How Involved is your Spouse or Sig Other with The Cellar
 
A few years ago my lovely wife treated the computer and keyboard like kryptonite. I showed her the ropes and now she and I have to schedule around each other to use e-mail and Internet.

One place she does not go is the Cellar. I will occasionally call her over to show her a post or picture, but she has no interest in checking it out.

Which may be a good thing for me.

I voted "posts occasionally" but on reflection maybe I should have stepped it up to a regular...he appears on the second page when you sort by post order, has met 4 other dwellars with me and sometimes tell the cellar things before he tells me.... d'oh

Doesn't know, doesn't care. The only things he does online are craigslist and ebay.

Mrs L had a couple posts in a photo thread but lurks infrequently. I'll show her some things that amuse me but that's about it.

The wife doesn't really hate the cellar, it's just that there have been times when she wants to talk and I'm composing a serious reply that has to written just right. She doesn't like the competition.

When you get that snazzy new PC set up... you can use the old one. ;)

She knows the Cellar brought me into your lives, and holds a grudge. :haha:

My SO is currently a big, furry, bearded collie with an attitude problem. He has his own log on (pilau) but finds the keyboard difficult to operate with his paws.

He has, however, a presence here and assures me he is well-liked.


My best friend, J, was going to sign-up a few months ago and then didn't. Maybe he will at some point. Mum occasionally floats the idea she might sign up but never does.

No spuse or SO, but no-one I have spoken to about the Cellar has shown any interest in joining.

If I go along with Dana's scenario, Diz is interested in the Cellar but doesn't post.
But only in the same way he is interested when I am wrapping my Secret Santa present (he nearly ended up being my Secret Santa present I can tell you), or going to the toilet, or trying to find my shoes. Everything I do is interesting to the Diz cat.

My wife pretty much hates the Cellar, but tolerates my participation here. She also doesn't like the competition. I've encouraged her to check it out, but she has no interest.

We'll be sitting in front of the tv watching some crap, and I get bored and reach for the laptop, and she feels like I'm rejecting her when I do that. We've talked about it, and I've been cutting back on the laptop, and she's been trying not to take it personally. But she still hates this place.

Mine lurks to keep tabs on me.

Never signed on or posts, no interest. She surfs more porn than I do.
