Go (back) to school, focus on yourself. Discipline and focus now will pay off handsomely later -ALL across the board.
Sometimes the only way people get out of a rut (i.e.-your boyfriend) is if they are jolted. -Leave his butt, and focus on yourself, and find a slightly older, more mature man - after you work on you.
You will be beating them off with a stick!.
Everyone loves and respects someone who knows where they are going, because so few people really do.
Be one of the few, and all the rest will come together. - I promise.

You two sound like a couple of friends of mine. They have been together for almost 9 years. The guy is addicted to video games and could never hold a job and doesn't have his license.
He just got a job he stuck with for awhile last year age 25 and changed recently to a better job. He's probably still addicted but now is actually taking care of some responsibilities.
Just give him alittle time to grow up while encouraging him. If he doesn't want to spend time with you, just leave and go out with friends without even telling him....maybe that'll start to get his attention.

I had that issue before. I lost a good girl for that same reason. I don't play anymore, b/c of losing such a great girl. I say leave him and maybe he will change and stop playing those stupid time wasting games. If he don't some other guy will sweet charm you and give you the attention you crave for.
Good luck

I don't know how to stop it but girl it's not worth it!
Think about your future! Does he seem like the guy you'd want to marry? If all he does it play video games, I think NOT!
If you want to have children, do you think he'd make a good father? Think about those things and most importantly does he have a JOB?
Tell him that he has a problem and if he doesn't fix it you're dumping him and if he stays the same and doesn't do anything about it, girl you know what to do and dump him!
Good luck!

hide the power supply. really tho, for some guys it never ends. my mom's bf is 60, he still gets overly excited over the newest video games. my bf is 24, we just bought a ps3, 4 days ago. he's already beat a game because he sits up for hours playing it, seriously. like last night, he got home at 6ish, i got home at 10ish, he had been playing that whole time, we watched tv for an hour, i went to bed, and he went back to playing his video games. he usually stays up 'til 2-3am playing.

either you join the bandwagon and start playing video games or leave the relationship and move on. Have a conversation with him about it and see if you two can come up with something that will benefit both of you.

to honestl tell you its a gu think the love video games and watch sports and no matter what you do they wont pay any attention. if you feel that it is not under control hide his play staition and video game and see how he will react, and give him more time with you, if he will be fine not playing video games and spending time with you, then he is fine, if not then you might wnat to tkae more harsh methods.

Pick up a controller and join in, this is his hobby whether you can accept it or not. So either go play with him or go find a new boy toy.

the next time he is in the shower or something steal his video games and lock them in the trunk of your car. tell him you are holding them hostage until he spends a little more time with you and your relationship. Then when you are actually talking tell him that he needs to curb his gaming habit.
