It does seem that way and I'm looking for ways to compromise without giving up like I've done in the past. I hear other non-cyclists with similar issues regarding their hobbies/interests. They usually have pretty good advice and I was just hoping to get ideas from people with similar interests. I'm not looking for people to tell me that I'm right and she's wrong because I know my faults and when I get passionate about something enough to set goals and go after them, I do tend to zero in and shelve anything that interferes.
btw... when you use sarcasm, your speaking my language and it gets through. Funny how that works huh?
Thanks
