hello fellow yo-yo players,

does anyone here have a girlfriend/boyfriend that also yo-yos?  
I have a lover, we are started as friends in school, we are lovers for about 4 years now,( I think).:heart:  
he does not yo-yo, but like the tricks, and seeing me happy when I’m yo-yoing.🙂  
we are very happy together, supporting each other, and of course , LOVE each other.  
I tried to learn him to yo-yo past summer, he liked it, maybe he tries again this summer, when outside.  
but, a yo-yo player or not, I love him :heart:

My wife has tried binding a few times, but I don’t know if she wants to learn. I think I’ll try again with a responsive for her!

Nahh my SO doesn’t either, I don’t think they have any interest in trying themselves. She’s said she enjoys watching and very similarly, likes that it’s something that brings me enjoyment, and that’s fine, she has interest of her own that I might not be into myself but I show the same respect given and never put any of her interest down and support whatever it is. 😃

Same here. I’ve tried. But she doesn’t want to take on the challenge and time.

To her credit she is super busy.

Nope. Lol, well sort of… it’s complicated. She’s a full time mommy with three of our kiddos. Yoyo is pretty low on the list of “things she wants to do with her small windows of peaceful free time” haha

Every once in a blue moon she will pick up her gamer or harbinger and throw some sleepers/gravity pulls while I’m throwing. The kids each get a yoyo to play with too

Nope. Pretty alone right now BUT it’ll be something I show them, whoever they might be. Hopefully they don’t scratch my baby. 😬 Tis all in good fun.

My spouse doesn’t yoyo, but she tried to learn how to bind back when I got [my very special yoyos](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/mk-1-yoyos/294446) in the mail. I don’t think she was into it.

No. I don’t have any friends or co-workers who throw yoyos either.

This is why I need to come here to get my “yoyo talk” fix every day.

You are a true Angel. I do wish my bride would give it a try. But some people won’t put the phone down no matter what.

My wife hates me for all the money I spend on yo-yo’s. Nothing about yo-yo makes any sense to her.

She does, however, put up with me.

I’ve tried for while to get my wife to yoyo but she only says no no. She made this pouch for me though. It’s butt ugly but I love her so I love it.
