Has anyone lost a S.O. over their Fluther obsession?

I saw a headline where Jennifer Anniston dumped John Meyer over his twitter obsession and wondered if anyone here had a S.O. give an ultimatum of “me or fluther”?

I think I may be getting close.
I saw that headline too. I think it’s just sensationalism. Whenever people break up, it’s never just one thing.
Umm. No. But I have lost sleep and productive work time, and probably a little head, but not an entire SO.
No, not over fluther, but about being on the computer too much in general. I used to be on here until midnight, 1:00. My husband finally blew a gasket. So I get off of here at 9:00 every night. I don’t like it, but I do it to keep the peace. The rest of the day, I’m on getting emails, IMing, etc., so it’s a small thing to do to smooth the waters.
I would have to point out that if I’d rather be spending my time online as opposed to with my SO, they aren’t that S to begin with.
No, I actually read most of it to my husband. If I’m on, in the evening, it’s because he’s doing something or we’re watching a cheesy movie that I can’t or won’t follow.
I’m so glad that I share my obsession with my husband, otherwise there would be trouble!
Is there anything Twitter cannot do?
twitter obsession, really? waht is he, 16?
Nope. Just the opposite—it sucked my boyfriend in! (He’s around here somewhere.)
@EmpressPixie : At last, a worthy use of “suck.” Congratulations. Cake is on the way.
My SO is a World of Warcraft junkie, so he can’t really complain if I’m on the computer too much. I’m sure it makes him happy because it means I leave him alone if I’m on here all day while he’s playing. And yes.. we have hobbies/activities/events that involve eachother. :)
Mine definitely resents it…
My S/O (Kelly27) and I migrated from WIS.DM together. After meeting on WIS.DM we tend to be a package deal :)
Mine is getting annoyed. He says he’d rather me get a day job, so I wouldn’t have to interact with people online…which just makes me mad at him, that he thinks thats why I come on here. We’re working on it. I think if our old laptop worked properly, he wouldn’t whine so much.
I’ve lost a few things over my Fluther obsession (especially my innocence) but my S.O. isn’t one of them.
no…but my ex SO introduced me to Fluther and we broke up for other reasons…. I think he still visits occasionally….
