Other – She used to go with me to conventions and would attend some stuff at Hobby U. Once I was playing in a tournament and she sat at the table behind me painting some figures. I had two people come up to me and say, "I hate you." because of it. When our kid was really little, she stopped coming. Now she works weekends, so cannot come. Since there is no option for used to come, I have to choose other.

Other – Like Jeff my wife has attended shows in the past, but doesn't anymore because of debilitating migraines….

She came to one. She has no interest in my gaming.

She does support my gaming, weekly I get "play nice with the other children".

When I was married, she would get pissed when I went. Take it from there.

There's no option for "She used to go when our son was younger, but now he's grown up she no longer feels the need to go"
