Some insightful discussion inthis post.

I agree 100% that communication is essential to a healthy relationship and to ensuring there is mutual respect. I rememebr watching the show LOST and just shaking my head at how drama was created because none of the characters were able to perform basic communication. I wondered whether this was common in society and shuddered to thinking if I acted that way in my marriage.

As an update. This weekend, I watched the game and my wife watched the MTV VMAs. But when I was freaking out in the PA winning pass to Jennings I called her in the room to see it and she gets excited because she know it is important to me. I howver did not get as involved when she told me about the Kayen West incident since I was so upset about the packer's O-line.

In terms of the philosophy that the husband and wife should always do their own thing, I think there is compromise. I believe that is important to plan to do things as a family and it keeps the marriage healthy.

The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool - R. Feynman

My wife is like this too. Even things she honestly couldn't care less about will excite her if they excite me. She likes seeing me excited, if only because she typically reaps the rewards. 😉

Of course you do. Men with perfect legs and butts in tight pants . . . it's a no-brainer. :magnifyglass:

What I have learned in relationships is this: You have to have things in common with each other, things you enjoy doing together if you do not then most of the time you will lead separate lives. He does his thing and she does hers you never come together as a couple.

I would NEVER take something away from my spouse that he truly enjoys doing, so I would get in there and try to enjoy it with him its called compromise. You shouldnt have to work that hard in a marriage if its a happy union.

Football has cost me two relationships, though I suspect they were not that important as self-interest appeal (admittedly on both sides) was the order of play.

My obsession for the game is borderline unhealthy, from watching meaningless collegiate games to never missing a down for the Packers - atleast 14 hours of my day are football related (even at work, I have NFL network playing as white noise)

I guess I ask for too much - just understand me!

Did you have fight to arrange football days with your spouse?

Nope. When we were younger we may have fought but not about sports.
If you are fighting then maybe you need to give her a little more of your time. If she won't let you spend 3 hours watching a game she may be a little selfish and you are having problems other times than just on Sunday afternoons.

Does your spouse watch the game with you?

Usually but not always.

Or are you in your third marriage because Sundays are precious?
nope my 1st. If it was important enough to her I would give up watching the tv. I would give up my season tickets. All she would have to do is say so.
