It really is about finding that truly understanding woman. My first wife simply did not understand my obsession. Even when I fished while her and the kid slept, she would be looking for for signs of wariness in me all day after. She had no obsession of her own and I was not giving up mine so it ended, thankfully because she was a lazy pychopath anyway....
On my very first date with my current and final wife we saw the movie Fever Pitch. If you remember it was all about the guys obsession with baseball and how it screwed up all of his previous relationships. My date could not understand why I was laughing hysterically through the whole movie but it set the foundation for honesty and respect of our individualism that has only grown stronger in the 8+ years siince. (married two)Now it does not matter if we are in the middle of a family BBQ, out of town shopping or if it is 2AM, if I get a call about a blitz she throws me the keys and says hurry up, go get em! She is awesome and because ofthat I actually fish less and want to be with her more (as long as the blitz is not 40-pounders).
Good luck finding that woman and do not start looking until mid-November!
