Arcade Spousal Abuse
HyperHautian:
Well, I allways ask before I start any new project... especially when it involves money.. we don't have money issues, but since we DO have a good relationship, I (and my wife) allways talk to each other before we are going to spend money (seems like the courteous thing to do).

My fiancee doesn't seem to mind my arcade hobby too much. Although I have the arcade machine in my office and its out of the way mostly. She mostly objects to the money being spent on the project. :P

After seeing the bills for car restoration and stock car building and racing hobbies, my spouse has embraced my new hobby with MUCH happiness. ;) ;D
The big difference for me is that my hobbies are usually self-supporting financially. I horse-trade and labor-trade to the point that there is no affect on our day to day expenses. The biggest cost is time, and that is my responsibility to keep right. My priorities must be (in order of importance) family, church, work, hobbies. As long as I keep this perspective, she willingly accepts my games.
