You're supposed to say: "But I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night." Interesting question, and since you quite openly admit ("admit" is the wrong word, makes you sound guilty of a crime or something, but I didn't know any other word that fit! Maybe "acknowledged" is a better choice. Anyway, no offense intended. ![]() My point is, is that really such a bad thing? ![]() Just IMHO |

I hear you....Thats exactly my situation. When I had my first child 2 years ago, you stop sweating the small stuff. Like you, I still take care of my passions (watches,cars,motorcycles,etc..) but nothing like a new baby to put it all in perspective. The most exotic waters my diver have been in lately was the $25 baby pool from Kmart.

It was just my observation that people on this site tend to be overly-attentive to an inanimate object (Rolex watch) and I just voiced my finding. Like several have said, they take good care of their Rolex but I think some here have a definite problem. It's just my observation and opinion. Who knows? I could be wrong. |

I am diagnosed OCD, when I got my sub date 6 weeks ago I analysed every millimetre of it! Found some perceived imperfections and had to fight hard not to obsess every minute of the day. I guess you could say I was in danger of ruining the experience of owning it. I now have learnt techniques that help with the obsessiveness
![]() I guess what I am saying is that as long as you don't ruin the experience of ownership through obsessing then it is cool ![]() |

I have met at least 2 people who have been seriously debilitated by OCD. It is a tough condition. But I do see your point--I have also seen people develop OCD-like symptoms about certain things at least. I am not sure if you can develop this condition by habitually becoming obsessed or not. Balance is the key to health in many ways.

Just ask our wives about watch obsessions and see what they say--and also about time spent on TRF posting????

Having OCD and also suffering from Dyslexia means that I end up paying for all my watches COD........

Well I guess if one had OCD that bad, getting to the AD would be a huge project in itself.
