Basically gave up on trying.  The occasional hobby foray is just simpler.

Can anyone explain to me why so many women are obsessed with watching the lives of other women? My wife is literally wasting her life watching the antics of morons. The Housewives of everywhere, Jerseylicious, Project Runway, The Biggest Losers, etc.

We used to watch shows together but I refuse to waste hours of my life watching this shit.

There is a real world out there, but it seems that she'd rather sit on her ass and watch someone else's life.

I agree with you...people are intrigued with other peoples' life etc....(Not family affairs, etc.)..

Take a moment and show her things you are interested in and let her do the same...then come together and work it out... it's worth the energy and time...

Kisses!

I can't stomach that shit either. The only reality TV I wanna see is someone making a sex tape with Halle Berry.

Has our society become such losers that people can only feel better by watching people more fucked up than themselves? Perhaps so they can feel superior enough to judge, since they have no accomplishments of their own to feel proud of. I think so.

Riley, it sounds like your wife would have a lot in common with mine.  My wife is glued to the TV while watching The Bachelor (or any soap opera for that matter) and is just fascinated by the romance and passion, but only when it's on TV.  I've tried all the gimmicks and romance tactics with her over the years (from hot air balloon ride to romantic candlelit dinners), and none of it has sparked anything in her.  It is extremely frustrating.

She thinks that watching a romantic movie is great but actual sex, well that isn't so great.

I agree that so many people watch these shows to feel superior, but I also think it gives them excuses not to improve their own lives. My wife has been off work for a year and a half and I encouraged her to go back to school, but that wasn't in the cards.

I have taken to doing things on my own, which makes me wonder why I am married if I pay a house cleaner, do the cooking and laundry and pay for sex. Divorce might actually save me some $$ in the long run.

this is happening at my house too. It used to be sappy novels about the handsome white knight coming to the rescue......now this is one step lower.  I agree with LIP....

It takes two people to make a marriage work, I am sure your wives probably feel the same way about you men, if you are still married and plan on staying in the marriage, I suggest more communication or counseling.
I also do not like Wife bashing and this is not the site for it.
I know I am strange, right :)

I'd love to go to marriage counseling with the wife.  I've encouraged marriage counseling several times over the years.  The response is "no" and if I press for a more specific reason, what I get is "because I don't want to".  That sounds like really good communication, huh?  

I agree it takes 2 people a lot of hard work to make a marriage work.  But being unwilling to get an impartial, objective professional to help navigate through some of our problems, well that's showing an effort level of zero.

You can't take a women to counseling who sees no problem with her sex life. She isn't the least bit curious about sex so why ever talk about it.

Trust me, I know it's a two way street and some guys are bad too. but there also also women who have it made and have no intention of doing shot for the rest of their lives. We are making less than we did last year and she has been off for over a year and a half yet she still refuses to fire the house cleaner.

Like Chris Rock says, once a woman gets used to a lifestyle, she ain't ever going back.

Almost all of this stuff sounds incredibly stupid; I don't see the attraction in watching dumb people behave badly.  When Warhol said everyone would have their 15 minutes of fame, I wonder if he realized for how many people it would be for making a public spectacle of themselves.

The Kardashians   (spelling sorry) were on TV when I was out eating one night.  All i can say is they managed to make Paris Hilton seem worthwhile.

That your wife is saying to her friends right now, "My husband sits around watching Sports all the time"  "I think it's because he always wanted to be a star in sports but could never make it,  In fact he is even a terrible Fuck!, I'm getting it on the side and he doesn't even know it"

Mellow out.  Life is short.  Everybody has their vice.

get a Netflix account.  it's cheap, simple and fast.  If you have a decent blu-ray player you can stream a butt-load of good shows, and/or movies.  The $10/month plan is great.  Unlimited streaming.

We watch tons of movies, That is our main activity together. But there is more to life than sitting in front of a TV. I don't watch sports and don't look at much porn. I do work alot. I'm starting to find more things to do on my own like skiing.

As for being shitty in bed, I have asked tons of times what she likes and I always get the same answer, "what you are doing is fine". Cosmo tells women that they are responsible for their own orgasms and it's true. If a guy isn't giving them to you and you don't speak up, how the fuck is he supposed to learn? I didn't get an manual in 10th grade sex ed that worked on all women, did you?

No.  And I wish I had, because high school was disastrous.

First, let me say that I don't watch TV hardly at all, except for news.
I think those "reality" shows must have some sort of car wreck appeal. A person can watch, fantasize about being in the starring role, but still be safe from doing anything out of the norm, what ever that is for the person. I always thought it was the gossipy, soap opera types that are attracted to this show. Plus they have total control over their little walk on the wild side. Get your jollies with absolutely no risk!
