spending more time on VJ

I would have to ask him if he minds ... of course he is still 4000 miles away from me .. and I cant ask him now because he is sleeping.

Wake him up, this is important!

Jerry doesn't mind me spending time/posting on VJ, since I usually do it during the day while he's at work, or late at night while I am waiting for him to wrap up whatever he is working and go to bed. We both spend lots of time together, but there are times when he has to work on side projects (for extra cash) -- those times I use the laptop and play WoW or surf the net, or read.

Interesting post, Al.

My wife doesn't mind me VJing but she hates hearing about it. She thinks it's dumb and lame even though VJ is the #2 reason her visajourney went so damn well. #1 reason was pure dumb luck.

But in general my wife thinks I spend too much time watching TV or on the computer in general. So I just tell her I'm "working" when I'm on the PC and then she doesn't mind. That she likes. She also thinks I'm not hard-working enough. Which I'm not, I might add.

I like that part I am working on my PC

Then we know other people where every time we see them, the wives of the marriages are out doing one thing while the husbands are together doing something else. It's interesting to see the differences. All of us are friends with each other, women and men both, so we never think of segregating the genders when making plans. So Sujeet and I are together during every possible activity outside of work.

I think it's rather good to have outside interests, activities, plans, goals, hobbies...whatever you want to call them. We aren't cut from the same cloth, so I wouldn't expect him to be interested or even want to do everything with me, and vice versa. And I enjoy his nights out with the boys as much as he does...hahahahaa! I mean why would I want to go to some stinky punk gig and moan about being there, making him have less of a good time, when he can do that with someone who is just as enthusiastic about the gig as him? Also, there is nothing wrong with just being in the same room, if not occupied with the same activity. We don't need to have all of our attention focused on each other all the time we are together.

BUT that said...he DOES watch Gilmore Girls with me...

Once in awhile Sujeet will end up watching Gilmore girls with me, after he says how stupid it is.

We do have a lot of different interests(I like music, certain Tv shows, decorating/he likes figuring out technical things, likes watching the news, programming things, etc hehe), and we do sometimes sit in the same room doing different things and it just feels nice being around eachother even if we are not doing the same thing. We just get irritated if the other stays on the computer for hours straight while we're both home, because it's in it's own room away from everything else. Sujeet is gone about 12hours per day so we try to spend time together a lot when he's not at work. And on the weekends, we both like doing the same stuff so we don't make separate plans. We really enjoy doing things together all the time, and doing things together with all our friends. Maybe it's cuz he works long days(salary jobs, I'm sure you know how it is!). I know it's different from couple to couple and I'm sure in the future we would do separate things from time to time after being married longer.

nizzar and i are the same way. when we're home together, we like to do stuff with one another (although, in this city, we're quickly running out of things to do). but being in the same room is nice. he spends more time on the computer than i do (although, not on vj), and sometimes that bothers me (not recently, though ... when we first got married it was more of a problem. we talked about it, and he doesn't spend as much time on it now -- though i'm not going to be so unfair that i never let him do his own thing. i think we have a nice balance.)

I hate to say this, but we're married, not joined at the hip! For the first six months we spent every waking moment we could together in the same room but now we do our own thing... we don't even always sit down and eat together - if he's busy working on something sometimes I take his food into the bedroom (where his PC is) and then I eat at my computer desk in my craftroom...

I have to say I never come on here when John is at home. I do pop in when I am having a break and a cuppa or to catch up with how some people are doing

I used to be on VJ alot thru the day when I wasn't working.

My husband works all days so never took time away from him being on it thru the day.

Now that I am working thru the day, I will come on and read some threads thru the evening for a bit.

Plus I like going into chat at nite to talk with my VJ friends.

Roger also likes to go online.

He likes checking the scores of hockey games on the net, or posting on the message boards .

We dont spend that much time during the weekend online.

I will come on VJ thou if he is watching hockey.
