In Reply to: Would you give up your system for a woman you loved? posted by Matthew G. on May 3, 2015 at 15:15:53:
Love goes both ways. If one is passionate about a hobby and is reasonable about time and money devoted to it, the other should at least be tolerant, if not encouraging. I have a separate room for my audio indulgences and the HT is purposely designed to be as unobtrusive as possible, while still delivering good sound. On the other hand, my wife's hobby is gardening and decorating. I give her carte blanche and provide an opinion when/where appropriate. I am always supportive because it is something she clearly enjoys.
In the case cited above, I would say that there were hidden issues, or the husband may have stayed married because of the kids and the likely cost of divorce. That said, in many cases conflicts like these become apparent before walking down the aisle. Some see the signs and move on, others chose to remain blind and endure the consequences.
