    Waffled on a purchase, lost out, now ranting

    Well I wanted it, really wanted it, but didn't really need it, the wife was somewhat on board with it-till the price came out. She was probably right but still it was such a great deal. I plead my case but I agree that ok its a no on the purchase. She was after all very kind with my other purchase so I can't get mad.

    She comes back a couple days later and says well if you had mentioned that extra $$ with the other purchases then maybe it could have been purchased. I was somewhat PO'd with that statement and said don't get my hopes back up.

    A week or so later and one last hope and she says well see what you can do about the costs. So her attitude is changing she sees how much this would mean to me..... Well inquiries were made but its to late - it has already been sold.

    So Im torn and pissed that I didn't take a firmer stand earlier, but I know that wouldn't have been the right thing to do.
    Im mad that after as much as I tried to make my case she wouldn't listen then to sing a different tune after such a long time. But she did come around....
    I will get over it eventually but hate that I will never get the opportunity again.

    Did I mention this was a long rant

    I think that would have worked, lol.

    should have seen if you could have given a deposit?

    Good luck, and hopefully something will come along again.
