Today, my husband quit his job as a university professor and picked up the graveyard shift at a rat farm so he could have more time during the day to play World of Warcraft. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML
Today, I realized that my husband has a video games addiction. I am currently pregnant; he brought us to the same country he's in so we can finally live together, only for me to witness him being glued to his laptop all day and all night playing WoW. He's forgotten I even existed. FML
Today, I gave the option to my boyfriend of 5 years to either quit World of Warcraft of lose me. He said WOW makes him happier. FML
Today, my boss, mentor, and gaming buddy, has officially quit. Turns out even he doesn't get paid enough to deal with this bullshit. FML
Today, my husband had confessed that we couldn't go on a vacation this spring because he was out of vacation time. He took two weeks off and pretended to go to work, then came home once I'd left. Another woman? No, some stupid shit in his video game called "Runescape Leagues." FML
Today, I had to explain to my son that his dad was too busy in a raid on World of Warcraft to be at his award ceremony. FML
Today, it became apparent that my boyfriend only showers when he levels up on World of Warcraft. FML
Today, my husband decided he was finally going to quit his job. We literally bought a house last week. His job is/was easy, with pay way above his qualifications. After we'd talked about it FOR THE 50TH TIME, he did the opposite and texted the dept. head that he hates the company and wants to be part time at most. FML
Today, my boyfriend forgot to pick our son up from daycare. His excuse? Fighting in a battle in World of Warcraft was far more important and he had to stay absolutely focused. Our son had to wait for two hours. 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

Are you sure he wasn't fired from his day job? Ask around.

I lived with a boyfriend that played wow. He would come home from work and be on the computer from 5pm until 1am every night. He couldn't even stop playing for 5 minutes to help me carry in the groceries. It ruined our relationship. Now I'm in a relationship with a guy who plays x-box and evony with any free time he gets (mind you when we got together he assured me that gaming would never be an issue). Unless you can find a significant other that enjoys putting life aside for games as much as you, you probably shouldn't try to have a relationship, or kids for that matter.

Wow. Just wow. Refuse to have sex with him until he's earning 30k or over ha.

Ydi. Next time find a man who likes Guild Wars instead.

I met my spouse on WoW 6 years ago, and we still play together. You should do recruit a friend with him, OP! Remember, the couple that raids together stays together!

Every game with a goal and destination is addicting. There is just a LOT of shit to do. There are lots of people who play with moderation (myself included) without losing track of what really matters in life. Op needs to talk to her husband and get him help, because it seems he has lost track of priorities in life.

Find out his log-in info for the game then go on when he is at work and violate all the terms of use repeatedly till he gets banned permanently. If you can't get him banned give away all his wow items and money then have his character fight a dragon bare handed.
