The guy broke up with her. Over the phone. For a fictional woman. Why would you want to "be serious" with a guy who does that?

#40 lol. But honestly, that's weird. Does he not know that people in video games are fictional?

hahahahhahahahah sorry, just a little funny. don't take it personally. there are a couple of possibilities here: 1. he just needed an excuse to dump you 2. he actually thinks the video game character is better than you 3. he is a freak that actually falls in love with fictional characters. 2 is highly unlikely, and i'm betting on 3. be glad you got rid of that loser! find a new stud :)

I'm a girl that LOVES video games, but this is completely incomprehensible to me. Sounds more like an excuse to break up with you. Don't feel too bad. He just saved you the trouble of breaking up with him yourself once you realized that he's a loser.

This doesn't make sense, are you sure he doesn't mean someone he met over the video game?

LOL at everyone trying to psychoanalyse him or make sense of the situation, he obviously just wanted to dump you and has enough of a sense of humour/thinks your disposable enough to do it in a comical way

Something tells me we're only hearing half of the story. Besides, he's probably just lying to protect your feelings.
