lifeandmarriage

Everyone needs a hobby.  Sometimes you need more than one hobby.  It’ll keep you sane.  It’ll keep your girlfriend or wife sane.  And a sane couple is a happy couple!  I personally have a couple of hobbies…I have my pilot’s license which is an expensive hobby, I also play video games (when I have time).  I also play soccer.  My wife runs…a lot.  But hey…who am I to criticize?  Being able to get out, do something on your own, without any worry about anything or anybody else will make you feel so much better as a person and add greatly to a relationship.  I mentioned to my wife the other day that since I’ve been playing soccer 3 or 4 times a week I’ve felt great and she commented that she could tell a difference!  That’s a wonderful feeling since I felt a little guilty about playing so much.  But, each game is only about an hour no more than the time she goes for a run.  So it was great to hear that.  Which brings me to my next point. 

 

Encourage each other to find a hobby, get out and do something.  Now guys…I know how we think…don’t push too hard.  You need to be very careful with this.  If you push too hard she’ll begin to think you just want her out of the house just to have her out of your house.  So be sincere.  Now Ladies, on the flip side, if your man starts suggesting that you get out and find a hobby, don’t go off the deep end.  He may actually have your well being in mind and wants you to find something to do on your own that you enjoy!

So go out there and find something to do.  Even if it is reading a book.  Get lost for a couple of hours and then find your way back to the one you love!

What sort of hobbies do you all have?  Do you have any problems with your significant other when it comes to your hobby?  Let’s hear it!
