IceFalcon28 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Hiya everyone! I need some advice! I started dating this new guy since October of last year and things have been going pretty well! We have done so many things together so far and we already have plans for vacation this coming fall season in 2024. I’ve met his immediate family already and they are all so chill and welcoming. When my boyfriend and I started being at each others homes, we would watch random show together. His favorite show is Yellowstone, which I know is an excellent show! He has already watched the entire series, but I’ve only watched a couple of episodes because of him. Last night, they were playing a couple of episodes of Season 3. I was preoccupied with something I was doing on my laptop. The volume on my tv wasn’t even on, since I can’t concentrate on background noise too much if I’m working on something. I sent a snapchat to him of what I was doing and he noticed that I was “watching” Yellowstone. He asked, “when did you start getting into that?” I told him, “Someone I know showed it to me a couple of months ago 😉” as a joke. He told me, “We could have watched together if you wanted, I wouldn’t spoiled it”. At this point, I felt horrible that it was even on my tv, however, I was so invested in what I was doing on my laptop that I wasn’t even paying attention to the episodes. I said, “I haven’t watched it consistently. CBS is playing season 3 and I’m lost. I’m not really watching, it’s just on.” He suggested that we watch it together, with a couple of smiley faces. I just feel stupid that I put it on, and he saw it thinking that I was watching without him. He has watched some of my shows that I already have on my tv and he hasn’t seen all of the episodes. He’s patient enough to sit through them! Even when I stay at his place for the night, he doesn’t put Yellowstone on. We usually watch something else. It’s his place so whatever he puts on, I’ll watch no matter what. He’s the same way with my place too! I’m just freaking out a little bit, I did clarify that the show was on my tv and I wasn’t really watching it. Link to comment

It's great you're getting along and enjoying your budding relationship.. You seem in the rosy glow flurry of things where everything has to be perfectly synchronous. Of course that's not sustainable. Please give each other room to breathe and maintain your own interests and tastes as well as some shared ones. 1 Link to comment
Popular Post smackie9 Posted January 30 Popular Post Share Posted January 30 I'm not sure what is making you feel horrible. He just made a suggestion to watch it together. I don't think he cares that you have it on. It just sounds like a normal conversation. 7 Link to comment
boltnrun Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Did he get angry with you and accuse you of anything? Did he threaten to break up? Did he start ignoring your messages? If not ..please don't freak out. My question is, why are you so afraid of this guy? Has he done anything to make you afraid of him? And if you're not afraid of him, what ARE you afraid of? 1 Link to comment

Kwothe28 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Ive heard good and bad things about that show. Would probably like it since they are pretty centrist with politics lol Anyway, also not sure why you are freaking out. He just wants you to watch it together. You can start from beggining. Pretty sure he is excited because you watch one of his favorite TV shows. Link to comment
MrMan1983 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I’m confused, where’s the issue here? 2 Link to comment
Starlight925 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I too don’t see the issue. Don’t go looking for trouble where it doesn’t exist. 4 Link to comment
MissCanuck Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Are normally a deeply anxious person, OP? You're creating a mountain out of molehill here. Not even a molehill. A mole paw-print. 1 Link to comment
