It's no secret that men love football. And with it tennis, hockey, a variety of races, basketball, rowing, kayaking, water polo, just swimming and jumping from the springboard, or even better with the pole ... Everything would be fine, sport is truly
the whole world, only for some reason most of the time men do not drive the ball or puck on the field themselves, but, sitting comfortably at the TV, are enthusiastically sick for their favorite team or player. When a wife or girlfriend tries to make her claims, she usually hears back: "You do not understand anything." Really, to each his own. In the end, women have a lot of hobbies that men are not required to share. And only a woman from a children's song in which "... for Spartacus our mothers are ill" could be ideal for any man. And it's not about you. But what should you do if you constantly have to watch the Champions League instead of an interesting film or cancel a visit? What if the sofa-TV passion of her husband replaces everything?
What others did.
In Spain, not so long ago, a public scandal broke out. Spaniards declared the European football championship a serious war and even organized the association "Women for Spain without football." "Not only that husbands have taken possession of television and have not been allowed to watch their favorite TV series, they have become inconsiderate, they refuse to take out garbage and fulfill their marital duty!" One of the activists of the movement told the French newspaper Le Figaro. As a "home" recommendation, the wives were asked to hide the remote control panels from TV sets and make regular scandals about hikes of husbands in sports bars.
Many Russians were also ready to fight for a good cause: the 27-year-old Katya excommunicated her husband from the marriage bed for the entire Winter Olympics, but for him this aspect of family life was very important. Strangely enough, the extreme measure has borne fruit: now he records the broadcasts on video and watches the competition while his wife is asleep.
Irina was very worried that she would marry a man who would look like her father. When she lived with her parents and there was a match on the TV (football or hockey), there was complete silence in the house, because Dad had to look at it from start to finish. Ирин the future husband has appeared is absolutely indifferent both to football, and to hockey. He has another passion - all kinds of wrestling (boxing, judo, wrestling). But he himself is an athlete. Ira manages to negotiate with him. He can give in to her when she wants to see something. In addition, they have several TVs in the house.
Sonin's husband was a fan of football, in particular, "Spartacus." Alya Sophia, this was real madness! When their baby son cried in the crib, the husband shouted to his wife to "make" the child quieter. But then one day my grandmother went for a walk with the child, and in the house there was silence, purity, sex and ... World Cup! Sonya sat down next to her husband on the couch, stared at the TV, where 20 healthy men were chasing one ball across the field, and ... fell in love! I fell in love with football!
The code of the man.
It is not necessary to blame husbands for excessive sport. Psychologists unanimously shout that the passion for such spectacles is predetermined in the representatives of the strong half of humanity genetically. The thing is that modern men do not have enough adrenaline, and instead of going on a hunt for a mammoth, they go to the stadium (at best) or on the couch - actively rooting for our team on ... In addition, as experts say, watching sports competitions on TV helps to cope with stressful stresses and relieve tension. For example, in life, your husband is unable to object to the boss or can not advance his project, but here, cheering for his favorite team, he lets out steam, screams, blames and gets some moral compensation and psychological relaxation. And therefore, if we take away from the husband polonoe entertainment, the situation can change for the worse. He will start to break on his family. If you really try to replace something with other scores of matches and various competitions, then you need to do this gradually. Then the person himself, naturally can do without television doping. Or even go in for sports, or at least go to the theater with you. So, how to act in this situation?
"Natural exchange."
It's easier to put up with the hobby of a husband and think of an alternative occupation. As long as he follows the progress of our athletes, you will attend the dance courses, yoga, in a circle of painting or photography. As an option, meetings with friends, going to the movies, shopping or exhibitions are suitable. Fulfill your dreams at last! In the end, you have a free (and from the husband) time, which you can devote entirely to yourself. In an hour the decisive match begins? Urgently sign up for a manicure or styling. You both will have fun and continue the evening in a beautiful mood. The advantages of this method is that you will not be bored and look for an interesting activity for the time of the match or competition. Cons - in high prices (tickets to the fitness club, as well as tickets for cultural and entertainment events are worth a lot of money).
"Support team".
Another way to get out of the situation can be titled something like this: "What happens?" You need to sit down with your lover on the sofa and try to figure out what all these people are doing on the field. True, you really have to show a sincere interest in what is happening. Otherwise your partner might think that you are simply trying to spoil his pleasure. The downside of the method is that it takes a long time and will require you to have a lot of patience, cunning, tact and sense of proportion. However, perhaps, gradually you can fall in love with football, volleyball and other sports. Try to choose for yourself your favorite team or some one athlete (the benefit among them is the mass of cute men). Watch the competition as if you are in the theater. Very soon you will understand many subtleties, you can support any "male" conversation and at the same time give free rein to the accumulated emotions. For quarrels with a man just will not be a reason ... In any case, your partner will appreciate your awareness.
"Hard case".
In fact, the etymology of the word "cheerleader" does not in vain treat us to the verb "to be ill." Sometimes sports enthusiasm develops into a real disease, which simply needs to be treated. If your husband does not miss a single competition, spends all his money on trips to matches in other cities and countries and is not able to talk about anything other than sports, it's time to apply therapeutic measures. Most likely, the dialogue will not help. Your beloved will make promises to change, but is unlikely to fulfill them. Go for the trick. Do not touch him during important matches or competitions (after all, he has the right to a hobby), and for the time of less important sporting events, appoint joint business. The main thing is the correct motivation. "Dear, I can not choose meat without you!", "Darling, my parents will be offended if I come alone!" ... Realizing that without him everything will literally stop, your husband will be able to miss a couple of broadcasts.
