Gaming

Anybody else’s partner play video games ALL the time? It drives me insane, I’ve talked to him about it multiple times but I always feel so alone since he’s always playing the game and talking to his friends. I don’t have a problem with him gaming, I have a problem with the fact he does it from when he gets home from work to when he goes to bed at night. Also on his days off he’s on it for hours on end. Everytime I mention that it bothers me he goes “ I don’t see the problem in it “ 🥲

Currently experiencing this, he wasn’t spending any time with us and played for hours on end. I want him to have his happiness but it’s all day every day, he makes it seem like I’m nagging him when I ask for some time together. He literally coke home from work and goes straight on his game until we go to bed. He told me he would sell his Xbox so he wasn’t tempted but he has a pc and is now playing that instead🫠

I'm the gamer in my relationship but my kids r teenagers but I do stop gaming to cook food and make sure they have done homework ect but I do still have my headset on talking 2 my friends but my family is most important so they will always come first even if im in middle of a game my friends will try and keep me alive while I go off and do stuff (I'm a house gremlin) I don't like to leave my house I only go to the gym a few times a week so my partner gets that's how I socialise sometimes he gets annoyed with me but he will speak 2 me about it so I can kinda see where u are coming from xxx I'm here if any1 wants 2 talk xxx

He used to play all the time but now our boys take the Xbox over so he doesn't get a chance. However he is on his phone all day everyday when he's not working

He won't let you play? Well that Is just a bit rude but if he's a super hardcore one I guess I could see that. My hubby LOVES when I play with him even though I am ASS at 90% of the games we play 😅 we all gotta start somewhere I guess

@Kassie I think the same thing, like how does looking at the computer screen all day not give you a headache 🥴

My hubby loves to game, here's what I would do in this situation. Play with him occasionally because if he's like my hubby this might be the best way to bond with him and possibly his friends. Suggest something else yall can do together after maybe and hour or so of gaming? He shouldn't be doing it and ignoring you completely THAT is not okay and rude asf, BUT might be the best way to bond at the moment

I’m in the same boat, granted he helps most of the time after gets off work but then he hangs with me for a bit then goes back to computer and I just think doesn’t your eyes hurt from working on it for like 10 hours???? 😑

Yes… during Covid when my husband got laid off he became extremely addicted. It got to the point where all his family members were calling him out on it. We ended up staying with in laws due to the economy and it was better to ban together. I seriously was getting to my breaking point, and we had several serious conversations because he wasn’t doing anything but that. He still plays but makes sure the kids and I are all set. Also that I’m okay with it and there’s no issues or things that need attention. He needs to know that this is a serious issue that he’s not giving you the love and attention you need not helping with day to day things that need to be done. Best of luck sweetheart I know it’s difficult.

The next time he says he doesn't see the problem, tell him "the problem is-" and tell him everything you've said here. It sounds like at the end of the day, you just miss him. He's supposed to be your partner, not your be roommate.
