Looking for honest opinions.
My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years. About 3 months ago, he came up with this idea about building a website catering to the vampire craze of twilight, true blood, and vampire diaries. For those of you not familiar with all this vampire stuff- basically this "vampire craze" is very popular among teenage girls and even adults. People are obsessed with Robert Pattinson, etc. HUGE FAN BASE
So he started a fan page on facebook to build momentum for his website, so when the site actually launches, he will have a fan page on facebook to let the people know what is going on with the site and to encourage the fans to visit the site. He spends a lot of his time building up the fan page and inter-acting with the fans.
His website will be all about vampire news, such as press releases on twilight, hollywood gossip on Robert Pattinson, updates on True Blood, etc.
On his web page he will be selling things to make a profit, such as wrist bands, t-shirts, some jewelry, etc On is facebook fanpage he will post updates about this celebrity or this twilight event and naturally people will comment and "like" the post.
I feel as though he cares more about a facebook comment and collecting fans to his fan page more than anything else.
Am I jealous of all the attention is paying to these strangers online? I mean if he's not on the laptop, then he's on his phone counting the number of fans he has.
We've talked about it before and I've expressed my concern for the amount of time he spends on the computer, so he cut that out by about 50% but now he's on his phone looking at it more.
I understand he wants his website to be successful and he wants to market it as much as possible, but I feel so jealous sometimes because these random strangers that post a comment or like a status get all of his attention.
I hate feeling that way and I feel as if I'm being silly because I should not be getting jealous of people commenting on his post. Recently, thats all he talks about. The success of his website and how much money he will be making and this and that. His obsession with money and the website are bothering me and I don't know why. I don't have the same desire for money as he does, so I feel like we have different priorities
I'm jealous of how much he talks about money and the website, and everything else. Am I wrong? Am I being an asshole?
