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
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
Moody blues
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
No chicks in the Man Cave
Today, I went into my husband's man cave to ask him a question. He was blasting a song about being an unemployed single loser, singing along, and playing video games. What the fuck did I marry? FML
Thanks for the support
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
Red flag
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

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.

Walk straight back out again. Don't put up with his shit. Return once he apologizes.

-sniff sniff- I smell an overreaction.

If I was your boyfriend I'd be waiting for you to apologize after overreacting because in the heat of a moment, I let the game talk slip into conversation. I'd also be annoyed you interrupted my game.

31 - how did OP overreact? It doesn't say anything about her reaction. My husband plays video games, if I wasn't allowed to speak to him while he was playing or had to apologize for interrupting him, we would have a HUGE problem. Video games shouldn't come before real life relationships.

97- sorry I didn't tag that I was replying to 15, I thought that much was obvious. Plus there was a dash of sarcasm.

That's funny boofgall because I smell a single woman mixed in with that overreaction smell.

Wow Deadbeat boyfriend much?
boofgall 16
Why, because he games? Sorry but you're wrong.

Actually husband. So technically ex-boyfriend.

no dumbass because either he told her to 'die' or he just completely ignored her. thats pathetic.

59- Are you implying that you've never been caught up and focused on something that you didn't hear someone else? If you say no, you're totally lying. It happens.

59-It's not pathetic to be so involved in something that it takes all your attention. What's pathetic is your lack of proper grammar and punctuation. Not to mention your use of unnecessary derogatory terms, which makes your argument hard to agree with. Just jumping into an attack on someone because they have a different opinion or way of things isn't the way a working society conducts itself. In my opinion people like you start more fights and problems than they solve.

but he didn't ignore her he told her to go die that's not right no matter what the situation is

If you'll take the time to read the other comments, you'll know that his "Why won't you DIE" remark wasn't aimed, nor intended for OP in the slightest.

He was talking to the game noob. Get over it.

I would say he was talking to the game but he was playing Dance Dance Revolution.
boofgall 16
And how do you know this?

I'm OPs neighbor.

Of course it's humor. I am about 5k miles from Helsinki.

*Something much funnier and original than 90% of the previous commenters who simply reposted the first comments idea or said the obvious "he's a bad boyfriend" comments* come on people.

Okay?! That's scary! Maybe it's time to move on. Try to find out if he really feels that way. If he does, you could be in danger! Ordinary guys kill their wives everyday! I say get out!

Oh my god. -facepalm-
