When I first started playing Destiny (admittedly wayyy too much), my wife got irritated pretty often. I noticed after a while that she would throw "that game" in my face every time we argued, claiming I care about xbox more than family. This bothered me, so I sat down with her and tried to resolve it so that things weren't so tense. She claimed that as long as we spent time together (I know, ew, right?) for at least a couple hours every day, what we do after that is whatever. I was obviously skeptical..you know..because women.. but, basically what has ended up happening is that every day after work, we sit and talk for a bit, I help her cook dinner, we clean up for a bit and talk some more, then go our separate ways until pretty much bed time. She plays on her phone and computer for most of the night, and I play Destiny. On my days off, we make make some sort of plans, like dinner, lunch, a movie, etc. Its not perfect every day, but it works. We hardly ever argue about video games anymore. I didn't even catch flak on TDB release day for playing for about 12 total hours. I can relate to the problems experienced by a lot of the guys posting here, but I got lucky and got an actually rational wife.

  • Anything less than 25 hours per day "together time" is not enough. I can be with her for hours on end but just picking up the controller if she's not occupied is a capital crime.

    Women the most beautiful of all the creatures on Earth. So they want to be told it all the time, and made feel like they are. Then they will leave you alone. But don't smother them with too much love, or they will dump your ass quickly.

  • Funny how they will bitch at a dude for gaming......it's like bitch why don't you try to pick up a controller and play WITH me? You might find that it's fun. After all, they expect dudes to watch those cheesy romance shit's with them and be a part of their world, but expect to have to give nothing in return...where's all the gamer girls? (And I don't mean the ones on FB or social media just trolling for likes)
