When my partner gets home from work...the first thing he go to when in come into the front door is his computer. He spends up to 6 hrs a day, 7days a week =42hours....The only time I see him is when I'm making dinner and when we go to bed. I dont mind him playing games on computer but I feel leftout. If you wondering how I got time doing this...I told him I want to check me emails.....so what you folks think?

Its an addiction i know it nearly cost me my marriage. Talk him about it. I learned my lesson the hard way.
Thankfully i saw sense before it was to late.

Men just love toys and gadgets! Don't forget that they never really do grow up! On a deeper level, I think it's important for men to have their own space and going on a computer for hours on end just gets the message accross that this is their time to themselves and they don't want to be disturbed. I think that a little bit of this is allowed but it's not fair when they do it for hours on end and you're doing the relentless household stuff AND it's taking time away from being with you! You need to have a serious chat with him. Maybe he's got an addiction that you could support him to get over!

coz that's all they are interested in.....i had the same problem with my ex...that's why he's my ex...unplug the bugger and tell your man that you live there too...or has he forgotten...tell him that there's more important things happening other than the poxy computer, make him stay off it at least twice a week so you both can have that quality time together...if not get your glad rags on and go out clubbing with the girls...if he's stuck on the PC all day he may not even notice you've gone

OMG!!! you are me...i am you....this EXACT same thing happens to me. My husband plays Counter Strike and goes to all different kind of web-sites like u-tube and others where you watch movies or t.v. shows.... recently, we started keeping up with a show called Dexter, and we also watch things like nip/tuck and Adult Swim and Comedy Central and so on, but recently, when i tell him its on and he needs to come in the living room to watch it, he'll say..."I'll just download it tomorrow and watch it." WHAT IS THEIR PROBLEMS?? Its like they cant get enough!!! Now dont get me wrong...i love my husband with my whole heart...and we DONT need marriage counseling (i asked a question similar to yours a couple of weeks ago and i got so many rude remarks about how we didn't really have a relationship and we needed counseling and so on..) p.s. my husband is sleeping...that's how i am on here right now. i know exactly how you feel. if you would like, e-mail me and we can talk about how our men are crazy for computers!! btownsbabyblueangel@yahoo.com

Because for us men, computer games is one of the best past time for us to relax (maybe also for me, but not all men) and computer games easily adapt with man's nature.

Try getting him a gaming console, like ps2 or x box or something, and get games that you can play Together. My boyfriend is completely into his computer and his x box 360, but he always finds games that we can play together so i don't feel left out. Before we played together i used to feel left out too.

well my husband does the same and i know he enjoys watching the scoreboards and enjoys adding comments about baseball. when we fall asleep and as usual i sleep in the other room, i know he is still in the computer cause i can hear the keyboard clicking as he types...he stays up to check out the naked women on the web and i do believe he trys to hook up with someone-on the dating web, he uses his visa card to pay to see naked horney women than he jacks off. i say you check what his been viewing, i did and that's how i found out and lucky me, i guesed his pass word. when he puts a stop to the log-in site and the web asks for the pass word, i than know he is hiding something. but i maybe wrong about your buddy,find out first than attack him with what are you on the computer soo much?! i'm on the computer 24-7 myself, i'm not interested in sex webs, but i do enjoy writing to people like i am now, & i enjoy looking for things for sale, even though i won't buy, i like to explore into the computer and spy on my husbands interests!!

All men are like that - I have three boys and we currently have 4 computers - they are all glued to them. I didn't buy any of them by the way!

because ..in his own house he is not the lord and master he tells all his friends at work he is.you know every nook and granny in the whole house you wash his clothes properly tell him what to wear and when to wear it .he cant cook,clean or anything else unless you are supervising him to do it properly.The only time he is in control is when your in bed and when hes on the computer..He gets to sit on top,nothing moves unless he desires it to.with the touch of a mere finger his every wish is obeyed.and when hes had enough he can shut it down..how to fix this ?find a game on the net..beat the top score..challenge him,then kick his butt at it.when you have succeeded he will stop with the computer and youll get him back in bed and properly work harder ,do more over time..anything but get back on the computer for fear of getting beaten by you again...good luck

It's "Your plastic pal, who's fun to be with!"
...especially when single :(
This proves your point:
What do you get if you multiply 6 x 9?
