My husby is a chelsea fan, a football fanatic. you complain of his not responding properly to your calls, My husby hardly talks to me while watching ball, even to answer simple question like what will u have for dinner must be repeated no less than 10 times. when his club is playing, he is watching, at the same time, his Ipad is in front of him with about four football websites, he is chatting w his friends and colleagues using whatapp on his phone. Ask me where can he place me in all of these? And he crowns it all by buying a new chelsea jersey each year. he will only tell me after buying it so my complains will be useless. I hated at first, i whined and nagged butI have grown past dat. Now i watch their major matches and each time I watch, I predict the event and my predictions have been coming true and they win. So now, I am paid to watch important matches along w him, celebrates victories at my choice of restaurant, and I think it pays better than nagging. Two yra ago, we went to Uk, i helped him to locate chelsea stadiun and joined him for a one hr tour though i didn't foolow him to watch live matches. I still use dat to win him over sometimes. I have also come to realise that all men are addicted to one thing or the other, either work,sports , women, drink etc and if u ask me , i prefer football to women,drinks or nite crawling. So my dear, join him to keep him and be happy. when i am not interested in watching sports i face my own hobby which is reading. 8 Likes |

pkween: A fiancée called up her fiancé yester night and the reply she got was, this is a bad time to call me because I am seeing a match. Tell me, can his watching of football match be more important than the conversation with his fiancée in a distant courting relationship?I didn't know how important football was until I met my bobo. I tell myself that the only thing that would make him not pick my calls is if he is watching a football match. I have learnt to enjoy the game with him even though at first I didn't enjoy it. He is a Liverpool fan and so to help him enjoy his game and see what he sees, be happy when he is happy, cry when he cries, I have also become a Liverpool fan. My bobo can skip his books to watch a movie even if he had exams the following day and I hear men can even skip sex to watch a man! It is in them. The best women can do is to enjoy the recreation your partner enjoys otherwise he would be going outside to enjoy such company and God hep you if he meets a woman who also likes his recreation. He would naturally be drawn to her. To avoid all this, I have told him to teach me football, tell me the names of players who play, explain some basic, simple football terms and I have found out when I ask such questions, there is always joy and happiness in his eyes. He is happy I enjoy what he loves. I am happy too. When we get married, I want him to be able to come home and watch a match not go the bar, some place because his wife doesn't enjoy ball. I would encourage all women to enjoy whatever your partner likes. It may not be football. It could be golf, go play golf with him. My sister's husband doesn't like football but he loves his guitar and can stay in his room playing guitar even skipping his meals. Now my sister plays the guitar too and she enjoys all those sounds that come out of it. It wasn't easy at first, but now she is happy and her husband is happy too.If you don't like whatever recreation your partner likes, or you know nothing about the skills, ask him to teach you. It is called recreation companionship. It is one of men's most basic needs after sex and respect. The key is to seek out ways to meet the needs of your partner, this way, your own needs would be met too. Remember, no matter how much complaining you do, how much nagging you do, it would NEVER take football away from men! Enjoy the game with them is the key!!! 4 Likes |

Ujujoan: Fist off, if he's in a public bar, the noise will be too much for you guys to have a reasonable conversation. It'll be better if you waited for him to get home. You are a woman that understands that one of a man's most basic needs is recreational companionship, that is enjoying what your man loves! Thumps up to you sis! |

@op some things are not meant to be questioned. One of such is a man's love for football. One of the very few things a man falls in love with very early in life is that round object. Or can't u see hw a young kid sobs if he is deprived of the chance to run about with a ball when he really wants to. Now imagine him growing up with that love, that passion. Such is a man's love for soccer. I understand your concern because I had similar challenge with my wife in the early days of my matrimony. Understanding and tolerance from my wife saw us through. That is exactly what relationship is all about. Tolerating each others weakness because a man's love for football is a serious weakness that CAN NEVER be overcome. Now my wife prays that Man Utd wins always because that is a source of happiness for. PROUDLY MAN UTD |

To complete my gist, my husby was involved in an accident sometimes ago, was in coma and had to go thruogh surgery. after sitting in front of ICU for over 18hrs praying not to become a widow, I was finally called that he has woken up. He asked i was told i had an accident, i said yes. what is today, he asked. i replied saturday. he said chelsea played yesterday and i was suppossed to watch it. Na so doctors and nurses burst into laughter. Can u imagine that! H e asked the doctors who watched it and one gave him a fake score and fakes name of goal scorer cos he didn't watch. I stil laugh when i rmb this. I have often heard that if you want to know wat is paramount in a person's life, listen to them wen coming out of coma or anasthesia. you will be suprised. when i rmb i only pray that God ll take the first place in his life, football can be next but not the reverse. So to the poster, YOU AIN'T SEEN NITHING YET. lol 1 Like |

This should not be a souce of tension in relationship, rather it is a language that could further create bond in the relationship. What the partner should do is to start picking interest and change mindset, before you know it they will both enjoy it together. |

if she truly loves me, she will never disturb me when i am watching football. i also respect her hobbies so why will she not respect mine? Anytime i am watching live matches @ home, even the kids knows dad is busy. When my mom call me and i told the old woman that i am watching football she would just joke and say okay i will call back "baba Messi" |
