I Took A Hot Girl To The Celtics Game And Now My Wife Is Mad
Husband and wife are arguing at home. Angry man is yelling at his wife.
Today on “Country Mornings with Jonathan and Ayla” we had a listener named Griffin who wanted to talk about his dilema that happened a bit ago. Ayla is convinced he’s cheating on his wife, I’m convinced of something else. Here’s Griffin’s story.

“So, I recently had an interesting scenario pop up. Landed some free Celtics tickets through work, and naturally, my wife was my first pick to join. Turns out, she was swamped with Christmas shopping. Guess it was her loss!
None of my friends were up for the game – some had plans, others weren’t into basketball. Time was running out, so I decided to ask a female coworker. She’s not only a big Celtics fan but also happens to be quite attractive, just like my wife. That might explain the bit of jealousy there.
The game was fantastic. But when I told my wife about my game companion, she hit the roof, accusing me of something sneaky. Honestly, I was just looking to enjoy the game, not let a great ticket go to waste.
Reflecting on it, I might have anticipated her reaction, knowing how she feels about this coworker. Still, I didn’t think it was a big deal. It was a snap decision – I was in the moment, wanting to make the most of the night. Being upfront about it seemed right to me.
Here’s where I need your opinion: Do you think my wife’s reaction was just her jealousy taking over? Was it wrong of me to enjoy the game instead of fretting over her insecurities? Your thoughts would be much appreciated.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best, Griffin”

So here’s what I think it going on. Griffin decided to go to the game with a woman he KNEW would make his wife jealous. He was either mad at her for not going or maybe he’s just feeling a little insecure. Regardless he accomplished what he set out to do, make his wife seeth with resentment. Was he wrong to do this? Absolutely. Is he cheating? I don’t think so.
Now for the other side, should this guy be worried about his wife’s poetic pursuits?
My Wife Is Writing Poetry About Her Ex. Should I Be Worried?
Vicki’s wife has taken up writing poetry as a hobby but won’t show it to her. One day she snooped and read some of it. And she was shocked to find that it is clearly about her ex. Now Vicki is still worried that her wife is still in love with her ex-girlfriend. Should Vicki be freaked out about the poetry about her ex? Or is this not a big deal as long as she doesn’t act on it?
Ayla Brown: And good morning, Vicki. How are you? What is going on? Please tell me about the problem with an iPad.
Vicki: Okay. I’m not great, honestly. So my wife has picked up a little hobby recently. She said that she’s been really into writing poetry and she’ll spend tons of time on her iPad writing. It’s nice. She gets a cup of tea and she sits out on the deck and she spends all this time with it. It’s right. It’s lovely. And so I had asked her, because I’m trying to engage with what she’s passionate about. And I’m like, can I take a peek? And she’s like, No, no, no, no. I don’t want you to see it. It’s private. I’m embarrassed. No, this is this is just for me. This is just for me. And I respect that. Right. Okay, sure. Well, so the other day she was gone and her iPad was sitting out, and I swear I wasn’t snooping. It was just sitting there. Right. And a notification came up or something like that. So, the screen kind of lit up. So well, I’m just going to see. I just wanted to see just how much she’d written. So I opened up the notes app. And she’d written a ton. But I just kind of assumed it would be about me or our dog or something. But it’s very clearly, I would say 95% of it is about her ex.
Ayla Brown: No!
Vicki: Yeah. There’s no way it’s not specifically about her.
Ayla Brown: How do you know? Like, how do you know?
Vicki: There’s references to this magical trip they took to the Bahamas.
Ayla Brown: Oh, gosh.
Vicki: And her ex had bright red hair. So there’s all these references to the color of her hair. Things like that. I know that they do have red hair. I know I have brown hair. Brown.
Ayla Brown: Heck. So that must have made you feel really crappy just seeing all this stuff that wasn’t about you and clearly about someone else.
Vicki: Yeah, honestly, I’m devastated. I’m devastated. I always had kind of worried about that she was maybe hung up on this relationship. It was a significant one when she was younger. .
Ayla Brown: And you guys are married? You and your wife.
Vicki: Were married. We have a house. We have a dog. We’ve got two cats. I mean, we are a family. Yeah, we’re married. And I thought happily.
Ayla Brown: But it’s just artistic expression.
Vicki: I don’t know though, because, I mean, I’m serious. 95% of it was about this woman. This other woman. She’s thinking about it. I’m wondering what to do, because I also know that I’m the one that snooped I didn’t mean to, you know, but she had asked me explicitly not to look.
Ayla Brown: Like Pandora’s box. It’s like Adam and Eve. What? The apple, the temptation right there. You admit you were the one that went through the iPad, so we know that you’re in the wrong in that. But are your feelings wrong?
