If I did have a wife and she dared to shout at me for not selling the top or for buying the dip, I would literally say to her "pack your things and get the hell out of my house".
Well, sometimes it is not a shout, but crying, as others attested.
I was talked to for not selling at 20K (actually, I initially promised to sell at 10K, but then decided not to).
It all worked itself out, but hear this..the wife informed me that she has some house and garden projects in mind and it is basically non-negotiable.
I don't mind at all, considering that the projects make sense. Why not bring a bit more enjoyment in lieu of spending something?
Fortunately, I don't have to sell btc to do this.
Hahahahahaha
That partially explains some of your competing interests, Biodom (including some of your seemingly ongoing skittishness in regards to whether bitcoin might be in a "bubble"), but not completely.
By the way, I do agree with your largely schooling AlcoHoDL on the "kicking out" theory because reality of relationships can be quite a bit more complicated.. and I have seen both kinds of relationship situations of having lots of interwebs that are difficult to untangle and also the kinds that are seemingly less filled with interwebs, but even then it can be difficult to know how much trouble the chick might give or attempt to give in the "leaving" part.
Another part is attempting to identify incompatibilities early, and to attempt to figure out how severe some of those incompatibilities might be, so surely, there might be signs of incompatibilities early on that become worse and worse and worse with the passage of time rather better - and it is not always going to be easy to know if some or all of the incompatibilities are going to add up to a deal breaker or justify needing to cut the ties earlier rather than later.
Good morning oops, it's after noon Bitcoinland.
I kind of wonder what is considered to be official forum time... frequently, I consider it to be UTC.. but then other times eastern time is used as a reference... Likely you are referring to UTC.. and that seems to make the most sense.,. in terms of bitcoin and when daily candles close.. etc...
Still dragging along in the $5xxxx range... currently $53851USD/$67743CAD (Bitcoinaverage).
March was OK, got us over $50k, but it's time to move up. C'mon April, take us to $70k (and beyond).
Go Bitcoin go.

Thank gawd my wife is smart enough to let me make the Bitcoin decisions.
Closest she came to interfering was back in January when she was worried about missing out on our lake and wanted to sell enough for a deposit. I explained that holding on for even a couple more months would make a big difference and that I didn't think anyone else would grab the lake in the middle of covid winter.
Turns out our timing was good. By the time we signed an offer, several other offers had been made but we added an extra $100kCAD an hour before the vendor was considering all the offers. The extra hundred grand was nothing compared to the millions by which our coins increased in value while we patiently waited.
She's glad now that we waited. We get our lake and our millions.
Thank you Bitcoin.
Surely, in retrospect, it seems that you had the right hunch, but we know that sometimes those kinds of decisions can end up going either way.. but yeah, since January we had decent BTC appreciation in both February and March.. but overall January was not too good of a month (relatively speaking), except the first week or so.
