My husband claims I never watch any movies he likes but I really can't stand his choice?

[Anonymous]

& says he always had to watch what I like. I feel guilty hearing that but I just really can't stand his taste. What to do? Don't want any arguments

So first of you are already rational enough to acknowledge that his complaint is valid. That's actually well done.

Compromises do not hurt, exploring new genres together can be fun too. Suffering through it is a decent option but of course the point of watching together is to share what you like. Some degree of validation is integral to the equation. Forcing yourself to like something might not work, but making yourself give it a chance should. And even if you do dislike it, don't bash it too harshly. After all it is somewhat a symbol of your husband's interest.

If it is boring you can always spice it up. I've had plenty of success adding little drinking or kissing games at certain cues. It will make even a very bland movie watchable.

Compromise. Occasionally let him pick the movie and watch it together, There's nothing wrong with having different tastes and each of you watching what you like most of the time. But sometimes, compromise!

You can try to find movies that you both like.

Also, and this is important, you can suck it up and watch his choice of movie sometimes. Alternate who picks the movie that way it stays fair.

I don't always like my partner's choice in movies or TV shows, but I still watch them because she'll watch my choices too. You have to be fair.

My family likes horror movies but I hate them so when a scene i don't like comes on i leave the room or i close my eyes and cover my ears.

Compromise or explore other genres together and find stuff you can watch together.

Divorce him! That's the best solution I can think for you!

You won't husband, you won't have complains either!
