Who else feels like their wife/husband or bf/gf is on the verge of walking out for looking at your phone, laptop, or tablet all the time?

I have started to fear that I might wake up one morning and my phone will be missing or destroyed.
I'm leaving on a cruise Saturday, I won't have phone service - not sure what I'm going to do?!?!? Very bad timing in regards to the coaching search. The wife had threatened to throw me off the boat if I do any searching for UT info while on the trip...
So, should I still take her?

I've tried staying on here every minute I'm not at work and my wife is still here!!!
Any other suggestions that might work?

Guess my wife is awesome she hasn't complained yet, but maybe that's bc the kitchen is clean and dishes are done before she gets home and an occasional load of laundry.

Haven't done this cruise yet, but leaving out of charleston sc...doing the Bahamas. We try to do a cruise every 1.5 - 2 years, did one for our honeymoon and just never stopped.
I have mentioned possibly paying to get service, yea...that won't fly, ha. She said "it's a vacation away from UT, with me...your wife".

Yep, that's the one...we have done the eastern and western Caribbean and was fortunate enough to do a Hawaii cruise...but haven't done the Bahamas yet, looking forward to seeing what it's like

Hell my wife is always on Facebook so she doesn't notice until we eat dinner and I'm on the checkerboard at the table.

Get her good and drunk and you can check the board after she passes out.

The combination of this screen name and this post just made my day. This is the kind of hilarious thing that makes me wade through all the other nonsense.
