I feel like your missing a good thing here Baby,I don't want to have all the fun, it's just not fair on you... so anyway I took the liberty of buying you a MOC so you could see if you could get into it... I know you've got nowhere to display it so if you like you can put it in my room for the time being :wink:
You: Happy anniversary, honey! I've bought you a Star Wars MOC to celebrate!
Your wife: But it isn't our anniversary, and I don't collect Star Wars, you do!
You: What? Oh, silly me! How careless! I knew I'd forgotten something, but I just couldn't put my finger on it. How lucky that I can always rely on you to remember for me. Oh well, never mind. I'll have to keep the MOC then, and I'll buy you something of equal value instead. It cost £20, by the way...

"Aha just what I was waiting for, that MOC I did a trade for has just arrived, that one where I posted off one of my MOC's to this other collector and he posted me this one back, so it didn't cost me anything, i'll be doing a lot more of these 'trades' over the coming months so listen out for the door will ya?, cheers love"...... 8)

Assumptions:
To be this worried, MOC value must be high.
Other half not keen on your collection.
Already been informed to curtail spending money on MOCs.
Course of action:
MOC resale to fund divorce, post settlement, buy more MOCs.
Reality:
All the best! :lol:

Lessons to be learned are:
1. Never have SW purchases posted to home address always to work.
2. Always get home before wife so new purchase can be discreetly positioned in collection case and packaging discarded in bottom of recycling bin.
3. Flowers most Friday's, (don't have to spend a fortune, and not every as then it becomes the norm) this never fails to smoth over any "difference's that may or may not crop up!
I hope that it's not too late to implement any of the above, but bear them in mind for next time. 8)
Of course I have never used any of the above....ever! :roll:
Good luck, smile and everything will be fine! :wink:

'It's not mine....I'm just looking after it for a mate - his wife would go nuts if she found it. It could be here a while until he plucks up the courage to tell her.' :wink:
