The "I wonder whatever happened to__________?" thread

[iceman]

OK....here's one for the real OGs....

What happened to the guy with the red, white and blue face?

Hm. Not ringing a bell.

I do remember who killed Mr. Poundkey though.

Who invited MtnGirl to this party?

DTM-

Had a similar thing happen to my wife, and we still don't know why.
Great friends of ours that lived in the neighborhood. Some shit went down in about a 2 month span-
1. Their dog died. Dog was like 15 or 16.
2. We moved shortly after that, a couple streets over, to a much nicer part of our 'hood, and a much pimper pad.
3. The wife (his, not mine) was diagnosed with MS.

The wife just stopped talking to my wife one day.
We still don't know WTF happened. She either felt slighted that we didn't mourn her dog properly, was somehow slighted that we moved, or was just miserable for health reasons.

So, I guess the moral of the story is...

At least you know how you done fucked up, even if it is totally bizarre.
So you got that going for you, which is nice.

That is just the way it is.

Raps' Assspen cougar?

I didn't really know her, I'll have to ask around.

[PNWbrit]

No, nobody really knows unless they are told specifically by the person with the issue and even then, not necessarily. That is my point. Blaming the wife, ohh we lost one to another crazy is bullshit. People grow apart and make all sorts of choices with their time and the people they spend it with for all sorts of reasons.

Maybe they just got sick of your shit. Maybe they were just nice and friendly because they lived close by, but when they moved away it was easier to stop the facade...

That is just the way it is.

How about the Kirkwood crew. For a while there, they seemed to have it dialed in. Charging while leading somewhat normal, adult lives. Tyrone, Supu, etc.

[Tippster]

I still wonder what happened to Phoebe Cates since she was clearly unwilling to wait for me to find her and sweep her off her feet...

I'm guessing Kevin Kline had her killed and turned into an android.

Edit: judging by his FB posts SuPu still kills it, just now as a husband and father. Still goes to BM with Splat I think.

Maybe we could get into to Big Steve's obsession with Chainsaw Willie, next. Does Big Stevo have the herp, too?

The stuff with spouses happens. My wife has done that with several of my friends over the years, not to the extent of not speaking a word to them but making it basically impossible for me to hang out with them and forcing me to make a choice, them or her. So far she's on a winning streak but...

Im sure if she tried to get you to stop being friends with someone who really mattered to you, you would find a way to maintain the friendship and keep your wife.

I work around the edges of it. People who know me know I care about them and know that she can be weird so it's just kinda how it is. One of my best friends is on this board and he's on the black list for something he didn't even do, and he knows I still love him. Logic and reason are not the driving factors in some of these occurrences.

But, one of these days...

and you are soo much wiser, eh?

Wiser than a single unmarried young girl with barely any relationship experience? Thats a low fucking bar.

Yeah, same with me. I rarely ever see my old friends anymore. Part of it came about when they all had kids and we didn't but also due to her not being as enamored with my buddies as I was. As for the photo...."Why I oughta...." "One of these days, Alice. One of these days..."

[GoldMember]

MG - It's a balance. The way Iceman describes it is very similar to my experience. I've been married a very long time so we must have done something right but, it's a bit of a trick working it around the edges. All part of the compromise that comes with a long-term relationship and partnership. I think that's common with most of us married for a long time.

[PNWbrit]

I will never be liked anywhere I go

That's not something you should regard as an accomplishment being ok with...

Its fine

And if you haven't been married for a longtime (and especially so if not even for a short time) you haven't got anything valid to say about other people's marriages. Those of us that have probably don't understand how other's work anyway.

[GoldMember]

It rings like an abusive relationship. "I don't like that person so you cannot be friends with them".

Actually, my dad did that to my mom, never liked any of her friends to the point that she had very few.

No more abusive than if I said, "I don't care that you don't like them, they're my friends and that's who we're going to hang with." I don't feel abused; I work with it and she doesn't stop me from seeing my friends. We just don't see them as much because I choose to spend more of my time with her. It's a choice and something of a compromise.

[GoldMember]

What you said was "wives dictating who you can be friends with". No more than me dictating that we're going to spend time with people (my friends) that she doesn't care to be around. I'm having a hard time understanding your point. You're creating a scenario that isn't reality. She's not dictating anything, only expressing her feelings about my friends and me respecting her opinion and not subjecting her to a situation she's not comfortable with. It's compromise on behalf of her, who is more important than my old high school buddies. Doesn't mean I never see them again just that she doesn't have to be there when I do. You're making more of it than it is; dealing in absolutes that aren't absolute. You live in a very black and white world, apparently.

[PNWbrit]

Well what should I do then............

[Trashcan]

I was in a marriage like relationship for over 5 years where we lived together and owned a house together. From 25-30. I have a clue.[/QUOTE]

Maybe you think so,it depends on relationships. Married 22 years and divorced almost a year now. Have 2 awesome kids and things are going better. Talk to her every day and see my kids almost daily.
My point is people change over a long period of time. There is a balance in a relationship and sometimes it changes and you have to move on for the best of the family.
