Does your significant other mind poker?

[Mizzles]

I posted this a few months ago in the mid-high stakes forum. Thought I would try it again here. Apologize to those who have already voted in advance...

I am posting this to get a general idea of how our GF or wives feel about us playing. In my last relationship she absolutely hated poker playing, just couldn't stand it. Is this the norm? Do most women see poker as taking away from or seriously impeding the man/women relationship?

You forgot the "I am destined to be single forever because I play poker online all day and never get out of the house" option.

She doesn't mind it. When I show her that I'm making money she understands.

Hence, she studied for finals tonight while I 1-tabled and read SSHE.

Oh, she also doesn't care because her birthday is in a few weeks.

She left me when I started to play on Gaypoker.com.

You forgot: She loves when I play and win -- encourages me to continue -- yet hates when I lose and tells me I'm an addict with big problems...

I guess I am lucky. She enjoys playing 2/4 in the casino, while lets me play NL or whatever I want. She only gets annoyed if I go too often, but even then says I am an adult. But usually, she's right in the casino with me, fooling all the old guys. Flips over a boat, "Is this good?" haha

After you've been with a woman for a while, she'll hate anything that's not spending time with her.

Does the last one mean "I once got head while multi tabling"?

Because that's the one I voted for.
