Hi,
My husband has been into Bonsai for almost 4 years. It started when he found an old bonsai book with postits and notes embedded from his recently deceased mother. He recalled memories of her interested in it and thought it would be a great way to keep her spirit alive. Absolutely beautiful and supportive of this for sure. When we got pregnant, he thought it would be great to grow a bonsai or 5 from sapling stage when she was born. Again, beautiful and supportive.
Now we are 4 years in, almost, and every conversation is Bonsai with him. He spends almost every minute of free time during the day on his trees. He doesnt work. I work all day and would love to have my husband be a fraction interested in me in the way he is with his trees. I come home, and he is watering his trees. Almost 80% of our conversations are around his trees or something related. He is in the process of making a bemch and has taken over the garage now making it.
Im not into Bonsai tree making, i find them gorgeous and peaceful, but its not for me.
Can you guys give me an idea.of what this hobby looks like day to day? He has OCD like tendencies and im wondering if he is becoming obsessed over this hobby.
Thanks
