This is funny, I think...at least it will be when the wife comes back!

A Romanian man has put his wife up for sale on the Internet.
This is the ad:
"Wife for sale. Model 1983, good condition. Full option, nice suspensions, spacious boot, second owner. Price is negotiable, comes with three-year-old and five-year-old accessories. Seriousness demanded."
He apparently set the price as £3,000 (just over n$4,000 US$)
He said he did it partly as a joke (I should think so!)And partly because he was fed up with his wife' nagging.
He has received some offers but they were either too low or could only pay in instalments.
He waited for the wife to be away in Spain before posting the ad (of course!)
Me thinks a bit extreme. How do you guys handle arguments with your loved ones? Do you fight dirty or fair? Do your resort to underhanded passive aggressive methods? Share, please...

That's going a bit too far. In our twelve years, my wife and I have had a few arguements, but I can't remember one that extended to the next day. On ocassions we have both had to appologize at times, but usually they are dropped and forgotten quickly. However, I do think she nags sometimes, but sell her? No way!

I agree that is a tad extreme! Disagreements are part of life, it's a good idea not to let fights linger on too long otherwise resentment will build up; it's best to deal with them and move on. I'm glad you have no intention of selling your wife any time soon! Thanks for responding.

hi paula..its kind of a bad joke for me..selling wife/hubby in the net/ebay
..not talking to him or even giving him a cold silence is the best..since you cant utter words that in the end you may seem to regret...

Yeah, I think it is a bit extreme too. I woldn't be surprised if she really lets him have it when she finds out!!
When my husband and I argue, he ends to try to ignore me, and he does it because not only does he not want to face a confrontation, he knows it really upsets me!! I think I fight fair. I say my peace, listen to what he has to say, then try to find a solition that suits both of us. I try not to make him feel that I am blaming him for anything, but rather to tell him how I am feleing and why I am upset. He says that I come across the wrong wat at times, and I am sure that I do, but we are both guilty of that at times.
I would never do something like that man did to his wife. If I even thought about it, I would be expecting dicorce papers!!
