Game on

Today, I realized that my husband has a video games addiction. I am currently pregnant; he brought us to the same country he's in so we can finally live together, only for me to witness him being glued to his laptop all day and all night playing WoW. He's forgotten I even existed. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML

Forever alone

Today, all I wanted was to spend some time with my husband, since we're always very busy. He couldn't be bothered to put down his video game. Guess I'm forever alone, even in a relationship. FML

Today, I realized just how bad my 28-year-old husband's gamer rage is when I came home to a smashed TV. This is the second TV in three months that he's destroyed. FML

Today, I found out my husband doesn't love me. At all. He told me this while playing Call of Duty with his friends with his microphone on. FML

Today, I came home upset about the sexism in my work place. I just wanted to be alone, but my husband insisted we talk about it. I noticed he kept looking over and one of his hands was moving. He was playing video games the entire time I was spilling my guts. FML

Today, I realized that my long term boyfriend still prefers video games over his kids and our sex life. I haven't had sex in over a month. FML

Today, my husband quit his job as a university professor and picked up the graveyard shift at a rat farm so he could have more time during the day to play World of Warcraft. FML

It might be that he experiences a lot of pressure, and that he tries to escape his social life by playing a lot of WoW. The moment he holds his kid, will make him take care of him (unless severe addiction pre-pregnant). Nonetheless normal playing time of WoW (assuming he raids) is 3 hours in the evening. Give him his space and he will come to you the sooner or later.

Tbh people are dissing WoW too much. Not everyone who plays it is an anti social moron who only can talk about his epics and mounts. Me and my BF met on WoW whilst we both played it, and are now happily living together (whilst only occasionally playing the game). I think your husband will soon realise as your tummy grows what is happening, and will adjust with the situation. Never stop communicating though and, only if needed, set an ultimatum in the end if he keeps on showing this behaviour. Good luck on this new adventure, I hope the kid will be a wonderful one!
