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

you deserve it for trying to change him. Congrats to the guy for standing up for himself.

ok a lot of people are going back and forth obviously no one knows the whole story, if she is posting because she infact thinks he is playing to much maybe she was doing something wrong herself regardless of what it is if you try and make someone choose you or that other thing your retarded how would you feel if your partner made you pick between your friends and them? you might not think its the same thing but in an mmorpg you become friends with people over the net any girl that tried to make me pick them over anything i would get rid of them

girl I know how you feel. my boyfriend choose WoW over me too. his reason was because I didn't try to save our relationship. well in fact I'd ask him out on so many dates but he turned them all down cause he wanted to just play non stop WoW.

When a hobby, be it football, poker, D&D, or WoW makes your partner happier than YOU do, that's your failure or his; NOT the hobby. ;)

I have recently finished the trial of wow and i can tell u it is ******* BORING - all u do is get given quests to kill x number of creatures and return to whoever gave u the quest and collect ur reward. For me anways that is as fun as watching paint dry. It probably does become reasonably good latr on (after a few months of playing) but LIFE IS TOO SHORT and there are far better things to do and games out there to play.

OH MY ******* GOD THANK YOU! I'm so glad I'm not alone in this belief. I had a free trial and after about 2 days of playing it while saying to myself "It will get more fun, it will get more fun" I just said "**** it" and quit. I've got so many better things to do with my time.

YDI for giving him an ultimatum like that. he can always find a girlfriend who's not an attention ***** like you but if he loves WOW that's something he should keep doing. next time don't try to control your boyfriend's hobbies

Me or game Fu** you Game Bitch LOLL thats how you say it HAHAaha and i never played wow

Why would you do that? If something in the relationship is bothering you, you discuss it. If the person is unwilling to discuss it, or come to a resolution you can live with, you evaluate it from there. If my fiance were to spit "Abandon this or I'm gone!" at me, I'd abandon it. Long enough to help her pack up, that is. I've been with that type of controlling bitch once, never again. Luckily, I did much better this time around, and I cannot even conceive of her pulling something like that, nor would I ever do so to her. If I told her to abandon her writing or me, I would fully expect never to see her again. And for the record, I played WoW once when it was initially in beta, at the insistence of a friend. It seemed the standard MMO "kill stuff, rinse, repeat", and I didn't play it again.

Hmmm he might have a point, WOW never made me depressed but chicks do all the time :(

WOW is cheaper, more reliable, and more rewarding than most relationships. What if he made you choose between him and TV?

Never make a man choose between you and WoW. We will always choose WoW, because it's always consistent, and available 24/7. It will never cheat on us, betray us, or lie to us. Plus we pay for it...

#409, seconded! But we pay for all of our relationships in one form or another, too. I think the proper phrasing would be "Plus, we pay LESS for it..."
