Husband addicted to video games!! He just WON'T STOP PLAYING
First off let me say that my husband is a very hard worker and is more than willing to go overtime to support the two of us. Oftentimes he will come home late and exhausted, and I will leave him to relax and wind down with his games. I too enjoy video games and will play them with him from time to time.
What SUCKS though is amost every evening when he comes home he will ask for dinner and I will bring it up to his gaming room, and he will stay in there for HOURS... usually until bedtime, interacting with me little to not at all! On weekends when he's off work he will wake up and go straight to his computer and play until he "has to" stop, like if we have to go somewhere!! Date night is also nonexistent now because he just never wants leave the house. Usually that time is spent with (you guessed it) more video games.
I wanna be supportive in what my husband enjoys, but I feel as if this is getting a little too crazy.... I feel especially cared for and loved through quality time, and when he plays nonstop I feel ignored, bored, and upset. I have expressed my feelings to him many times, through tears, through gentle nudging, long conversations, and through frustration, and nothing seems to change. It's as if he still thinks he's in high school and doesn't have any other priorities. Do any of you relate?? What should I do??
