Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, after six months of dating, my girlfriend decided to break up with me because my "obsession" of being on the computer and playing games all the time was cutting into "our time". She then told me to "get a life" and never wanted to see me again. She told me all of this on WoW. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me with a message that I had to pay $1 to see. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she found out I play video games. No, not that I play too many video games or have an addiction to video games. Just that I play them, period. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because he said the relationship was too tough for him. When I asked for an example, he responded, "Like, I don't have enough time to play World of Warcraft." FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me over the phone. He said there was someone else, and that he has been in love with her for a while. Turns out, the new girl was his online video game character. I got dumped for a video game. FML
Today, I tried to prove to my girlfriend how much I've matured and that our relationship comes before anything else in my life. So I went to delete my character in World of Warcraft. I tried to confirm it, but I couldn't, breaking down in tears instead. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because I was having an affair in The Elder Scrolls Online. While ranting to my online elf husband, he got upset that I had a real life boyfriend and dumped me too. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I canceled my Gamefly account. Seems that was the only thing keeping us together. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. He said it was because his online gaming friends don't like it when I ask him to spend time with me. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me via Twitter. FML

Ok, not everyone who plays WoW is a social reject. I play (on and off, when I feel like spending the money). But I do it as a HOBBY. Sometimes I read, sometimes I go out to dinner with friends, sometimes I hang out with my fiance, and sometimes I play WoW. Actually sometimes I play WoW with my fiance. Point is, not everyone who plays does so to the exclusion of real-world interaction. I have way more real world social time than WoW playing time. Also - WoW is not the problem here. If he had paid for her to take a martial arts class and she left him for a classmate, I don't think anyone would say "you deserve it for giving her the gift of something she enjoys doing."

I love how people are saying "Stop playing video games and get a life" or "Everyone who plays video games is fat and ugly". Personally, I think it's bullshit. If someone sits in their room and plays a guitar all day, that's fine, but God forbid someone actually enjoy video games. Seriously, just because you don't like something doesn't give you the right to talk shit about someone who does. What do YOU do that's so amazing? You sit on FML and try to look cool by hating on people you don't even know, soooo impressive! Also, telling someone over the internet to "get off the computer and get a life", is like being in a strip club and telling the guy next to you to stop staring at ******* and get out. You're a hypocrite. How are you going to tell someone else to get a life when you don't have one yourself? I ******* work all day, come home and play some games to unwind. Does that make me a fat, ugly, loser? No, it does not. I have friends, and I have a boyfriend, but I like to play games in my free time, so the **** what? I also like to do other things, but you can't always do other things when it's 3am, no one is awake, and there's nothing to do. Why don't you people think before you come out and say the stupid shit you say? You all FAIL IMHO.

Not saying this represents EVERYONE in the world, but everyone I've ever met who plays World of Warcraft is obsessed with the game to the point where very little else matters. I dated a boy once who played WoW. He would always blow off dates with me to sit at home in his mom's basement to play it. Then when I broke up with him he cried and couldn't figure out why I didn't wanna be with him anymore The moral of the story is: don't waste your time on a WoW player. They care more about the game than you.

Jerz, I don't play World of Warcraft myself, but I know quite a few girls that do, and none of them are socially awkward, obese OR hideous! It's pathetic how some people go by stereotypes... I highly doubt you've met all the girls who do play World of Warcraft anyway, Jerz.
