Ok, Did you ask her to sell it or movement to get a reaction from her? Be Honest here ... was the thing affecting your life one way or the other? No, I was not trying to get a reaction, I wanted to know what I had to do with the trampoline. She waffled a couple of times then I decided to take care of it myself so that my kids would be happy.

Seems the communication thing is eating at you ... but sniffs of control if you get what I mean Yes, she doesn't tell me anything and then blames me either way. A complete no win.

So you jumped in, took over and rescued here, she had it arranged, HER circus here and she got a different monkey to move the thing, but you came in Magilla-Gorilla and took over the monkey role ... how did this help your situation? It did'nt, what it did do was build up frustration and resentment on your part right? - Was more worried about it sitting at old rental property and being charged to move it and having the kids upset because they lost their trampoline. Wife would have blamed that on me to them and I would be the bad guy. If it was another item that affected her only and no one else I wouldn't have done anything.

I get what you are saying but in this case I was more concerned about getting it off the property and making sure my kids had something they really use and cherish.
