Is Your Spouse Cheating? Probably.


By watching TV without you.  LOL.  No really.  It’s a thing.

Especially with the way more couples and families are watching TV.  You have a favorite show you are ‘bingeing,’ and one night you notice that your partner isn’t reacting to a shocking twist, instead they are playing Angry Birds on their phone.

That’s because they cheated and watched ahead!

We’ve all had the urge.  You know that in the next episode the two leads are finally going to confess their love, or the handsome warrior may come back to life – so you just CAN’T wait!

Well now, Cornetto, a British ice cream company, is offering a solution (I am pretty sure it’s just great viral marketing).  It’s “Commitment Rings.”  They require both parties to be together before their streaming service will let them watch certain shows.  The video below explains the whole thing, and with fantastic melodrama.

Is this an idea whose time has come?  -Kate
