The MANCAVE

[45alive]

What would you guys out there say is a FAIR amount of time to spend in The MANCAVE each day ? I kind of feel guilty spending too much time inside there, but My Wife watches T.V. and I surf the internet because she hates the internet and I hate T.V. So is it neglect and being selfish or ???

My wife and I know that each other needs "their time".

Sometimes it's 1 hour, other times it's the whole damn weekend.

A mature relationship understands this and as long as neither is feeling isolated from the other then the answer is no.

You could just spend that time bumpin' uglies with each other instead of reading the dribble I post...


You're making me feel like "the other woman" now....

Horrible pie-anna music... broken engrish text... what are the 8 signs my life is over?

 

[45alive]

Piano music is very EMO

 

[Stomper]

That must be code for 'orrible!

I think the key to a great relationship is not having any contact together. You can't fight if you don't interact.

Kidding aside, it is healthy to have your alone time. We have young kids and it's even more important.
Because you just don't get a break. It wears on you, and to have an hour or so of peace, quiet, and to just shut your brain down is so recharging.

I have a shop, a garage, and an office - Mancave must be a metro term...

@45alive Are you crying in your mancave? The NYTimes reports that real men spend time each day crying.

27 Ways to Be a Modern Man

25. The modern man has no use for a gun. He doesn't own one, and he never will.

26. The modern man cries. He cries often.


Of course, 26 might be because of 25.

On a serious note, do you touch her each day? And that is not some sex euphemism. Hold hands, rub shoulders, hug, rub her feet - maybe while she is watching TV?

Do you let her know you are thinking about her each day? Just a few words to demonstrate you pay attention to her.


These are important things.
