Today, I gave the option to my boyfriend of 5 years to either quit World of Warcraft of lose me. He said WOW makes him happier. FML

WoW is a lifestyle. That ultimatum.. was a life/death situation, how could you do that to that poor guy!?

I think if I gave my boyfriend that choice, he'd probably choose WoW too :| But he's kinda stopped playing it now because he can't afford it :D

WoW addiction/playing is getting crazy, lately.. >.< FYL.

Nothing in this says the guy was addicted. OP is clearly a bitch for trying to force him to give up an established hobby. I'd dump her too if she tried making me stop the things I enjoy.

Even if he was addicted, WoW is like a second job. You can't let your friends down if they need you for raids and stuff. You basically asked him to pick you over his friends and you NEVER do that. Ultimatums are horrible, maybe you should have played with him. That's what I do with my bf... that i still have...

Whatis up with chicks making guys choose them or games. I have never played WoW but played Socom or SoCrack. Girlfriends should be thrilled we play our games, which reduces the chances on us cheating on them. Dam you for making us choose from something that makes us happy and keeps us distracted from some problems. Its a recreation just like you have your girlfriends to talk, we have our games. Never make us choose to quit cold turkey.

What kill's me is the people who are talking through there ass. WoW can be addictive, and if he has ignored you for 5 years, I would say the fault is on you for staying around that long. And you cant force anyone to choose anything, as many have said, he has to want to. My case in point, if I had a better reason to spend time with the wife, I would play wow less. I play almost every night with my son because he likes to spend time with me. we also watch TV, hang out at the pool, do other fun things. My wife, however expects everything done her way, when she is ready and doesn't understand the word compromise. If she told me she is leaving if I dont quit, I would stop long enough to help her pack! I would say, take a long look at what your offering on the table, if you think its valuable, and he still doesnt want it, move on. But at least talk about whats lacking rather then demanding and walking.

i played wow craft for a long time i only quit cause i couldnt pay for it but i dont think i would have done any different

YDI. The type of woman that would give an ultimatum as opposed to talking out the problem needs as much mental help as the man addicted to a video game. I may be a gamer but show me some respect.
