My wife is not interested in pinball at all and I'm fine with that. Her interests include home decorating, working out and being very active in most of our children's activities. I think that some time apart is healthy for most couples.
I'm at roughly 38 pins (all Stern) and blew out the basement just over a year ago so we could add some more video games and, of course, a few more pinball machines. Through all of this, she's never uttered a peep with the exception of when one of the builders made the mistake of using our first floor bathroom without taking his shoes off.
When I first got into the hobby, I purchased games that I thought my family would enjoy. As it turns out, none of them are fans of the silver ball and that is OK with me.
