Tv selfishness
My miswah is a TV junkie and this can get quite irritating. I only watch a handful of programes and trying to
wrangle them around hers can become quite stressful. How much is another sky box and will it cost similar a month?!

£10 a month for Sky Multiroom extra.
Welcome to the world of living with the other half.

can you not send her up stairs with a free view box and tell her thats all she is getting till you think otherwise?
Or is there a good chance you testicles will be sore if you question the situation?

Depends which channels you want to watch - if most of hers are on Freeview, then that may be a cheaper answer.
I know yours are all on the sports and gay-porn channels.

Carlos... you are not yet married..... ALAAAAARRRRRM
It will only get worse from here matey, first the TV then your car, then ............ the nagging will never cease until you buy her expensive shoes/bags, it then goes away for about 30 minutes (half of Top Gear) then it starts up again.  Get used to it. I work away and set the Sky box to record Wheeler Dealers, Fifth Gear, a Car is reborn etc etc etc....i come home to find them deleted, my wife and daughter think it is a sport to wind me up....get used to it ......or RUN |

Communication and compromise before its too late. Give em a inch and they take a yard, put your foot down before its too late.
You are half way to being pussy whipped!!  |

Blimey, talk about role reversal lol.
Peter, your post really did make me LOL. Carl luv, Jon is right (apart from the putting foot down ), it's all about compromise and TALKING otherwise resentment can set in. Always a good test in many ways.You'll be right, it'll work out one way or the other.  |
