Being in a relationship means you do some things you really don't want to, but go along with them because it's part of a healthy relationship. This give-and-take crosses over into what we watch together as a couple. A recent poll found that partners will spend four hours a week watching a TV program or movie only their partner enjoys. IT found that 67% would rather watch something they don’t necessarily like than get into an argument over it. In fact, 42 percent of single respondents said it would be a total “deal breaker” if a potential partner disliked their favorite show or movie. Among respondents currently living with others, two in three admit the process of deciding “what to watch” is a complete hassle and that it takes over 10 minutes to come to an agreement. It could be that there is too much to choose from as 64% feel like they waste hours scrolling through channel guides and streaming menus. The same amount confessed they get so overwhelmed they usually just give up and put on something they’ve already seen. In the spirit of Valentine's Day, two in three (65%) think their willingness to sit through a show or movie they despise is a sign of true love.
