My fiance started playing wow when it first came out about 6 months after we moved in together. He's become a totally different person. Sometimes if I don't deliver dinner to him at the computer, he doesn't eat. We have a son that will be a year old next month. What happens when he's old enough to understand that a computer game is more important then he is? Or what happens when I try to tell him he can't spend all his time on the computer, but Daddy can? The worst thing is, I can't seem to convince my fiance that what he's doing is NOT NORMAL, because there's about 3 billion other assholes online every night telling him it's perfectly acceptable to risk losing everything for a game that has completely consumed his life. I really don't know how much longer I'm going to take second place to a video game. I think it might just feel better if he cheated on me. I would feel no guilt leaving him then.

Re: my family is being ripped apart.
Tue, September 4, 2007 - 6:11 AMCassy, I can relate. I am watching my 15 year marriage come to an end because of this game. My husband spends endless hours playing the game and now he is getting some very sexy e-mails from his online "friend" Deb. He even thinks I am stupid for being mad about this spillage over into our lives. Well, I can say the events of late have brought me to the conclusion that I need to look long and hard at my marriage and weather by allowing this to take place I am setting a bad example for the kids. I feel like my family is already ripped appart. And at the moment, I am not sure the marriage is worth the work, and then, why should I do the work, I am not doing the dammage.
