I'm dressing as a cowboy for the bar's Halloween costume contest & I want my wife to dress as a cow; she's mad?

I don't understand her at all! I was told by a few of the bartenders at the bar that I have the perfect look for a cowboy costume, and I could win the contest, but when I mentioned about dressing up as a cowboy, with her as my cow, she got sullen and hasn't spoken to me all evening. Why in the world would my dressing like a cowboy make her mad?! I mean, look at me; it's the perfect costume! I think she's pretty selfish, to just stop talking to me; doesn't she want me to win the contest?

Why a cow??? That's not a costume for your wife. Why not an Indian? You insulted her by asking her to be a cow, which makes you the selfish one. Why does she have to match your costume at all? If they think a costume as ordinary as a cowboy is good enough to win a costume contest, you don't need a cow.

She is mad that you want her to dress as a cow. Anyone with a brain could figure that one out. So, now she obviously thinks you think she's a fat cow. Better get to some apologizing. Tell her to dress up as a cowgirl instead, that is if she'll even forgive you...

I think a compromise is in order, tell her if she'll dress up like the front of a donkey you will be the @ss

LOL. She's upset because you wanted her to be a cow silly. Not because you wanted to be a cowboy. To be a girl and have your husband say "I'm gonna be a cowboy and you can be my cow!" is kind of like implying "You're big enough to be my cow!" She is probably self-conscious about her body and asking her to be a cow is not a great way to help. Lol. Men are so funny. Good luck with that!

LOL! :) Cute.

Perhaps she would have preferred you asked her to be the horse or the horse's @ss?

Just tell her the costume will make her butt look small compared to a cows butt. That should satisfy her.

I thought this was a funny one but I'm loving these answers. Congratulations to you sir.

I agree with you totally, you need to be dressed up in a cows dung
as it would be better for you.
