Today, I tried to prove to my girlfriend how much I've matured and that our relationship comes before anything else in my life. So I went to delete my character in World of Warcraft. I tried to confirm it, but I couldn't, breaking down in tears instead. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she met someone else on World of Warcraft. I've been paying for her subscription. 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, I got bored and decided to try World Of Warcraft. 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 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, I realized that I'll have to explain to my child that mommy and daddy met on World of Warcraft. FML
Today, several family members, including my mum, deleted me from Facebook in a concerted show of contempt. Apparently, I just can't shut up about World of Warcraft. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because I was having an affair in The Elder Scrolls Online. While ranting to my online elf husband, he got upset that I had a real life boyfriend and dumped me too. FML
Today, I was feeling proud of myself because I finally quit World Of Warcraft. I later found out about the gift my dad's family gave me. It was a 12-month subscription to World Of Warcraft. FML
Today, I found myself crying for an hour when my recreated crush on The Sims 3 game rejected my character and ran off with someone else. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It's always a hard life for us video gamers. I empathize OP.

**** that! You shouldn't have to delete anything you don't want to man! If she can't accept that you play WOW or any other video game, she doesn't love you for who you are. Live your life how you want to! Not how she thinks it should be lived

Its about finding a balance. If you were willing to try thats a really good thing. You shouldnt have to quite playing altogether. Just make sure you make time for both your girlfriend and the game.

Quitting that game doesn't come easy…

If you're with someone who makes you feel like you need to compromise the things that matter to you, then you should probably do some thinking. Relationships aren't meant to change people, they're meant to unite two people who are better together than apart; celebrating their differences and individual interests.

You can have both if you can balance them well, give her some attention and then later play your game. If she doesn't like that, she's a bit self-centered and you should rethink what your relationship is worth.

Good work OP. Shouldn't get rid of a hobby just to make the misses happy. Just make sure she comes first and WOW a distant second.

What the girl doesn't know can't hurt her. Keep the account bud

Oh, **** that. Unless you're playing WoW every second of everyday, there is no way that you should be expected to give it up completely just because your girlfriend thinks you should. If you are playing excessively, then yeah cut down on it. But if it's your hobby then you should enjoy said hobby without having to feel like you're putting your relationship at risk.
