Both you are your ex have some issues to deal with.

I love my wife... but I have had at least 10 conversations with her in the past week that ended in her saying "you're not even listing to me, ****" and walking away... to which I yell "YEAH I WAS" knowing full well I was more worried about in game dialogue.

Hehe, gave me a chuckle.

This post pretty much sums up the last 10 years of my life.

Even though I have a healthy mix of gaming and wife time these days, if I'm gaming, listening to a conversation in game and she says something it is hard to concentrate fully on either

Subtitles and chat logs FTW!

Big dogs gotta eat... you will need to replace that hussy when the game wears thin. Man... the issues we guys gotta deal with!

See there's a linear graph that must be referred to that has hotness on the X-axis and "how much BS I'm willing to put up with from you" on the Y-axis with a line sloping upwards to the right. Any girl must fall on or below that line, or you risk being in a miserable relationship.

Given that she lived 4 hours away which required you to be on the phone all the time, that puts her point pretty high up so she obviously was above the line, thankfully Dragon Age got you out of that one.

lol
There are a lot of funny replies.  Im sure there were others but this one stuck out and was easy to find.

[Mordaedil]

It's funny how most people seem to be brought up to think "romance" and "self-satisfaction" are two needs that need to be completed to function.

Let's face it. Not all of you are going to be good parents. So you shouldn't have children. Not all of you are able to tie yourself to one person. So you shouldn't marry. Not all of you are capable of satisfying the partner you have chosen. You may never be ready for it. Why is love so important if it's not the highest priority? Maybe love is just something you imagine you need:

Gamers are selfish creatures wishing to fulfill everything they "feel" they need, which is often an imprint of their parents, which are often "male and female, married". People go through their lives lying to themselves what their true desires are.

If love is your priority, make sure you find it in your safe zone! If you can't love just one woman, make that clear. If you can't just love women, but need men as well, make sure they know. If you don't believe in marriage, don't marry.

And if you believe you'd probably be a horrible parent...

Well, honestly, if you think that, you're probably a good parent.

Use your gamer instincts!

I think I'm just lucky my partner loves games, if it's possible, more than I do. He even works in the games industry. If I sort of drift off into Ferelden and ignore everything around me, he understands.

If you are someone who loves games and you are not with a person like this, it will never work. Next time date someone you have more in common with OP.

I actually got a new GF just 2 weeks before DA:O came out, and so far, we have spent quality time AND I got to play around 50 hours now It's easy to combine!

[MR-9]

If they're not into what you're into it will never work. At least not with both of you being honest.

tee hee, bummer man

I bet you both still have alot of time apart though. When you live with someone, it's entirely different.

 My now ex is 4 hours away so we didnt see each other often but made it work. Before DA: O we texted all the time and talked on the phone every night. Once I got the game I completely lost the ability to care about communicating with her and would ignore her calls and texts so I wouldnt be interrupted. 

She got mad about it and I dumped her.

lol

4 hours away is fail. You never really had a girl bro.

I'm a girl, yes I play Dragon Age (hell, I bought 2 copies and gave one to my husband as a gift), and it's so amazing how men treat women like fodder even in what we consider "advanced" countries. Let's see...if she suddenly developed an interest in another cute guy and "completely lost the ability to care about communicating" with you, and ignored your calls and texts so she wouldn't get "interrupted" being with him, maybe you'll get mad and SHE'D dump you!

How's about that? I think that sounds really cool.

Oh right, so girls don't treat their guys like fodder?

Even Tiger Woods is getting beaten up these days .

[Lady Rivinn]

Gotta love the gamer guy mentality... my gf wanted to talk with me and I got mad she was bothering me because I didn't tell her I got a new game I really wanted to play, so I dumped her.



Looking at the majority of replies by men in this thread... it explains why I'm still single: I don't want guys with such an immature mentality.



And not giving a girl a gift until she puts out? Good luck getting her to put out if you don't want to talk with her, or show her you care. And a single rose? Great gift. Not uber pricey either. And you know, you don't even need to give a gift if you're willing to actually talk to her instead of ignore her.



Gamer girls exist, but I bet most are smart enough to avoid the selfish, immature gamers, and go for the guys who actually care about the feelings of another person. Though probably a bunch are already married to the mature gamer guys.



I should talk though, I rented DA: O, and barely spoke to any friends on msn, and all I was doing was non-stop playing the game.

Good to see that misogyny is still alive and well in the gaming community. I feel so loved.*

1. long distance relations never work

2. dont call, text your gf all the time. it kills the relation

3. dont listen to women on relationship advice, they will always support the female.

Interestingly:

1. My husband and I were born and raised on different continents, lived a 10-hour train journey apart while dating and spent 7 months before our wedding in different countries.  We've been married eight and a half years now.  Rarely =/= never.

2. Can't comment on this one, my dating experience predates mass use of mobile phones.  Telephones didn't seem to harm us any, though.

3. Not if they're honest (yes, we do exist before someone drops that in), and/or are closer to you than the girl.  In this instance, for example, it sounds like it was pretty mutual and the best choice for both of you.


Carry on now, boys. :innocent:

[Justin2k]

My girlfriend and her sister play this thing far more than I do. Her sister is on the 9th playthrough or something. :-/



It's quite a good game for girls, you should have shown her it.

[Thnap]

Relationships are overrated anyway. Meaningless, throwaway sex is the way to go my friend.



It's not really anyone elses place to judge you for this; all that's important is that you're happy. If you enjoy playing Dragon Age that much, who here has the right to advise you otherwise?

Reminds me of that story in which a guy made a heartfelt romantic gesture and the woman turned around screaming "why didn't you get me diamonds!"

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.

You sir, are a god.

Honestly don't know any women like that.  I barely even wear jewelry (one necklace that I always wear, and my university school ring, that's it).

There are very vain, selfish women out there, that might even do such a thing... but guys assuming that all women are like that is like that is incorrect.  Just don't choose the "cheerleader" or "super model" girl for your girlfriend!  Of course... that's the type of girl some guys go for, so really you get what you go after.
