[I HAS A FLAVOUR]

Cool story bro.

[Nosuchluck]

Go gay. It's the perfect way really as most guys like games, he'll understand why you're too busy to talk

Or you could find a hot chick who likes games but they're super rare I'm told

I am going to swim against the current in this one. I do not have a gf. I am an avid gamer, but I realise that in life there are far more important things than playing games. Would I like to play games as long as I live ? sure. But for me the reality is in the future, if I get married or is in a relationship, I would be ready to ditch gaming. There are far more important things in life than gaming.

Because it has to be one extreme or the other. Balance isn't possible, but hey, you've got the girlfriend/wife that society demands.

My g/f is in Texas. I'm in Hawaii. I try to take an hour or so out of the day to talk with her and take a game break, but she's been very patient and happy to see me enjoying DA.

Hell, she keeps telling me "I'm so tempted to buy it" - in thanks for her patience and understanding, I bought her both the new WoW pandaren monk pet and Mass Effect [on sale for 10 bucks? Insanity!] - she's been getting sucked into ME and conversing with me about it xD

The point? It's all about how you handle it - sometimes the gaming side of things can show that you might not be compatible, but part of making a relationship work is also ensuring that both sides are being fair and compromise when necessary.

...god, I just sounded like a friggin marriage counselor right there.

*goes and stabs a Desire Demon* Take that attention-starved wench!

Once I drove off the side of the road and did a 180 into a ****ing ditch trying to answer my ex gfs pointless phone call to chit chat



Oh and as for someone saying gamer girls are a myth , yeah they are like bigfoot and aliens they really do exist but they are VERY hard to find

I'm under the impression you have yet to get your first gf then?

Once you do , and you realize how horribly over rated relationships and girls in general are you would never in 10 million years sacrifice gaming or who you are to be with them

You may at 1st be blinded by the ambition of getting laid , but sooner or later you would wake up and smell the coffee and realize you shouldn't compromise yourself for a stupid girl

My wife will actually give me all evenings after work, and all weekend to play DA:O, with minimal intrusions. Then when she does come to talk to me, she actually manages to stand there and keep her mouth shut if I'm in the middle of a dialogue (has even stood there and waited through a crazy long ending cinematic in another game), and after all that will STILL put out for me when we go to bed at night.



God I love my wife. I'm going to go buy her some flowers.

Dude, any girl who would make you completely give up a hobby that is important to you is a real POS that you shouldn't even consider dealing with.  That is just totally inconsiderate.  Of course, consistently ignoring your gf so you can constantly engage in your hobby without taking time out to do things she likes would be equally POSish.

My pregnant fiance plays the game more than I do.

Give me a fiance like that I introduced the game to my girlfriend and she was like "i couldnt care less"

[Viz79]

The OP's story is probably the best story I have ever read (sarc)

(sigh)

My wife is abroad though finish her final exams but I call her every day when I get home first and play DA if I have time. But then I love her you see, I'd rather speak to her than play DA. Zomg!

And when she is here, if Im playing a video game on the PC, she plays something else that she likes on the laptop in the same room. Bingo.

Well, I just got this game today and was checking out the threads. I got a kick out of this post and had to post. Guess more of a brag. :-P I met my wife on an MMORPG. We have our own hobbies and don't act like we like the others if we don't. Everyone needs their own identity not a false front. The only downside to our lives is if one of our PC's have issues. We are both avid gamers and love playing games. So if her pc or my pc goes down, our house is like a single donut at a wieght watchers convention. DOH!!!

Yeah, plus they do come with a ton of microtransactions (and a few of the macro variety too) that you have to make to keep them happy.

"She got mad about it and I dumped her."



Wasn't much of a girlfriend if she got mad about something you weer in the wrong about and your reaction was to throw her over the side. Or maybe I should say: you weren't much of a boyfriend.



So no harm no foul, either way. Why you up on here whining about it? It's not like you forgot to feed your dog for 3 days and he chewed your face off.

Dude, are you sure? I mean, have you *seen* her? If so, you might have a different opinion on what happened!!!

:P

For all those guys having problems with girlfriends (or girls vice versa), take a lesson from the fine game in front of you. Try giving them gifts! I learned that some women are especially into hand mirrors, certain rare pungent flowers, and odd pieces of jewelry. Also, be sure to explore all of their dialogue trees, and if you encounter disapproval, just re-load a previous save.



Good luck!

Why do I need to care about what happened? Whatever happened, it wasn't Dragon Age's fault right?

I was referring to the part about the dog.

Good luck with getting to the 'married' state without giving a few gifts and doing a few favors now and then.
