Just wanted to throw this out there to see what bit...,  Personally speaking of course; chess takes alot of my free time which I don't have much of in the first place,  My wife thinks I'm hooked.  Says I am always playing chess,  Although she'd rather have me at home than at the "PUB",  she thinks I spend too much time "Playing Chess".    Any other reflections?...Smile

They are all the same mate, but if it keeps you home (where if they need something doing you are there) and keeps you out of their hair as well, then they have to be happy dont they?

 I must be one of the lucky ones, my wife knew when we got married that i was going to play a lot and that was OTB tourn. with a lot of travel, and she has been great for the past 18 years so my time playing on line is nothing.

I'm going to find me a chess playing girlfriend! That's the plan.

 

Now I'm just going to saddle up this here Unicorn and I'll head off to find one.

 From my humble experience, you have just about as much chance of finding a Unicorn as you do a girlfriend who plays and enjoys Chess.

Chess is not the fault, you getting married was! When your wife said "Thank God I don't have to do that again while walking down the aisle should have been the first clue! I Love You, your perfect, now change!! Nagging is genetically imprinted like small feet. Women have small feet so they can get closer to the sink! Be a good housekeeper like me, everytime I get divorced I keep the house! Teach her to play or else you will sleep cold and alone with Caissa!

Nope.  I completely missed the humor in your previous post:)

If she is not happy, you are not happy and if she is not happy long enough you will be unhappy with half your stuff!!

I think you might be blowing this a tad out of proportion.

His wife is just teasing him.

Ah, the chess playing female.

A scarce breed. 

I think I may have estranged my last girlfriend upon effervescently declaring my love for chess.

Maybe you haven't realized your wife is way more intellegent then you are? While you were thinking of beer and being naked she is way ahead of you on a rocket powered Unicorn!! So play chess and think your smart and then look at your spouse and go OH S--- I am lost!!

It may not have been your love of chess that had your lover scared/

but rather by your cheesic love so effervescently declared.

 Nice one, but  I do not believe it was love of cheese that was effervescently declared.

Where's all of this antagonism coming from? Seems like misdirected anger.

I wouldn't quite deem her a lover, as I'm only 15, but it was a statement expressed most fervently, so your hypothesis may be impossible to repudiate. However, I don't know if it was the entire reason.

Funny you should post this now.  This morning, I lost track of time while I was finishing up some chess stuff.  I hadn't showered yet, and we were running late to go visit my Mom. My wonderful wife (really) jokingly (?) said that there was a definite need to "stage an intervention".

Howabout it Locke? Did you ever effervescently declare your love of cheese to her? Or did you just declare it ebulliently?
