How do you get someone to quit their addiction to video games?

My bf and I have been dating for over a year now. He was a gamer when I first started dating him…and now its only seemed to get worse. I have tried respecting his hobby and his own time, and we have tried to come up with compromises (i.e. he can only play on certaibn days), but everytime we come up with something he finds a way to sneek more and more time in. I can’t stand it anymore. How can I get him to want to spend more time with me and less with his WoW buddies?

say it’s me or the games.

the games can’t give him ANYTHING you can… and basically it sounds to me he’s bored.

break the damn machine.

It seems like sex (or lack of) would get his attention pretty quickly.

Or you completely destroy his computer/game system.

Those are a little extreme though.

Seriously though, it’s time for a talk. It sounds like he’s not satisfied with your relationship, and like maybe he’s looking for a way out. He may think of you as a nag, not to say you’re nagging him, but you see what I mean. The fact that he would rather play video games than hang out with you is a sign that something else is going on. Ask him about it, but stay clear of any big confrontational scenes.

Life is too short. Find someone who really appreciates you and let this guy have his sad little life. You have your whole future ahead of you. Make the most of it!

Best wishes to you!
