Today, my boyfriend forgot to pick our son up from daycare. His excuse? Fighting in a battle in World of Warcraft was far more important and he had to stay absolutely focused. Our son had to wait for two hours. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to explain to my son that his dad was too busy in a raid on World of Warcraft to be at his award ceremony. FML
Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML
Today, I asked my dad to pick me up from school, he said he couldn't. Why? he was busy playing world of warcraft for the night. I got to walk the 3 hours home while my 49 year old dad played computer games. 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, my boyfriend refused to take me out on our three year anniversary because he was busy, "training to become a professional gamer." FML
Today, my boyfriend taught my son to do his chores. Not real chores, but "Runescape chores" on my boyfriend's account. My son won't pick up his toys or put his shoes away, but he'll jump on the computer to grow plants or cut trees or some other stupid shit. FML
Today, it became apparent that my boyfriend only showers when he levels up on World of Warcraft. FML
Today, my boyfriend forgot to pick me up from work. We work at the same place. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were arguing about how he was too busy for me. During that conversation, he was texting his best friend and then called by his brother to drive him home. Instead of returning to finish our conversation, he left to prepare for his fishing trip with his mates tomorrow. FML
Today, I realized that I'll have to explain to my child that mommy and daddy met on World of Warcraft. FML

My mom (who I no longer see thank god) forgot my sister and me at elementary school for 3 hours one day and it was one of scariest times of my life. Luckily my dad saw us waiting outside while driving by (my parents are divorced) and picked us up and took us to his house.. Thankfully he was at daycare and not just waiting outside. Sorry to hear about this! So sad. Kids are always #1 priority!

Ive only seen a very few defending him. Most of us, even though im an ex-wow player i still love it, hate that this manchild has done this because it gives us a bad name!

He's too young & stupid & immature for you.

You see rule number one with any raid or big fight............only do it if you have the time to set aside. Those who ignore this rule give mmo players a bad name.

Yesss thank you! Very first rule. Even before having enough potions, elixirs, and gold for repairs lol.

It seems like he has his priorities in order.

So I love how people instantly judge that games are to blame and what not. We are only hearing one side of this story. What if she said that she was picking the kid up so he figured he would play all day? What if she is just mad at him for something else and she decided to blame the game for that reason...seriously.

We're not blaming the game, we're blaming the guy.

Why isn't he your husband though?

Marriage is just a symbolic piece of paper; it means a lot to some people and absolutely nothing to others.

147- Probably because he does stupid things like this. Besides, not everyone wants to get married.

Sounds like you need to have a long talk with him about priorities

Your "boyfriend" is exactly that.. A boy.

I'm guessing that's why he's still your boyfriend and not your husband...
