This is my main complaint in marriage, we don't visually see or listen to almost anything the same. We only overlap in the physical world, not TV/YouTube or music. I'm on Reddit/hacker News/YouTube and she's on Instagram/Facebook. She's the primary watcher of our Netflix and Disney accounts. The Netflix account shows 8,000+ videos watched over the years, primarily by her.
It's hard to have even a 5 minute conversation about non house/kids things if you never share visual/audio/mental reality.
- Broken_Hippo 4y agoThat's not marriage, that is your marriage. My partner and I have no issues with this. We talk about stuff each other didn't watch, too, if we found something interesting to talk about. We watched soem of the same things before we lived in the same country, too, and online blends seamlessly into real space easily. Of course, we don't have children so that might be a major difference.
- jvm___ 4y agoAh, I dropped a word. Thanks. MY marriage
- skelpmargyar 4y agoSo why don't you just read/watch the same stuff together?
