I am confused and Dissoriented, I have nothing left,sad day

[ChrisXE]

Me and this girl been going out for close to 2 years, and Engaged. I think I blew it, she told me like 2 hours ago at my house, that we cannot last any longer due to a habit of mine. I feel hurt,torn and sad, none that I ever felt before. When she told me tonight "She fell out of love tonight" I was crushed. We were engaged and everything, getting an apartment late august. My own joy destroyed my love, videogames. She said I pay to much attention to videogames, and Cheapassgamer(yes she knows this site by name). I am so confused, just dont know what to do. Pleas save rude comments for someone who cared....Im sure Im not the first person to this happen to.

[WhipSmartBanky]

PW...aw, screw it. Sorry dude.

[xzafixz]

any girl that would do that isn't worth a damn anyways

[SpookyD]

or you could quit going to this site and ease up on the games. She has to be worth somthing if you got engaged and were getting an apartment.

[captainfrizo]

Sorry man.

[dafoomie]

Pretty ironic that she left you because you paid more attention to videogames than her, and the first place you go to is a videogame site...

I would say that its not the games per se, just you not paying any attention to her.

[ChrisXE]

trust I pay plenty to her, but she doesent give me any ME time(ex internet,videogames,friends)

[LoganDX]

Talk to her. It may not be too late. You definitely got to pay attention to her man. All the videogames in the world couldn't make it up if I lost my wife...

[WhipSmartBanky]

trust I pay plenty to her, but she doesent give me any ME time(ex internet,videogames,friends)

Clearly you get some ME time if she's complaining you spend too much of it on here and on video games...

[ChrisXE]

It hurts, but dont know if I can kick a game habit thats been with me since atari when i was 2, but I can cut back on it

[Kaijufan]

Thats too bad ChrisXE.

[ChrisXE]

BUT she kept the ring, dammit hopefulyl she at least give the ring back if she broke up with me(400$) i can use on sumthing else

[Scorch]

Sucks man.. sorry to hear that. My girl loves to game, too. You should find a girl gamer.

[mousin]

aww, that really sucks, too bad my gf loves to game with me, all kinda ways. but if shes that type of person who wont give you space, think about when your married. its like being on a leash, even worse, a choker. your the one who shouldnt be taking this as a bad thing, let it go, because i know they will be otehrs willing to ENJOY even videogameing with you. sorry to her what happen man.

[SpookyD]

BUT she kept the ring, dammit hopefulyl she at least give the ring back if she broke up with me(400$) i can use on sumthing else

games?

[WhipSmartBanky]

A $400 engagement ring? A true cheap ass!

[ChrisXE]

cheap to the core :)

[ChrisXE]

and i make payments on it, 6 month payment plan

[biggestinuyashafan]

that really sucks man. if she is important enough to you then you should at least cut back a whole lot on the games and this site (my girl likes games too,that is why i am allowed to play them as much as i do,cause i am playing them with her).

[Meitak]

Hey, I just registered to reply to this.

I'm a female who's been pretty heavily addicted to mmorpg's and muds in the past, and dealt with dealing with a relationship at the same time so I know where you're coming from. I was frustrated with my first serious relationships because it would cut into my playing time a lot, and when we finally broke up, I was glad to be able to play as much as I wanted to when I wanted to. I did put aside time for him though. With my current boyfriend, I play when he's at work or when he's gone to sleep.

Also my best friend's boyfriend was really into games and he would neglect her, and so I got her perspective of being hurt by his game playing.

What I think you should do if you really want to be with her, is to tell her htat you want to change things, and I'd suggest trying to see if she'd be willing to schedule a certain time each day/night(every night from 9-12), or perhaps one or 2 days a week where you can play as much as you want to without her being upset, the rest of the time you will spend with her. That way you can have time to do what you enjoy, while she knows that that time is your time so she will be expecting it, and she gets you for the rest of the time. It's less hurtful when you know when to expect not being able to spend time with someone, rather than when you're wanting to have a nice night with them and being let down all the time when they decide they want to do something else. I think scheduling play time could work.

Well, good luck, hopefully things work out for the best- If things don't work out with her, at least you can maybe look towards finding someone else who accepts your habits, or even will play games with you.

[TheUnsane1]

A girl who can't except you for who you are isn't some one you want to marry anyways. That said talk to her see if you could include her in some way to your hobby. My gf has become quite the gamer based mostly on me getting her into rpgs and some online gaming, now she is all excited for games to come out its pretty cool. If it doesn't work out chalk it up to experience and move on just make sure you do move on dwelling on it won't help you.

[trq]

Well, if I may make two slightly contradictory suggestions:

1) It's important to find a girl who understands that being together doesn't mean being joined at the hip. If that's not what your girl was like, then it's almost inevitable that this would have happened over something else. I've know and dated many girls who felt like I didn't pay them enough attention if I didn't spend EVERY waking free hour with them. It's suffocating, and the problem is with them, not you.

