Break Up and Keep Playing or ... NEED ADVICE

So my girlfriend gets pissed when I come home from work and play until I gotta go to work the next morning... So I don't sleep anymore at all, I really don't wanna miss out on any Loot, so I spend all my hours spare grinding Phogoth strike over and over... But I need advice she seems pretty pissed lately and acting as if I must choose between her and work or Destiny! It's pretty selfish of her IMO. I don't know if to break up with my girlfriend or give up playing for a few months.... Please reply with some advice fellow Guardians! Thanks

  • It sounds like you've gotten into an unhealthy habit there. Speaking as a guy who have tried a lifestyle similar to this, it will damage not only your own health but your relations to other people. From what you write in your post, your girlfriend is genuinely worried about you. The least you should do is put down the controller, switch off the tv and talk about it. If you think she is being unreasonable, ask why she feels that way. Maybe you discover that your girlfriend will be understanding and accept you spending a few hours playing each night, as long as you spend some time with her too. Just a friendly tip: people around you notice changes in your behavior. Much more so than you do yourself. And when you play a videogame day and night, every free hour of your day, you eventually change a lot. So if people around you start to sound worried about you, it's time to take a critical look at yourself and the choices you make.
