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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was watching TV with my boyfriend, when a World of Warcraft commercial came on. He turned to me and said, "Yeah, I'd choose the Horde over you any day." 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, 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, it became apparent that my boyfriend only showers when he levels up on World of Warcraft. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. He said it was because he wanted to 'do his own thing'. So gaming 24/7 like he has for the past two years of our relationship, then. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me after 2 years of being together. The reason? I don't enjoy playing video games as much as he does. 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, after weeks of my yelling, my boyfriend finally listened and got a hobby. Instead of getting into something sensible like martial arts, he chose tabletop gaming. Now I have to listen to hours of boring stories about pretend fantasy worlds, and admit to everyone that my boyfriend is a nerd. FML
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
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

lol, in my opinion, the mark of a really caring partner is trying to be interested in what he's interested in. i started playing wow for my bf, and now i'm more into it than he is. she shoulda tried it before she freaked out, :P

Why can't he have both? My boyfriends was really into WoW, so I started playing too. Now I still play even though he is my ex. :p Gamer girls FTW.

You're definitely better off without him! You're either too demanding, not letting him play WoW as a hobby.. or he is addicted and you need to find someone who puts you before a video game. My boyfriend plays as well so I know it can be annoying to put up with.

WoW is better. It doesn't matter who you are.

Why would you EVER make a guy chose between you and a game? He is allowed to have a life apart from his girlfriend ya know. My guy's a gamer too and guess what he get me AND the game. YDI for sure!

I don't want to read through all these comments but I'm sure many of them tell you that WoW and other MMORPGs really do make us happier. People who have never been addicted to them will never understand. But still, it was a 5 year relationship, so OP deserves some credit. Just don't take it personally because [MMORPGs > significant others] for a large portion of players, not just you.