But...

2) Always remember: "Everything in moderation." We all love our games, but they're meaningless if the rest of your life (job/school/girl/family) doesn't provide some context.

Hope this pans out however you want it to.

[Monsta Mack]

Hey man don't give up. Arrange for a meeting and maybe things can work out. Admit to your mistakes and amend them. Don't give up man.

[jimbodan]

Damn, you should really get your priorities in order.

[x0thedeadzone0x]

Chances are if you guys are engaged you still have a chance. However, if you put off calling her she'll think that you don't want to make an effort to get back together. Contact her as soon as you can. Talk to her, maybe apologize for not being there when she needed you to be. If this just happened today there is most likely still time for you. Getting engaged and an apartment together is a huge thing. She might even be reconciling her decision right now, but you have to call her or you could miss out on what could be a great marriage in the future.

Make your first priority trying to talk to her and reason things out, and cut off on the video games just a little bit to devote more time to her, or play more multiplayer games that maybe she'll like and invite her to play (I'd stay away from competitive though, co-op is best :D). With some time she might just get into games and then you can start playing again like before. Just make sure to not ignore her or to invite her every once in a while.

But first make sure that you communicate to her that you're sorry (even if you're not) because that will probably mean a lot to her and I can't imagine someone breaking up for such a silly reason unless you were completely devoted to nothing but games.

Sorry about your loss, that must really, really suck. But you have to contact her ASAP or else things may never patch up.

[1SwtDeception]

wow that really sucks.. i heard alot of stories like that.. girls<games.. it's just really really sad..

you should learn to set your focus on your fiancee cause women do crave attention i suppose . a nice talking should do

[dustyeff]

Fuck videogames dude. If I was engaged and this happened, I'd simply toss all my games in the trash for her -- well, except for maybe the latest football games. Gotta have those.

[allisonaxe]

i'd have to say if she can't take you for being a gamer, find a girl who will, maybe even one who will play them with you.


and dustyeff, i just read your comment: thats pretty stupid. love if fleeting, but games last a lot longer! in this day and age, people can't stand each other for that long... but if you ever trash your stuff, at least let me know what rubbisn bin you put them in. :lol:

[WhipSmartBanky]

If nothing else, ask for a face to face meeting, then once she's there, ask for the ring back. Can't let the bitch have her cake AND the ring too.

[bignick]

any girl that would do that isn't worth a damn anyways


Seriously.

[cag1000]

its all about making her want you and her come back. Pimp yourself out. make more money get your own apartment (alone). buy a fat ass car new clothes hair cut, TAN,TAN. Try not to mention videogames around her, i know its hard, or CAGer. It will take time to do this but in the end you can have her and own her where she's on your doorstep wanting to chill in your new apartment and when u answer the door your new gf will be in the on the sofa with an xbox controller in her hand and u will then slam the door in this girls face saying ooh im sorry im playing xbox now with my girl dont bump into my bmw on your way out the alarm is sensitive.

[JSweeney]

I don't understand. Why is everyone suggesting he go back grovelling like a dog? You go back and have a sit down. You discuss everything about your relationship into sickening minutia (Women seem to love doing this). Through this honest discussion, you will know whether or not you actually want to continue this relationship and in the future get married.

If not, cut your losses. Losing a 400 dollar ring is a lot better than half of your assets. Dumping out of an engagement is much better than waking up in a couple of years and realizing that you are in a loveless marriage.

[JSweeney]

its all about making her want you and her come back.
Why? Unless you are actually in love with that person more than all others and all things, there's no reason to. People are replacable, except in the very rare situations.


Pimp yourself out.
That's just wasteful. Pimping yourself out suggest a wasteful use of money and gaudy, tasteless, yet expensive crap, just because it's expensive. True connesseiurs know that money is best spent on elegant, understated things, not brash, show crap. Ask any of the old money in the Hamptons. They'll be happy to go on endlessly about the nouveau riche
and thier incessant need to "pimp thier shit out".

make more money get your own apartment (alone).

That would suggest the only thing the girl cares about is money.
If that were the case, she'd be nothing but a low grade whore... If whores were his thing, he could afford a much better one for much less money..
renting would be much better than leasing in this situation.


buy a fat ass car
Why? To impress a whore?


new clothes hair cut, TAN,TAN.
Yep, this is obviously a deep, spiritual connection here. Throw around money and enhance your physical appearance. Can you get just a little more superficial?

When you're done with your little fantasy world, I'd bet a couple of financial planners and consultants would love to bitch-slap you just out of principle. I think the men of the cloth, women actually looking for romance and a couple more irate groups would be queuing right behind them.

[lord_ebonstone]

There's really only one solution left at this point:

Get her drunk and put it in her butt.

[ajh2298]

LOL But seriously I agree with Jsweeny, there are a lot of go back begging posts and of course the throw away your games post but if she left you over some games without even trying to work it out i'm thinking there is a deeper problem and sooner or later she would have dumped you for something just as petty.

