No. Invite me sometimes too! I like my games as well! I'll be your player 2!
It's a problem if he doesn't invite me to play! Haha! Nah, I'm kidding. Some people prefer to play solo. I don't mind being the spectator and occasionally the 'backseat driver in games'. 😹
That’s awesome! I would have so much fun if I dated a gamer. I just know it! And girls who enjoy gaming are the best!
They’re out there! A lot more than people tend to think. It’s a matter of finding them out. Go out there and find ‘em!
Haha! I’m on PlayStation and I always team up with random played but they’re always dudes! 🤦🏻♂️
Broads do tend to gravitate more towards certain games than others. I don’t know many broads that like first person shooters for example.
Broads hahaha! I don't know why this word cracks me up! You’re so funny. Just read your last reply all over again! So funny!
Ah it’s just a habit! xD
Yes if it interfered with our relationship. Four hours is a long time of it’s done after I get home from work... itd be almost bedtime which would mean little to no time together. If it’s something he does when I’m at work it’d probably not be a problem as long as he works and pays his share of the bills. Weekend are up for grabs. Four hours on a day off isn’t that much
That's a logical well-worded answer! Well now that we're in quarantine, I've been gaming 4-6 hours a day and I'm not staying with my girlfriend, so I guess it's special circumstances, but generally not more than an hour.
Nope I'm a gamer myself so it doesn't bother me that much so is my boyfriend I like to battle him in games :)
once they are able get their responsibilities done, have a job and basically a life outside gaming then I don't mind unfortunately maybe none gaming women would put up with it well maybe some but most wouldn't :)
First off, gamer girls are the best! And yes, priorities should be set straight. And you’re right, many non gaming girls don’t put up with it, not all though.
Yes, if he is addicted and. spends all of his free time gaming. Playing a bit now and then is no big deal, bymut if he plays for hours almost daily then no. A responsible adult shouldn't even have time for that much gaming. It would mean he is neglecting many important aspects including home and his own health
Well, there should be limits for sure. And I agree, he shouldn’t ignore his relationships, career, family, personal hygiene, etc.
I actually hope he does. Right now I think it's as long as we can spend time together and get the stuff done we need to do (God/chores/work/family etc) I don't really mind.
Cool! That’s very accepting and understanding.
Thanks :) A lot of people don't get that these days it's not just a hobby but a community on lots of different platforms too.
I totally agree! I actually met a girl on RDR2 the other day and we were discussing this! She's a hardcore gamer so I guess her opinion is not that of everybody but gamer girls exist and they rock!
I play video games more than most women I know. However, my husband has a bit of a video game addiction. But unless its completely controlling their life you should try to talk to them about it.
I agree! Thankfully I haven’t reached that level yet, but I know the temptation exists, especially now with lockdown and all that’s happening.
Yeah. His job unfortunately got temporarily shut down but I still have to work so he's been playing a lot more which is understandable but I feel left out sometimes because of it
I’m sorry! Yes, these are hard times, but it will get easier. And I understand! You should tell him that
I have and he understands but I'm not gonna tell him he can't play. We play an mmo so we play with friends and I hate that I always have to stop playing because of my work schedule while everyone else has fun lol but somebody's gotta pay the bills!
I feel for you! This damn pandemic messed up our entire lives! I hope it gets easier for you.
It depends on how often. The guy I'm talking to right now games about two nights a week from 10 p. m. to 2 a. m. That's totally fine. But if it's every night, then no, I would dump him.
I game like a couple hours 4-5 days a week. But I’m planning to cut down on it!
Just as long as you don't choose gaming over your partner! I think we'd all be hypocrites if we were mad at gamers spending some hours during a couple of days a week doing what they love. I'm a workaholic, so I have no business being upset about somebody doing the same thing.
You’re absolutely right! Priorities should be set straight I guess.
That really depends. Is gaming pretty much the only hobby he has? Does he game for 2+ hours every day? Or does he just have “game days” where he games for like 5 hours at a time
It’s not the only hobby! Personally I game 2-3 hours each night but I’m also very fit and I work out everyday!
That would be pretty bad for me personally, not a reason to break up but I would definitely consider it addictive
It really depends on tbe situation. If it got to a point where it's almost excessive I wouldn't immediately break up with him but I'd have a talk with him about it. It also depends on when he is playing. If he is always playing when I'm around, I'd feel kinda left out. But when it is his hobby and he is spending a healthy amount of time for it, I totally wouldn't mind. Everyone got hobbys, so why would anyine dump you for that?
Sounds reasonable! I mean it has to be in moderation surely and you should be his priority!
Exactly
If he games to the point that’s all he does then it’s a bit concerning. You have to be able to balance your life and everything that comes with it so you’re not neglecting things in favor of gaming.
I completely agree! At this point, I’m still in control thankfully.
