Obsession...

Every man has an obsession.  Some men have multiple ones.
This obsession could be anything, some examples being: hunting, fishing, restoring cars, playing video games, building computers, watching a sport, or even sometimes work.
What do you do when your husband is in the midst of his obsession?
There are various responses and actions you can choose.
You can:
A. Confront him about it.
B. You can mope and pout.
C.You can join him.
D. You can use the time he is busy to do something yourself. 

If you want what is best for your marriage, there are right and wrong answers.
A Wrong  
(He will take this an attack on who he is as a person and think you do not respect him)
 B Wrong
(This will make him want to spend even less time with you.)
C Correct
(Men often think it romantic when their girls join them in their hobbies.)
D Correct
(Examples ranging anywhere from learning a new skill to doing your own hobby)

Or, you can really show your love and do something for him.
If he is gone for extended amounts of time, do his to-do list for him.
If he is home, you can still do his chores, serve him a meal in front of the TV, rub hi shoulders, etc.

Challenge
-Take a critical look at how you normally respond to him while he is in the middle of his hobby/obsession
-Decide how you should be responding to him and make a large effort to change
