Because girls who like games? OMG THAT NEVER HAPPENS EVER. :O
Seriously though. Obviously this guy is a hardcore fan of Firefly. To me, if you're a hardcore fan of ANYTHING (talking about Trekkies, Renfest people, the sort of people who put their heart and soul into their hobby) and your significant other's response is 'ugh, I can't stand that thing you love above all other things'? That's going to be an issue, especially if it's a big part of the things that you like to do, spend money, time, and effort on, etc. Dude is a Browncoat. Obviously Firefly means a good deal to him.
There is a difference between your super girlfriend/boyfriend not necessarily liking the same things you do, and dissing something that you really love. If it was the former, yeah, he was out of line and is a moron, so on and so forth. If it was the later, then dude. It's not like he divorced his wife. He dumped a girl he'd dated for a month. There are TONS of sexy, steampunk-inclined geeky gamer girls out there just like that one who DO like Firefly, and dude is clearly better off hooking up with one of them.
