Health: Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital....

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

Today, I went into labor with my first child, and as much as I pleaded, I had to wait for my husband to finish his raid in World of Warcraft before he'd take me to the hospital. FML

Today, my boyfriend forgot to pick our son up from daycare. His excuse? Fighting in a battle in World of Warcraft was far more important and he had to stay absolutely focused. Our son had to wait for two hours. FML

Today, it was my two year anniversary with my boyfriend. As we were about to exchange gifts, he got a call and said he had to go home immediately. What was the emergency? His guild leader couldn't find another healer to finish a raid and promised my boyfriend gear if he would step up. FML

Today, I begged my husband to take me to the ER cause my stomach hurt so bad I thought I was gonna die. He told me to go sit on the toilet and stop being a drama queen. I drove myself to the hospital just in time for my appendix to burst. I almost died because my husband was busy playing Xbox. FML

Today, my fiancé nervously sat me down for a "serious chat". The chat wound up with him asking if we could postpone our wedding, because his World of Warcraft guild had a raid scheduled for the same day. FML

Today, I realized that my husband has a video games addiction. I am currently pregnant; he brought us to the same country he's in so we can finally live together, only for me to witness him being glued to his laptop all day and all night playing WoW. He's forgotten I even existed. FML

Today, my husband went in for surgery and handed me an important document. It wasn't a will or anything similar, but a list of items and gold he wanted passed on to guild members on World of Warcraft. FML

Today, I was rushed to the hospital to deliver my child. On the way, I called my husband who was in a bar with his friends. Drunk, he just yelled, "BROS BEFORE HOS!!" and hung up. FML

Today, I had to explain to my son that his dad was too busy in a raid on World of Warcraft to be at his award ceremony. FML

Today, my husband was 45 minutes late to our wedding reception. Later, when I asked him why, he said, "I was playing Legend of Zelda and had to finish my quest." He thinks this is an eligible excuse. FML

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

I'm not usually for divorce, but I'm also a big believer in the quote "When a person shows you who they are, believe them." So I'm pretty sure that relationship would be over for me. If he missed the birth imagine how many other things he won't be there for.

That is disgusting. I would say, have the talk of a lifetime with him, see a counselor. If he does this kind of thing again after all that, then he gets to play WoW as he signs his child support checks.

Are you suggesting that "gamers at heart" are all miserably bad at prioritizing? If so, I disagree.

I just can't imagine thinking it was a good idea to have a child with a man-child. You don't deserve this, but you should've seen it coming.

If it was Siege of Orgrimmar he has a bad taste in raids.

Cancel his subscription and bitch out his friends for it. Then threaten to end your marriage unless he starts putting you and your baby first. If he doesn't buck his ideas up, he can play WOW in his mom's basement and limit his contribution to his kid's life to child support.
