You had to give a little SEXY TIME right?

Got to say that wasder is right...She is more important than a game...play when she´s asleep;)

Women will always moan it's in their nature you'll have to live it 'cos they can't help it.

Picture please

i get that shit too from my girlfriend. makes me mental sometimes. there's got to be some sort of a compromise you can come to.

and i'm sure you all know this, but women are out of their minds to begin with.

give her money, gifts and sex frecuently and she will not bother u.

Now for my serious reply ...
My wife does not like my gaming habit ... honestly I play a little too much (releative to responsibilities). But I don't want to be hardon who does nothign but yardwork and around the house projects.

Forget about the fucking game dude, your future marriage is 100x more important. If you love her, you will throw BF2 out of your mind easily.

You could say the same for her, like she watchs the soaps everynight from 7-9:30pm, I once explained to someone in these terms. You go home turn on the TV from 6pm you watch maybe the news, some soaps (UK based like Eastenders/Corrie etc) then theres the 9pm shows (CSI etc) and maybe a few other bit thats nearly 1130pm. That could be 5 nights a week, I go home go online talk to my mates from UK/USA/IRL yea I play on and off untill 11pm maybe 3 differant games. Same thing just differant form of self-entertainment.

So in short what I would say is tell her that you like gaming as much as she likes shopping (whatever it is she likes).

Is there a form of shame for us people who play online for whatever amount of time we do ? Or is it that online gaming has got a bad rep from people who do have problems i.e 16hrs a day 7 days a week pissing in to 2ltr coke bottles so they wouldnt have to leave the desk ??

IMO its my down time, some folk watch TV, some go to the pub every night I chose to play a game with 63 other people at any given time.

now there's some ammo that is pretty significant. this guy has the right argument.

i'm the same way, i could give a rats ass about tv, i need to be active playing a game, not watching the usual shit on tv.


also, keep in mind that, to a degree, it's a part of who you are, and she should come to terms with it. girls tend to focus on one bad thing versus all the good things.

ok yes i agree gaming is an addiction and a very good one if i might add.. now my story here is i had a woman of 13 yrs she gamed with me had every game i had up til SF but had bf2, she hopped on teamspeak with us and everything it was great, then she like snapped quit gaming with me but yet started playing toontown,pogo and doin chat rooms etc. which was cool she did her thing and i did mine, We have 4 kids and we had game systems for them and even computers, I currently have 4 computers in my house. I never really played each night til after my kids were in bed, always asked if there was something she wanted to watch on DVR, if she said no then i gamed or even just bs'd with the fellas. I treated ts like my other phoneline but she did not see it that way and bitched of course. So i started giving out my number to the guys i gamed with, for tech help if need be and shit. Well that didn't help either, hell i did all household chores including bathing all the kids for years so gaming was my escape. Well she never seen it that way, i damn near kissed her ass, still wasn't good enough so she finally gave up and moved out!!! now i have all the free time i want to game with, get my kids alot and have no bitching from her, almost like heaven on earth!!!

Now do i regret losing her, i would have to say yes, would i change my gaming habits if it would get her back, maybe, but a comprimise would have to be made. Is she willing to give it a shot, NOPE!!  O'well plenty of fish in the sea and on the battlefield!!

Moral to the story i am not sure as a gamer you can please your woman unless she games too right along with you just as much as you do. So if thats the case and you do love her, toss the game, gamers will always live on but a good woman is hard to find!!

So try and get her, her own rig, encourage her to play and divide your time somehow.  Sorry to type all that sob story but you asked ..lol.. and GOOD LUCK!!   =DHG= For life!!

Dump her, play games. Watch porn. Happy.

This post is resounding music to my ears. My wife tells her friends that she is a video game widow. I think what it really comes down to for us is the fact that we both have very different expectations about what amount of time is enough. I know that after I have finished going around town all day and/ or doing various chores around the house and in the yard I want to relax and shoot people (In game). However, the wife seems to think that as soon as all the running around and chores are done I am supposed to sit down and watch some Entertainment television with her and learn all about the stupidity that is Hollywood.

Needless to say we have pretty heated arguments over time 'well' spent.

If BF2 wasn't enough for her to be in competition about she also has to content with WoW, 2142, and DoW. When i say competition I mean that in woman terms. She is not in competition with those things at all. And i am not going to be crass and say that she lost that fight along time ago, but, at the same time, I have been playing alot longer than I have been dating, much less knowing her. However, that is not a good argument.

Basically, there is a compromise of time:woman ratio that is impossible to figure out and when you think you have it, she will tell you otherwise. Most times I think my wife just likes to complain for the sake of complaining and no amount of time you spend with her or things you do for her will remedy that. Good luck bud, and know that you are not alone!
