More like having a phone shoved to your face to see a meme that is mildly entertaining at best.
My Chinese girlfriend makes me watch Chinese Xiahongshu (think Instagram reels) videos on her phone with a cracked screen with her. No, I do not understand Chinese.
My wife with Spanish Instagram. But to be fair, I'm on duolingo learning Spanish
So just get married, and watch videos on your wife's phone.
"I either don't want people to be interested in or excited about things or I want to gatekeep how they gain their interests"
But then you get to show him all your videos on your phone
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.
My wife is incapable of not showing me an escalating series of inane youtube videos unless I get rather firm about it.
My ex would blast Instagram stories while I’m watching a show on tv. That’s fucking annoying
Relationships are about compromise.
But yeah, maybe not worth it.
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.
Wow at least i have adblock and sponsorblock some people rawdog youtube and that frightens me.
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.
Casual sexism is so cute and quirky.
It's not gendered behaviour though; not even stereotypically. Works just as well if you flip the genders.
Xor?
