Title: What does your half think of you OOFing?
Post by: jonnycool on 20 February 2011, 19:07:59
Despite not being the most prolific poster here ( I prefer to read rather than post on every topic) I still spend about 3/4 of an hour on here most nights, which SWMBO doesn't really 'get', even though she can spend a whole lot longer than that on Facebook  ::)

I remember Hercules was regretting the amount of time he and his missus were spending online, apart, so anyone else get any aggro off their other halves?

As the mrs is sat next to me i had to ask ;D She says shes too busy to go online and it annoys her when she is doing various jobs and im sat in the lounge on tinternet with the telly on in the background. Her biggest gripe is when i try and type a responce whilst feeding my daughter ;D


Apart from that though she says im perfect :D ;)

Facebook seems to waste a lot of peoples time including my other halfs, but I prefer to waste my time and other peoples on here :)

I choose to no longer have another half as they tend to resent you having a hobby & see it as a threat as they can't control it. I know many of you are happily with another half & that's great but personally i've tried both sides & am not happy to be one half of anything, i don't need any one else in my life to be content & self sufficient. If i were to meet some girl out of the blue again the Omega & the Cortina & the meets that go with them, would have to go as would my other hobbies, life choices, work etc.
 Sod that. My life & what i do with it is MINE. I'm totally self suffcient & can make my own decisions & spend what little money & time i have after work as i please.

  This also applies day to day. After a 14/15hr day at work & due in after 9 hrs, by the time i've showered/shaved, had tea all i want to do is put the computer on without being moaned at...one of my exes got the hump if i read a book!!!

   Why would i want to go back to that? :'(

Mrs TB: "Are you on one of your saddo sites?"
Me: "Yes"
Mrs TB: "Which one is it at the moment"
Me: ABC or xyz or 123 etc etc
Mrs TB (in a voice that I know means she wasn't listening/caring : "Thats nice"

:)nothings changed in my house,i cut down my time on the lappy and the wife didnt so its now got to be the norm,technology has killed conversation on a personal level and 3000,000 tv channels hasnt helped but after shes had the kids all day and done a bit of house work cooked the tea her time at the end of the day is spent on facebook and it keeps her happy so i cant complain(much)but i would like to have more time together with no telly/internet/texts :y

which is more or less what we get when we go away in the caravan. We usually have access to telly, but as for t'internet on the hoof ............. I'm doing well by getting it via wi-fi on the lap top in the next room.  ::) ::) ::)

Mrs Sethsmate doesn't mind me OOFing at all ......

She's usually downstairs glued to the TV, watching whatever's currently in vogue :(

She enjoys staying at Newent, and positively loves driving our TD Estate - in fact she's loved driving all three of our Omegas! ;D
I certainly don't get any ear-ache off her (well, not regarding the OOF anyway) ;D

Sue is on Facebook a lot so she can't moan - even set me up an account >:( >:( just so she can get more things for Fartville.

I just ended up connecting the PSN to it and accepted friends from OOF - I might go on about once a month.

Why do we need stuff like faceache when we have OOF :y :y

Post by: SJKOO01 on 20 February 2011, 23:53:47
If I'm good, my other half will untie the long jacket sleeves so I can post threads or replies to threads!.

And would rather me be on here all night than trawling through the porn sites to be honest  ::)  , so I class myself as being lucky as having an understanding lady  :)

Mrs LD does take the pi$$ occasionally but does love the meets... We've made some good friends through OOF :y :y

Oh... And she doesn't mind certain people demanding food from her really :-X ::) :D She's quite proud really as her sister has just started asking her to make the desserts for the pub :y :y

Same here, she hasn't said as much, but when I invited her to come to Newent with me, she gave me that look which said, 'Er, you're not serious are you?'  ;D ;D ;D

We don't. ;)

It's got to the point now that some friends of mine send me invites to parties, etc. from @rsebook. Email turns up with no explanation, just an @rsebook link that you can't follow unless you're gay a member.

Then they wonder why I don't turn up. ;D

Having no "other half" to nag or tell me what to do,  means it's no issue for me but my bosses might not be over the moon if they knew I spent a bit of time on here in company time! ::) ;D

You're always welcome... You know that ;)

My better half (she's watching! ;D) hates the OOF with a passion since I spent an afternoon fettling a new members car on our driveway only for him to leave afterwards without so much as a wave :o
Poor Vamps has got it in the neck ever since! Each time he's turned up here, she's put on a 'I've just drank vinegar' look & disappeared into the kitchen ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D

'What are you looking at? I might have known' is a typical one sided conversation around here. Closely followed by 'shall I fetch your anorak?'

To be fair though she recognizes the benefit derived, and as I'm a 'bloke' interested in 'stuff' it might as well be something I can put to practical use, albeit a little too frequently ;)

Plus it's so much more pleasant than listening to  me ranting at the box all night.
