Sure you would. I'm sure it's hard to support a family as a cook at McDonald's!
That was a low blow!

That's funny. I guess I should of specified that OSU is The Ohio State University, not Oklahoma State University.
It does remind me of a study which showed more Michigan grads work for Ohio State grads, than vice versa

In all fairness, that's not due to higher calibre workforce coming out of Ohio...that's due to the Michiganders having to migrate outward for work. That State has fallen apart; I think it started when App State beat them in the season opener.
Also, if Ohio State insists on being called "The" Ohio State University, their acronymn should be TOSU. Being proud of being "The" Ohio State University is like saying, "I'm 'The' Number One ********** in All of Kazakhstan."

Well, I have more respect for THE Ohio State University than any college in Texas so...........maybe the 'THE' is warranted?

Wife "Pros" -she bought me a bunch of retail wax when I had my wisdom teeth out and gets excited when I get a good pull. She'll open a box with me when the proceeds come from selling. She gripes when I want to "waste" a Sunday setting up at a card show, but quiets down when I bring home a couple hundred dollars (we outfitted our daughter's room with furniture via a show set-up). She is also honestly impressed with my high-end cards; she knows how much I love Yount and Gallardo.
Wife "Cons" -if I told her I was done, she'd be glad and gets annoyed when I need to sequester myself in the basement for an hour to sort and print shipping labels. She'd also probably be mad that I have a "bad-boy" fund that gets all the money from my TDY trips. I spend some of it on her though, so I justify it to myself.

I wouldn't say that. I think everyone needs their own thing to do. If any of my friends or family or significant other want to be a part of it then it's much appreciated. But I don't need it and I have certainly come not to expect it either. You can't expect people to understand of get involved with everything you do. That's why you need to have common things you both love to do.
What is your problem with Texas or the schools of the Best COUNTRY on Earth??

I think he was mainly touching on the fact that a lot of these poor married suckers have wives that arent indifferent, but rather AGAINST their hobby of Card Collecting.
I don't think I could ever marry a man and be UPSET and a XXXXX about things he's passionate about.........the passionate things are what lead me to them!!!
I mean if you were blowing your whole paycheck on cards before feeding the family or paying bills then yah, you gotta cut that out....
But a lot of you seem to have broads that are using your card collecting as a venting port for frustration and stress!!!
And [MENTION=2520]ChasHawk[/MENTION] - You let us shop, we let you be boys.

1- We're nowhere near the BEST country, and I can tell you that first hand.
2- I have nothing against schools, I'm a teacher.
3- I don't have a problem with Texas, so ok.

Well it seems you'd know about the cards or whatever hobby a person has before you get in a committed relationship. It just seems some people think they will get with a person they like and then force them to stop whatever they don't like or care for. That's dumb to do if the person isn't doing something wrong or harmful.
And yes, I think everyone should understand that bills have to be paid first and foremost. Those cards might look cool but they don't feed you and you can't see them with the electricity turned off. And it's hard to peruse eBay if you didn't pay your phone or Internet bill. But I think the people who go spend their paycheck on cards and don't pay the rent or their bills have a problem that goes beyond cards and the cards themselves aren't the issue.

Well said, everyone's definition of a healthy relationship is different. However, most seem to agree that one becomes 'most' healthy when they do things (such as hobbies) separately. The reason I love her so is because of our differences, as well as our similarities. I would hate to encroach on everything she does, and I know she feels the same. In the end, it is always nice to have something 'just for you'.

Well said. I think of any hobby as something a person does for their own enjoyment. If your significant other enjoys the same hobby and participates with you, then great. If not then they should at least respect that it's something you enjoy even though they might not.
In any relationship there has to be priorities. Work, children, bills, family time, etc all take priority over a hobby. Once a hobby begins to intrude on those priorities, trouble is bound to follow.

You said you had more respect for Ohio St versus Texas schools. I was just wondering what you meant by that?
I was calling Texas a country as a joke
I believe you are 100% wrong. My #1 hobby in the world (flyfishing) is the same as my wife's. It has brought us closet than anyone we know.
Bottom line....if you love your sig. other then sprnd time with them doing anything!!!!!!

I dont think he quite meant that your number one hobby had to be with your sig or not with your sig.
I think he was simply stating that its good to have your own thing that your sig supports you on but doesnt partake in.
Also, the more I thought about this at work and today- all of you who have wives that don't approve of your collecting hobby need to have a talking to by you. Why would they ever be against something that makes you happy and something that you obviously enjoy.
I thought tonsssssssss of my exes had ridiculous hobbies that were a massive waste of money and some just plain retarded but I still supported them in it. (One liked to collect plain old pennies for gods sake)

I believe you are 100% wrong, if you love your significant other then you will allow them to be an individual and cherish them for it.
