My man doesn't give a toss about football. But I love it. So for me, it's hard when he doesn't get why I wanna sing the songs, watch the games, memorize the stats, generally rant about the Prem league.. But he cannot change that in me. I am a Red Devil, end of.
So it's not always the guy who drives the better half bonkers with his football craze.
To Danielepew; your answer was good - except for that last bit. Arsenal is soooooooo not the best of the best.
GLORY, GLORY MAN UNITED.....

Unfortunately, you can't stop your guy from supporting a football team he loves.
Not all guys are crazy about football. I have been out with two guys in the past two years who either didn't watch football at all or hated it!! Which would you prefer? In a way, it's better he shares your interest of football. But sometimes there's bound to be rivalry if you don't support the same team. I'm sure he still loves you more than his team though!

 This is hard to explain. Football is not just a pastime for us. Just for you to compare, I once heard about one guy who managed to marry wearing the colors of his beloved team. His team, by the way, has black and yellow.
If you're a man, you will want your son to be a good football player. You will take him with you and the first jersey he will wear, goddammit, will be that of your beloved team. You will teach him how to play the game, and how to take it like a man in the field. This is not just a pastime.
When a friend of mine had his first son, we had the intention that his first set of clothing would be an orange shirt and a black short. That's the Netherlands, if you need to know. Well, his mother found out and the poor little thing had to leave the hospital in a boring, plain light blue outfit. Booo!
And then there are some colors you need to avoid all the time. Only if I can't avoid it will you see me wearing all white. That's the color of one team, based in Spain, whose only fate should be always to lose... It doesn't matter who plays against that team: I know who I will side with already.
I'm sure your partner didn't love his team more than he loved you, but I'm sure he DOES love his team.
I don't find it easy to explain. I hope that my words will help you, anyways.
Finally, truer words than the following will never be spoken. You and your ex don't have a clue. Everybody knows Arsenal is the best of the best.
