My wife hates card collecting. She knew I was infatuated with baseball, and Card collecting when we married. But we met in college when money was not existent - so I wasn't making purchases then. I guess she supposed I outgrew it. She is a penny pincher, and hates that I spend any money to add anything more. She is aware that I have collectors insurance, and what the amount is valued at should the house burn to the ground.

She calls ebay my mistress. And when I'm on my phone she asks if I'm talking "to my baseball card friends."

I don't like to talk about my collection in real life. So when my wife brings it up it becomes awkward. I hate when she brings it up in front of anyone besides my closest friends. I hate trying to answer questions from people.
