Marriage Makeover: "TV is ruining our love life!"
It was only a year ago that Chelise and Rodney Firmin exchanged vows. But rather than exploring new experiences and interests as newlyweds, these two hardworking professionals in Chicago more often than not spend their limited couple time at home, parked in front of the TV. Why? "Rodney would rather watch TV," says Chelise, 29, an optometrist. "From the moment he gets home from work, the TV is on ‑- even while he's paying bills, looking at emails or during dinner. We can't do the things we love because he's always watching TV."