[Cracka]

i say you should tell her you quit... hide you games somewhere.. get married, then bustem out and be like WHAT NOW BITCH!?!

[JSweeney]

i say you should tell her you quit... hide you games somewhere.. get married, then bustem out and be like WHAT NOW BITCH!?!

That would be obvious... she leaves, takes half of them, and then burns them in front of your house/apartment, laughing uproariously.

[scsg75]

i say you should tell her you quit... hide you games somewhere.. get married, then bustem out and be like WHAT NOW BITCH!?!

That's awesome. When I first met my girlfriend (whom I now share a house with and we are going on 4 years), she asked me if I played Playstation, because her ex husband played games all the time, and she hated them. I at the time said, well, a little, but I'm not obsessed with them. Which at the time was true. Now, 4 years later, I am totally obsessed with collecting systems and games and she hates every second of it. But its about sacrifices, she has hobbies I don't care about or like, but I am in no way going to say, "stop liking Harry Potter, you're 31 for gods sake, grow up!" because I have respect for her and what she likes, even if I don't like it. Just like she would never say "stop liking video games, you're 29 for gods sake, grow up!".

A relationship is based on a mutual respect and if that's not there, there is no relationship. Move on dude, don't change who you are to please someone else, because in the long run, you will be miserable and resent her for it. Other girls are out there.

[Neo]

Don't ever give up games or any other thing you like for someone else, it's your life.

[cag1000]

what a surprise here's Jsweeney again with his opinions on other people's opinions. A girl disses you then you focus on yourself and make other girls want you then your girl will take notice. You don't chase after a girl that just dissed you it gives her all the power and she will push you away more. Jsweeney you are so full of bullshit rightousness and principals, shows you have never lived in the real world

[dukedynamo]

Here's another perspective. With all that's being said about how she needs the attention and you should try to find a way to patch the torn relationship, maybe she's found a greener pasture on the other side of the hill if you know what I mean. This might be just an excuse for her to feel less guilt for screwing someone else. In the past 2 years that you've been with her, she should have either recognized or learnt to get used to the fact that you're a videogame addict. This is your longest and greatest passion that's part of who you are. For god's sake, you've been this way since the Atari days. Anyhow, you've come to a point where you have to choose which passion is more important to you at this point in time of your life: the passion for her or the passion for video games. Just be honest to yourself, and you won't regret your decision. Loosing her is not the end of the world. There's plenty of chics out there that are more compatible to you and dig your habits. Don't beat down on yourself too much. It's just might be a guilt trip switch on her part. This is not meant to be conducive to you getting back with her, just another angle to look at so that you don't have to feel so guilty about the things you've loved doing all your life. Chics come and go, but loosing yourself every time they go is not an option. Just my 2 cents. Good luck man!

[lukasucre]

lol was it an engagement ring or one of those idiotic 'promise' rings?

also, i can't even fathom people who get engaged without living with each other first. it always ends badly when (if) they ever do get married.[/i]

[ElfAngel7]

ok, my turn to put in an opinion. Love is a very powerful thing that transends boundries and can make the most logical person on this planet into a blithering idiot. It has the power to bring down mountains and destroy nations. That being said, would some one who 'loves' you just fall out of love w/o giving you a warning or at least attempting to tell you? Or do you truly believe that you have ignored her that much? Like some one said earlier, everything in moderation.

However, question yourself. You say you still want to meet w/ her and thats all good. However, you have to take into consideration how easily it seems she 'fell out of love' w/ you. That is something that does not happen easily. I still have phantom feelings of love for my ex and we broke up over a year ago. Perhaps she was looking for an excuse and took this as a way out. Maybe not, i don't know. In the end you will do what YOU want to do. Just be sure that you're looking out for your own intrests as well as the person you care for/love.

[cag1000]

Yes being successful with a non piece car, an education and nice clothes does tend to bring girls better than that viewtiful jow shirt fat computer gut and pale i play games all day skin.

He was going to get a place with her at the end of august right soooo still get the place himself. Watch how fast she comes back. Yes having sex in an apartment compared to next to your moms room can tend to keep a girl longer(maybe not his situation but applies in general)

So i guess Romance costs what under a $10 dolla game on Valentines day. Keep throwing down that coat on rain puddles for girls Jsweeney all you'll end up with is a dirty jacket.

[Neo]

Yeah, I would not be calling her and begging her to come back, that's just lame. Soon it would be that you can't have any friends outside of her either. I also agree with the guy that said this might be her way to try and end the relationship because she found someone else, and doesn't have the guts to blame it on herself.

[schultzed]

How old are you? If you are under 23 and this is your first really serious relationship . . . and she won't compromise, then let it pass. You can learn and grow from this experience.

If you are older than 25, then you should know better.

How old is she? It sounds possible that she is a little freaked out(conscious or not) at your level of committment and found a way of testing you or is finding a way out.

