Search Results: he likes video games more than me

I've been with my boyfriend for about four years, and I think we have a great relationship except for the fact that he spends too many hours playing online PC games.

We met in college, and we spent a lot of time together; we used to see a movie every couple of weeks, spend our afternoons and evenings watching Netflix, we went to an animal shelter to "look" and just "pet" some of the animals and I came home with a cat. We used to try new restaurants, go to the gym, and we used to spend some of our afternoons playing Mario Kart and Assassin's Creed. We don't do these things anymore.

For Christmas (2014), I got my boyfriend computer parts to build a PC; this was supposed to be my super awesome Christmas present to him.

I should've bought him fucking legos for Christmas.

This Christmas present resulted in him playing video games more often - which I was totally okay with. Why wouldn't I want him to play with the Christmas gift I got him? Now he plays so much that I feel neglected.

My boyfriend goes to work, comes home, sits on the couch for an hour to eat and browse Reddit, and then starts playing WoW or something else with his headset on. He probably starts playing by 6:30 or 7:00 p. m. (he comes home between 5:30 p. m. and 6 p. m.), and then he plays until about 11:30 p. m. or midnight. By that time, I'm already in bed and ready to sleep.

We always argue about how much he plays, but nothing has changed over the past year. He also says that video games is the only time he can really talk and kind of "hang out" with his friends since they all moved to different cities for work - and I understand that.

I don't think he's "addicted," but he plays a lot more than I'd like him to. I told him I've been feeling sad, lonely, and just depressed, but he doesn't care enough to make any adjustments - he justifies his game time.

So tell me, mysterious people of the internet, am I being needy? Is he being selfish? Am I in a love triangle with my boyfriend's PC?

• Your partner drinks as an outlet. Drinks about 2-3 beers before work/after work. When they go to the bar they buy another 2-3 big mugs of beers and some shots. They always drive home buzzed even after having a previous DUI. But they know how to handle their alcohol. Smokes cigarettes as well. They go to bars about 4 out of the 7 days of the week.

• Goes clubbing frequently. All their friends are single and you've only been clubbing with them once. You are all about them having fun, however they texted you they danced with a girl and to think whatever I want because I had a friend there watching him. They then added the girl on fb the next day. Tried not to let it bug me but it was weird to me.

• When not out they play video games all day. Live with their parents still at the age 25. hasn't finished school and no career plans. Just trying to pay off debts.

• They message a specific opposite sex friend on facebook a lot and they like each others posts a LOT. Every time you see their phone buzz, this persons name is always on there. I mean 3-4 days you see their name on there. You asked them who they are and they say it's their best friend however you never met this best friend. You check out the convo and they're talking about stupid things however your significant other is the one initiating all the chatter and talking all day and all night. They talk to the friend more than they talk to you.

Where do you set the boundaries of talking and entertaining the opposite sex? I'm all for having friends but if I haven't met them and you are talking all day and all night I see that as an issue. I dont talk to my opposite friends that much unless I'm asking a question or setting up a group hangout. I know my limits. My ex said this girl had a boyfriend but why is he entertaining her and sending her emojis but never to me? It's just social media and text, yeah who cares but I felt like I was on the back burner. I don't know what are your opinions on it?
