What does your GF, partner, wife or husband say about your hobby?

[Republican Kid]

The missus don't mind. She know's that I'm a bit of a gear whore but she puts up with it... As long as I don't shoot her in the ass with a springer again LoL. I'm thinking about getting her a Tornado grenade for valentines. Suprise!!!

[D-BOMB]

My GF doesnt really care, she just thinks Im ineresting because I have "Different" hobbies (VW's and Airsoft)

And why would she care? its not like Im spending her money on it.

[DJBackfire]

My girlfriend doesn't really care as long as I spend time with her. She even wants to try it so that's a bonus

[Deadpool]

Mine is totally ok with it!

She even more ok with it since she started tagging along to take picture.

Heck! Some of the guys know her as "Mrs Deadpool" and some know me as "the photographers boyfriend"

[onemenace]

mine usually gets jealous she cant come out cause someone has to watch the kids but i will be bringing her out to a few games oon

[Ivanatom]

Hehe for all thous "my GF doesn't mind". I wish you repeat your words, after you change status of your GF to wife...
My limit is 2 games per month, but every time I planning to go for event, I can hear same song " You not spending enough time with me and kids ". It is kind of hit in my family. But as long, as I have that song on million other reasons, I don't care too much.

Girlfriend was taking pictures last year... Now she want's to play, she buys her own gear and she bought her own gun so yay!

Just as long as I do what ever with her when she asks.
And hell, I came home one day from work to find her staring at my M4 only to tell me "You've got a crack in that crappy ABS body"
She also knows almost every external part of my gun haha. I pull any piece out and she can name what it is.
I feel so lucky =P

Haha, I'm in a similar boat.

I'm not allowed to buy Cansoft, ABS mags or the like. She said don't buy cheap guns and gear so you only have to replace it once in a blue moon. I like the way she thinks.

Lol i get the same story over and over again.. But i dont even play that many games. Mine hates the fact that i spend money on parts and all that other stuff..

[spaceman13]

My fiance is cool with it,she is even gonna play a game with me on our honeymoon next august at POWairsoft in Scotland.
But i still get that look everyime i buy something new

[Rooster]

Mine tolerates it, lol she knows I love it though and has no problems with me going to a game or picking up an item here or there..

Can't get her into it enough to learn the parts though, I'm not sure she knew the difference between my AK and my M4..

[vondnik]

What can I say....

Real guns... check
airsoft... check
50 bmg............. check
always ask Poff for his 44 mag handguns...check
full auto shooting in the US... check.....
making sure her gear is properly setup... check...
Her own guns.. ( real and airsoft) check.....
Long range shooting... check...
Hunting... check
Drawing a 1911 using Catia as her final scool project.... check
rock climbing truck... check
muscles car.... check

IDPA, IPSC and service match... well she runs the score sheets.....


Well this is an unexpected update... she asked me to register her to the next service match I attend.... and she'll be shoot her m14 and S&W 357 mag revolver for the match... I feel lame with my ar and 9mm..... i'll have to look into that....

yeah I've got it good.

[Hightimes]

She tells me to join the ARMY and fight for our country.

And I tell her airsoft are mens LV, Gucci and Chanels.

[G_unit]

Mine says i'm a nerd...for whatever reason, and i'm trying to convince her to come out but she thinks its gonna hurt worse than paintball and that paintball is somehow superior.

Same here, I am only allowed to buy metal bodies, must buy quality parts. It is acceptable to break something by hitting Azathoth with it, unless it was cheap, then I gotta figure out some way to fund the replacement.

She even pushes me to play games; "You've spent -that- much money on guns and gear, you -will- play games, is there a game this weekend? Have you signed up already?"