The other thing is you should take a good look in the mirror . . . how much gaming (and CAGing) are you doing??? You might not salvage this relationship but balance out your life anyway.

MOST IMPORTANT . . . don't listen to anyone on this site (including me). You have got to do what is right for you. Make up with her if you can, cut back on games if they are an obstacle in your life, but most important do what is right . . . you will never regret it if you follow your heart.

[Stanky Bojangles]

I would say that she didn't leave you because of videogames/cheapassgamer, that's just the thing she used as the scapegoat.

Chances are she has been thinking about breaking it off for a long time now and the videogame thing was there and she took advantage of it. I know it is hard but you are lucky that it happened now before there was any substantial money involved or after you were married.

I've been married 11 years today (it's our anniversary and I'm looking @ GAG, hehe) and been a gamer all my life. I have spent countless hours playing games/looking on the internet during our marriage and not once has my wife ever complained about it. She has complained about uncountable other things but not games. If you have a significant other who can't deal with your gaming (or any other quirk) and you are not totally and unreasonably obsessed, then that person is not for you. Time to move on.

Oh, and since she broke off the engagement, she is obligated by law to return the ring. If you broke off the engagement, then she would get to keep the ring. Come on I know some of you watched the people's court, haha.

Good luck to you, friend. Everything will turn out well for you in the end...

[Fatesealer]

BUT she kept the ring, dammit hopefulyl she at least give the ring back if she broke up with me(400$) i can use on sumthing else

games?

ZING!!! Gotta laugh at the cruel irony there...

That's being a little... sexist. What are you trying to say, women don't look for romance? Maybe in your fantasy world it doesn't exist but that's what I was looking for. And I found it. I'm really very, very happy now because I'm with somebody I truly love. I could not give a shit about the money or his job. Hell, I would live in a cardboard box if I have to, but I'd still be happy if he was there. Anyways this is kind of going in too deep but I'd just like to say that you basically jumped to conclusions and although I have to agree what this girl did to ChrisXE sucked, it's not like every single women in the world is looking to diss a guy, and if they were really in love superficial things wouldn't make her come crawling back to him either. Most likely there was a fault in the relationship, because I really can't see how someone could be perfectly fine with videogames and then the last second say "Oh yeah well I don't like it now so leave" when they're engaged and everything. I'm sorry about what happened Chris, but I know that not every girl is looking to screw a guy out of his money or look for superficial things because at least I'm not. And I couldn't be happier.

[JSweeney]

UUH dumbass yes you want a girl to want you isn't that the point, who wants to pine over a girl that doesnt want them

You can't make people love you. Lust is one thing, but it is fleeting and shallow. Your suggestions would only make them lust after you. This is good if all you want is a quick one nighter, but nothing to base something so serious that you'd even contemplate marriage over.


Yes being successful with a non piece car, an education and nice clothes does tend to bring girls better than that viewtiful jow shirt fat computer gut and pale i play games all day skin.

Yet again, invoking lust. A relationship based purely upon lust, golddigging and sexual attraction is doomed to failure.


make more money get your own apartment (alone).



He was going to get a place with her at the end of august right soooo still get the place himself. Watch how fast she comes back. Yes having sex in an apartment compared to next to your moms room can tend to keep a girl longer(maybe not his situation but applies in general)

Yet again, your interpretation of the situation is so shallow it's ridiculous.

Who says only whores like nice cars its small down the ladder of needful things he should do but it will make his confidence greater and when he drives by her, what her head wont turn?

Any person who judges all people soley based upon looks and material wealth is a pathetic excuse for a human being. Anyone who trys to bolster a failing relationship by creating a false image by needlessly throwing money around or altering thier body is a fool.

yea the world is superficial grow up

Way to miss the point, genius. Nothing is wrong with having a superficial whore as a companion if all you want is something fun and not long term. If your relationship with someone you want to marry is so teneous that a couple tiny exterior changes would right your relationship, you're obviously with the wrong person.


whatever corny ass whose side are you on the males or all the girls out there that diss guys.
Neither. I'm a realist. Romatic women's point of veiw is to sepia toned to be realistic, and the ignorant fools who think everything comes down to money an possessions are to short sighted for thier own good.

These things will help how he feels and will work 100% if applied correctly.

For about a week or so, until he falls back into his habit. Your suggestion is like slapping a tiny little band-aid over a hemmoraging artery.
It's a superficial solution that doesn't solve anything, but gives the appearence of working for a short while.

Its all about taking away that empty feeling he has.
Why don't you tell him to go get piss drunk, toke up, do a line or shoot up?
Those will take and empty feeling away just as quickly. Guess what? They're just as ineffective in the long run.

Women looking for romance huh? lol wow fantasy world.
Sepia-toned as it is, at least it's honest.

Romance to women equals $$ you just contradicted yourself.
That comment just proves how clueless you are. Have fun with your whores. Just don't marry one.

