm 20. Very young and if you think that I'm immature that's fine. I agree with you that the guy makes the money, I don't want my wife to make money for me. In the other hand, I will never be okay if she tries to tell me what to do with my cash. I'm one of the most generous person in the world. I help everyone around me, but I hate being told what to do.
I think that most of women are tools that boys use for fun, the ones my age anyway. Maybe it will change with time, but what I know for sure is that no women will ever tell me what to do with my hard earned dollars.
feelings =/= business. She manages the house, I manage the finances.
I'm 20 and pretty successful in life in a country that is not mine. I think I'm a little bit smarter than average people and that's what makes me who I am. I don't need support from anyone, I don't need a girl to tell me how to manage my life.

As for Guilty, I dont blame your vision of "married life" as you are still young... when I was your age, I just wanted to have fun with gf.. but as I got older, I started being more wise & appreciate/recognize girls who are true to me. So my "macho" attitude tone down to what we call "compromise".
And now, even though it's my hard earned money... I always ask my wife before I spend money on my car.. it's all about respect.

I agree that we should listen to those that love us, but we don't have to do as they say. I hope the OP can keep his car. Girls do come and go, but she should see the good in you and understand that there is a reason you haven't 'popped the question' yet -even if it was because you wanted to own a very special car. Marriage can wait, I don't understand girls fascinations... it shouldn't change anything in terms of how two people get along. Its a label of progression, but doesnt change how we feel or act.
ps. I would happily trade my 2012 Sedan and some cash for your BS!

my wife bananas! :D
women in general are tough cookies, in many ways, much more than us guys. I know my wife has more inner strength than I will ever have. I am grateful to spend our lives together. And for that, mutual respect is key.

Well my experience comes out of my parents situation. My father would make 100k a week and once he came to the point of making this much money he was already doing some pretty dumb **** for a 40 year old gentelmen that has 2 kids. Well he died at 41 he was just about to turn 42, I wont say how and why he died but if he had listened to my mother - his wife that he loved as much as it was possible - he would still be alive today. He realized my mother was right maybe just few weeks too late. All it would take for him to still be with me around was few weeks. A lot of his "dumb" stuff he did was what caused him to die, and of course there were another factors and it was not really his fault but had he listened to my mother things would turn out differently. What a wife he had though - 14 years and she is still faithful to him despite finding out that he cheated on her ( not affair but one night sex with a prostitute basically) and in general altho he was great father the best we could have he wasnt the best husband- far from it- but he had the best wife he could have and it was only because of her that he made it to 42 and she was what made him a good man. Actually what brought good out of him. 14 years later everything she did was for us. Gave us the best opportunities ( me owning c63 all comes from her) and never ever had another guy altho we wouldnt be mad and she has no pressures at all.
She was 38 when he died and she was left with a lot of money, I dont know many women that are left alone under similar circumstances and show such respect for a man. BUT THAT IS A TRUE WOMEN AND WIFE-if you get that she ll be worth 100.000 c63 bs amgs and countless more.
