My wife and I have been married for one month now. When we got married neither one of had a t.v. When we got married we got one and since then our relationship has went downhill really fast. I have voiced my opinions but she won't listen to me.. Recently I asked her to at least move it to another room but she chose the t.v. over me. I just gave her an ultimatum either it goes or I go I told her that I won't fight a inatamite machine for her attention. Was I right in doing this please help me someone!!!

I think you are right to feel the way you feel, not wanting to fight over an object; however, I wouldn't give up so quickly and especially not over something so trivial. You will find that through out the course of your marriage that much greater things will have to be overcome. Try asking her out on a date. I know this sounds funny, but you acheive two things here. You get her away from the house (TV) and you go out and have fun together. This would be the first step that I would take. During this "date" maybe you shouldn't brig anything up about the TV problem and just have fun and then take it from there.
