I knew when I got with my man, he was an active gamer. He played an online game called CastleQuest2 which he got me into for a while. Since moving in with him, I've realized thats ALL he does. From the moment he wakes up in the morning until he goes to sleep at night (literally, I take his phone out of his hands when I wake up in the middle of the night because he fell asleep playing a game on his phone).
I was told this should bother me more than it does (it only bothers me when I ask him to do something like take the trash out and he doesn't do it for a week).
Do you have a partner like this? What are your thoughts on gaming?
**BTW, he admits he is addicted, but he has literally nothing else in life to enjoy since losing his job almost 2 months ago.**

My partner does this too...
When we met, we met online on a social networking site. I had added him as a friend thinking he was cute, and he messaged me. He was playing a PC game called Mount&Blade which I am now semi into, but I'm not a huge gamer.
Well, when he lived on his own that's ALL he did. Wake up, go to work, come home, get drunk and play games. He moved into my house 2 months after we began dating, which was 1 week after we met online. That's all he wanted to do. Play video games.
From what I've been told, apparently I'm supposed to be miserable too haha! But, he is good about his gaming, though. He does spend time with me. We watch TV together in the evenings. He doesn't have to work because my job pays well enough, so he sleeps in a bit, wakes up, does maybe 1 or 2 things around the house for me, then gets on his games and plays til I get home. He'll get off to greet me and ask about my day and such, then get back on.
I do admit though, he goes REALLY out of his way to make up for it which is unusual. He'll make sure that while we talk about my day a hot bubble bath is running and he IS the one who does the cooking.
So, it's not all that bad.
But a LOT of women want the focus on them, and I get that. But I don't mind if he likes to do his own thing because I can always do mine
