Husbands/Yahoo Answers?

Question

I discovered Yahoo Answers about a week and a half ago. I love it. I sometimes stay on it too long. My husband gets really agitated with it. Anyone else out there run into this problem.

I worded my question wrong. I was actually more curious about how many of your husbands get agitated with the Yahoo Answers!

Answer 1

My husband gets aggravated when I am online too long too. I have cut back on my internet time and spent that extra time with him. It has made a world of difference. He used to play video/computer games all the time instead of spending time with me, now I think he realizes how he made me felt. I am a stay at home mom with a young toddler and the internet is sometimes my only "break." This is my way of interacting with other adults at times. I get kind of tired of watching Elmo or Teletubbies or Barney on TV or singing kid songs or whatever. This is my way of having "me" time. BUT, you do need to spend more time with your husband and show him some love! While you are online sometime, send him a sexy e-card to let him know you love him and want him. :-) Then in a way get him to check his email.

Answer 2

Quilty as charged. It's so much as my husband, but myself that I get agitated with. I am staying up too late at night answering questions, and when I first start a long time back, I would do answer questions on my break and I wouldn't take a lunch.

I know I need a life...lol I enjoy helping people, and I think this is a wonderful forum for that! Some of the questions are life and death situations and there's the light hearted ones, then of course you got the nasty ones that like to stir stuff.

I have cut back over the months, but I still come back. And some nights I am willing to lose a few hours if I feel like I am helping someone. Or if I am just having fun answering the crazy ones. I have made 3 good friends(pen pals) by answering their questions. All 3 have been writing back and forth over a year now. I am blessed by their presences in my life.

Hope your husband will let you have so time on here without a fuss, we need different ideas, and points of views from all walks of life. Sharing and caring! Please just don't negelect him or you will be on here asking a different type of question, and I surely don't want to see that! Take care of yourself, now turn of the computer, and go show that hubby of yours you haven't forgotten him at all!!

God bless us all..............

Answer 3

First, if you feel guilty or bad about what you are doing then what you are doing is wrong. Instincts are a powerful thing. The fact that you are justifying your behavior by saying your husband looked through your e-mail is evidence. If what you are doing is not a problem then you wouldn't have to justify it. Be honest...you want to know what the decision was that he made and regretted. Get over it! Why continue to snoop and distrust him? It just increases the amount of time that you feel bad and distrustful. Use that time to heal your marriage. Life is short, don't waste it on bad feelings. Whatever happened, happened. Seriously, does it really matter what the question was? Will knowing what the question was really have a huge impact on your life or marriage? If you said no, then move on. If you said yes, then ask your husband to show you the question. If he refuses then you have a much larger problem then some silly question on Yahoo!

Answer 4

I agree that it is addictive to get on here and try to answer as many questions as possible.

Might I suggest that, since your husband gets agitated with Yahoo Answers and you recognize that you sometimes stay on it too long, that you not get on here or stay on here so long. Surely, your relationship with your husband should matter so much more to you than all these questions. Your first priority should be to your husband and children, not to this.

Answer 5

No. I only log on to my computer if we're not hanging out together. Right now, he's watching a TV show that I wasn't interested in. Sometimes he'll pop in and laugh at my answer or a question. I agree that it's addicting and time can fly on here. I get more aggitated with myself when I wonder if I could be spending my time doing other things....screw it tonight..I wanna sit on my butt! Long day! lol

Answer 6

I love answering Yahoo answers, but I do take time to attend to my husband and family. As long as I have my duties preformed, my husband is cool

Answer 7

I TOO HAVE A HUSBAND WHO GETS AGITATED WITH THE AMOUNT OF TIME I SPEND ON HERE BUT I SUFFER FROM INSOMIA AND DONT SLEEP MUCH AND THIS DOES MAKE THE NIGHTS GO BY FASTER AND HELPS ME TO RELAX WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT I GO TO BED WITH HIM BUT IF I CANT SLEEP THEN I SLIP UP AND GO TO THE COMPUTOR AS LONG AS I SLIP BACK IN BED BY 5AM BF HE GETS UP HE LIKES TO KISS ME BY AND TUCK ME IN BUT WHEN I GET BEST ANSWER HE JUST LAUGHTS AND SAYS WAY TO GO BABE !LOL I TELL HIM I HATE LISTENING TO SPORTS BUT HE WATCHES IT JUST THE SAME EXCEPT I USUALLY WAIT TIL HES A SLEEP AND SOMETIMES I TELL HIM ABOUT THE ?S I READ OR ANSWERED WHEN YOU ARE MARRIED YOU LEARN TO GIVE A LIL

Answer 8

Not my boyfriend, he thinks it's a good thing because Yahoo Answers is like a forum and not a dating site or something adult like that. I'm on a lot but it's really no big deal.

Answer 9

No you should just budget your time so that your husbands doesnt feel left out. Just put aside a certain amount of time to be on the computer and stick with it

Answer 10

Like anything if it is done in excess it is harmful. Negotiate an amount of time with your husband that you should stay on per day, per week, etc, then stick to it.
