Today, I came home in a really good mood, and I greeted my husband with a grin and a "Hi, babe!" He just muttered, "Why can't you just DIE?" and continued playing his video game. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I felt frisky, so I did my hair and put on make-up and some lingerie. I walked into the living room, where my husband was playing a video game. He glanced up, said, "Oh, for fuck's sake." and made me wait nearly 15 minutes for him to reach a save-game point. FML

Today, I noticed my husband was acting moody, and I asked him what was wrong. He replied that he didn't know, so trying to lighten the mood, I facetiously said, "It's 'cause you're stuck with me, isn't it?" He nodded, trundled off, and hasn't shown his face since. FML

Forever alone

Today, all I wanted was to spend some time with my husband, since we're always very busy. He couldn't be bothered to put down his video game. Guess I'm forever alone, even in a relationship. FML

Today, I came home upset about the sexism in my work place. I just wanted to be alone, but my husband insisted we talk about it. I noticed he kept looking over and one of his hands was moving. He was playing video games the entire time I was spilling my guts. FML

Hello?

Today, after a 16-hour work day, I came home to my husband. I talked to him for about 10 minutes, then realized that he wasn't answering me but had his headset on and was talking on Xbox live. Not even playing a game, just talking. FML

Today, I came home to find my boyfriend playing with himself. He got mad and said I "killed the mood". How? By coming home. FML

Today, I was having horrible morning sickness. I was violently throwing up, could hardly breathe, and was gasping for air between each round of puking. My husband, in the other room playing video games, snapped and shouted, "Why can't you just be quiet?!" FML

Today, when I got home from work I was pretty "in the mood" so I put on some cute undies and a tank top and went to get my boyfriends attention, he was so into his new computer game all I got was a half smile and a pat on the head. FML

Working from home rules!

Today, my husband said a cheery, "Hi!" to me after 4 hours of nonstop Zoom calls. I spun around happily and greeted him back. Turns out he just joined another Zoom call. FML

Today, I saw my boyfriend coming up the walkway to our home. When I opened the door to greet him with a huge smile on my face, he scowled at me and angrily said, "I don't know why you have to do that!" Smile gone. FML

My guess is he was talking to other players. If not, pack your bags.

Don't worry, OP, intense matches of CoD can really **** people up.

I hope it was the game he was referring to, OP!

He was probably just talking about his video game, my dad always yells that type of stuff all the time while playing video games. I'm sure you have nothing to worry about.

Don't take it personally. It's a gamer thing.

I can see how he was probably talking at the game. But it's still pretty pathetic that he can't even say hello, or acknowledge his wife at all when she comes home and greets him. What I don't understand even more are all the people defending him, and trashing OP, or talking about how much it sucks to have their video game interrupted. If you're at that point with some video games, put down your controller and go the **** outside. Seriously.

You know, some people have fun while taking video games seriously and STILL go outside every day. OMG, riiite?

I have greeted my husband in a similar manner before. Usually it is because I have been trying to defeat someone in the game for a while, and now that my husband is home I would rather be talking to him. It's my way of saying "kinda busy talk to you in a sec"

You're telling me you've never been focused enough on whatever you're doing (TV, book, movie, etc) that you failed to notice someone talking to you? If you say no, you're lying
