In my opinion, there are women that deserve the attention and cooperation from their spouse and then there are control freaks. I bet most relationships there is an element of both. In some ways women seem impossible to please. You can never do enough housework or help with the kids, and when you do, you don't get any credit for it. Frankly is not fair. But having a hobby is the equalizer. UNLIKE other areas
, you simply don't need them, and that bothers a lot of women because they can't control you.....
So they focus all of their considerable negative energy on the thing you seem to love as much if not more than them (miniature football).....
But because we are commanded by God and are made to love and respect our wives, we have to try to make them happy, at least some of the time. And that may mean going shopping, watching the kids, doing dishes or hey, mabye even suggesting that they get a worthwile hobby (that does not include the milkman or the guy next door) and getting off of your **********!!!
But stand your ground. If she loves you, she will let you have your toys as long as you show her some respect. If she doesn't understand that, you may have a dictator on your hands and you are more a servant than a partner.
Then you have a serious problem......
