Congratulations and many happy years together!

Single.....just me and a few pets.They don't mind my collecting cards ,but I do mind them collecting small vermin.
I'm glad to see that spouses help nurcher each others hobbies.

Married here.... five years and counting.

Before I was married, I collected a lot more than I do now.

With a house and all the bills and everything else that goes along with a home, I had to reduce my collection a bit.

But I am still involved with collecting and always will be, it is something that takes me away from the "real world" and I enjoy it greatly.

I just got engaged on Jan. 4th for an Oct. 11th wedding. My fiance is not a collector at all but she is one for believing in giving each other "space". My main hobby these days is doing audio and video of bands that allow it. She has never got in the way of that so HOPEFULLY she won't freak too badly about the collecting. Hmmm....maybe I should work that into the vows????

Well, the countdown can officially start- 7 days from now I will be married!! I too have an assigned room for my collectibles. We were discussing buying a house in the near future and I told her that the only requirement for me was that the house had a basement so my band could have a practice space. She said the band can practice there but I wouldn't "junk" it up. Hmmm, wonder if she thinks I want to move the "collectibles" to the basement??? Regardless, she is STILL the one for me!! I can't wait till next Saturday @ 7:30 PM. Then it's off to Playa del Carmen, Mexico for 8 days.....wonder if there are any card shops there??

Congratulations Cecil!

Wishing you a fantastic day & a wonderful married life with an understanding wife.

Thanks!!

Hey Cecil. Congratulations Easy solution, get her addicted to cards as well. Then you can take over the whole house!

Thanks Jen! Hey, I think you have a great plan!! I'll let you know how it turns out!!

Congratulations Cecil, I did not realize that was happening this soon!

I've been married 25 years now. Hope it works as well for you.

Mike.

Thanks Mike. Yeah, only 5 more days! Congratulations on your 25 years also.

Cecil

congrats cecil! good luck and may you have tons of years of happiness (and collecting).

Thanks Anjee!!

Cecil...... Cecil>>>>>>>> WHAT are you doing???????????
Just kidding. Congrats! Make sure she has a hobby though, otherwise she'll want to know how much you spend on your cards.

Thanks. Yeah, she has a hobby- scrap booking. That is an expensive hobby in itself, so I shouldn't have to worry too much.

I am single, but looking for a woman with cash who loves card collecting like I do.

Wow an old post.
I'm married {11 years}.
Been a sci fi geek all my life.
I was a big toy collector too when I was a single guy {yes, I still have my collection of toys. Late 80s to late 90s}.
My wife and I are members of the RI Science Fiction Club, but she isn't a huge SciFi fan.
As for my trading card collecting...as long as I keep it realistic, she's okay with it.
Hey, it doesn't take up 1% of my toy collection.

Neither. Not single, but also not married.
I've been with my boyfriend for 11 years now , so we basically have a domestic partnership (or common law marriage - whatever you want to call it), but we never walked down the aisle.

Still married since my last post in this thread. My daughter is now 7 & my son is 4. Time flies !

I've been married for 7 years next month. My wife tolerates my card habit, but only just barely...

Been married 11 years and my wife only just toleratels my card collecting and dealing activities. She's hoping that as I wind down my dealing and go into manufacturing them that there'll be a lot less cards around in my office, shall I tell her now or wait.........?
