My SO _loves_ Bab five. In this he is no different than many of my friends who throughout the years have tried to get me to watch the show. I am interested and tried to watch in the past but didn't have enough time.

He bought the first season from Amazon on DVD. He wants me to watch the entire thing in an all weekend marathon as soon as we have a free one. I told him I can not sit still for that many hours and at the very least we need to split it up into two days over two weekends. He says I am spoiling the fun of it. I can't handle watching that much TV though.

I am counting on you, oh readers of my lj to tender your opinions in the following poll (btw this is meant to be taken lightly)

[Poll #75560]

The results will then be appropriately displayed in a graph so he can see that I am right.

HEY....

Granted I am very protective of him, but I think you are being selfish.

He wants to share an Extremly important thing for him with you. Just look at his shleves...B5 everywhere. It's one of those things that when you examine how important it is for him, you just gulp, smile and nod.

Do the whole freaking weekend in one shot. It's not unreasonable and he should NOT "owe you big" for it either. Set aside a weekend, curl up on the couch, and just sit and watch. You two can even make a party of it - he has plenty of friends who will jump at the oppurtunity to spend ONE entire weekend watching the show.

And it's not your freaking Duty to watch TV marathons with him either - WHY view this as a Duty? It's ONE TV show, it's a Big deal to him, and viewing it as a Duty spoils the fun too. It also builds up resentment in your mind toward him when you view it as a DUTY.

Set yourself aside this time Please, and put Him first.
