I think John should start avoiding Ted. Ted rags on John for being a family man and taking care of his responsibilities but underneath he’s jealous. All he has is a mommy at home.
When a man finds what he believes is the perfect partner, there is voluntary wing clipping. Before I met my sweetie, the reason I’d go to bars was to try to meet someone. But that’s not where I found her. For me, life is much better when you can share it with someone special. Ted is just a loney, self-absorbed twit.
Going to a bar to see what’s happening is not my idea of having fun. Let’s sit around watching a bunch of loud-mouthed drunk idiots make even bigger obnoxoius fools of themselves. No Thanks!
He could do that with Elly IN town if he wants. Why do people always assume the wife would forbid her husband from getting out and about like that?
So long as he’s not a selfish SOB to begin with, I don’t see what’s wrong with it.
I don’t mind my hubby going out at all. Of course he’s not the kind to get himself into trouble where I have to worry though. Only thing is by a certain time of night I miss him, but I still don’t tell him to come home.
Wives (at least the kind I want to be) are less nagging wenches than Ted seems to think.
Most folks would rather listen to a four hour lecture on the biology of slime mold than be forced to spend an evening out with a low-class bore like Ted - come to think of it, there’s not that much difference between the two.
John, why don’t you confront Ted in the face and tell him that you are a responsible father of your children while your wife, Elly went out for her visit? And then pinch Ted’s nose and tell him No Thanks! and stop yakking silly talks.

The idea that there are people like Ted out there is enough to induce nausea in anyone (anyone with a scrap of sense that is).

Actually, with friends like Ted, who needs enemas?

Ted, did you ask your mommy if you could go out yet?

Funny thing is, Ted’s cage is a lot bigger than the one he thinks John is in…
