    Absolutely. I don't see it as a bad thing. My girlfriend is away at college most of the time and we fully expect each other to be doing stuff to progress in life. So I am frequently studying while chatting with her online.

    I don't see it as a problem.

    I routinely do other things when chatting with people (get your frickin' mind out of the gutter). If it's an in person or phone conversation it holds my interest. Typing something and then waiting on their response... not so much. It would be the equivalent of her looking at facebook or her email, but more beneficial to you.

    My wife thinks that it's weird that I even study for things that I'll probably not get a raise from.

    But then again, so still doesn't understand really what I do (we've only been together for 7 years).

    While I will not dispute the use of weird, I might say that sexting is at least appropriate if you consider an alternate meaning of CBT. I have a few friends who are into some *hem* odd things and once I said I was watching a CBT and they nearly fell on the floor laughing.

    What? Only? 7? Only?

    GF doesn't really ask or probably care what I'm doing while chatting or texting with her. If I'm not with her then I'll be chatting or texting with her and that means I'm probably at work either working or on break.

    My wife would complain when she could tell I was playing Wow while talking to her on the phone. She would talk and I would go "uh huh uh huh".

    I dunno, Jeremy Cioara's voice is kinda sexy.
