My girlfriend is sick of me playing WOW so much (not enough time spent with her, yada, yada...) and wants me to cancel my account. Should I kill her?

    just dump her, she's obviously better off without you if the first thing that comes to your mind is, 'My relationship is having problems, i better go post about it on the internet instead of reflecting on the situation and doing working on caring for my girlfriends needs'

    WoW is pretty lame.

    You should cancel your account and go fuck your girlfriend.

    But wear a condom.

    Because I don't want you procreating.

    Not that I should be putting you down, as I don't know you.

    But around the time I met my girlfriend, and it's a very serious 'the one' relationship now, I lost interest in playing WoW and realized if I am online I rather talk to her, or if I have hours free I rather call/text or go out with her. I don't see how anyone else could be different with their girlfriend, though I suppose it is different for everyone. I just can't compare gaming and my girlfriend, gaming is something I go to when she is away/busy or something of the nature, that's just how I am.

    I just think that if you really care about someone or you love them, something as materialistic as a game or something of the nature shouldn't compete for time. Something like a job or something that overall contributes to your lives should, but not something that is usually used to kill time in general.

    If she had to voice a complaint to you about your WoW playing in the first place, I'd say your relationship is pretty much fucked anyway.

    I honestly don't see how someone can post this and not see the major problem, I mean if you are complaining about a girl whom you chose to date wanting to see you more, maybe you shouldn't be in a relationship. I mean if a girl is practically pining for you, she most hold you quite highly and have a lot of respect for you and the time she has with you.

    I say give it a try, put off WoW for a table of time, and dedicate it to spending the time with her that she wants, then see what is more desired. You might be surprised.

    This is a binary system.

    There are two states this situation can be:

    State 1: Your girlfriend is being a clingy cunt and wants to remove the one thing you do apart from her because she wants to monopolize your time. She's a controlling bitch, and the best thing to do is kick her ass to the curb.

    State 2: You are sucked into a game designed to be as compulsive as possible and you are neglecting her and you need to cancel that fucking game and actually do something with your life. Because, seriously, dude, priorities.

    Think about your situation hard.

    Choose a state.

    You're responding to the guy who ended his post with, "Should I kill her?"

    That's not even "har har look-at-me-crossing-the-line SE++ wittiness." It's just...weird.

    As in, this guy is probably a complete douche.

    Wow man, I just saw that bit when you mentioned it. I didn't notice it on my first read through, bit half awake, that certainly jolted me.

    Well OP, I think you definitely need to cancel the game in hopes that your priorities, by some miracle like manner, come back into order and you have a normal life, by healthy standards, and you are happier.

    I can say this one of those "one of us always lies, one of us always tells the truth" type things.

    The correct answer is: Break up with her.

    Because if she's a controlling cunt? You're better off.

    If she's not? You're a sweaty WoW douchebag and you don't deserve her.

    Everybody wins!

    honestly who the fuck screws people over for a game? I mea yeah i had fun playing WoW but if a lady friend wants to do something, your karazhan run should go fuck itself

    and its not like playing the game will make you win in the long run. You are gonna get bored with it, youll quit, and then you will realize just how much time you wasted on it and you will feel like a complete fucking dumbass

    but you aren't far off

    my brother quit WoW cold turkey one day because he got a call from his buddies who were inviting him to go out and see a movie with them, and he was like "naw, i'm getting a raid group together and... WHAT AM I DOING?! NO! NO!"

    he was becoming what he hated

    I've never actually seen the point to WoW and as such have never actually played it.

    It seems to me to be a time intensive game with no reward at the end of the tunnel. You don't even finish the story.

    I never raided because no, I'm not going to play through the whole night and I'm not going to be on whenever you want me to be. I've got other things to do.

    I wasted so much time with WoW.

    And I'm looking forward to waste more time with WAR...

    Yesterday I was in a train and just next to me there was two teenage girls talking about WoW. Other one was about to buy the game as the other one was raving about how much fun she's had playing it.

    I don't know about WoW, but nerd girls are so goddamned hot!

    Hell, she plays more than I do.

    This has it's ups and downs, as you can imagine. However, if either of us are up for something more than WoW, fuck the game and we're doing something else. It's a nice thing.

    I played WoW for about a week and a half.

    Got my cute little paladin chick up to about 21, and then just got bored of it all.

    "There's a guard on patrol. Bring him this sandwich."

    Great fucking quest there.

    Walking into Iron Forge for the first time was wonderful, though.
