be honest: does your girlfriend accept you as a gamer?

[.p-0-q.]

Be honest, does your girlfriend (if you have one) accept you as a gamer
Or does she gets pissed at the mere mention of WoW?

-p0q

 

[lacktheknack]

I'll tell you when I have one.

 

[theshadavid]

Well I JUST broke up with her but I'll pretend we're still dating, just for you

Absolutely she did, and she was a gamer also. Granted, she was an AWFUL gamer but was a huge Tales fan.

 

[the_pleasure_is_mine]

Yes I play with her on her PS3, she's been gaming for years.

 

[MisterShine]

The last two ex's did, and in fact the last Ex gamed with me.

We were a dynamic tank/healer duo in WoW. Good times.

 

[everfreeDragon]

It's what got to talk to each other in the first place so yeah she takes it very well.

 

[silver wolf009]

Havent got a significant other and if i did and they didnt except my gaming they wouldnt be my significant other for very long.

 

[Evan Snow-Wolf]

My wife IS a gamer. She yells at ME for not playing enough WoW.

you are one lucky SOB

 

[ExileNZ]

She doesn't have a problem with me gaming, just so long as I don't take too much time away from her ^^;;

EDIT: She's something of a gamer herself

 

[JWRosser]

Yeah, I think girls just see it as an additional thing. My ex girlfriends have known how delightfully nerdy I am.

I was playing GTA4 with one and she got angry if I killed pedestrians.
I was playing MW2 one time whilst another was round, and I put her on mic to see how other gamers reacted to a girl playing. It was something like this

ZOMG A GIRL HAIIIII

 

[duchaked]

I wouldn't touch WoW haha
but back when I had a girlfriend...
she definitely didn't approve of gaming, but I just basically didn't mention or touch it when she was around

 

[Naheal]

Currently single, but I doubt that I'd consider someone a significant other if they refused to accept such an integral part of me.

 

[similar.squirrel]

It's occasionally bothersome to revert the Y-axis when we're taking turns =P

 

[steamweedlegoblin]

My ex-wife pretended to accept my gaming habit when we were dating. After we got married though she began a long and arduous crusade to rid me of this alien "thing" that she didn't understand. She was unsuccessful. We really didn't have anything in common at all, gaming simply being one of many of my interests that she couldn't stand. And from that I have learned an important lesson that could benefit just about anyone: never date someone if you don't have common interests that you can share.

 

[Lawyer105]

Yes. Although she's my wife, and is ALSO a gamer! Eat your hearts out!

 

[Betancore]

All the guys I've dated are gamers, so they can accept that I game. Not dating anyone at the moment but I'm pretty sure I'll continue to date people who game rather than people who don't. Although I do get pissed off at the mere mention of WoW - I see it as the demonic thing which stole so many of my friends away from me. WoW is just so life consuming for some people.

Be honest: Do I have a girlfriend?

Hell naw, my good friend and I'm not looking for one.
