Tyler Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Every time I load FM up and my girlfriend sees it, she looks at me like she just caught me with another woman. Just the other day I was doing a very brief scout of the Conference North/South and my girlfriend walked into the room. She sees FM on the screen and storms out of the room yelling "Well that's just great, you're going to be up all night playing that damn game again!" Why can't women understand? SI needs to work on this I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike7077 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 When I was at uni, I had a girlfriend who used to bring me drinks and sandwiches while I played. She even bought me a notepad for making notes while playing. For some reason, I dumped this girl in 2007. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI needs to work on this I think. Sounds familiar. But since getting the laptop, it's been a mood saver. So long as I'm sat next to her, while she's watching her rubbish on TV, I'll be on FM or browsing the web on the Laptop.. she doesn't seem to mind. Apart from when Football is on the tv, I'm always in the other room from her anyway, watching the football. We have a bliss routine most nights... well, bliss for me haha.

Porthos Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 My wife is 20 Aggression, Acceleration and Finishing. I play when she is in bed or away, or else 6 months on the sidelines for me. I tried tutoring with a more experienced member that has great mentality, but she put herself out on loan for a season. Now she plays poorly, I give a warning, but I can never leave her out of the team for the next game. Should I resign? I only got 2 cups last season, but the board have rejected my requests for improvements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

havokunited Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Well to be fair they want to spend time with you and playing FM takes time away from them thats why they hate it so much so for a PR point of view its always going to fail how about this?
