So how does your partner rate?

[Boozad]

my wife is a 10. She supported my hasty decision to dip into savings and purchase a creased, unslabbed book of unknown origin for $2000, sold by someone I had met before only through the Internet. She knew I wanted it.

 

(The book was an Amazing Fantasy 15 that came back from CGC a blue label 5.0)

my girlfriend actually pushes me to pursue higher grade slabs and pedigrees

My wife is an angel with regard to my collecting habit. I love her very much for it. I hope everyone can find someone that accepting of their passions.

My wife thinks my comic book hobby is pretty stupid.

[ghengishahn]

This is a tough one. I've been with my girlfriend for 5 years now and we both plan on getting married probably in about a year. She doesn't really have a problem with me buying comics, but she feels that if I spend $1000 on a comic, that I should have no problem buying her a gift of $1000. Needless to say, most of my comic buys usually go unspoken.

[thehumantorch]

I suppose I should elaborate and say she doen't really care how much I spend on comics as long as the kids are fine. They're both spoiled rotten and the wife goes without nothing so that part is not a problem.

 

It's the physical aspect she hates. Can I hang a cover canvas? Hell no. Can I display my CGCs? Hell no.

 

That's why when we purchased our house I called basement.

 

I really didn't care what she did with the rest of the house. So now we have quilts hanging all over the place.

 

Reminds me of the old phrase. Quilt while you are ahead.

Me too She helps me with grading on a comic I'm purchasing.I think if people share their hobby with their spouse,and make them feel a part of it all,it can actually bring you closer.

[bergdoll]

My wife isn't into comics, but she respects my life-long love of them. I have a "man fort" where I keep all my hobbies and obsessions in one place. It's called an "office", but it's really a "man fort"

That's a good one, I'll tell her that tomorrow, she'll love it.
