Geek: Today, I moved three hours away from my boyfriend for college....

Today, I moved three hours away from my boyfriend for college. Even though he got accepted to the same school and had a job lined up in town, he decided not to come with me because the Internet at our apartment wasn't going to be fast enough for his gaming. FML

Today, my long-distance boyfriend of 3 years uttered the heartbreaking words, “I met this girl here in my hometown and she’s really great and we fell in love with each other, I can’t do this anymore. We’re over.” I was planning on moving to his town after graduation this year. FML

Today, after months of planning, my boyfriend told me he's changed his mind and doesn’t want to move with me to where I got a job. Why? He doesn’t want to live that far away from his mother. FML

Today, I changed all my plans, after months of him begging me to, so I could go to the same university as my long-term boyfriend. After I sent in my deposit, he told me we couldn't live together in college because I was "invading his space." FML

Today, my best friend decided to make some life changes. He got a new job, a new car, and asked me to move out of our apartment. We're 1,500 miles away from my hometown. I only moved all the way out here to live with him in the first place because he asked me to. FML

Today, I found out my ex-boyfriend is currently dating a girl who lives in Korea. We broke up because I was moving to a different part of the city for college and he thought the distance would be "too much." FML

Today, my boyfriend informed me via text message that he had moved to Bristol, and the reason he had ignored me the past fortnight was because he didn't know how to tell me. He knew he was moving even before we even got together. FML

He has his priorities straight

In case anybody else was confused, I put an IP trace on #2's comment, and it's from an alternate universe in which the OP talked about being weird and taking away her boyfriend's games. She hid them like Easter eggs.

His priorities are straight

A man who prioritized a game to that extreme is a man who you don't need in your life OP!

Surely you could get a new internet provider or something? But seriously, that's ****** up. His education, career and YOU should be his priorities. Don't get me wrong, hobbies are important too, but it seems so stupid to give up all that for gaming.

This is one of two things, he's either lying and doesn't want to make further commitments in your relationship (for whatever reason) OR games really are that important to him. Unless you're actually getting paid to design video games...they shouldn't be your life. I can think of two girls EVER that have liked that, most girls think it's ridiculous, time consuming and immature. Either way, you can find a much better guy at your future college. Dump the boy and leave him in the dust!!!

I can understand this if he is a full time YouTuber or Twitch streamer, which I seriously doubt. Otherwise, he needs to rethink what's important to him.
