My wife is incapable of not showing me an escalating series of inane youtube videos unless I get rather firm about it.

Relationships are about compromise.

But yeah, maybe not worth it.

My ex would blast Instagram stories while I’m watching a show on tv. That’s fucking annoying

[–] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

But then you get to show him all your videos on your phone

Wow at least i have adblock and sponsorblock some people rawdog youtube and that frightens me.

If only there was another option... kinda like a gal pal that would do that weird thing with the wisk and the cattleprod, and didn't try to show you their monster truck videos on a broken Galaxy 4.

Ah well, that must not exist, guess that's that.

There's this nifty feature on phones now where you can send a link to the other person's phone. My wife and I text each other stuff from the internet all day long.

I'm classy. I make my partner wait while I get it on the TV so they don't have to move.

this is a peeve of mine. we all have these incredibly connected mobile communicators. we all know how to copy and paste a link. if you want me to watch something, send me a link. im happy to review on my device but damn do i hate looking at anyone elses screen.

Even the person you love? Because I'll look at anything my girl wants to show me on her phone because I love her and enjoy her company. If you're talking about a stranger (which this post is not talking about) then I get it, too many strangers have shown me porn for me to trust random people when they ask to show me what's on their phone.
