[Question] Do you lie to your significant other about your collection (alien.top)

I’m finding it harder and harder to tell my wife that I’m buying a new watch. After about 4 watches, she can’t understand why I would buy more. I’m curious as to smartest or most interesting way that someone has used to get around this issue.

Take a photo of here shoe closet. Or makeup cabinet. Or whatever it is she’s into. Scarves, jackets, whatever it is, she has something that, to a guy, seems excessive. It’s usually shoes.

And when asked, if you have time, she’ll likely give you a lengthy story about the need for each and every pair of shoes.

Next time she says something about watches, bring up the picture, rotate the phone, show it to her, “you have shoes, I have watches.”

Love it. This is the kind of responses I was looking for.
