Okay gals.. in need of some serious advice.

My husband like many out there, loves his video games. He enjoys getting on and playing with his brothers online.

Growing up I had a PS2 and played with my brother. My brother now is still into gaming. I’d say he plays close to as much as my husband, however he is in college and not married.

With that being said... my husband and I have a son. We have been together for several years and this issue has come up multiple times.

It gets better for a week or so then it goes right back into the same ole thing.

I have expressed my feelings about feeling unappreciated, lonely, etc. Also being the sole caretaker of our son and not getting help when he gets home from work.

I know that he could be out doing much worse, drinking, cheating, gambling, etc. I can’t express how many times I’ve told myself to stop overreacting that it would be much worse and I need to stop feeling this way. But I can’t help how I feel and nothing changes.

I can say he at least doesn’t play all night anymore but our situation is now that he “spends time with me” but really it’s an hour, its not alone because our son isn’t even in bed yet and he’s on his phone the entire time, so I don’t even have his full attention.

Then when I go to lay our som down when I come back, he’s gone to get on the game.

I try to not be that nagging wife. I don’t want to be controlling or complaining all the time but I don’t know how much longer I can live like this. I don’t want to take my som away from his dad, and it’s hard because I do very much so love him but I just feel like a piece of booty.

It’s like he still gets everything he wants but I get nothing in return. Marriage isn’t always about receiving I get that totally but when all you do is give and give and give you get to the point where you can’t handle it anymore.

It’s been a while since we’ve had a convo about this and I don’t wanna drop it on him like a bomb but... here I am again, laying in our bed alone while he’s playing the game.

I don’t want my marriage to be over, but I feel like I’m the only one trying. I’ve talked until I can’t anymore, and either it changes for a short period of time, he makes me feel like I’m crazy or he laughs it off as if I’m crazy.

Do I give him an ultimatum? Do I take away sex? What should I do?

Because talking about it like adults isn’t getting his attention...
