steve1 5 #26 January 26, 2003 Married almost 23 years. I'm lucky I found the right one. So far skydiving hasn't been too much of a problem. If I lived in a place where I could make more jumps, it might be. Steve1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kmcguffee 0 #29 January 26, 2003 Quote My first jump she bought for my birthday so she sorta put the crack pipe to my lips. Same story here except it was for our anniversary. She has done two tandems and is going to get her license as soon as we get settled in our new house. "Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do."

SteveM 0 #33 January 26, 2003 ........

peckerhead 0 #39 January 26, 2003 My wife has 27 jumps, but she has not jumped since '87 I am married with children. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joshjumps 0 #40 January 26, 2003 After 8 years of marriage I took up skydiving. At first she was upset and didn't want me to, but after she came out to the dz she made friends and went with me nearly every time(every weekend.) After almost 4 years she still has not even been in the airplane and I gave up trying a couple of years ago, however I could not have a more supportive partner.

How can I up the ante? how 'bout buying HER all the drinks she can hold, then talking her into it. the trick is throwing her out before she gets sober, then not being there when she sobers up and realizes what the hell you did! doughey, i was stupid before stupid was cool!