Keep throwing down that coat on rain puddles for girls Jsweeney all you'll end up with is a dirty jacket.

A good deed is it's own reward.

Noone one is perfect, and the world is imperfect. To suggest that one is perfect is nothing but an outright display of hubris.
All I strive for is to be slightly less imperfect than the world and others.

[magilacudy]

Man, sorry to hear that. I don't know if anyone else has said this, but point is that if she was serious about being with you, she would've brought up her concerns over video games beforehand.

In other words, if she really wanted to be with you, that wouldn't have been the first time she's mentioned CAG, and she wouldn't have 'fallen out of love with you' that one night.

Chances are she's having doubts about commitment, maybe testing the waters. Things like that happen, and you've got to move on (my cousin did the same thing to her fiancee a few years ago, and both have gone on to bigger and better things).

That's being a little... sexist. What are you trying to say, women don't look for romance? Maybe in your fantasy world it doesn't exist but that's what I was looking for. And I found it. I'm really very, very happy now because I'm with somebody I truly love. I could not give a shit about the money or his job. Hell, I would live in a cardboard box if I have to, but I'd still be happy if he was there. Anyways this is kind of going in too deep but I'd just like to say that you basically jumped to conclusions and although I have to agree what this girl did to ChrisXE sucked, it's not like every single women in the world is looking to diss a guy, and if they were really in love superficial things wouldn't make her come crawling back to him either. Most likely there was a fault in the relationship, because I really can't see how someone could be perfectly fine with videogames and then the last second say "Oh yeah well I don't like it now so leave" when they're engaged and everything. I'm sorry about what happened Chris, but I know that not every girl is looking to screw a guy out of his money or look for superficial things because at least I'm not. And I couldn't be happier.

cag1000-have you ever had a serious relationship? I don't mean with your hand either. You can't possibly be or have been in any kind of a decent healthy relationship talking the way you are. Real women IN LOVE don't give two shits about lack of $$. There have been times when all I could afford was something cheap for special occasions and my wife still was happy. It's the thought that counts. Jsweeney is dead on right about this.

deadzone-congrats. My wife has said that a few times and we've been together for over 10 years now. I hope you have as much happiness as we have had.

[red flare graf]

rofl..

Chill out on the games, anyone who tells you not to is a hardcore loser. My girlfriend plays more games than I do, I get around to playing them maybe an hour every other day. Just get your priorities straight. I'm surprised that anyone would worry about not being able to play games, over losing their girlfriend.

[cag1000]

most relationships are all about games and how you play them. If you sleep on that then you will get played. Know how to play and you'll win. Take advice from Dave Chapells comedy since alot of people on this site follow him religously. Guys would live in a cardboard box if it wasn't for girls, you buy that porshce and its like going fishing, gotcha bitch. Romance won't help this guys situation if you read into it. You obviously all missed my point. Since he feels low right now, make himself feel like a fucking pimp, and others will follow in line to him. Guy and girls are both whores in general. Not all girls are gonna be nice and sweet and always be there. Rappers may be self important and annoying most of the time but I rather follow my rules and have an exterior that wont get hurt, than have this happen to me. Who else doesn't think my apartment idea is good? They were goona get one. so go through with it. What u dont think she will show up drunk all late one night crying saying she was sorry, and check all the sweet things inside and think she made a mistake.

[Mustang O-Line 75]

you buy that porshce and its like going fishing, gotcha bitch.

this will be sigged

[JSweeney]

most relationships are all about games and how you play them.
And those aren't the type that are even considered viable as marriage material.

If you sleep on that then you will get played. Know how to play and you'll win.
Wow, losing out a golddigging whore or superficial bitch that decided to jump to the next thing dangling because of money or looks wasn't really would be SOOOO damaging. <BIG OL' SARCASM TAG>


Take advice from Dave Chapells comedy since alot of people on this site follow him religously. Guys would live in a cardboard box if it wasn't for girls, you buy that porshce and its like going fishing, gotcha bitch.

Yet again you can't seem to differentiate from serious relationships and flings. Any woman you can get because you have a porsche isn't the kind you want to be serious with. It's the kind you want to have your fun with and then tell to get out of your car.

Romance won't help this guys situation if you read into it. You obviously all missed my point. Since he feels low right now, make himself feel like a shaq-fuing pimp, and others will follow in line to him.

Hell, why don't you tell him to just go on a massive coke bender while your at it. Both are just about as effective and will both end up with him feeling just as empty as a end result.

Guy and girls are both whores in general. Not all girls are gonna be nice and sweet and always be there.

See, that's you're problem. You are a whore. You can't see past the bling-bling.

Rappers may be self important and annoying most of the time but I rather follow my rules and have an exterior that wont get hurt, than have this happen to me.

If you want to spend your life jumping from skanky whore to skanky whore, more power to you.

