Guys do that. They lose track of time... especially if they're competitive. But it's not so much about the games they're playing... sometimes it's poker. Sometimes it's pool. It's all just a way for them to bond... and have fun. Someone else suggested you should go with him. I agree. Try it once. They're usually pretty funny when they get into the games. But don't bring an attitude with you! Go with an open mind. In fact, I'd suggest you bring snacks, pizza, and/or beer. It's sort of a gesture to let your guy know that you're willing to understand the time he's spending away from you. Once you've tried it, then you can make an informed decision about what sort of guidelines may be needed around games with the guys. Maybe you need to spend time with the girls, too. What this boils down to - trust. Do you trust him when he's away from you? If the answer is no, then maybe this question is a bit deeper than "is it okay to play playstation with the guys every once in a while until 3 in the morning" and you may want to look into that instead.

It doesn't matter whether it's "normal" or not. He's your boyfriend. This is how he behaves. What are you going to do about it?
If you don't want a 31-year-old boyfriend who stays out with his friends until 3 or 4 in the morning playing PlayStation, then tell him "We're done!", break up with him, and get a boyfriend who doesn't behave like this.
Forget about trying to change him. You can't change someone else's behavior. You can only change your own behavior.
Sorry, and good luck.

If he does this once in a while it's strange behavior but not really bad, but if he does it a lot then it's addictive. If he's out at night more often then not playing "playstation" or whatever he's really doing, I don't know why you would stay with a guy like that.

It is normal. Any unmarried man has the right to go where he wants and do what he wants.If you are thinking of getting married to him. Keep in mind that this behavior will continue when he is married also. Every man has his own level of maturity and responsibility. Marriage won't change that.I know men in their 60's that still watch football in bars while their family is at home on holidays.Either get used to it now or find someone who will be there for you when you want him to be. Good Luck

Is he really playing with a Playstation? Are does he have you sidewacked? If he is truly playing with a playstation till the wee hours of the morning; my guess is you do not have a relationship, he is still childish and I personally would drop him like a hot potato.

Normal...No. But unfortunatly, my husband used to do the same thing. I finally convinced him to bring them to our house and I'd make snacks and stuff. It took him a couple years, but he finally doesn't do that anymore. By the way, my husbnad is now 32 and is hooked to World of Warcraft (a computer game) and it's worse!!! Beware!!! If you hear him talking about it or see him look at it in the store, scare him away from it quickly. My husband can go on the computer at 6 PM and I'll wake up at 7 AM....and he'll still be there!!!!!!!

are you sure that he's playing playstation? my bf is 28 and he plays at home until 2-3in the morning. but, im fine with it because he's with me. maybe he's doing something else if he insists on leaving to play playstation. its normal for guys to do that sort of thing but, make sure you know what he's doing. sounds kind of suspisious if he does it more than a couple times a week

It's not as abnormal as you'd think. Guys your bf's age are the key demographic for video games. I have a lot of guy friends who are way into video games and, let's face it, he could be out doing worse things until 4am.
If you're feeling neglected because he's spending too much time with his boys, that's another story. Talk to him about it.
Very few guys would turn down a chance at more time in bed with you in order to save the universe, you know?

sounds like he hasn't grown up yet and accepted the fact that he's in a relationship, it's easy to do if there is poor communication between both of you and you act like it's OK, maybe there is a deeper meaning to staying out, maybe he doesn't want to be at home with you and this is his way of dealing with it. maybe not....
The better question is do you mind? if your happy that he's out with his friends then it's all good, if your not happy but truly care for him then sit down and have a heart to heart talk with him, I can grantee he will not be good at talking and may even get defensive so be kind and sincere and leave the anger elsewhere

It is normal, you do come first in his life. Everyone needs an escape from bf/gf relationship, playstation with a buddy is fun and keeps you being a good boy.
