You're not kidding!
Mine thought the hours online would cease once the research and purchase was completed.
Now everytime I'm online, even if it's work-related, I receive a scowl and a peek over my shoulder to see if I'm "looking at car stuff again?!".
I'm sure the membership to this club is greater than 2!

I surf on my portable from the bed and converse with her at the same time I'm typing responses, so my wife doesn't miss me too much. 
I have to get my daily dose of A-TL or I go into withdrawl.

You guys need to be one step ahead...
Wife, girlfriend, boyfriend...whatever....just turn the table on them. See I told my wife this site helped me make an informed decision on my purchase of "The Ride" which saves money. Saving money = a red flag to your wife as more for her. I also tell her that I check the forum as aften as possible to keep up with current items...alerts....discounts....etc. Her response..."good thinking honey" BINGO!!!! Touchdown!!!!
Besides, she actually gets more upset that I spend the night in my car they she does me browsing these forums.

The wife has had many concerns over the last 3 months of my Acura-Tl forum research:
I think that now that I have the car (6MT), she is starting to appreciate it more.
She tells her friends it is "Chat,"
I say it is INTEL.
She's coming around.
Great frikin car!!!!!!

Girl friend thought i was weird spending soo much time chatting on the A-TL site. Until I told her that if I didn't talk to you guys about cars (Acura in particular) she'd have to do the listening. Needless to say she quickly approved of the site.

Wife: "You're always on that damn acura site ... I don't care what the stupid car can do or when they are going to fix stuff. Just stop talking about the stupid car already!"
Co-Worker: "What is with you and this damn Acura site.. every time I come over to your desk you are reading some stupid BS about your car. You should be studying for your Cisco exams instead of reading this crap."
Yep.. I think it's time I take this web site off my BookMarks so people don't pick on me.

I'm on several forums, this one (used to have a TL), ClubLexus (have a GS430), RoadFly (have a Z3), and FreshAlloy (was thinking about getting a G35 coupe). Yes, it's addictive.
Luckily my wife just laughs about the amount of time I spend browsing these things.
As far as other females on the forum, my brother-in-law picked up an '04 TL and I think my sister scans the forum for him to see what's going on.
