i like chess a lot. it is a brainy game. but my family thinks it as a brainy drainy game. After the whole tiring day I feel refreshed and relaxed playing chess. It sharpens my mind keeping me active too. But my family thinks the other way. They don't want to strain their brain with just a chess game and drain their energy levels. everybody has his/her own choice and tastes. So, i play chess online with my computer. Ha! Ha! Have you ever faced such situation.

I'm quite the opposite. Both my father and younger brother likes to play chess so if I'm playing with one of them, I will stir up the interest of the other one and they would just be waiting eagerly to take over the person who have lost.
