How Does Your Spouse/Partner Feel About Your Time at the Computer

    I spend about 6 hours a day on the computer. Sometimes in doing so I fear that I'm neglecting my wife, but she says not to worry and that she's glad that I have an interest that keeps me busy.

    DP Forum members, does your significant other likewise support you in your surfing or other computer activity or does (s)he see it as a rival for your attention?

    My wife sometimes (not always!) get annoyed when I refuse to get off from my computer chair to look after our crying younger daughter, when she is busy in the kitchen :)

    i buy 6-7 magazines for my GF to keep her busy reading those....
    she does say I should spend more time studying than being on net.
    But stupid her she doesnt know I make more than her whole family and my family together online..

    stupid women not her fault..

    had a girlfriend that used to make fun of me then I dumped her like a sack of potatoes and now can be online whenever I want and if anyone has a problem with it. I just point them in the direction of the door and make sure it doesn't hit them in the butt
