Sounds like that ole boy need to find some different tail to chase.

Anytime a relationship starts with "I want my bf/gf to change..", it's not going to end well.

So glad my girlfriend likes shooting my guns.

wut? She said to allow him to keep his guns and tech the kids riflery? And he is right about the safe? on Slate? and they let that through the gate?

Is this opposite day and no one told me?

A girlfriend who wants me to get rid of my guns, quickly becomes an ex girlfriend.

It sounds like the boyfriend did not evaluate her properly on the Crazy vs Hot matrix. If he had, he wouldn't be agreeing to get rid of his trusty pistol.

Careful on the negligent discharge.

Hell, my wife was a vegetarian when we started dating 39 years ago. If she has a normally functioning brain, she can be brought around.

You're the only one who's actually commented on the advice.

and "there is nothing as exciting as going skeet shooting... watching that clay pigeon explode"

On SLATE?!?

:shocking:

But my wife likes to shoot. Our first date was taking her to the pistol range and seeing her be a better shot than me.

I don't think I would ever have gotten serious about any woman who said "get rid of your guns". Just wouldn't happen.

To a woman maybe...

Best advice would be to have another female take her shooting.

Exactly!

I predict a rough divorce in their future.

****Good advice, unless she ends up leaving you for the other female, and then you are stuck at home on Friday night watching Netflix and ordering in pizza...

Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course...
