think of these message boards and our love for the soaps?
Mine is cool with it. He thinks it was cool that I started this board, and since he used to watch AMC in college, he has an idea of what we're talking about.

Mine just rolls his eyes at me. He thinks I'm on the computer too much. I don't hear about it very often though because football is on, but after the season is over...
Adam has never liked AMC. He just leaves the room and does something else when it's on. My b/f in high school was the only one I dated that would watch with me. He knew if he wanted to make me completely happy, he would buy creme cheese filled croissants and turn on AMC. I kept him around for a while!

I usually post at work, so he doesn't know just how obsessed I am.... ;D I was posting on SOC at home many months back, and he came up behind me (I didn't see him) and was reading as I was typing, and immediately started ragging on me for posting on message boards...he makes fun of me watching AMC. He works out of town, and I work in town, so my lunchtime is peaceful..just me & AMC. But, if we are ever off at the same time, and I rush to the tv at 12:00, he will sometimes come in and make fun of the characters and the dialogue!! Compeletely pisses me off, and I let him have it!! I am a normally very nice person, but don't mess with me and my soap...and my hubby may have to learn the hard way....

I don't have a sig. other, but my roommate makes fun of me, but i think he actually enjoys it! He's admitted to watching it during our breaks from school, lol! My parents dont' really care. My mom talks about it with me.

My mom doesn't mind me watching it since we watch it together sometimes, but my father says that he wishes that we won't watch it. He picked a fight once about it, and both my mom and I said, "Don't pick on Our Soap!"...he never brought it up again. My brother claims that soaps are stupid, but sometimes he watches it with me! ;D
As for the boards, my brother doesn't mind - my parents on the other hand complain that I'm on them too much/long!! ;D

My hubby loved the boards. Otherwise he'd have to hear me bitch and moan about my soaps all the time (well, he gets a lot of it anyways, but he'd get more)

My husband can't really complain because he watches Stargate SG1, which mirrors a soap in many ways. They just have cool guns and aliens.

I do by default! If I want to spend time with my husband, we watch Stargate... or football.

;DLOL, Liz....men just don't understand sometimes, you know?? My old man will just have to take a tongue-lashing from time.... My dad actually got me hooked on AMC when I was a kid...he would come home at lunch everyday at 12, and the tv was taken over by AMC!!! Now, he doesn't watch anymore ....and you, my cyber friends, are the only ones I have to talk to about AMC!!! Which is incredibly cool, I might add!!!

Mandy! My husband also rolls his eyes and makes fun of me for watching the soaps and reading the MBs. And yes, I feel at times that he deserves at least and he makes me also sometimes feel like doing this . But if you've read the Commando post, you'd know why . He just makes it too easy. This is partly my fault, however, because when we first got together, I had quit watching soaps completely. So, he didn't know. It somehow reared its ugly head a couple of years ago. And now, well, now he works at home and I blast the shows as loud as I can to hopefully motivate him into at least GET THE HECK OUT OF THE HOUSE! For even half an hour? Oprah always does the trick, but then it's too late. Plus, I'm not too fond of Oprah, myself. So I only end up punishing both of us! Alas, it doesn't work . He continutes to mock the dialogue (of course, it's mockable) and start conversations about the tree trimmer or the sewer guy when I'M TRYING TO EAT MY LUNCH, LISTEN TO THE DIALOGUE AND NOT LOSE MY LUNCH IN THE PROCESS. The only guy he likes is Manny on GH. Hmmm, that should tell me something, don't ya think?

Oh no, Elana! I am afraid! I have to sleep tonight (or try to) by myself. I never can when Ricky Ricardo is out of town. Sometimes I have to sing Babba Loo to lull me to sleep. I have a sick mind - and one that no one should enter after dark. Especially myself This is probably why I sound so strange at times. I'M SLAP HAPPY AND TIRED DRUNK! Ahh, if only I were really drunk. BUT I'M JUST TIRED. And yes, I will definitely be afraid now. THANKS!
