A lot? A little? Too much?

Are they involved in your hobbies/special interests or is it more like a business relationship; take care of the responsibilities and any free time after is yours?


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

We spend a lot of time together. We have been married 42 years and still love and enjoy each other.

I'm a professional father/dad. That's my job.

First wife was into hunting/fishing. We made a baby in a deer blind. She's still a whore but whatever, I don't hate her.

2'nd wife was most definitely a business relationship, but I loved her and didn't see that at the time.

I take care of my responsibilities, period.

It's cheaper to pay by the hour.

Good luck.

By the hour or minute?

A whole lot more since mid-March. Unfortunately (for me), that includes my mother-in-law.

I hang out with my girlfriend every weekend. She's definitely not the hunting/fishing/outdoors type.

I was skeptical at first, but I kind of like having interests that are exclusive to me.

21 years together. We each take at least one separate vacation a year. Other than that we are together most days. I work 16 days a month and she works for herself so we have a lot of free time together.

We spend much more time together now with the new normal of me working from home.
That has been good but she doesn’t complain when I spend time in the woods.

Still with my starter wife but if that changes for what ever reason, I will never opt back into a purchase agreement. I’ll take Skinners lead and opt for day rental or possibly a short term lease agreement.

Now that we are both retired, quite a bit of time is spent together. We like visiting different small towns in central Texas.

Same here. She’s not a hunter, but goes to the lease with me all the time. I come back from the morning hunt to a hot breakfast and a hot dinner after the evening hunt. What’s not to like about that.

She works for me (I think I'm still the boss anyway grin) so we spend quite a bit of time together. She has her things to do and I have mine, we try not to take work home and vice versa, we have always had separate bank accounts and also have joint accounts. We make it work and we really enjoy our time together.

One week out of two or three. It’s a business relationship with overlapping special interests. I buy kids and she looks after them while I’m at work.

I'm retired and my wife works from home. I'd say we spend a good 90+% of the time together. In 12 years of being married to this wonderful woman, we have YET to have a fight. Misunderstandings and disagreements? Sure. But we just don't fight.

Should’ve made a poll.

We spend a decent amount of time together, not enough for her. Doubt that is surprising to many.

Not just a story, but true poetry. Skinner could have been a modern day Townes Van Zandt.

She’s my best friend and we do just about everything together! The Lord really blessed me with her.

In 28 years we have had some classic knock-down-drag-outs. So far, she has not come at me with a kitchen knife, as her Ma-maw did to her husband laugh. I love her with all my heart.

We definitely need breaks from each other, but genuinely miss each other in about a day and a half. 'Headed to the ranch, alone, tomorrow. up
