She is definitely not normal.
If you were my close friend, I would tell you to stay away from her, or anyone act as she when mad.

Wait. You said something bad. She broke your watch. And you take the blame?

SHe has got to be high in the danger zone on the "Hot vs. Crazy Matrix." Something near a 10-10. Yikes. (Google it if you don't know what I'm talking about. Investing 5 minutes into the video is worth the laughs!)

That isn't funny.

No, seriously. It's abusive. Not a joke, not about rolex or watches.

It. Is. Abusive.

You are making a huge mistake staying with her.

I just got to skimming through this thread , but something doesn’t feel right about how blaze you are , ohh you found it funny , and has anyone been through this.

Sure I have had fights with significant others , where things got damaged but you almost seem amused by it.

Obviously you didn’t work hard for it , or so it seems :dunno:

Dude. Please get out while you can. I too dated someone like this for 6 years and was oblivious because I was just so used to it and thought “everyone must go through it”. That ended and now I’m engaged to an absolute gift of a woman. Life’s too short my dude.

Don’t mean to Dr. Phil ya but damn. Good luck

Seriously, as others have said; this is not about a fancy watch, seek help, both of you. Move along if you must. But nothing with that is healthy.

That’s messed up. You need to think logically. Loosing a child is a tragedy you both bear, you are not in debt to her because of that, unless there’s more to the story we don’t know. Her behaviour is unacceptable regardless of circumstances and is abusive behaviour. I suspect she is in a lot of emotional pain and/or depression because of what happened. You both need professional counseling whether you stay with each other or not. I hope and pray you will seek help and heal and enjoy a healthy and happy future.

Oh come on guys, what do we know about the OP or his relationship other than it has apparently gone through a severely traumatic phase of losing a child? Who are we to determine what behavior is or is not ok for the mother based on violence towards an inanimate and ultimately pretty worthless object. Any type of violence is of course a pretty good indication that something is wrong and help is needed, but the comments here judging whether anyone is crazy or should be left by herself seem pretty inappropriate to me.

To the OP, I’m very sorry to learn about your loss

Indeed a very funny and unusual post!

Does she have a single sister?? There is something particularly attractive about women who can inflict this sort of damage

The loss of a child is one of the saddest and most traumatic things that can happen to a parent. Perhaps this explains the behaviour.
Regardless, any dysfunctional behaviour should be addressed rather than ignored.
Life is hard enough, and way too short to be spent struggling with unresolved issues.

In all fairness I think most of the comments regarding her being crazy etc are from people that have not bothered to read anything but the first couple of posts and the OP did start the thread asking if other people have the same problem. People will give their opinions in these circumstances.

As I mentioned earlier, the first watch was smashed before the loss of the child so its something that needs addressing. All said and done the OP has my upmost sympathy but I think he should do his best to encourage his partner to address the issue rather than blindly accept it out of loyalty.

Nav01L, I think that is the issue, to understand the situation one would need to go through every single post OP leaves, which is really hard. If we just go off the information in his original post, the obvious answer is run. If we add all other posts into consideration they definitely need counselling and probably psychiatric health for her. It is on OP, he should have said all of that in original post, maybe he would receive more constructive responses. Just my .02$

I dumped my stupid nincompoop high school bf the next day after he broke my watch almost 21 years ago....
However the damaged quartz with the cracked s.c is still my most prized possession and remains with me to this day
My Victorinox SA has a rare unusual feature: The language on the day-date wheel is not in French, not in German but Spanish. The watch stopped ticking at the moment of the high impact at 12.39 pm, MIE - Miêrcoles - Wednesday , the 23th of April 1997

Absolutely this. I too dated a woman for 6 years, the last 12 months were awful and I too thought it was something we all go through at some point. . She took three of my watches and tried to bribe me into to paying her several thousand pounds to get them back. To cut a long story short, I got them back without paying anything and ran for my life quite literally. New residence, phone number and job and vanished off social media for a couple of years.

OP, it's awful that you both lost a son, but you have no obligation to stay with her. Life is short and being happy is so important. She too deserves happiness. I would re-evaluate your life and consider moving on. You say that you found it "quite funny" that she did that to your watches, but she would've surely damaged them knowing how much you like your watches?