Who else doesn't think my apartment idea is good? They were goona get one. so go through with it. What u dont think she will show up drunk all late one night crying saying she was sorry, and check all the sweet things inside and think she made a mistake.

I swear you must be like twelve, and all of your ideas for the way relationships work come from rappers. Hell, most of them aren't stupid enough to belive what they are saying.

[cag1000]

relationships me? i've had more girls than any 10 cager's and have been with the same girl for 7 yrs. not including the older guys married on here, im sure i have u all beat. Use them as they use you. You attack anyone on her Jsweeney that tends to stray from what you beleive is righteous all the time. Sometime the world doesn't work that way and isn't perfect. So some people have their opinions on here. I'm always confident as i peruse topics of you being the first to flame them. My advice to him was simple and would help his confidence. And in his situation probably beneficial to him. I most of the time post on here strong opinions waiting for you to counter, never fails.

[cag1000]

Theres just one point to all this.
this girl that left him and gave a reason of gaming(probably cause she wants to be taken out, and more attention and gaming funds spent on her)isnt the type of girl that you are talking about who don't care about $$ and are so sweet and are there for their guys. If she was one of them this topic wouldn't exist. I'd like to believe all girls are like that too. He choose this girl as his wife, she is playing the games, i told him how to win. nothing else

You keep bashing others on the simplistic nature of thier view about relationships, yet yours continues to prove itself to be the most simplistic of all.

Good to know.

Hey Nuns... SneakyPenguin has been calling all of you penguins and says he pwns you. Get your rulers ready and go teach him a lesson.

What?

Nothing?

Awww.
I'm disappointed.

[cag1000]

now you are just making lame jokes since you have nothing to say about my last post and how i turned everyhting u said into a valid point of view. Your constant negative postings on this site towards others posts show just how great you think you are and just how corny you really are.

[Stargun007]

Like a lot of people said, it's a BS excuse. Don't go for it, man. Arrange a meeting with her, have a talk, and if nothing changes, then ask for the ring back and you leave her.

And is anyone else surprised that Godwin's Law still hasn't taken effect in the argument between JSweeny and cag1000?

[JSweeney]

Not smart enough to grasp it eh?
I can't be making threats of physical violence if I'm suggesting that groups of other people (which I have no membership of) MAY do something.
That's worlds different that what you suggested, a specific statement of physical violence perpetrated by you upon my person. The two scenarios are completely different, and the fact that you can't seem to differentiate between the two is actually rather troubling.

You want to continue this foolish little argument? Here:



read it again ass had and now have loser
Had and now have suggest possession. You just can't read can you?
That's an explicit attack upon you which states that you veiw women as things, and not individual entities. Should I start spelling things out for you more often? You can't seem to be able to put together even simple concepts.


wow us suck isnt that what i have been saying don't sit still and make himself feel better

By continuing this, you continue to do nothing but make yourself look more ignorant, and allow me a platform to state opinions unopposed, becuase your little rantings never seem to add up to anything that even looks like a valid premise.

sure go ahead and i will be one of the few to attack u
It's a paradox. Through your attacks, you strengthen my points. You'd be better off not saying anything and letting someone who is actually competant to try to make some attacks.

so is mine hence the challenge
No, you see, you lack the ability to think logically, or at least debate as such.



I swear you must not read anything anyone says after you get on your little tirades. This same issue has been brought up, redressed, and answered multiple times already.

so someone else gave him the advice already i will put it in different terms what this site doesnt have multiple postings

I can't belive you. Can you even read? What that says is that when you get in your silly little argument mode, you don't actually read what anyone else says, or else you'd be dropping ineffective lines of inquiry or unsuccessful hypothesis. Either that, or you just are completely ineffective at arguing.

I most of the time post on here strong opinions waiting for you to counter, never fails.

Opinions, while they can't be proven wrong, can be proven ignorant, illogical and invalid. Most of yours have been, per the statements of others in the thread.

Well, considering that I won't be throwing out those types of comparisons, It won't be me at fault for invoking the law. That's often a tactic reserved for someone who can't make a forceful point with logic or premise, so they must draw on the depth and gravity of an extrenal situation that has nothing to do with the matter at hand to try to make thier argument seem more forceful.

[defender]

I will be a little mean and blunt and hope that my criticism is taken as my attempt to help you somewhat.


YOU ARE A LOSER! Seriously...she is right. If the first thing that happens after she dumps you over CAG is your post here... she is 100% right. You seem to be using CAG for a support system vs fighting to keep your girl. I would fucking smash my computer in front of her if I had to. If my wife told me that she was gonna leave me because of a computer habit...I WOULD UNPLUG THE DAMN THING. What is more important to you? Your relationship with a woman willing to love you forever, have your kids, and let you spoon her at 4am with bad breathe? or CAG? Not a choice for anyone with half a brain and social skillz.

You either love her and are willing to make the sacrifice of computing or you look for someone else. Sure you could find another geek who sits 2 feet away from a monitor all day but really people..we could all use LESS time at CAG and more time with the loved ones.

