Literally.
That’s the third one this year, just walked out the door. Literally broke up with me through a text because i wouldnt drop what i was doing to go out with her.
I give up. I not even gonna try anymore. The only way would be if they also played WoW.
You chose poorly.
In case this is a serious post…
It’s not that you can’t make a relationship work if your main hobby is gaming, you just need to realize that you’ll have to sacrifice some gaming time to spend time with her instead, doing things together.
I realized years ago that I don’t want to do that, so I only date nerds.
You solved the issue right here.
I’m sorry that happened. If someone doesn’t accept your lifestyle (whatever it may be), that person isn’t right for you. Someone better will come along!
Umm, tons of people who are good at the game have a partner (sig O, girlfriend, boyfriend, husband, wife) and more.
What’s impossible is to have that when you have no time management skills and if you have zero clue how to prioritize things in your life. When you make the game more important than people (friends, family, whatever), well…you have issues these forums can’t help you with.
Perhaps you should seek out some help…

Two things:
1.) I have always played video games with my husband, and we play WoW together.
2.) I have always taken precedence over his game, and he has always taken precedence over mine.
It’s not impossible to be a gamer and have a partner. It’s impossible to have a healthy relationship if the video game is more important than the relationship.
That simple.
At the end of the day, if the person you’re dating is not more appealing to you than WoW…you didn’t really love that person.
If his story is true (and since this is Bravado here there’s a high likelyhood it isn’t) it sounds less like his girlfriend refused to accept his lifestyle and more like he didn’t bother to make enough time for her because he was too busy with WoW.
Nope. It’s not.
Maybe, but I’d like to take someone at his word and wouldn’t like to think badly of anyone unless I knew for sure otherwise. 
I got my fiancé into WoW, and even though he’s taking a break from WoW right now hasn’t stopped me from playing. He just plays another game next to me. Date someone nerdy I guess is what I’m saying.
Hmm,at least you did have have a Gf .Try next time to find one with the same interests. I’m sure someone out there for you.
Well, you do spend a lot of time here making long anti-Alliance posts when you’re not playing the game. Just date the forums. All of us collectively can be your new girlfriend. You already give us the most attention and time, anyway.
It isn’t hard to find a partner that plays WoW, honestly. You might need to be flexible about their physical appearance, though-- actually, that’s good advice when you’re looking for a partner, anyway.
Well the countless number of people who who are married and have long term girlfriends would disagree with you, myself included.
Obviously we don’t have enough context to understand precisely what happened, but purely on the surface… there are few things in WoW that would make me tell my wife “no” if she wanted to hangout. Even if I’m in the middle of a M+ run… she is actually very understanding and knows by now that M+ takes 20-30 mins roughly, no biggie. Keep looking dude.
I can see him running to the door,
“But honey,honestly, i want you back ,I was just posting”
i’m bad at wow and still alone
You’ll get over it soon enough, you’ve got the internet at your disposal, and hands.
Besides, people are nasty, you don’t want to get that gono.
Any hobby that takes upwards of 20 hours a week will make dating hard if you also have a job.
