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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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?

I have never played that game but I can tell you, no woman will win an ultimatum with WOW. If you have to make that ultimatum, you've already lost.

First off I played WoW pretty hard core up to about 3 weeks ago, and anyone who compares it too a drug is a simple minded idiot. That being said choose the girl over WoW 3.2 gonna kill the game anyway.

You totally deserve that one. I'm the one that got my husband into wow, and now that he plays it more than I do I don't try and get him to give it up. It's something he enjoys and helps him deal with stress. Maybe you should learn to be less of a bitch and try the game out yourself.

WoW is serious business i can understand why he would choose wow, it doenst yell at him or give him stupid ultimatums, and its a lot cheaper too

When are we going to loose the "ugly 40 y.o. virgin that lives in his mom's basement and plays video games" stereotype? There are people of all walks of life that play - young and old, single and married.. I consider myself a rather attractive guy, and I have a loving stable relationship with a very hot girl. She will never ask me to choose between WoW and her because she loves me for what I am and I like to play video games. YDI, shallow brat.

True, I've brought my boyfriend WoW subscription as part of his birthday present. He plays it all a lot, I should know we live together. I used to get annoyed, but now I understand it's just something to past th time, like me facebooking or watching crappy t.v. :) He stil has time to have a 'normal' life. YDI for giving an ultimation. What did you really xpect??

Ha ha, seriously a YDI. This is like giving a girl an ultimatum to stop shopping. You're probably a real bitch though. If he spent the same amount of time being a professional >insert 'cool' hobby< player, I bet you wouldn't give him this ultimatum

Why would you make him choose? If I had a boyfriend who tried to make me choose something I enjoyed over him, I'd get rid of him. Now, if he's constantly playing WoW and does nothing else, you need to have a talk with him about it. But you NEVER give ultimatums.
