Sure it's nice to have a few similar interests or things you can do together, but sometimes you need some time to do your own thing. I play a lot of games, and I've dated some gamer guys in the past. It's nice to be able to sit down and play a game together, but everyone needs some personal time. In a healthy relationship, (imho), both parties will have their own hobbies that they can go off and do with friends. Again, I do play a lot of games, but if that's *all* a guy I was dating wanted to do, I'd get crazy bored realllly fast. Everything in moderation. in case anyone hasnt picked up on it, haemo often says smart stuff a lot i think it's pretty funny that the op has what is almost always a guy's problem in a relationship hahaha | ||

I am an unapproachable retard when I play games and I'm sure I can't possibly be alone there! I can't imagine this will ever change. | ||

I also didn't have to answer text messages right away, make anyone feel bad if I had been out and, oh no, there are boys there. If you by the tldr mean "its not you, its me" kind of thing, then the next 2-3 sentences kind of greatly go against that, I am pretty sure the fastest and most efficient way to get a girl to not like you anymore\turn her off of you, apart from like killing her family or cheating on her, is to act needy in such a fashion. So if anyone is to blame it sounds like it is him =p Although the biggest problem was probably that it was a long distance relationship (assuming i understood this correctly? ) since they are just no good overall. For anyone in a long distance relationship, I am sure there is atleast 1XXX people within your state you could be "equally compatible" with given the right circumstances. So unless it is a short term thing with a definite end in sight, then it is not worth it imo although i guess that is just my 2 cents. n_n Anyway a bit more on topic, you shouldnt have to hide playing starcraft 2 from your boyfriend(or girlfriend.) Atleast for me, if I had to hide me doing a hobby that I love because of my girlfriend then I dont think thats a relationship I personally would want to be in =p | ||

Several parties though it was -actually- going to work out, but you already know the ending. This was my 2nd LDR and last. No hat trick for me. Lesson learned, etc. It wasn't that I was always hiding it (in that instance I did, just so I could keep playing), but with more reflection time it looks like I was just having more fun playing/talking SC2 than socializing with the SO. Eep. | ||

Also: I don't think girls like being compared to other people's exes. I can be a stubborn bitch but I'd like to think I'm not a "my way or the highway" stubborn bitch. We both did things/tried things the other liked. I even got him cheering for the Red Wings a few times. Muwaha. To be honest I don't really care if "girls" don't like it, because it isn't just girls, no one likes being compared to someone in any way that may be (or rather, seem) negative, although I think you missed what I was saying a little. The phrase choice was poor on my part, and I'm sorry. I actually meant to compare your relationship to mine, with my perspective also of the whole "I love Starcraft, I want you to try to love it too, but you don't seem to be." I think really EVERYONE wants to spend time getting their significant other to like they things they do. But from your post I wasn't sure if you tried to take interest in his things. And I don't mean having common interests, I mean trying to take interest in things he liked as a hobby. As far as I know he's my girlfriend and you're me in this situation, which was the point of my original statement...But I just hope that you were trying to be active in liking things he was into, much like you were getting him to like things you were into. That can be said for both of you. Frankly he sounds pretty lame so I doubt he even tried or wanted to... Yeah I could've worded it better. PS: Holy shit you can doodle! | ||

I'm currently saving up to build up my own desktop strictly for gaming (read: I only have the case :X) I want to try and play on the giant TV at home. That'd be sick. | ||
