Opinions needed: House previous owner situation

[Shuemue]

I don't see anything normal about that?

If my wife came to me screaming her head off about how some "mean man" treated her. I think I'd be more likely to smack her than him.

(and yes I've been married, and I left her thx >.>)

You didn't read the whole thread, did you?

Yes actually, I did. Acting irrational is acting irrational regardless of circumstances.

[Shuemue]

Then at which point did he say his wife came crying to him about anything?

[Darus Grey]

When my wife went over by herself the other day to get the keys from him he did the same shit to her. If I knew this was going to happen I would have been there, and I would have broken his mouth for talking to my wife like that.

It's implied. Otherwise the level of reaction is not appropriate to the level of action, in which case he's the pyscho and his wife should hit him.

He cornered me and yelled at me

If it'd been an isolated incident, sure. Hell, the first instance is often enough for blows to be exchanged, so when he's done it on two separate occasions it's unacceptable behaviour.

[Darus Grey]

There's no logical reason to exchange blows. Which is even more unacceptable behavior(you don't trump negative with a bigger negative, because that makes you the asshole).

Instead, like the rationale human being you should be. You find a way to resolve the situation well avoiding the direct involvement of the other party.

[Shuemue]

lol, could you try to make that sound slightly more self-righteous please?

[Darus Grey]

Why, do you disagree ;0?

[Shuemue]

I think your post conveyed a tremendous amount of naivety about humanity.

If you didn't thinks he was good enough to stay with, then you obviously didn't think she was good enough to defend either; thus you seem a little out of place in this arguement since you haven't felt the same way about a person these people have.

And rofl @ being stuck up about exchanging blows, but being more willing to hit your wife then the guy yelling at her. You sound like a pro at relationships.

Back to the OP; I agree with Shue. Keep the money out of the deposit you needed to clean up after their landfill.

[Darus Grey]

Naivety? hardly.

I'm well aware of the human condition. But man has made a history of rising above his situation. Thus to condone, or even encourage such behavior because it's "human nature" is in itself surprisingly odd way of thought.

If you think I'm acting self-righteous only because I'm capable of(or even just suggest...) a non-violent solution to something as trivial as "who should clean this up", then I hardly think I'm the one lacking perspective.

Sexist attitude. If a man has to "Defend" his woman in any situation not involving physical danger than you are telling her you don't think she can solve her own problems, and beating someone up only leads to more problems for both of you. The likely result of such an action is police and legal intervention.

Logical flaw. More willing does not mean willing. No threashold needs to be passed for this scenario.

[Shuemue]

Can see why you're no longer married. I hope she stiffs you on alimony.

[Darus Grey]

Yeah right, like I was stupid enough to let that happen. All my assets are incorporated. I technically don't own a single thing.

Though if insults are all you got to counter? Hmm.

Tell your next significant other you aren't willing to hit them, but if they come bitch to you about a guy who chewed them out you'll be more willing to slap her for bitching than him for being a dick. Let me know how that works out for you.

Your response changed nothing.

[Lordwafik]

Wanting to protect your significant other is hardly a sexist attitude. More of a primal instinct than anything.

[Ikith]

He cornered you then after that he cornered your wife? Definitely unacceptable.

[fantasticdan]

I agree with Norelco. I would do the same if some fucktard came and screamed at my wife. Substitute the wife with your mom. Would you let some fucktard scream and insult your mother?

Judging by how he's trying to turn an extremely minor problem into a legal battle, the OP is probably exaggerating about the yelling, and I doubt this guy actually screamed at his wife.

If it was actually an issue of my girlfriends safety, and/or someone is saying some incredibly derogative/insulting things, that's one thing, but the dude in question is some guy upset about details in the sale of a house, not really the same thing. And if my girlfriend really wanted to beat up some old man, she doesn't need my help.

Keep track of time it takes to clean all the crap up. Tally in gas, dump costs, and emotional bullshit because the guy is a creep and needs an ass whooping for yelling at your wife, and I think you get somewhere near 750 bucks.

And to the moron who would rather hit his wife than someone who yelled at her: You sir, are going to Hell.
