> Last weekend, my partner had her friends stay with us over the weekend. We needed to find a movie to watch. This was my chance! I was so excited!
> "Let's use WeWatch!"
> "No, it would take too long. Let's just watch Space Jam."
The guy did a not-insignificant amount of work on an app and his... "partner"... didn't even entertain the idea of using it; if not for mere exposure to their friends, at least for an actual "good" suggestion.
Guy, you might wanna re-evaluate your "partnership".
But hey, at least now I'm inspired to download it and try it out.
I definitely read that last bit as tongue in cheek. Also doesn't "No, it would take too long" imply that their partner has used it in the past? Maybe the process really does take too long, because you have to scroll through a 100 movies before you find one you both like. And in that case it sounds like the partner was decided what they wanted to watch - Space Jam. In that case I'd just go "ok, sure, if you really want to watch movie X then let's watch it". Obviously we're just sitting here digesting someone's life on the internet. It's stupid anyway.
I'm constantly badgering my non-technical partner to try random tech shit & apps that she doesn't want and didn't ask for. She tells me no sometimes, and usually for good reason.
Please tell me internet person with zero insight into my personal life: should I end my longterm relationship just like you're advising the author to?
Seems like you need /r/relationship_advice. Anything a romantic partner does is a Red Flag. The only fix is to immediately hit facebook, delete the gym and fire your lawyer.
