Well hey everyone i just got on here to ask one simple question. but before i get to the question, i must tell you where this question came from. my g/f supports my gaming habit very much. she used to hate it but i have persuaded her into liking video games. now she supports me alot. like she has recently pre ordered me gw factions and has bought me plenty of video games for my various systems. and i gave her my x-box when i got my x-box 360 and now she is addicted. i mean she is not as addicted as me but still. and now for the question.

Does your g/f, b/f, husband, or wife, support your gaming habits, or do they just think you are crazy and they put up with it?

hmmm no g/f and those who support that are very rare :/

(i think there is already a thread about that ^^ )

My girlfriend doesn't mind, she drags me to falloutboy concerts, I make her play super smash brothers with me, we call it even. I don't think anyone else besides my roommates even know I play games.

My b/f is a crazy gamer who drug me kicking and screaming to the computer to play guild wars. I always supported his gaming habits but never really wanted to play his games. Now I'm hooked on GW....

I bought GW when I was bored one day...and got hooked... when I met my bf, I introduced it to him and he well, became addicted to it. Now, he still loves it and while I love it, I get bored sometimes and wanna do something else

But with Factions coming out, I'm excited again so

We're both GW nuts

I was told I can not play games and have a relationship at the same time... at least that what she keeps saying....

Well I will go the the next closest people, my friends suport my gaming, it keeps me from killing the mood while they are at social outings and makes sure I stay not dead.

No G/F to speak of, but the one girl I really like and only wish she was here games too so there wouldnt be any problems.

Daemon Dremora · Apr 19, 2006, 06:23 AM // 06:23

well like i said my g/f is pretty much in love with gaming now but i still cant get her hooked on gw. she also has a dial up connection...tear... but for those of you who have a b/f or g/f who also play gw could you give me any tips on how to make her like it. because i would love to play gw with her.

i dunno .. i d say, dont go for a complicated thing

that's yer hobby, the thing u like to do... just show her if she's interested in knowing what is that thing u spend countless hours on

of course that's what all gamers d love

a g/f addicted just like em

the opposite is quite common though .. i know quite a good number of em, where their g/f finds it pointless and kinda ask em to choose, gaming for hours or doing useful things together ..

lotsa ppl are told that u know

i think it's kinda true especially when it comes to online gaming
(like i said above)
sometimes u can be lucky.. i got a friend who plays WoW a lot but his g/f hated when he was playing, she was so bored etc...
one day he made her trying the game..a few weeks later, they bought another comp and they play together almost every evening

Both my brothers, my sister, me and my dad all game.

My hand needed a break so I bought GW.

What? you control your avatar with telepathy O_o

OMG the jiggle has no effect on you O.O

Lou · Apr 19, 2006, 07:09 PM // 19:09

It kinda annoys me when my girlfriends hovering over my shoulder watching me click the same two keys for half an hour. I especially hate it when someone sits down and watches me play GW or wow, makes it all uncomfortable.

Daemon Dremora · Apr 19, 2006, 07:44 PM // 19:44

well i suppose i can just try to get her into gw. last time i tried she said if it wasnt so hard to understand then she would probably play. i told her after a while it really isnt that hard and she didnt say anything so i suppose i am winning. it just sux that all the games she got addicted to gw isnt one of them.

My wife dislikes me playing so much but tolerates it to a point. She still complains if I play for too long. I then spend time with her and come back to the games later.
