Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML

You can always have another kid. But that WoW raid will never happen again.

It is possible he freaked but that is no excuse here. He needed to be there for you.

Well that was your fault for being a drama queen and going into labor when there was a raid!

I can relate OP, when I was pregnant I became very sick and thought that I was going to lose the baby. My ex didn't come to the hospital because he was busy playing poker and thought I was pretending to be ill for attention.

Oh my gosh that is awful!!! What an awful experience.

I hope you didn't lose the baby :( Really sorry that happened to you. I can see why he's your ex. What a douche.

No, baby was fine and is now 5 years old. Yes quite the douche. Very happy he is my ex.

66, your ex is now officially a member of the "people hated on FML" list :) Very glad you and your little one pulled through. And GOOD for you for ridding yourself of the asshole!!!!

Sweetie, I think it's time for you to give him a reality boost upgrade. If he can skip out on something as important as the birth of your child, imagine how he's gonna be as a dad. I would definitely consider a separation &/or divorce.

He'd just continue to play his little game and probably not even notice her being gone.

Priorities and comradeship... These will be the values he'll instil into your child; never abandon your raid.

The needs of the many (guildmates) have outweighed the needs of his wife... Numerically, that makes sense.

A raid is probably considerably shorter than labor. Did he make it back for the birth?

Nothing like marrying the wrong person. Good luck.

He needs to get his priorities straight! One day he will look back on this event and really regret that he chose a game over watching his child enter the world and being there to support the one he loves go through all sorts of physical pain. Seems like right now he loves his game more than you...this makes me sad. :(
