Sorry there is no way for me to make this a short post so I apologize to anyone else who doesn't want to read about it.

No, she is not jealous of the time I spend watching vtubers. But she also doesn't care that I choose to hug my Pekora daki at night either. I understand that I'm probably luckier than many in this regard. I suppose when you have been with someone for so long, such things become trivial. But when we started dating I was just a typical anime watching weeb--vtubers did not even exist back then. We both currently work from home at opposite ends of the house, and lived together for many years, so it's totally normal to have our own interests and not spend all of our time together. I certainly feel this way. Of course when we do something together, I'm focused on her. This is very important! But if I tell her in advance that I want to watch something special at a specific time, she is kind and understanding enough to let me watch in peace. Since I watch mostly content from Japan, it usually doesn't interfere with burger prime time hours anyway.

I've always had even more niche interests and hobbies which she accepted me for and would in turn learn about through me, so vtubers are just another one of those interests. My interest in vtubers really came about through my longer time love for Japanese music, and I had never watched any traditional streamers before I watched vtubers. Had never went to twitch dot com, period. Also, while I have watched plenty of non-music related vtubers, I've never really watched GFE vtubers. I think it might be a different question if I spent 10 hours a day listening to ASMR roleplay, but I'm listening to music. It's worth mentioning that while she is interested in Japanese culture, we do not really have mutual 2d related interests. Occasionally she will watch an anime with me, or laugh at some vtuber clips, but it's the exception more than the norm. We've been to anime cons together. She thinks Gura has a pretty voice, and that watching Pikamee can be funny. I agree with her.

To me, the core of the question comes down to finding someone who is accepting of your interests. This is why I elaborated for you. If you can find someone who is truly accepting of your interests and understands you as an individual, then they have no reason to be jealous of you.

I guess this is the root of one of my issues as well. For as long as I can remember, (I'm in my thirties), I have had an addictive personality. I would become obsessed with certain things and they would become my life. For many years now, one of those addictions has been vtubers. Some addictions stay with me, and others I end up dropping suddenly cold turkey. What will be my future, I wonder? Sometimes I think about if I will still be watching cute high school anime girls in my sixties, and I truly believe the answer is yes. Anyway, I think love of music is a truly beautiful thing to have. I grew up playing piano, and have spent my entire life loving music. I'm always listening to music. I hope I can go out the same way.