Also please note: CAG1000 is from Jersey...which explains much about his odd opinions.

[Zenithian Legend]

i say you should tell her you quit... hide you games somewhere.. get married, then bustem out and be like WHAT NOW BITCH!?!

And then before she can say anything smack her on the ass and say "Bake me a cake" trust me, I've tried it before, I've got 3 cakes that way already.

I don't think you'd be the one using it. I'm completely supporting everything you've said so far.

[snotknocker]

I think you should move on. If she cared about you she should try and work something out instead of throwing in the towel. It seems as though she's running from her problem. This demeanor is a learned behavior and will rear it's ugly head further down the road. It's hard to teach an old dog new tricks. And the behavior modifications you both must go thru will be difficult. Not to take any blame away from you but this seems as though she's making an ultimative stand by her actions and wants to control you. I think she may be feigning the authenticity of the breakup to see your reaction. Try to talk reasonably with her to come to a compromise. If she gives you the my way or the highway attitude.... hit the road. Good Luck

[snotknocker]

Hey ChrisXE .... any updates for us?

[Video-Gamer]

i think he can get over her, because he said tha if she broke up with him-then he wants the ring back - to use it for something else, and i wonder what he will use it for? lol :) plus i bet he can find lots of girls out there, it will take time to establish a good relation ship, but it will be worth it, because there is always something better.

[Nirvanaguy777]

well that sucks, no advice for you here

[PsyClerk]

Everything I would have said has been posted already, so I'll break out the checklist. Let's see...

WSB humor - check
BigNick keepin' it real -check
JSweeney pulling a Sweeney - check
Deadzone with the female slant - check
Defender with paternal wisdom - check
moron thinking he's a badass, becoming mega-moron by arguing with JSweeney - check

We just need Daphatty to weigh in and we'll have this thread complete.

Oh wait, we need the female gamer in NC to post pics. Uh....not for me. For, uh....Casey. Yeah, Casey the CAG mod. He asked. Really.

[ChrisXE]

Thanks for all the oppions, MOST of them are meaningful and helpful. She said I have to prove my love for her BY not using my car to go to her house today. By using a bike no not a mountain bike with gears but my BMX bike. That dont sound all that bad except she leaves a city away (21 miles) and 21 miles back, so 42 miles to prove it. This is total bullshyt, Im inm pretty good shape so that aint the problem. Im use to running 3 1/2 miles each week about 3 times(cross country). I dont know is it worth it

That's a bizarre request. You could always just put some dirt bike in the back of your car, drive a block away from her house, park there and then ride the bike to her house.

EDIT: Make sure you run around a little and get sweaty or the jig's up!

Your choices are:

A - woman
B - Pride

Myself, I'd go with pride. A woman for whom it's worth shredding your self-esteem would not actually ask you to do so.

[Reality's Fringe]

No woman is worth your dignity; this sounds like she's trying to make you her little doggy.

[ChrisXE]

she said its a way to SHOW i want this relationship to work

[PsyClerk]

she said its a way to SHOW i want this relationship to work

No, my friend. It is a way for you to show her that you will humiliate and degrade yourself on her whim. If you don't mind being a lap dog, then by all means, go for it.

Bottom line advice: For her to ask such a thing, it shows that she is far too immature for the type of relationship you seek. For you to even consider it, it shows you are far too immature for the type of relationship you seek. Cut your losses and be grateful you were able to learn such a valuable lesson at such a small cost.

[ChrisXE]

Man I devoted alot of time to her, well I did just get NFL2k5......

[Reality's Fringe]

"I don't care! How dare you pay the electric bill when I sit around here all day, making sure the place doesn't get robbed, and all I want is a litle Chanel dress?! This is over! OVER! If you want this to work, you need to prove you love me! I want you to walk to NYC and come back with their fall lineup, and if you don't THEN I'M GONE!" <<<A scenario form your happy life in the future.

lol na i really never notice her bein money hungry or materialistic. The engagement ring I got her aint such a big loss, I got it from Kmart, when they were having 75% of all jewerly.

I don't want to sound harsh, but if you do this then you might as well cut off your balls and hand them to her. She will know you have absolutely no spine whatsoever and hold shit like this over your head for the rest of your lives. I understand that she is hurting from lack of attention but that does not give her the right to turn around and inflict the same pain on you. It's just childish

If you still think this is a good idea, then tell her to meet you half way. I'd bet good money she says no.

[PsyClerk]

My checklist is complete.

[Reality's Fringe]

Well, then it looks she has a case of "Shit don't stink" which many women seem to get. It's a fucking epidemic. Just do waht T would do; when she starts yelling again, reach back and slap that ho out the window. Problem solved.

[bradr]

I can understand the "devoted a lot of time" feeling. I've felt like that before. It gets easier as time goes on and also the way to look at this relationship is that it taught you about what you want and don't want in a relationship. Look for someone else with the qualities you liked about her but without the ones you didn't. I don't know how old you are but they do say that the person you would marry at 20 many times would not be the same person you would marry at 30.

