You have a problem with internet gaming seems to me you need to address normal relationship issues not who is playing what. And he gets annoyed when he cannot play this guy has a dummy as well then ? Ask him what he really sees as important in his life and if he chooses the game fuck him off what a waster.<br><b>References : </b><br> Long term relationship a year umm ok I think not that is nothing.

It doesn't worry me. He would be utterly bored and then annoying me so its better he stays out of my way so I can muck about on my laptop in peace. You need to find something to occupy you and not rely on his company all the time. Also, you should be able to say that you want time just the two of you doing something together. If he agrees to this, then you can both be happy!<br><b>References : </b><br> My husband plays his xbox every night. It doesn’t worry me.

Right next time he puts it on say in a nice warm voice "Are you playing Everquest again dear?" to which he will reply aagghh (which means yes) You then reply "okay i'm going out to the pub then" See if this works???<br><b>References : </b><br> You can’t expect him to stop completely, us blokes get a real buzz from gaming, but i know where your coming from though.

If you hate gaming so much, and he loves it so much it's been a big part of his life, I wonder why you're together. Gaming is an annoying bf habit, but it isn't, say, crack. It won't kill him or maim him or render him impotent. There are safe, reasonable levels of gaming, and it's a hobby lots of people enjoy. Geek people, but, still, people. Don't forbid him or monitor him. That's classic bad gf behavior and it often travels along with nagging, shrieking, and passive aggression. You cannot successfully change people who do not want to be changed. Trust me. I have the tee shirt. Even if he's wrong about things, being witchy makes you wrong too. Instead, work on developing interests you can both share. Look into playing a game of your own or getting your own non-geek hobby while he's online, so you're not tapping your toe and whining pay attention to meee. It's healthy for couples to have some separate interests. Make specific plans to ensure you do spend time together. On Tuesdays, he sits at his comuter until three am clacking away while you play canasta or knit sweaters for orphans or watch cable porn or whatever. On Wednesdays you meet for a bike ride after work and have drinks after--with no computer in sight. Or whatever. It's hard to tell, just with one perspective, what your relationship is really like, but it sounds like you could both stand to make some changes in the way you approach things. Good luck.<br><b>References : </b><br> Um. If you hate gaming so much, and he loves it so much it’s been a big part of his life, I wonder why you’re together.

You need to let him have his own means of entertainment and escape. I don't think it's unreasonable for you to want to have some limits to the amount of time he spends playing them but, to suggest that he has to completely stop playing muds is not considerate of his desires and feelings. If this is really the only issue in your relationship you should feel blessed. Try to be a bit more compromising about setting a reasonable amount of time for him to have in his life to do with what he wants whether you think it's worthwhile or not. Addiction (i'm not sure that's real tho) to video games is inconvenient not life threatening.
