Video Games or Your GF? What Means More To You?

Girlfriend....Game are great,but come on...

and if he is choosing WOW over you,there is a HUGE problem there.

it depends on when you ask me.

seriously, though, she is way more important than any game... but thankfully she doesn't make me choose, and understands when i want to spend an evening thwarting evil (or aiding it, whichever the case may be).

Well, it sounds like you are pretty reasonable. It seems like youre not asking him to drop the hobby, just asking him to spend more time.

Do you guys live together? Then I think he should limit his video game time to after dinner or something. You guys get home from work or whatever, spend a few hours together, go get some food, then maybe for a couple hours before bedtime he can play WoW or something.

If you guys dont live together, then ya I think he should not be playing games period. Its rude, even if your guest is not your girlfriend. If my friend came over I certainly wouldnt ignore him or her and play games, I'd be a good host and talk and entertain them.

Do you enjoy video games? There is a compromise; maybe you can convince him to drop WoW and get a 360 so you two can play together. My friend just got his gf a 360 (with a pink controller, awww how cute!) and they play Halo 3 and stuff together.

Also, if your boyfriend plays more than four hours a day, he needs to cut back regardless of anything.

I read all the pages of this topic and this is what I think:

You seem like a nice girl that allows your bf to play wow online while your sitting next to him (thats nice since most gfs wouldnt even accept that) besides that you said you even try playing it with him however he still goes raiding. I mean seriously, its not your fault he doesnt like you, from what ive read in here you seem like a nice person however your bf is still just playing instead of adjusting even the littlest thing. I would say you have a serious discussion with him about it, tell him what you think about wow, how you think it ruins your relationship and how he thinks he can change. If all this ends up negative im affraid you're better off alone.

And the q: id answer gf, wouldnt spend a minute on a console or pc if shes here , unless she wants to play (sometimes a gf want to try and play on a 360 for example:P, that I dont mind)

Video games are way more important. I don't have a girl friend right now, but when i was with my ex, i started to play runescape and i loved that game way more then talking to her or doing anything with her. Girls aren't that important to me, i'm just not the realtionship kind of guy. I love my video games though, video games to me are like my reality. Runescape was like a second life to me, and no that is not a sad thing :)joshrocks2245

Sorry , but thats actually pretty sad in my eyes.

ya, very sad.

youre ignoring your biological purpose (relationship and procreation)...dont get me wrong I love games but I would efinately take a gf over WoW lol

This thread cracks me up with the responses, but I am sorry you are going through this.

Ironically enough, I think I play more videogames than the bf.

I i had a GF, i wouldn't choose. I'd play games and be with my GF at different times. I' never play games with her by my side, unless she liked video games as well.

But as i don't, i actually prefer playing games rather than searching for one.

Just wondering if my relationship is normal or not and wondering about others...
My boyfriend would rather be playing WoW and raiding then be with me..
He comes home goes on Vent and then puts on headphones while he's right next to me..
So really my relationship is going nowhere (but I don't want to leave him.. -_-")

So, what really is more important to some of you
Your video games or Your GF/BF?

Same >_>

It's very depressing to hear stories like this where some guy has a GF and kinda treats her like ****, when there are tons of guys out there who would pour their heart out to a girl that would love them...

Women come and go. Pixels are forever. :oops: Plus there's always pr0n.CIoud_S

Oh man! Can't forget about teh pr0n!

Video games comes first for me, then my friends, after that maybe a girl.Seriously, girlfriends are overrated.Video games dont give you trouble.(unless you suck)And they're pretty much my passion, right after art.

I mean a night out with a girl is alright then some boom boom at my place afterwords, but as soon as thats over its back to games and friends.Girls come and go.

Video games. Duh. I don't have a girlfriend. :PMissRiotmaker

i would def. pick the g/f....you should really talk to him about it

Don't have a girlfriend atm, and I gave up video games for Lent, but I'll still go with video games as more important

I'm tempted to ask you guys saying girlfriend over games what you would do if your girlfriend made you miserable but you just couldn't dump her? Would you pick games or her then?

Me? I have more than enough time for both. And that's just the way I like it.

Well last time I checked I cant put a certain "organ" inside of my console so GF wins out by a huge margin :wink:Gh0st_Of_0nyx

Just give it about 3 years... I'm sure by then we'll be seeing something like a "Nintengina" for all those gamers that don't have GFs ;)

My girlfriend. No doubt.

Video games. Duh. I don't have a girlfriend. :PMissRiotmaker