[snotknocker]

ChrisXE - see my post on page 4 - read my sig.
It appears as though I was right - CONTROL FREAK
Calll her bluff and I bet she starts singing a differnt tune.

[Cornfedwb]

IF she's important enough to you to be getting engaged (and assuming getting married to her), then waning off of the video games should be a non-problem. My fiance told me she didn't appreciate how much time I spent with my games.. so now I spend maybe half of what I did before.

If video games and CAG are more important to you than the woman, you shouldn't be with her, and you definitely shouldn't be marrying her.

I'm not trying to be an ass, I'm just pointing out a view from experience.

[snotknocker]

Damn! I feel lucky. This thread has made me appreciate my wife even more. I never get any grief about playing video games....ever. I am truly blessed.

[daphatty]

Losing your virginity is overrated and only important to 15 year old virgins.

[Cornfedwb]

Losing your virginity is overrated and only important to 15 year old virgins.

Although I somewhat agree with that.. I think it's more to the affect of "your virginity is only important to 15 year old virgins".. once you lose it (and start to hit your low to mid 20s.. you realize sex is just not nearly as big a deal as it has always been made out to be.

You, sir, are correct in every way.

And Kmart jewelry? Shit, I don't believe in jewelry, but I would leave you just for that. If this was a 2 year relationship, I think you could stand to stop buying games for a couple of months and get a halfway decent ring.

By using a bike no not a mountain bike with gears but my BMX bike. That dont sound all that bad except she leaves a city away (21 miles) and 21 miles back, so 42 miles to prove it. This is total bullshyt, Im inm pretty good shape so that aint the problem. Im use to running 3 1/2 miles each week about 3 times(cross country). I dont know is it worth it

Okay, now that's just weird. It sounds like there are other underlying issues here and video games were just an easy scapegoat. Whether these issues are a serious case of 'cold feet' or something more, I would suggest you cut your losses and get out now. Judging by some of the posts you will be better breaking it off now than if you have to get a expensive drawn-out divorce.

I've been married for a couple years now (two years next week), and I'm by no means an expert, but if there's one thing I've learned about relationships is that it's all about communication and compromise. Making you travel over 40 miles using an inconvenient method of transportation is just nutty. This proves nothing, except that she's being immature and irrational about the whole ordeal. Go to her house, drive there in your car, and try to communicate. If she won't talk to you, and can't look past that you drove instead of peddled your little heart out than you're better off without her.

I think you need a cheapassho so you can think things over and see if shes right for you.

I can kind of sympathize with you. I've been with my girl for over a year and we can't wait to get married. She knows I play videogames, the stack of Xbox and NES games in the apartment tells that. The most we've played together was goldeneye and Mario Kart with her bro and sis, whenever we're together I focus all my attention on her. I kind of wonder what will happen when we're livin together and married. She doesn't really have any big hobbies like videogames are for me, although she does watch tv a lot more than I do. I know it'll work out, I have a feeling I won't be as into games when the time comes that her and I are on our own together..

Just sit down and be honest with her about everything, its the best way to go, even if it means losing her, at least you were both honest about everything.

When Rick told me he was having trouble with his wife, I had to laugh. Not because of what he said, but because of a joke I thought of. I told him the joke, but he didn't laugh very much. Some friend he is.

maybe she found the reciept for the ring :shock:

also, when chris posted the bike ultimatum, i ceased believing this tale is true. if it is in fact true, do not bike. it will suck.

she said its a way to SHOW i want this relationship to work

Dude, you do that and you'll be her bitch for the rest of your relationship. She'll know all she has to do is threaten to leave you and you'll do whatever she wants.

She doesn't sound like a very mature girl by that weird request. Plus, she sounds like she needs attention ALL the time which could mean she had problems with her father while growing up.

If that's the case, you'd have to work with her a lot, especially if you two ever end up getting married. If she's clingy now, just imagine when you want to go out with the guys and she starts to get insecure because she thinks you might meet another woman.

Unless you truely love her and know she's the one for you, I'd tell her that you think it's the right thing to do for the two of you splitting up. Hell, she may just be using scare tactics to get you to spend even more time with her.

By telling her that you think you should be separated too, will let her know that you're not going to put up with her shit anymore. I'm sure there's some things she's done or does that's probably not right. I'd issue a few of my own ultimatums!

Think of this like a tug of war match. She's trying to see how far she can get you to go. You need to pull back hard and let her know you're not going to put up with her shit. And if she loves you, she'll accept your hobby as long as it's done in moderation. If not, then at least you can sleep easy knowing that you just rid yourself of tons of problems in your marriage if you did marry her and you can game all you want.

Set fire to her apartment. Then she'll have no choice but to take you back, believe me, homeless people aren't that picky.
