I treated my fiance like a little girl and made her sit in the corner but to me that is how she was acting....

Question

I was trying to do some research on my computer today and my fiance kept coming in the room and sitting on my lap and talking to me. I told her just wait a couple of hours and I will be finished in the meantime she could read a book or something. Well she came in again after that and said she was bored and started whining and all this. I was very disappointed that she was acting like a 4 year old so I put a chair in the corner of the room and made her sit there and that she couldn't say another word for an hour. Then she started pouting and all that and I told her if she didn't be quiet then I was going to take her out tonight. Finally she cut it out and I think she went to sleep in the chair. (I gave her a nice cushioned chair to sit in). Anyways, was this a good punishment? Did I do the right thing? I'm starting to feel bad now because I hate punishing my girlfriend but its like I needed to get some stuff done and she was distracting me you know?

Answer 1

Wow, first her behaviors and then you punish her and she listens. Hmm, you have some relationship going on there. Well, they two of you must be made for one another. God bless****

Answer 2

R U Kidding me? NO it's NOT ok. You BOTH acted immature. A man would of given her an alternative way to occupy her time while he finished his research. If a book didn't work then tell her to invite a friend over until you could finish. Or better yet, give her some money to have her nails done while she waited for you. But really, that is very immature on both your accounts and I would hope the two of you would persue a marriage counselor. The divorce rate is terrible. Why add to it? Not to mention that you just created a cycle for your marriage by putting her in the corner...your the adult and she is the child. Yet we all act like a child at one time or another! WE want a boat but can't afford the boat but we buy the boat anyways! Childlike! But we've all been there and done that...your BOTH adults. Why would you care to marry someone so child like? Is she a child? 18-19? I hope it's a LONG engagement! Please do NOT humiliate her again like that. I am sure you can find an alternative to the corner! What would YOUR kids think if you were to put "mommy" in the corner for distracting "daddy"? It's CRAZY! Don't marry her if she is so immature! If you truly love her wait till she matures enough to occupy her own time. You'll both be happier! Good Luck!

Okay. I don't know which is worse. You putting her on a time out or that she actually went and sat in the chair. This doesn't sound good. I mean, how old is she that you can still threaten not to take her out if she doesn't behave. But then again, her behavior is even worse. She's a grown woman and she should be able to respect you when you're doing work. If you want a child, go to an adoption agency. If you want a wife, dump this chick pronto!

Answer 4

I am actually going to get married next week and consider your actions toward your fiance to be very disturbing. Are you marrying a woman or a child? She should never have allowed you to treat with such disrespect. Marriage is a partnership of two equal human beings. One should not treat the other as a lesser partner. All she wanted was for you to give her some attention. Maybe the research could have waited.

Answer 5

I think your both childish but I'm more worried about your behavior. From what I read this is not the first time you punished your girlfriend.
The dominance routine HAS to stop. This is not normal in a relationship between a man and a woman. You need to speak with a counselor to find the reason why you feel the need to exhibit this behavior.

Answer 6

You were an idiot. Have you ever thought maybe she just wanted to know that she was more important to you than your research. How would you like it if when you were wanting to make she jumped up and said she had to work on the computer and made you sit in a corner for trying to get her attention? The child is you.

Answer 7

THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT PUNISHMENT.
one: she is your girlfriend and she deserves more respect than you're giving here. Right now it looks like that she feels that YOU treat HER like a four year old when she just wanted more attention. But tell her nicely that you need to get stuff done. Say something like "Yeah, I love you too, but I really have to work. How about we do something later, just the two of us?"
IF SHE CONTINUES BEHAVING "BADLY" wake up early and work than.

Answer 8

first of all u not her ******* daddy and any chick that will actually listen to her man and sit in the damn corner to dick whipped to me...but if shes ur fiance that means shes grown and u need to show her some respect also because shes a woman and not ur child or a dog so yes TRYING to punish ur g/f is the craziest thing i've ever heard of and her following ur diections is even more dumb so yall deserve eachother LOL

Answer 9

first of all, never tell someone you are about to marry, to go sit ing the corner.that is a very childish thing to do.becareful, she might throw off the engagement next time. so defintetly, that was the wrong thing to do to her. i think that you should say sorry to her. make sure you take her somewhere good to eat tonight to prove you are sorry. if she is a good fiance, she will also say sorry. if she does not. dont say, you owe me an apology too. never say that to a girl, it hurts there feelings.

Answer 10

You should have given your girl the attention she wanted. You could always put that research off until later. Treat her like the good woman she is or next time she may go find that attention somewhere else. Please make her feel special and enjoy every moment with her.
