Overprotective Woman’s List Of Rules Before Allowing Husband To Go To A Bachelor Party Goes Viral
One woman has given new meaning to the term ‘overprotective.’ Recently, a concerned wife turned to Facebook to share a bizarre set of rules she insisted her husband follows if he wanted to attend a bachelor party. Now don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with trying to keep your partner out of trouble. There is, however, something very, very ridiculous about grown-up men being forced to party under conditions that would make a primary school disco look like Las Vegas. Yeah, that’s right, the woman not only demanded her husband follow the rules but his friends who attended the bachelor party as well.

Naturally, people on Facebook expressed their concerns for the poor guy’s sake. And to the lady’s credit, she did hear them out. Heck, she even realized that she had no control over men. So, she did the only thing she could — she forbade her husband from going to the party in the first place.
Bachelor and bachelorette parties are a time-honored tradition. They usually involve a wild night out sometime shortly before getting married. These last moments of “freedom” can be controversial, especially since the stereotypical bachelor party is all about hard partying and strippers. Of course, that doesn’t mean that every bachelor or bachelorette party is pure infidelity. Plenty of men and women have low-key get-togethers to mark their last days of being a bachelor/bachelorette.
Interestingly, like many modern things, the concept of this occasion is traced back to ancient Greece, as early as the 5th century B.C. According to TIME, it is believed that the ancient Spartans were the first to make a celebration out of the groom’s last night as a single man. Spartan soldiers held a dinner to honor their friend and made toasts on his behalf — with, one assumes, a Spartan sense of decorum. Since then, however, this event has become wilder.
People had a lot to say about these ridiculous demands
Is anyone calling BS on this stuff these days????...
A neighbour of mine isn't allowed to watch the odd football match in the house - even on a TV not being used by his wife. Some people just love to control. Sad.
What is her shitty reasoning for telling him what to watch?
I don't understand how this works. If I tried to tell my bf what to watch he would look at me like I was mad and just.... watch it anyway.
Z what
Okay.. that is seriously bad, man..
I wish I knew - she's a very stressy type and I expect it's just easier to go with the flow.
I hear you... I definitely know some control freaks....but unless he is a serious submissive or he shares her opinions(which should mean the rules weren't needed in the first place), surely no one could put up with that level of control, unless of course some sort of domestic abuse is involved....orrrr it is BS... you know????
Wow. I cannot even imagine.
I would but unfortunately one of my dearest friend is stranded in a relationship like that, the poor guy has to lie to spend an afternoon playing Magic the Gathering. He's a 30yo engineer and his girlfriend doesn't approve of him indulging in "loser culture".
My ex was an alcoholic. I wish he indulged in "loser culture" instead of liquor.
Why does he stay? Not married, no mention of kids, so why?
Anyone who willingly stays in a relationship that allows their significant other to control them, can only blame themselves. Relationships are give and take, not control and obey.
I'd like to, but I've seen too much crazy and absurd shit in real life to tell for sure anymore.
Nowadays it's hard to be sure what's real on blogs. We have over 300 millions people in this country alone and a fair number of them are off the rails. Have you noticed who our President is lately. That could be Mike Pence's wife writing.
my ex has an on off thing going with a woman who won't let him watch country music videos because they have other women in them.
That's just nuts. She seriously thinks that he's going to run off with Dolly Parton???
i was thinking the same. This sounds like a cry for attention now.
Just because you didnt see it around you it doesnt mean it's not happening anywhere else in the world
Go to any Al-Anon, CoDA, etc. meeting and you will hear people describe this type of behavior all the time. It's scary legit.
This is real. I've met a few people who act like this verbatim. It's rare (thankfully) but sadly true.
Can find another wife? :-)
Well seeing the posts about demanding and controlling bridezillas and other people that seem to think that they can control everyone around them, it doesn't seem impossible. Surfing the interwebs you'll find a lot of insane stories about insane people doing insane things.

Ah right, because you haven't personally experienced it, it must be BS
Ok, this is why religious people/religion, in general, get a bad rap. Don't blame it on Christianity because you want to control your husband. Get over yourself.
Agreed. There is nothing about being a Christian couple that says..well, ANY of this. From either spouse (although some may misinterpret portions of the bible to say "ownership" is involved), this is plain abusive. Maybe not physically, but it traps the other and forces dishonesty.

True, the ownership spoken in the Bible is, first, mutual, and second, is meant to be implemented with love, respect, compassion and appreciation. It's the difference between ownership of a broken down rusty Ford Pinto, and a limited edition Bughatti (spelling?). You can see which her husband is, no respect, or appreciation. Hard qto see any love there either. Sad way to treat someone you supposedly consider as head of household
Agreed. Using your faith as a reason to be controlling is underhanded and deceitful.
Yeah the Christianity is just being used as Justification here. Most wives would not appreciate their husband doing drugs off the ass of a stripper ... just ask him to not do anything that would break their vows and you are all set.
Maybe im wrong as a single person but I feel like that goes without saying it. Its not only offensive to ask him not to break the "rules" like thats the first thing he is going to do but also, why staying in relationship where you cant trust one another?
Christianity (and other religions) are too often used as shields to justify not taking responsibility for bad behavior. I just hope this couple doesn't have kids.
Agreed She is a control freak who happens to be a Christian and so she tries to control in a Christian way in Christian terms. Her last edit shows her to be a control freak who has clearly never read 'submit to each other as to Christ', 'do to others what you would have done unto you' and 'consider others better than yourselves' (ie other people come first)
I mean, it makes perfect sense to behave this way as a christian. In fact maybe NOT acting this way would be worse. Because in her mind, their literal souls are at risk for literal eternity. Their god is jealous and fickle and is prepared to send almost everyone to hell if it has to. Not being able to smoke or swear is nothing compared to what awaits him if he gets out of line with Yahweh. They are just taking their own beliefs seriously. Anything less wouldn’t be taking it seriously. And if that’s the case why even bother pretending to follow the religion? Why not just drop it if you can’t follow it to the letter?
Your post was a joke right? If you think thats what sends you to hell then nobody goes to heaven. Nowhere in the Bible does it say not to drink or swear or smoke.
It's a fair point, but there are good people out there who are religious. They are good people because they don't follow their books to the letter.
And he can always ask for forgiveness.
Who needs trust and friendship when you cna have total control? I recommend an implanted GPS tracker with an automatic electro shocker to deal shocks when swearing.
She had 2 simple options: 1. Go with her husband, carry a whistle and monitor the party like a referee. 2. Make them have the bachelors party at Chuck-E-Cheese 😁😁
Chuck -E- Cheese!? Didn't you read #9? Im afraid that ball pit is gonna be a no go. Not to mention with all those kids around surely there will be some mother's, which last time I checked tended to be... *gasp*... Women..
She could have offered to sponsor the party at her house.
He definitely needs to wear a shock collar to go with his leash.
Hehe
