Is it normal to get ignored for video games?

I think it's probably not entirely unheard of that someone is that engrossed in video games, but it sounds to me like something needs to change. I say you should try your best to ease him out of his habits. If you don't make satisfactory progress, tell him straight up that if he doesn't change soon you're just going to find someone else.

If it weren't for his.. "open relationship".. suggestion, I'd be more cautious about throwing away the idea that you're being unusually paranoid or something. In general, I think that might be a red flag.

My girlfriend feels the same way you do, and our situations are remarkably similar. I told my girlfriend I'd be ok with that too, but it's not just out of disinterest, it's because I love her and want whatever makes her happy, and if that means occasionally experimenting I'm ok with it. At the same time though there's a reason it seems like I'm ignoring her; it's an involuntary thing. She's going through a tough time, and she's a really awesome person, but she's not very pleasant to be around or talk to all the time, so I tend to subconsciously shelter myself when she's around = \

Look at what you're doing first and try to figure out if you're doing something to drive him into that same sort of reaction. Keep in mind though; this also does sound like a case of basic gaming addiction, in which case there's not a lot you can do other than urge him to get counseling if it keeps up for more than a month or so.

The last part sounds like he doesn't give a flying fuck about you. Sorry to say but move on. Find a guy who wants you all to himself, and couldn't bare to share you (Sexually, not possesivly lol) Your guy sounds like a lame lump of shit ;/

What game? I'm on his side if it's dwarf fortress.

More seriously, I think the poor bastard must be having a shit time at work (or elsewhere) and he's finding rerfuge in a rewarding, closed system. There's no easy way out of this. Tell him straight - I love you, I'm loyal to you, but if you don't go cold turkey off these games then I'm leaving.

That way, if he doesn't stop, he knows why he's miserable. Don't stay if he doesn't stop, because you'll wind up depressed.

Videogames consume people, like world if Warcraft, but don't take drastic measures to get his attention, just buy a 2 person videogame that is vert popular an start to play with him a lot, ant try to have fun relatable conversations. But for the love of god, DO NOT CHEAT ON HIM! Even if he's ok with it, or it'll just get worse. : |

Sounds to me like he doesn't value the point of a relationship.

He's so addicted that he doesn't even care if you sleep with someone else - as long as you don't make too much noise and disturb him!

Dump this loser's sorry @ss!

What comes first, games or you?

The fact he's okay about you banging someone else doesn't sound good. He's barely spending any time with you, except to eat, sleep or fuck. I think you need to sit down with him and ask him if there's something wrong or at least tell him honestly how you are feeling about the relationship and that you do feel neglected.

There should be a healthy balance of your time, his time and together time.

You dont need to be worried about how he is spending his time, he is a man and can do as he pleases.

You really shouldnt be having that much time on your hands to be worrying anyway with the laundry, cleaning, and cooking that you should be doing.
