...I can see what a lot of people are saying. But from where I stand, if your SO doesn't understand that you have a hobby that you really enjoy and it involves spending a few hours with friends every week or so (weekends or not), they should be happy for you...not annoyed. Just like if your SO decided to take up pottery and it was held every Sunday for 4 hours. I'd look at it as a time to spend alone with my daughter; watch her play, teach her to read/write/draw, play "hide-and-go-scare" (my daughter is gonna be a horror-flick chick I'm sure of it!), etc...and not look at it as "not spending time with my SO". Life is FAR to short to go around being a grumpypuss, and life is FAR too long to worry about not spending every waking weekend minute with your SO.

Of course, YMMV, but that's my experience. :)

Actually, in my case at least, its not my wife that tells me I can't play on weekends. It's my choice not to do so. We have soooo much going on during the weekend (much like Umbran says) that we can't do during the weeknights. My gaming group are not the only people I hang with in my life. I have lots of non-gamimg friends. (They just don't know what they're missing.:p) It works for me. Do I miss playing marathon sessions every weekend? Sometimes. But the time I spend with my wife is well worth the trade off.
