Video games and Miscellaneous: Happy place

Happy place

By Anonymous - 31/05/2009 17:36 - Poland

Today, my husband of ten years was playing the Sims. I asked him about the house he built. Apparently, it was his dream house, and he recreated himself as a Sim so he could live in it. Then I asked him where the wife was. There was no wife. It was his happy place. FML

Today, my son was playing The Sims, when I saw him remove the door to a room and set it on fire with a Sim trapped inside. I chuckled at first, until I saw that the Sim was me. Meanwhile, my wife's Sim was happily painting in the next room, not giving a crap. All too accurate, sadly. FML

Today, after learning that my wife has been cheating on me, I decided to distract myself by playing The Sims. Not long after I began, my Sim's wife basically started cheating on him. FML

Today, I found out that my husband made a replica of our family on The Sims 3. I also found out he killed me off a couple weeks ago and made a new wife, KiKi. FML

Living in another world

Today, I played The Sims just so I'd know what it was like to live alone, own a home, and have a well-paying job that didn't slowly kill me from the inside out. It was the happiest I've been in months. FML

Today, I made a Sim of myself and had her work out until she was completely fit, then got her a job and a husband. Meanwhile, I sat at my desk, fat, single, and jobless. FML

Today, after five long years of having been together, my boyfriend told me that he wanted to take our relationship to the "next level". We now have a Sims relationship. FML

Today, while playing The Sims 2, I realized I had a virtual person's whole life planned out, and have nothing planned out for myself. FML

Today, I just realized that my Sims character has a far more stable lifestyle than what I can ever have. FML

Today, I woke up to find The Sims 2 running on pause on my laptop. I unpaused to find my character and my boyfriend's were no longer together. Slightly confused, I went on to find the note my boyfriend left. It said, "I hope you can take a hint." I got dumped through a computer game. FML

Oh please, just because it's a domestic game doesn't mean that it's a domestic fantasy that he has built. Maybe he truly uses the game as a way to completely get away from EVERYONE. It's not like he replaced you with a stripper named Candi. Everyone needs an escape, this could be like his forest of solitude.

He rules! It's obviously you who sucks since you are offended by a game.

Aww. That sucks :/ Maybe he just needs his guy time though (: I mean, he's been with you for 10 years, he might miss what it's like to be without a wife and put all of his imaginings into a game.

doesn't mean he doesn't want you around irl, he just wants some solitude

Not necessarily the case that he doesn't want you around. He might just like being alone sometimes, or he might not want to bother to control more than one sim. It's not like Sims are for kids.

At least he's doing it in a game, and not in real life.

Well, if you don't have kids with him yet, don't rush to have a bunch to "bring you closer together", okay?

First of all, it's just a game. Don't take it personally. Second of all, that's really, really funny from the outside looking in.

Uhm...you're bitching about his Sims life? Remember, it's just a game. Now if he were get rid of you in REAL life, that would be poopy.

Sims 3 is coming out on Tuesday. You should make yourself in a bad ass house, without a husband, and be like, "There's no husband. It's my happy place."
