Tweet

Anyone else have this issue??/ Spouse or partner just not into Halloween or Horror? My wife and kids are just not into it at all. My son is getting into it...he's 3...anyonen else have this problem?? How do you deal with it?

no one is into it like I'M into it... LOL

hubby accepts it as part of my... charm? He used to help put things together and be my errand boy, but he had a stroke earlier this year so.. he's out.. lol

my daughter (13) isnt really into it but thinks its cool I am (cause all her friends like what I do LOL)

my 5 year old just wants the costume and candy LOL

my 2 best friends fuel my addiction by getting things they know I am looking for or would use, but neither really do much themselves. LOL

as far as how i deal with it? well i go on my merry halloweeny way with or without them LOL

My hubby has gone from hating Halloween to tolerating it (due to my influences!) I even got him to sport a black eye as a costume last year (yippee!) So yes, I can relate.

We have worked it out so that we each get a monthly budget and we can't say anything about what the other spends it on. So when I come home with loads of Halloween stuff he just smiles and shakes his head

I always start "warning" him a couple weeks ahead of time that I'm going to start decorating etc. and I give him the low down on the Halloween parties I'm going to be having.

I work on my crafts and stuff at night when we're just hanging out or while he's at work during the day.. I have a sister in law who shares my passion for Halloween so I talk her ear off instead of his etc.

Like I said, he tolerates it but he loves me so it all works out. (And in turn I tolerate his video/computer gaming habits!)

haha i feel you on that! hubby tolerates my halloween like i tolerate his cigars only, i send him outside with those LOL

Definitely YES my wife wants nothing to do with Halloween other then taking the kids trick or treating

my hubby isn't really, but he's not into anything!! :P

My wife isn't into it as much. She would rather have the cute things instead of the creepy. The kids both love it though.

I am very lucky to have an Aunt who is just as obsessed as I am so I get to share with her all year round. My boyfriend of 10 years was at first incredulous about it, then accepting and now fully supportive. He doesn't really participate in the obsession year round or the weeks of decorating but he does all the food and helps with my endless lists the week of the event as well and lovingly listens as I ramble on and on about it all year. While I wish he was into Halloween as much as I am I think that would be dangerous budget wise and I am sure he wishes I was just as into his hobby! I am very lucky he is as supportive as he is

I could not handle being with someone who isn't also into Halloween If I ever do get married, love of the holiday is an absolute must

My wife isn't really into it like I am but she has almost always jumped on the bandwagon a few nights before the big day! This is only because she has always known it was a true passion of mine! We should always support one another if we are to keep a successful and lasting happy relationship. Well at least in my opinion..
