I've been out for the day with DD and my dad. Approx 6 hours. DP and I have been watching game of thrones. We have series one to three. Last night we were on season 2 episode 4. He's watched it all fucking day and is just starting series 3. I said he should have waited. When am I going to catch up now?! He said I could watch it whenever but I can't as we only have one device to play it on and that he couldn't spend the day waiting for me while I went on a jolly with my dad. I only see him once every month/two months.

So is DP being unreasonable or am I over reacting?

He's a complete and utter bastard - not only has he watched it when he shouldn't, he's told you what happens! I'd string him from a lamp post, myself. In fact, I'll do it for you if you like!

Cassie258 · 10/05/2015 18:18

I asked him what happened. So I can put it behind me and move forward Wink

It's a really shit update.

Dr foxtrot get it now! I love it! Parts of it are basically porn tho and others are quite violent.

Did you ask him for an update OP?

If not, then hwbu for that.

I suppose I don't get the thing about watching stuff together as husband & I never do, apart from news!

Cassie258 · 10/05/2015 18:22

We don't get much time to watch anything so it's precious when we do.

Yes I asked him for an update.

See, I have done this before and I also spoil myself for future storylines because I'm an impatient weirdo. HOWEVER, I always pretend to him that I haven't got a clue and re-watch everything with him, i quite like it. Most of the time, he has no clue I've watched the whole thing once already.

So HE is being VU to deny you your viewing time with him. It's not just about the series, is it, it's the shared experience and just spending time with each other as well.

If you look it up on IMDb, there are plot synopses for each episode. If you go and have a good read, that should bring you up to speed more effectively than his rather rubbish update!

Trills · 10/05/2015 18:42

NO!

What?

You can't not watch 6 episodes and read a synopsis instead!

He can't make you do this.

Next time you are both free t watch together, you start from where YOU last saw it.

ImperialBlether · 10/05/2015 18:49

Do what Trills says. But make sure your husband is tied up and gagged, so that he can't tell you any spoilers.

Cassie258 · 10/05/2015 19:03

I usually just tie him up and gag him anyway.

Have I missed the commandment 'thou shall not binge wat TV series without partner or without clearing with them first' Hmm.

ImperialBlether · 10/05/2015 19:18

It's the law, Isetan.

I'm really very boring when it comes to tv, mainly have music channels on like a radio in the background Blush and the occasional film.

I'd like to get back into watching series and things, I'll have a go at this.

Cassie258 · 10/05/2015 21:34

Can't recommend it enough dr. I love a good tv series! This is very high on my list of must sees.
