AIBU to say I don't want to watch the Arsene Wenger documentary?!

Husband big arsenal fan. For some reason wants to watch this with me even though I couldn't be less interested. His argument is that it's a really big part of his life and so wants to watch it with someone he loves.

I don't really understand why he wants me to watch it though, like what will boring me to tears do for his enjoyment? Hmm

He says it's 'sad' that I don't want to watch it with him

I’m a massive Arsenal fan; and I’m excited for the documentary… but I won’t make my husband watch it with me. He probably will, because he likes football and watches Arsenal with me, but I wouldn’t ask him if he didn’t offer, and I wouldn’t dream of putting pressure on him if he didn’t want to…

Is it that he doesn’t want to watch it alone? It seems an odd thing to be so keen to watch with you! It’ll be interesting but it’s not really the type of thing you make a romantic evening out of or whatever 😅

Tell him you will watch it, if he sits and watches a marathon of Leonardo DiCaprio films with you. Just your fave 10! Coz you LOVE Leo! Grin

Or replace Leo with another actor if you prefer another one: Tom Hardy, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt etc...

Haha I watched it. It was fine. I just don't really get it... if I wanted to watch something he didn't want to watch I'd just watch it on my own! Weird man.
