My wife starts her days very early, and finishes early. She is usually on the couch watching her movies/TV shows by 7:30 in the evening.
I am usually not ready the watch until an hour later.
In regards to our HT, I 100% paid, installed, and agonized over all the other things we go through to get a great system. It has been a long hard road of blood sweat and tears (and a lot of cursing) to get to where I am today, not to mention close to $20K, and that is a lot of money for a guy like me.
My wife has contributed nothing, although I am grateful that she has not complained about all the huge black boxes:)
The problem is that no matter what it is I want to watch (and I often pick movies, like Rom Coms w/her in mind) she does not want to watch them and gets pissed when I put my movie in. I even try and give her extra time to finish her programs.
It happens every night, and each night her cry is "I just want to finish my program." But, as I said, that has been her lamentation every night for 2 months straight.
I offered to build a system in our spare room (using my old HT and a calibrated 73 inch mitsu DLP....not chopped liver) all I asked is that she help me out a little bit financially (all I asked if for $400).
Well her response is "I don't have the money (this is a woman who makes a very good living) and (again) all I want is to finish my program. When I put my movie in (Cyrus, a rom com that she would love) she slammed the door and made it clear in no uncertain terms that I would be talking to the hand tonight:mad:
Any advice is appreciated.
