[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She's mad because she felt she was gathering useful information, and was still interested in hearing more, and you "over-rode" her. You steppped in and said, "That's enough" when she was the one who agreed to the evaluation and was still talking to the guy. Ultimately, yes, sounds like quite the scam. But that's the kind of thing you discuss and decide TOGETHER; you don't just barrel over her and say, "I'm the man here and I've decided that the little woman here is getting duped." It would have taken you 5 minutes to pull her aside and show her some Google results and tell her that you are half of this decision-making process, and you are 0 percent comfortable and are in no way going to agree to anything within mere hours of starting this discussion.[/quote] In other words, spend five minutes mansplaining.[/quote] Go away, man-hater. Sometimes one person in the couple needs to over-ride, and a scam is definitely the correct situation in which to do so. If the wife had done so, we wouldn't hear a peep out of you. [/quote] OP - I actually lost my temper, several times I told guy we are not signing a contract today. I asked him to leave a written estimate and give us time to decide. It was when my wife was giving me the look to shut up then all at once the guy threw out I dont understand why you are upset I am 100 percent honest, I told you I am only giving you a written estimate and guarantying price if you give me a deposit check right now and sign an agreement. All at once I was the bad guy. I stormed out of room at this point saying I am signing nothing and not giving a check, you two do what you want. Even my wife said she want other quotes multiple times but then she broke. Funny thing if I was at a time share presentation, being pushed to buy a sports car etc. by a push salesperson she would have loudly said NO or refused to go or refused to even entertain idea. It is there strategy force husband to buy or get what I got [/quote]
