+The_Incredibles_ Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Like any of my interests, it's important to me that my hubby is willing to support me and is open to participating once in a while. We go once in a while as a family and it's fun. I would never date anybody who was not at least open to try the things I was interested in. I don't expect hubby to be a totally geocaching nut though. I actually enjoying going off walking/hiking by myself while he stays with the kids. It's like shopping therapy, only cheaper. Quote Link to comment
+Chokecherry Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I thought of this thread today as I sat cruising this forum and playing Scrabble online with a friend. My office has a long desk with 3 PCs and a TV on it, my wife of 38 years sits about four feet to my left, playing Word Mojo (a Scrabble-like word game) alone and chatting with her girlfriends online. It struck me that we are quite different and yet so very much alike, both sitting here talking to others but not much to each other. We can share activities or a companionable silence. It reminds me that I am so lucky... I can't even imagine dating and the mind games people play with each other. Now see I could live very happily in a relationship like that. Not necessarily the 3 PCs and TV but you know if my partner wanted to mess around on the computer I'm happy to sit and make some beaded flowers or read a book or something and have those periods of silence.

Yes. Fortunately we're both avid readers and the 2 youngest are often either at work or college so we get to share a lot of time in a quiet house. Quote Link to comment
4wheelin_fool Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Geocaching is serious business. Holding hands while trying to find a cache is just silly and foolish. Quote Link to comment
