Roller...lad....

NEVER tell them until they're pregnant with your child. I fear for this relationship now.

well sometimes you dont have any choice about telling your missus about your obsession especially when your bedroom used to look like this and then the next morning she asks why do you like Transformers so much?





FYI normally there would of been a coulple more TF posters on the wall in the above pic

nice DS9 model Loopus

i think shes cool with it, i'll try not to nerd it up from now on though

Me and my missus were friends before, so she knew what she was getting into when we started.
She isn't really happy that I spend money on Transformers and Lego, although she will happily play with either

This thread split of the Questions by newbies thread.

Collecting TFs is a odd thing to bring up on a date but if it's going to be serious relationship and if they are going to see your bedroom you're not going to be able to keep it a secret for long.

For those on the board dating guys there is the advantage that guys tend to remember being into Transformers themselves as a kid and will tend to think it's cool (well more so than girls, women members of this board excluded of course!).

Hypothetical

Riddle me this;

Your well into the relationship, its serious.

She says "I don't want you to buy anymore TF's, its me or them"

Do you:

A) Stare at her blankly, then casually pick up your phone, call Kyle and say "Do you want to go TF shopping and then maybe a strip club"

or

B) Give up your TF's, Arc weld a shackle to your neck, and ask her to take you shopping for groceries.

Only the tough questions around here!
