GRRR!!! FI really pisses me off sometimes!

[Married_In_Maui]

OMG, good to know I'm not the only one that has to live with this. Most times the DVR is full b/c of too many car/truck & fishing shows to be able to fit my stuff. Or he will turn it off halfway through my show being taped, then I start watching only to be disappointed to find the end is not there. He says "whats the big deal, it will be on again." I really do think it's a man disorder

 

But I love him anyway!!!!!

[FutureMrsLewis]

It's definitely a man thing lol

 

Just do what I do in these situations: Take a deep breath, slap him over the back of the head, and let it go

[CrystalM]

I too get the half recorded shows. Or I MAKE SURE that something supposed to record the day of and when I go to watch it, it isn't there. I ask FI about it and is response is "I didn't delete them" or "I don't know what happened" UGH! YOU DID DO SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!

 

 

In the last month I've missed 90210, Gossip Girl, Grey's Anatomy, and Desperate Housewives. All of which are shows he hates (and it's not like I make him watch them!!!!).

 

Maybe I have a DV-R ghost

Haha - re-reading this I wonder if we all spend too much time watching TV? But...I don't think I'm going to stop.

I know that I have watched more TV since moving in together then I have in my 30 yrs of living collectively. Not only is there TV constantly being watched but he's a sports addict and not just one sport..no no..every freakin sport known to man..and every game is "babe but its the first game of the season, or the playoffs, or the blastoffs or whatever the hell else they call games" I get no break because when one season ends another sport begins. AND when I tell him i'm bored shut off the tv he tells me look its only 10more min..which is like dog years because 10min sports time is like an hour real time. romance? passion? its happening between him and espn lol. The best times we had in this appt was before the cable guy ever showed up

[Butterflyf369]

I can relate. As I type this my FI is measuring his new projector screen to make sure it's 100 inches...like I care and can really tell the difference :0)

[karenk77]

lmao..omg mine did that too!!!!!!!! whats wrong with them??

and he looks at me like I committed the only crime if I forget to turn on the channel in HD and just watch it on a "regular" channel because "we dont do that in this house"

siiiiiick!

[Hartyt509]

Yeah mine does it too when he's home or he puts on star trek or some other sci fi crap and thinks because i'm not physically looking at the screen i won't mind lol i can still hear the frigging thing!!

 

But sorry girls I have the best one of all - FI goes to Afghanistan tomorrow and says oh well we've got life cover haven't we! I said errr noooo it won't apply if you haven't told them beforehand!

 

So i've spent 3 hours searching the net and being told sorry we won't cover! I mean ffs !! how frigging stupid is the arse that I married - NO INSURANCE!!

[nibsmom]

My FI is like that with the Tivo too - all he records is Family Guy, and it's all he wants to watch...we watch like the same five episodes over and over...and it makes me NUTS!!!
