Girls, would you leave a guy who watches too much soccer?

[Anonymous]

Yes I would dump him

No I would stay with him

I would handle situation differently

[Starla1234]

No if he was a great guy and I loved him, then no I wouldn’t leave him for watching soccer, it’s what he loves and I would also love whatever made him happy. BUT if he was watching so much soccer that it was interfering with his everyday life and was making him completely lazy and careless towards everything else (including me), then THAT would be crazy annoying. I would talk to him about it, and if he still didn’t care and prioritised soccer above everything else, and it made me unhappy, then I’d consider leaving.

[Asker]

Sounds fair.. I try to keep it under control and most guys do, but there’s a rare few who go crazy

[Serenity_87]

Depends on how much I loved him. But generally speaking I wouldn't really want to spend my life with anybody who did nothing but sit in front of the TV all day. But if he just liked soccer a lot and watched it frequently but still had I like other than that then of course I wouldn't leave a guy for having his own interests. So I guess it depends on how much is too much.

[Asker]

I agree! I guess I fall into the second category then… thanks for your answer

[hi_it_is_me123]

What do you mean too much? If he neglects me, our relationship etc because of this, then yes. I am actually a soft clingy person. So if he cuddles and give me kisses while watching soccer, then i may tolerateit-i dont know if you can be romantic while watching soccer lol.

[Asker]

Personally I can be romantic while watching yes.. not sure this is the case for everybody.. I usually watch 5 hours on the weekends sometimes midweek when there’s champions league

[spiderwoman1997]

I would not leave him but I certainly will tell him to knock it off before I give him a beating lollll

[Asker]

I would behave if I were your guy lol

[spiderwoman1997]

He better

[PrettyPriya]

I guess it depends on the definition of too much. I think the threshold will be different for people. If it got in the way of our relationship, I would say something.

[Asker]

That’s fair! Personally what would you say is too much?

[PrettyPriya]

I don't know that I have an exact amount of time in mind. My current SO watches sports. He watches the teams he supports, depending on sport, and really nothing else. I'm okay with that.

He often does it when I'm busy anyway. Too much would be when we start losing that quality time. That is more a feel type of thing than watching the clock and deciding too much.

Luckily, he is pretty respectful when it comes to that, so not much of a worry. Again, I think it is going to vary by person. Look forward to seeing other responses.

[Asker]

Ok that’s totally fair.. I guess it’s my only guilty pleasure,, I watch too much soccer on the weekends and I wonder if that’ll be a problem for my future partner. Thanks for your response.. I’m looking forward to reading what others would say too

[MissStrawberry912]

Hahaha nah, that’s funny and random. Personally I grew to love soccer too esp live ones :) I think it will only be an issue if he don’t make time for our relationship and balance it out.

[Asker]

Sounds fair! What team do you support?

[MissStrawberry912]

Haha I actually dont watch the big soccer games (yet), it has been more so supporting my local soccer peeps!

[Asker]

Oh I see

[ItsMeElliana]

as long as he's giving me cuddles and kisses, even while watching soccer, and gives me his attention and love and spends time with me too, going out or stuff. I'm fine with it

[Asker]

Fair enough

[Anonymous]

Depends what you mean by "too much". Does he watch so much that it interferes with his job? Does it cause him to never see me? Can we not go on vacation because he won't be able to watch while he's traveling?

[Asker]

Mostly on the weekends, like 5-6 hours of watching soccer

[FelicityChi]

If he prioritized soccer over everything in his life including me then he should just go ahead and date his soccer.

[Asker]

Lol damn

[sage2021]

It's better than him watching porn and going on dating sites. Soccer is an innocent game.

[Asker]

True haha

[erin_ireland]

You can't dump an Irish for watching football, you'd die alone :))

[Asker]

True that ☘️ I’m not Irish but all love to you guys

[dustybiker]

You’ll burn out eventually and not want to watch anymore.

[Asker]

I doubt I would burn out hehe
