| Oh man, when DAoC came out back in 01 or 02 I was into it like 24/7 (which is why I am here LOL) so yeah, it was hard, but being active feels so much better, I still miss DAoC, but I know I need to get on with my life.

My husband is very big into all games and has been before me. He understands that I don't mind it every now and again, but there are times I don't want it around or I don't want to watch it.
I guess it comes down to you telling him how he feels and how important it is for the two of you to spend time together.

| Uh-oh a World of Warcraft Widow. Google it, I am serious. My brother and sister-in-law had to do therapy. Now he doesn't play anymore. It was out of control. It became like an addictive behavior, and the computer was in their bedroom, so she couldn't sleep. Hopefully, since you enjoy gaming a bit too there can be some agreed upon times that he will play (like when you are not home) so it doesn't get in the way of quality time together. Or agree that while he plays his hour a day you will be getting your nails done or having coffee with a friend etc. Good luck.

My husband and I are both gamers...we play DAoC, WoW, and currently waiting for AoC and Warhammer. My Husband plays alot more than I do, but he made it a rule to get off from the computer and go to bed when I do (and my bedtime varies but I do pretend to be tired are 9pm ). But since we both need to shed a few pounds he exercises with me at one of the three times I exercise per day. We needed to come this agreement about the games when he was doing the samething staying up till 2am or even later. I voiced the stain it was putting on our together time because I was tired of spending our quiet time in front of a PC all the time.

| My husband plays. We are over-run with game systems but the kids do play as well. If I ask him to turn it off and do something for me he will. He does play it alot but I use that time to get stuff done that I need to do.

| My husband goes through stages with this. We bought "the kids"(my husband being the biggest kid) a X-Box 360 for Christmas. For weeks afterward he was up at all hours playing some war game online with one of his buddies from work. He beat that game and months went by with him rarely playing. He recently got a new game and sometimes he will just disappear and I find him playing on the X-Box. It does get annoying but it is his way to unwind. We have been married together and married for 10 years and have 5 kids. So I just let him have his "me time". I use this as a time to take a bubble bath and read a good book.

| my fiancé is a gamer through and through and I knew it when I meet him 4 years ago but sometimes it drives me insane. I am not completely perfect myself because I played World of Warcraft with him for about 2 years but it was the best way for us to spend time together. Now we have a PS3 and the night before last he was up until 2am because he wanted to beat Assassins creed. And now there's a new MMORPG coming out that he wants... cry.. anyone else have to deal with this life style too?
