All of this is accurate. I would add that, as the man in the relationship, you are not permitted to openly hate anything that is important or remotely interesting to your mate even though she vocally loathes everything in your life that isn't her.inkognito wrote:Girlfriend is a different realm so I won't speak to that. But when you are married GK...every minute you are NOT doing what they want, is something they hate. Games or otherwise. I wouldn't read too much into when dudes talk about how their wives hate something.It comes with the territory.
Me and the wife share something deeper than pixelated decapitation and piracy. So her hating UO is not a real concern in sustaining a real relationship. But I still reserve the right to bitch about how she bitches about it.
I didn't make the rules. I just follow them. Without question. And without making too much eye contact.
