Aw, I feel for you. I'm not but my best friend is. She's a fairly newlywed and it's like a running joke among our friends 'cause she can hardly get her hubby to come to bed with her 'cause he'd rather be playing WOW. After a year or so she decided if you can't beat 'em, join 'em and started playing too so now they sit in their seperate offices and play WOW together
lol.
I'm here to join the group!!! My hubby is so bad today the guys in WOW were asking him if he has a cousin in another country that plays while he sleeps because his level is so high ROFL!! We should make a WOW widow cake rofl

DH is obsessed with WoW. He even owns a computer game/LAN shop so plays for hours on end while he's working then comes home and plays more. Feel sorry for the newlywed that can barely get her DH to come to bed with her instead of playing--I know how that feels. However, like the others of you I can't play because it makes me feel sick and not only that it seems so useless. At least most of my hobbies are somewhat useful--scrapbooking, sewing, baking. Anyway, I totally resent the whole WoW thing to the point of saying I don't want a computer at home anymore but then what would I do without CC? ![]()
I am sick to death of that d@$# game!! ![]()
My Dh plays that thing non stop for hours. I was the stupid one that bought him the upgrade for his birthday. We have had many discussions about him not playing and guess what? He's playing right now. I give up. We at least have an arrangement that he can't play it until the kids go to bed. The bad part is he stays up really late and then doesn't want to get up in the morning to go to work. I told him he needs to go to video games anonymous. He thinks I'm joking, but I'm serious. He asked for a laptop and a wireless router for Christmas so he could play his game and I could still get on the computer. I won't play the game for 1. I'm not interested in those kinds of games and 2. just watching it gives me motion sickness. At least I know I'm not the only one who's going through this.
Not WoW, but EQ helped ruin my first marriage. Now we're both happy - me with a new fiance who does NOT play any MMORPGs, and the ex with his games.
What is it with men and video games? My SIL2b's dh wouldn't go to bed on their WEDDING NIGHT because he was playing on the computer. Five years later, it hasn't gotten any better. These things are serious addictions for some people. From experience, my ex would play for 12 hrs/day when he had to work, plus 40hrs/weekend. Lost jobs from not sleeping then not going to work, lost the kids, even when he has them they go to grandparents' houses so he can play, he's lost everything. Oh, except the computer and internet - those are more important than bills or sleep.
wow (pardon the use of that word), Zmama, that is bad.
Dh has just informed me that he is taking the entire month of February as a game free zone. Hmmm....do you think that has to do with my threatening to get rid of the computer? of course if he makes it through the month then I have to hear that he obviously isn't addicted if he can spend a month away from it. Should be an interesting month. ![]()
*sigh* I'm so glad that there others like me out there. A friend turned DH on to it about a year ago, and it's pretty horrible ever since.
At least he goes to work ever day and comes to bed at a resonable hour during the week, but if he's not at work he;s in front of the computer. he doesn't help with any chores, (I work full time as well) and just expects that the cleaning and dinner fairy will come and do everything so he can "relax".
I'd like to have kids one day soon, but I have mixed feelings about doing so. Am I going to end up a "single" parent because of it?
We argue constantly about WOW, and he refuses to believe that there is a problem. I hate having to ask him to spend time with me.
Oh boy, that was longer than I expected!
Well I got mean about it!
I told him that he needed to stop playing all the time or else we were going to have big problems. We talked a few nights ago and I put my foot down about it. He hasn't played it for the past 2 days. He even has admitted that it's hard for him because he's so addicted to it. I told him that I didn't care if he played it, I just didn't want him playing all of the time. One of the good things that has come out of it, is our youngest daughter started walking yesterday for the first time and he got to see it. If he was playing his game he would have completely missed it. I think he finally gets it!
It's great your husband decided to stay off it a while because he didn't miss your daugthers first steps! Yeah, my husband use to play all the time but here lately he does other things as well. He plays guitar and stuff like that. Luckily he does like to help clean the house so that is good for me! No problems there!
