That's not too unusual but you are going to have to address it before both of you become miserable.  You've got to get her a fucking hobby and/or some friends.  Does she have any family nearby?  She needs a social outlet by the sounds of it.

Also to those that are fortunate to get time away by offering to do something for her like fill up on gas... How long before I can start doing that? We're 2 years deep and she insists on going EVERYWHERE with me. Even when she was sick, she insisted she'd come to the store with me but just stay in the car because she doesn't feel like she could handle walking through the store. I ask what the point of that would be and I just get that look and a "but I want to be with you!"
You can't get road head if she doesn't go with you.

I grew up in a single parent household in very modest circumstances and my mom HATED getting those types of letter every year. One year her second cousin in Fort Worth, a wealthy widow, included a picture with her letter of she and her daughter sitting in a hot tub with raised champagne glasses and mountains in the background. To my mom's credit, she sent back a picture of the four of us sitting around a picnic table in a city park surrounded by red West Texas dirt and mowed weeds.  

We never got one of those letters again. LOL

We got a letter like this every Christmas for a decade.

Joke is it was to the family who lived there previously. I sometimes wonder if Jenna and Michael made it through their rough patch.

I cannot impress enough the importance of setting precedents early in a relationship. This shit should have never been allowed to fester during the dating period, much less anywhere near the post marriage experience. This is on you my man.

"Did you know there is no filter on the return air vent by the boys rooms? No wonder they have allergies"

That was 3 minutes ago.

You fucked up her jeep on a dude's weekend and she stayed with you.....you are not allowed to bitch about her  ever again. Shaggy Bevo out front should have told you.

Start letting epic farts out in the car, make the stench so eye watering, nose hair burning bad she doesn't want to be near you. That'll make it stop.

I’m willing to bet he’s fucked up a lot more stuff than that.

There's been a couple of responses like this and yes, it's on me for having not addressed it earlier on but in my defense, it wasn't really a problem then. Still not that big of a deal to me tho. Just amazes me how much time she wants to spend with me. 

This weekend we're kidless and she's been wanting to binge watch harry potter but knows I'm far from into that shit. So we worked out a deal, I get head for every movie we watch and there's 8 of them, two from last night. 

Looking like a good weekend.

So, she played with your magic wand huh??

Bad news is you have to watch a kids movie. Good news is around movie # six Harmione is of legal age. (I think)

You've got a Stage 5 Clinger.

File under annoying shit your wife does:

If you come over to my house and want to make a sandwich, chances are you will find the ziplock deli meat and cheese bags are not sealed.

How fucking hard is it to close them correctly? For fuck’s sake you have a masters in molecular biology.

Every.
Single.
Time.

Wtf? How hard is it to seal a ziplock? And if you don’t, what’s the fucking point of having them?

So we will be moving to a new state soon. Her must haves in a house are:

On some land, like an acre or two. 

Not have to drive much/no traffic. 

So way out of town but close in.

and she’s looking around as if she expects to find something. 

also, an  open concept floor plan suitable for entertaining, also a his and hers closet and a soak in tub with jets for relaxing. 

 

your budget is $950,000 and willing to spend more if its the right house

Been there.  Schedule a meeting with a local realtor and let her explain her vision...and record it.

I bet the dept chair in charge of molecular biology was a happy man when your wife was in school.

Absent mindedness at its finest (worst).

Sounds like my house. You should buy it from me.

Cotex "This ribeye roast is going to be excellent.  It's in the oven broiling.  When the timer goes off, roll it over and broil it on the other side for 10.  Then switch over to bake at 450.  After 30 minutes take its temperature.  135-140 it comes out.  Set it in the lower oven and let it rest.  I'll be home after soccer practice and we'll have dinner together."

Mrs. Cotex "Got it."  "Should I move it to a lower rack?"

Cotex "No, when you switch to bake you'll want it on a top rack."

...

Cotex at soccer practice "run you slackers, we're never going to win anything this way, I've got steak waiting for me at home."

...

Cotex entering his garage with daughter "Wow, I can smell it all the way out here.  It smells awesome."

Cotex daughter "it smells good."

...

Mrs. Cotex "I forgot to turn off the broiler, but I think I saved it.  It's 165."  "My mom says we can make au jus so it won't be so dry."

Mrs. Cotex "it's like those burnt ends we like so much."

Just another day living the dream.

Yeah.  You did the equivalent of leaving a three year old alone in a room with plain white walls and a bucket full of markers, with the instruction of "don't color anything."

WTF did you think was gonna happen?

As soon as any of us read the first two lines of your post, we knew EXACTLY what the ending was gonna be.  You should have known that, too.

Anytime I'm doing anything like that, I text my daughter when the oven needs to be turned off, roast needs to be rotated, etc., and tell her to do it right then.  That works so much better than leaving instructions with my wife.
