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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I was feeling frisky and my boyfriend was playing a video game in the living room. I started dancing in front of the T.V. with only my panties on, to which he responded, "You're every gamer's nightmare." FML
Today, my husband returned from being away for two weeks. I eagerly got myself ready and sent him a risqué picture so he would come to bed. An hour later, he's on the couch playing Xbox with the message already seen. 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
Today, when I got home, the apartment was clean for once. I gasped in surprise, and my boyfriend came out of the bathroom, carried me to the bedroom, and brutally ravished me. Afterwards, I asked him what brought this on. "Well, I bought a new game and it took forever to download..." FML
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
Today, I felt frisky, so I went over to my boyfriend's place, hoping to have some fun. I brought over a movie, and part-way through it, I started feeling him up. He responded by sighing, "That's really fucking annoying, babe. Cut it out, yeah?" FML
Today, I left the house for a while and when I came back my husband was wearing my lacy lingerie. He looks better in it than I do. 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
Today, after my boyfriend ignored me for hours playing video games, he gave me some attention for a little bit. When I tried to run my fingers through his hair, I missed and punched him in the face. FML
Today, I left my husband in charge of the house for a day. When I returned, I saw him gaming through the window, so I stormed in and yelled at him. Then, my eyes adjusted, and I saw the neatly folded laundry, clean kitchen, vacuumed rugs, and my son, who was asleep until I woke him. Whoops. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Getting to the save spot is pretty essential for gamers... If you waited for him you're an amazing wife!

God I hate the stereotype that women are always turning men down for sex. I have never claimed to have a "headache" in my life, and my sex drive has always been higher than my partners'. And to the idiots that are commenting that "if it was a man commenting women would be all screaming that how dare he expect her to drop everything for sex", you just completely miss the point. It isn't about her expecting him to drop everything, it's about how he reacted. She made an effort to look sexy and be romantic and he pretty much shat all over that and acted as though her making an effort for him was an imposition. What an ass! Also, I'm a gamer myself. Favourite games atm Skyrim and Dragon Age (I go through phases with what I feel like playing). If my man wanted to get busy I wouldn't care if I had just, by sheer dumb luck, killed a hugely overpowered boss that had taken me ages to get past, I'm putting the controller down and paying him attention. If he just wanted my attention to tell me something, I'd still not react with "oh for effs sake", I'd ask him to hold on a bit babe I'm kicking some ass and I'll be right with you. Priorities and respect people, come on.

That's impressive. When you are really nice into a game. Not much can get a person out. Since he only made you wait for him to save instead of getting bored, you should feel appreciated.

Well you did marry a gamer, sooo...

I'm sure the expletive was *because* he was so far from a save point. I know it may seem silly, but there is often a lot of effort going into games. Such is a hazard of dating a gamer.

His comment would have put me off entirely. You picked a bad time too

OP, I would've walked right back into the bedroom and changed into pjs or something. Told him you snooze you lose. Or in his case, you can't turn it off so I got turned off 😂 forreal though, you deserve better than that.
