I keep reading post of people who evidently have problems with their significant others and their hobbies.
I know not everybody can understand why we buy a lot of lights (or RC models, or audio equipment, or whatever your hobby is), but I'm always puzzled when someone says they have to argue and/or fight with their SO to convince them to let them buy more of what they like.
I can't help but think that if I had a SO who nagged me about my hobbies (which I don't, luckily) my standard answer would be "the money is mine and I'll spend it on whatever I darn well please".
The right of buying stuff we like should be innate and always with us as long as we can afford to do so. I don't understand how some people can consciously give that right up.
Discuss.
