Wife Can't get off the Nest

Solomongrundy1

My wife spends every waking moment and a lot of time on the nest. I tell her about it and she gets mad at me for letting her know. I understand that some people may have insight to things but she seems more voyeur than curious. It's really starting to bother me. How do I get her to chill and unplug and join reality for a little while?

I would start with not posting on the same community you're trying to get her to leave.  Seems sort of hypocritical, doesn't it?  If you're genuinely worried about her time spent on the computer, TALK to her.  Communication.  It's a crazy, wonderful thing.  Take her out, go to a park, go on a date.  Give her something to do.

Did she just sign up? Maybe this is a novelty and it will wear off in a little while.

Also, perhaps she needs some outlets outside the house. To echo previous poster, maybe you can take her out and do some stuff with her.

Lastly, before you complain about her time spending activities too much are there things you do, which "waste time" and that she wishes you put aside a little more?

You two need to sit down and communicate about this.

Here?  And this takes up so much time?

This place isn't exactly hopping any more.  What in the hell is she doing that is such a time suck?!

Haha... this! How can you expect her to not be on here if you're on here too?!

I feel like you're all missing the point - he wrote this so she would see it!

Tell her about GBCN! Then she'll spend all of her time over there, and you'll probably never see her on The Nest!

I call BS unless she has some serious trouble reading. It takes about 5 minutes to read a month's worth of posts on here. What's her User name? We'll make fun of her and she'll leave.
