DRAMA!

I thought this thread was about how the wife and I are going to see Vincent Karthieser (Pete Cambell in Mad Men) starring in Pride and Prejudice tonight.

Someday Vincent Kartheiser will play a character that I like at all.
How can you not like Pete Cambell? He's the jerk with a heart of gol... er... well, he's cool with gay people as long as they don't hit on him. Thats something right?

As I've mentioned in the TV thread, I've seen like 6 episodes of that show. In which he immediately cheated on Alison Brie. He's dead to me.
 
I can't believe that I never realized the entire time watching Mad Men that Vincent Karthieser was the guy who played Connor on Angel. How did I miss that?
 
My wife tells me I'm addicted to video games because I get bummed when I can't chill on them for a week.
Drama.
 
I have a friend who lost a girlfriend of 7 years and one child because he refused to stop playing Xbox all the time. I love my video games, but I wouldn't throw away a relationshiop for them.
 
My wife sees a lot of couples where the woman complains about the man playing video games. She says it takes all her therapist control to not want to reach across the room and smack them.

Did I mention she's awesome?
 
I've been in relationships (a, singular) where I was dumped for being too childish because of my nerd hobbies and video games. Of course, she, like everyone who gets judgey about that kind of shit, watched a FUCKLOAD of TV. Which, of course, was totally acceptable.

Ex had this problem, even worse she watched almost nothing except reality TV. Yeah that didn't last.

Both partners having a good "zone out" hobby or two is just so important, and it's unfair to pass judgment on someone's hobbies if they are also emotionally present and contributing to the household.

I was in one of those. That was the last time I dated someone who didn't accept my hobbies as part of who I am. That was one of the most miserable relationships I had ever been in and was one of the best lessons I could learn.
