lol, this is/was my wife.
when i first started playing, i put 100 on stars, and my wife asked me if i was going to lose the mortgage money.
she'd have a hissy every time i wanted to go and play in AC. the first time i came home a winner (@200) i gave it to her. now she asks me when i'm going again, but now i get to keep my winnings.
but forget playing during the day- wimminz like their attention, and usually deserve it.

Now, if she wakes up at 2 A.M. and finds me watching TV, she'll say, "You're not done playing poker are you?"

My wife was dubious at first. But since I had been in an auto accident and couldn't work anyway, she didn't mind that much that I put $50 on PokerStars to see if I could do something with it.

Srsly, most wives/GFs are just like all the other posts describe: whiny bitchy nags.Ive only come across a few couples like that, where the wife is mostly cool and supportive of poker. Mostly in relationships where the person who plays is also some sort of professional in another field: doctor, lawyer, etc.
