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

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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Why would you give him that kind of ultimatum? You shouldn't be with a guy that you want to change.

Wow.... I hope you held up to your deal and left him. I'm assuming you've tried talking to him about it before?

You're better off without him. Find a guy who appreciates human beings.

YDI. If he was a gamer when you got with him, then you shouldn't expect anything different. Maybe you should try to play the game with him - join in instead of giving ultimatums. My guy and I both play WoW together - it actually is a great part of our relationship.

I agree; Giving ultimatums to a gamer wouldn't really help. My boyfriend and I both play RuneScape together, and it's not all too bad.

Agreed- my husband and I play WoW together and have alot of fun. Give it a try before you knock it- or atleast find a compromise instead of saying its all or nothing.

YDI. You demanded he choose. He did what you asked. Don't demand shit and whine when you get what you requested.

If you gave me the same Ultimatum I'd choose WoW too, and I dont even play it.

This. It's not the WOW, it's the ultimatums.

ya, giving him the ultimatum made you lose...

I feel for you, but YDI for two reasons: One, ultimatum. Two, for being stupid enough to take up with someone with a WoW habit. WoW has the ability to ruin anybody more than drugs do. You should have known better.

Are you retarded? WoW is more dangerous than drugs? Really? I mean addiction is addiction, but playing too much WoW isn't going to cause you to overdose and die. I wish people would at least act like they have a brain when they post on this site.

@sovereign WoW is much more dangerous than drugs. It consumes your entire life. Once you're hooked you can easily spend 6+ hours a day just playing WoW. If you don't fully understand just how addictive this game is you shouldn't be commenting like you know something.

Umm,well some people DO die from playing too much WOW. For an example,a man from South Korea played it 50 hours straight.Then died from dehydration and starvation. Some people go crazy over it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YersIyzsOpc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka8AcYwDCok&feature=related

That's stupidity. Stupidity can be fatal, indeed.
