I had a friend that loved Target. She had to go down every aisle and touch every thing. She didn’t want us shopping together, even if we drove there together. She would fill her cart and then remove most of it and stuff it somewhere it didn’t belong. Biggest time suck ever and so rude.

She is addicted to Target!
I cannot keep that woman out of Target, and it is nearly Mission Impossible to get her out of there. I swear , it has gotten to the point where we take two cars because I know that inevitably she will meet 30 people she knows and converse with all of them at length as the children and I slowly age and stand around like mutants as they catch up on the past 5 years where they haven't seen each other, talked to each other, or thought about each other. Meeting at Target, however, immediately triggers a seemingly irresistible desire to discuss in agonizing detail all of the minutiae of the last half decade. Ice cream melts, meat goes to room temperature, and I go to the bathroom to have a shave since my beard has grown out since we got to Target.
I even think they rig the traffic lights at Targets to change to reed on main arteries more quickly and let the side street greens go long so females can stare at the store and eventually succumb to its siren song
Also, ladies (and maybe some gentleman), don't come home FROM Target, or anywhere else, and say "Guess how much I saved?"
Once you SPEND money, you aren't SAVING it. The two things are axiomatically mutually exclusive- you cannot spend and save.
Any other Target addicts?

Shopping is in a woman’s DNA. Stop going with her and that settles the issue.

Bingo… I have a shopaholic wife, goes into the store for one or two items, comes out with a carload. I stopped going so she can shop all she wants or needs. Win win!

ha—funky bathroom rules? I seldom use the bathroom at Target but haven’t noticed any rules other than don’t take unpaid merchandise in.

Grow up. My gosh! Suck it up while you are at it. The world doesn't revolve around you and nobody cares what you think. Nobody

Nah. It’s not about Target at all.

Coercive control is the third rail.


Yes! I coercively control my wife. Now THAT would really make her laugh. Believe it or not, some people have healthy, normal relationships in which they can joke around with each other. Not everything is the misogynistic dumpster fire some of you DCUM crones like to make them out to be. I have been married for over 20 years to a wonderful, target addicted lady. I bet you've been divorced at least that long
