yeah unless he was purposely ignoring you, that was an incredibly rude thing for you to do.

Be glad you're still alive. I would tear my husband apart if he did what you did. (Of course I would feel sorry afterward for being such a clichee! Or bitcheee?) Never turn a gamer's device off! Never! Even if the house burns down, leave 'em quietly and be proud for having known and loved a warrior of the console as they go down playing while being consumed by the fire!

You can do a lot of shit, but not that

It's your fault, why wouldn't you ask him to turn it off when he gets a chance? In the middle of a match or at a place you can't pause or save that would piss anyone off, maybe you don't care about games at all but he obviously does, you didn't consider at all how he would react you just thought "I'm gonna turn it off to show him how serious I am" and instead you lost all his respect right there.

Yeah, basically any time you physically act to force someone to do or not do something you're seriously ******* with their integrity. Compare it to someone turning off the water when you're in the shower or taking your lunch plate from you and throwing it in the trash. You're granting yourself a lot of license to act however you please when you do that. And if you act that way in order to start a conversation about how badly your relationship is working then you should expect this outcome. Maybe it's better for you not to be with this partner. Maybe not. Either way you brought this onto yourself, regardless of who you might choose to blame for the state of the relationship.

A perfect exemple of both a "FML" and "YDI"

Someone else said it. You say you want to speak to them, and you set a timeframe for AFTER. It's rude to wait until they are deep into something, then expect them to put that aside. Even ruder to keep interrupting, then finally pull the power. I'm a reader, and if you must ask me something, make it quick unless it's an emergency. YDI

That's about one of the rudest things you could have done. You wanted him to listen after you just acted like a spoiled 2 year old? You deserved it!

I play games, and even if it's unpausible like an MMO, Smash, racing, etc, and i can see someone needs my attention for something urgent, I'll just put the controller down or allow myself to be kicked. Whatever to leave the party or match. I'd be annoyed or angry if someone turned off my game, sure, but I wouldn't break up over it. They both have growing up to do imo.

Anyone else feel like Catdragon is probably the OP on a separate account trying to drum up some sympathy for herself?
