My boyfriend is addicted to the stupid computer game, world of warcraft. he plays it all the time. he does hang out with me, yes, but whenever i go over there, he inevitably ends up starting to play the game. i usually end up falling asleep to the sounds of him playing it. and he says he doesnt play it that much! its just annoying. while yes, he does still take some time to be with me, whenever we are at his apt he is playing that game. whenever im not with him, at any given time ill ask him what hes doing, and of course its WoW. is there anything wrong with this picture? isnt it bad when a couple starts to fight, over a stupid GAME!?!? am i just being a B****? does anyone else out there have this problem...

i have watched him play the game...
i dont find that sort of thing interesting, not at all. i even tried to play it, i lasted about 5 minutes before i got bored. ive never been into video games...
so playing it with him is out of the question.

and "Hun", i've spent many a hour watching him and his friend play Halo, and it was anything but amusing, not after the first hour of it.

If he's that bored with you that he has to play while you're there, that's a problem. But if he's playing when he's not with you, there's no issue there. Time together should be time together, not you in one room and him in another.
I'm in a reverse relationship; I'm the WoW player and my boyfriend is not. When we're together, I don't play. (Unless he wants to watch football on my television, in which case I am free to play WoW - a nice compromise for me!)
Relationships are about compromise. Have you tried playing the game with him? You might like it. If not, ask him to be with you, not the game, when you're together - and make sure he has time to play without you.

i think of that it is one clarification why long-distance relationships do no longer artwork out nicely. If it weren't long-distance, then you adult adult males ought to verify one yet another -and- he would have his WOW time. yet as this is, the internet time he has is divided between chatting with you and different events, and that i think of this is stressful to do. i'm no longer partial to adult adult males enjoying WOW as a results of fact I actual have experienced how adult adult males can substitute into addicted and placed that over each and every little thing else, consisting of their girlfriends. in spite of the undeniable fact that, i think of that for the duration of your case, you're being style of unreasonable and controlling. It appears like the compromise made became greater beneficial than honest, and there would desire to be some leeway given for specific circumstances (like while he spends time with acquaintances). human beings connect with acquaintances on diverse events, and he and his buddy take place to connect on WOW. How could you sense if your boyfriend dictated to you the way you will desire to be spending it slow along with your acquaintances? as nicely, what if he had completed something else (like pass to the excitement park or to a stay overall performance) and nevertheless somewhat talked to you that day...could it incredibly make a distinction? I propose which you spot if the time spent together with his buddy reverts him back to a WOW addict long-term. if so, then you will desire to to enable this one pass. If no longer, then you would desire to contemplate the thought he would have his very own hobbies (i'm specific you have yours), and that's ok. the bigger question is whether or no longer or no longer the two of you're mentally able to be for the duration of this long-distance relationship long-term. If no longer, then stressful judgements would desire to be made.

Aw..i feel you, my boyfriend loves to play Halo and other video games when I go by him. I try to brush it off in general, I'm hoping he grows out of it eventually...If it really honestly gets to you though- then end it, but I mean it really does piss you off. It's still tolerable for me because he takes tons of breaks while playing to fool around with me.

most girls have a problem with video games. I'm a total gamer so my boyfriend and I don't fight about that. I do, however, get annoyed at his obsession with youtube.com I'm so sick of stupid videos. lol enough is enough!
