Can sitting in the car be considered a hobby?

I just don't get it. What's so enjoyable about sitting in the car for a long time? Hubby loves to do that. Before coming into the house when he comes home from work... After dinner. After breakfast on his day off. To me it seems like it's a hobby of his. Sure he doesn't just sit there doing nothing. He listens to the radio or is on social media on his phone. But still... Why in the car? He can do the same thing in the house.

He might be the kind of guy who, when he says he likes alone time, he really means alone time, with absolutely no one else in the same space.

@lovebuglena I thought being in the car by himself was what alone time was. Who knows, maybe he really likes the feel of being in a car.

@AmbiePam I'd have preferred him being next to me on the couch instead of in his car.

I don't remember if he ever brought up needing alone time to me.

I am not sure. Maybe some people are relaxed if they are sitting in car for a long time.

One time we were looking for parking and couldn't find any. Then saw a guy in the car and double parked so we can take his spot. He was just sitting there talking on the phone, not moving anywhere. After a while we gave up and left to look for another spot.

He could be like my husband. He wants that quiet time and space, and doesn't feel he can get it in the house.

Maybe. There is no office room or man cave in our house.

Its his little private spot I guess Lena. At least you know where he is and he is safe. It is a hobby I believe and it is funny too.

I'd have preferred if his private spot was in the house. Maybe the bathroom lol.

Maybe it's so you won't be able to give him "honeydew" tasks!

Every time you have brought this up I have thought this to be a bit strange. But to each his or her own, as I always say. I have no idea what is so appealing about sitting in a car to do anything. I'd be bored out of my mind. lol

@porwest I think everyone has or does something that someone may consider weird.

@lovebuglena Most definitely. And some people are just completely weird and have a very long list.

@lovebuglena I've no idea. I personally don't get it, but I am sure I have some things I do others would consider weird.

Maybe that's just what he likes to do and there isn't another reason for him to do it? IDK... You could just ask him why he sits in the car all the time...

@lovebuglena I sit and read a lot but never in my car unless I'm waiting for an appointment and don't want to go inside whatever business my appointment is at.

I have a feeling he won't answer the question. But apparently he is not the only one who likes to do this.

I guess, for whatever reason, he likes the privacy. I don't really get it but maybe it's a 'man' thing.

Perhaps it is a man thing. But why the need for privacy?

Does he smoke out there? Maybe that's why he does it. Have a good week.

He vapes. But he can do that in the house. And he does do it sometimes, even though I don't like it.
