CAGiversary!
Our illustrious leader recently revealed he has decided to take the plunge.
I feel it is our duty to him to muster up some good advice.

I'll start by saying, ALWAYS lift the seat and never leave your dirty undies on the bathroom floor.
 
Congrats on your new marriage, and all the wish and the luck in the world to you and your new wife cheapy.
live long and prosper!
 
Mah-wedge. Mahwedge...is what bwings us...togedda...

Timeless words. Not very useful words, though. Let's hope that the people offering advice are themselves married already (looks around to see if anybody heard that.) Since I am not, I'll keep mum and just add my wishes for a beautiful wedding and many happy years to the new couple. May you have a station wagon full of kids to support you in your old age.
 
Two words that have made my life alot easier since I got married: "Yes Dear" You may some day be tempted to use another phrase if you think you are right, but don't to it or you'll be sleeping on the couch.

I'm only a teenager, but the best advice I can think of...

NEVER let your gaming get into the way of your marriage. If she's the one, she's far more important than time with your games.

Then again, I'm just seventeen...what do I know? :D

I don't think that's going to be a problem.
I've gotten complaints from her that I'm not playing enough games!

That's an intresting remark coming from a gamer. I think you should get married to someone who COMPLETLY understands you. So if your a super duper hardcore gamer who plays games 24/7, maybe your partner should be to, dont' ya think? That's one marriage that would last forever, I guarantee you that.

I love my wife with all my heart (including the game-loving part!), but i wish she'd say things like the above to me!!! While i don't ever let gaming take up time that she would rather spend together, I do hear things like, "All you did tonight was play games? The house is a wreck," and "Oh, you're on that damn cheap-whatever site again..."

But its all worth it!

So, congrats to his royal cheapness, and may there be many many "yes, dear's" in his future!

Eh...what can I say? Some things are more important than gaming.

Say cow did you ever buy the Xbox you were so afraid would alienate you from your wife? Or don't you wanna go there?
 
Crongrats man. My advice to you is set up 2 TV next to each other, that way you can play games on one and she can watch TV on the other. Works out great for me....also invest in a good set of headphones :D
 
Congratulations!! You're getting enough advice from everyone else so I'll just send my good wishes. You'll figure it out as you go. Everyone's different, so advice isn't always relevant or even necessary. All the best!!!!!

for sure, its a godsend.
 
You need a cheapass prenuptual agreement.

You spent all that time ammassing a collection of cheapass games and if she leaves, she gets half of them.... not cool.
 
This is not really advice. It's more of like an excerpt from the unofficial book of snotknocker proverbs.

Good head equals happy husband :D

Interpret as you will
 
Heres is my advice!

You know all of those great hours you spent on this site and gaming? Well guess hwat they are gone!

It was great posting here! Maybe we'll all see each other on some other game board! CAg you were a good place. You will be missed!

Oh yeah Congrats my friend. Hope all goes well. Keep us posted.
 
[quote name='snotknocker']Say cow did you ever buy the Xbox you were so afraid would alienate you from your wife? Or don't you wanna go there?[/quote]

First off, fuck off, smart ass. Just kidding. :D

Secondly, YES!! Regardless of how pointless my poll thread was....and it WAS pointless, i admit....I traded in some old games at FYE for $9 each, sold some old shit I had lying around on Ebay, and bought the XB at FYE for $102 + tax after the trade ins and rebate!

The wife was totally cool with it (though she did make fun of me and call me a nerd... :oops: ), and even helped me do two separate BB GGC transactions for XB games the next day. What a trooper!!

Cool wives are great: game time, BJs (occasionally...), cooking, poon-tang, etc. What a deal!!!
 
Congrats cheapyd! way to go, i wish you the best of luck and hope this doesnt hinder you ability to keep such a great site running, but i would understand if it does.
--Shadd

ps are any other CAG's invited to the wedding? that would be awesome
 
Congrats... but anyone else notice that Cheapy didn't start this thread? I believe they're getting married in a couple of months though. Cherish the few months of freedom you still have left! Good luck.

PS... you've got to post some of the pics of the ceremony, or at least some of your blushing bride in your gallery. :)
 
In the wise phrases of Married...with Children:

Bud: But all my friends are driving already...
Al: If all of your friends were getting married, would you do it too?
Bud: Of course not.
 
Make sure people dont get you cheap ass wedding gifts! Demand top dollar!

will we be seeing cheap ass wedding paraphenalia on the deals page?
 
Ricky, age 10, gives the following advice:

[quote name='Ricky']Tell your wife that she looks pretty even if she looks like a truck.[/quote]

You won't have to worry about that second part, I'm sure. ;)

Or you can play games like Time Crisis 2 or 3. ;)

Congrats to you and your bride to be , Cheapy D.


Hoping we wont see "cheapassweddingregistry.com"

Cheers!

She doesn't need to be a gamer to be understanding about it. My girl fumbles around with stuff very rarely, but she understands my hobby.

And thats cool for some people. I bet you and your gf love each other very much, and shes very understanding of your addiction. But say if you were partnered with a great girl, but she was always complaining about your video game craze. Wouldn't it just be better to find a partner that understands that you need to stay up until 2 AM to play Metroid Prime?

Yes. I would choke her (er, perhaps she would be the one choking me). That is to say, I couldn't live with someone who didn't understand.
 
Did you get her a cheapassring?

She's a keeper. I used to have a girl who called video games stupid, needless to say she got the boot. Nothing better than a girl who actually understands the hobby or better yet encourages it.
 
***Buys CheapyD a set of wine goblets***

When i got married about 2 1/2 yrs ago lots of people bought us alcohol. (wine mostly) so i guess they're tring to say the secret to a good marriage is to be drunk all the time.
 
[quote name='chosen1s']Never go to bed angry at each other.
Make God's purpose for your lives the center of your marriage.

My honest advice[/quote]

I could not agree more.

Maybe we are getting serious here so I'll switch to serious mode.

Never try to rationalize why women think the way they do. You will never totally understand and it will drive you nuts.

Many women are forgiving when you screw up. Their anger or disappointment may fester a while but if they love you eventually they will forgive you. OR NOT! This forgivness thing in my opinion is a facade. When you mess up it's like you're giving her a brick and she's building a wall. Sooner or later she'll take that brick and throw it back at you for whatever reason. Most women just can really not forgive and forget. I can't explain it. Nor do I care to even try (again never try to rationalize why women think the way they do). I'm happily married ... my wife is definately my best friend (big big plus). But I know that my past screwups will eventually come back to haunt me in one way or
another. So it is wise if you screw up as little as possible. After 2 or 3 hits in the head with a brick you'll know wher I'm coming from.

Can any of you other married CAG's vouch for my opinion?

I feel your pain. I play when she is stuck at work, away on business or late on weekend nights.

Which when mixed with Scotch doesn't lead to the best of scores.

Congrats CheapyD it is well worth it.

That's my set-up actually....3 tvs....one for gaming, one for when she is watching tv, and if I want to watch another show besides the one she is seeing, then the other ones come on. The third one is just the Intec XBox screen, it still looks alright, but we both want to watch the same thing anyways, so it's all good.

So as kaoticeyes said "Crongrats" and as LaraCroftsLeftBoob (see they do have a life of their own) I gave my "congragulation" to you Cheapy. One thing though, you should get her to post more. I mean only 5 posts? Does she not care about us? :cry:
