He spends every free moment on it. I dont know how much more I can take. He doesnt spend anytime with me, ignores me, he wont even be affectionate to me. The only time I see him is when he comes through the door and when he goes to sleep. Its killing out relationship. I am broken hearted. I feel unappreciated not to mention unwanted. I try to tell him but he doesnt seem to care.
What do I do to get through to him? To save the relationship?

You've already told him that you're unhappy, but still he's done nothing. Pull back emotionally and dedicate your time to living your own life. If he cares he will come around. If he still prefers to be stuck in game land, then maybe he isn't worth your time.

I have no idea what WOW is - but Im presuming its a computer game or something???
Anyway have you tried talking to him about it? Let him know that whilst you're not against him playing it for an hour or so a night that you feel its gone to the stage where its become an addiction and you fear for your relationship.
Alternatively, try doing this WOW thing with him - maybe you'll enjoy it as much for a while,
But you have to get him to get a grip on reality - maybe he doesnt realise how far hes gone with this and just needs a gentle pointer in the right direction.

I too have a boyfriend that is obsessed with W.O.W. and has been for a year now. I know how you feel because I have gone thru the same thing you are going thru. Just be lucky that he is not in some bar drinking or with another girl. You just have to find things that you like to do and do them and not wait for him to join you. When he is ready or sees you doing other things, he may come around. Remember you are the only one that come make you happy.

Go stay at your parents or a friend for a week. If he doesn't notice you gone, there isn't anything worth saving anyway! An analogy I give all my friends...would you continue to beat your head against a wall or say this hurts and I'm not going to do it anymore? Why stay if all it does is frustrate you and break your heart? Do you think he is the only one out there? Never think that! If he was the right one, you would be the important part of his world! Go find the man that you ARE the important part of! OR continue to smack your head!

Never played WOW, but I know what you mean about obsessing with something.
Have a talk with him about it. Tell him how you feel sometime when you guys are out and away from it.
If it is something you enjoy, join him in it. It could be an element which you can share and use to draw closer together.
Now that I've said all that - I'm gonna get away from Yahoo Answers and go have a chat with my wife. Good luck!

My husband age 53 and two sons (23 and 17) also play a lot. I'm lucky to get any time on the computer. You should become familiar with the game. I don't play but I have learned a lot about it from dinner conversations. I encourage my "boys" to play because it is a good way for them to interact with each other, even if it is fantasy.

Omg. He likes W.O.W. too? Cool!! Oh I know. make an account on world of warcraft. meet him somewhere and ask him out. See what he says. If he says yes then go meet him and be all. HAH!!! Cheater!!! If he says no then go shut down the computer and drag him off. Thats all I can think of. Sorry. Good Luck!!

Forgive me,but what is W.O.W. There was a radio station by me that used to have that on a bumper sticker. It stood for Whip 'em Out Wednesdays. I assume this is something different?

Throw the computer and anything else out of the window!
You said you "try to tell him" ... I suggest you sit down with him and give it to him straight! It must be either you or WOW - if he even hesitates before answering, chuck him out and get a divorce!
If you started going on WOW, it would eventually send you both mad ...

My bf is always playing computer games too. He "lives" upstairs and I "live" downstairs in our home. Before we moved in together it aggravated me but now I don't mind because at least I know where he is. We "visit" each other from time to time to give each other a hug or discuss something. But I'm free to watch what I want to on tv and play on my own computer. It doesn't bother me.
