Well, this would be his girlfriend. And quite frankly, if he spent HALF the time he spends getting off to playing computer games trying to GET ME OFF FOR A CHANGE, I might not have an issue with it. Whatcha think guys?

Go ahead and tell me to STFU Tim, but I can go ahead and share what our relationship is REALLY like. Like how you call me Kittybootles, and how you look at me when i'm falling asleep (and then TELL me about it). How's that for manly behavior?

And to Buck: He would "ditch" me IF HE DIDN'T, LIVE IN MY HOUSE, DRIVE THE CAR I HELPED HIM BUY, COOK FOR HIM, CLEAN FOR HIM. Ask him about ALL that.
Oh, and on top of all that, I'm d*mn smart, I have nice tits, nice firm *ss, and by god if I am not fat.
It seems to me that if you want a REPRESENTATIVE sample of the ENTIRE population you wouldn't ask the people who splooge their pants over ATOT.
Maybe instead of giving him tips to "ditch" me, you guys should give him tips how to "please" me.

And now all you little dorks who sit at your computers all day as if it were REAL life (which, it's not) can sit here at shoot your mouths off. I DARE you to show it to any of the women in your lives. Oh, wait, you probly don't have the BALLS.
 
And in addition to what i JUST posted, here's something else:

I'm the MONEY BAGS in the relationship. Not only that, but I am planning for a Law Degree. I'll make more money than he can imagine, and not only that, BUT I WON'T BE SPENDING IT ON COMPUTER GAMES.... i'll be saving it for an early retirement.

oh, also guys.... i DON'T WANT KIDS. there's something else i bet he never told you.

Yes, because a woman can't stay with a man that makes less money than her. That's just not the American way.
 
I'm 26, play games and do not ever plan on stopping. I game instead of watch tv mostly, if I have something better to do I'll do that, but there will always be a place for games, need something to do to relax. For that last of 5 things a few back, I couldnt be with anyone who put that ultimatum down. Unless she wanted to never go shopping again.
 
I used to play Doom II with no sound on a 486 back in 1996-97. I was 24. I'd like to get this game again and hear what it was supposed to sound like...

Would it even play on XP?
 
I'm 25 and I game quite a bit.
I've heard the biggest number of gamers is actually the 21 to 29 crowd.
That being said, in My WoW guild, we have a 57 year old, as well as quite a few who are over 40.

That doesnt look like its about the money, read her post before that one. That whole relationship just looks beyond hope. They are obviously forever and a day apart on life
 
42 and love to play. I'm a geek at heart so I tweak the rig for best results. CSS, total annihilation, act of war: direct action and supreme commander when it comes out in the spring of '07.

I started with doom, all the sequels, hexen, other variates, etc.

I usually only play when the girls turn on the TV. I think I get more from gaming then vegging in front of the big screen. If the 9 year old wants to wrestle or someone wants to play, I'm off and into real life without an argument.

Keep gaming!

Who would ever want a bitch that's this controlling??? No matter how good looking or how much money you make, you're not worth this.

Dump her, OP. If this is all real, dump her now. If it's not video games, it will be any other hobby you have that she has no interest in. Be it sports, golf, anything.

Ever see the Twilight Zone episode "Time Enough At Last" with Burgess Meredith and the abusive, controlling wife? This is exactly the type of wife she'd be.
 
You need an "occasional gamer" category. Some of us play when possible, but it's pretty infrequent. Stupid things like life get in the way.

We've heard one side. None of us know the full details. The post quoted was completely about money and her making more than him.

How many women do you know that will stay with a man that makes less money than her? A few... but not many. Now, how exactly does that attitude fit with a) women claiming men and women should be paid equally and b) women claiming that money doesn't matter when it comes to 'love'?
