Today, my wife made a system where I earn gaming time by either giving her money or doing her favors. Now whenever I use my phone, she accuses me of "secretly playing Xbox games" and gets pissed at me. I'm 28 years-old. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my wife refuses to let me play my Xbox, except at the weekends, because it’s "a childish waste of time" and "we need to spend more time together", yet when we’re together she has no problem spending hours on games on her phone. No, she does not see the irony in this either. FML
Today, I learned that my wife lets our son play video games while I'm at work to "keep him out of her hair." We had agreed that he was forbidden from gaming until his grades came up, but apparently she can't be bothered to actually parent. FML
Today, my wife is mad at me because she claims I don’t spend any time bonding with her son. It’s as though she refuses to understand that just because we are in different rooms, on separate PlayStations, doesn’t mean we’re not playing the same game, and talking through headphones for hours at a time. FML
Today, I spent some of my pay on a birthday gift for my wife. She found out about the money going missing from our account, and now she thinks I'm having an affair. I work 24/7 and barely have time to see my friends, let alone have an affair. FML
Today, my wife bitched me out 3 times in a row, for things that were not even my fault: for turning my Xbox on, even though I only nudged the button accidentally with my toe; opening a beer when it was actually a Pepsi for our son, and walking loudly when I "know she has a headache," which I didn’t. FML
Today, I found out that my 43 year-old wife has been having a cyber relationship with a 14 year-old kid on Halo. FML
Today, I was savagely beating my wife on Call of Duty, since she demanded that I play normally and not hold back. 15 minutes later, she was raging at me, calling me a bastard and saying she wished we'd never married. FML
Today, my girlfriend likes playing games on her phone more than she likes me. FML
Today, my girlfriend destroyed my Xbox, because somewhere in her psycho brain she actually thought it would get me to pay more attention to her, even though I only play 3 hours on a Sunday. Joke's on her, I bought a new one, she’s back on the streets, and I play it a whole lot more now. FML
Today, my wife says she's not hiding money from me but I checked our joint bank account, which I no longer use, and find she's been transferring money in-and-out of 3 accounts, while taking money from me and getting payday loans to cover it. FML

Did she also make a sex rewards chart?

That's ******. I would get annoyed if my husband was always playing video games over doing work around the house or spending time with me.. But he doesn't do that, so I don't care how he chooses to spend his recreational time.

I'm sorry OP, not for your girlfriend putting you on a rewards system but for you not having balls and letting her train you like a good little puppy. for money... SMH. as I stated before, if I acted like a psychotic controlling **** I'd hope he'd be a man and stand up to me like a big boy. I'm glad I have a loving relationship. we've been and lived together for 2 years and we still enjoy each others company. I can't believe these girls on FML that treat their boyfriends like a pet. I couldn't do that to my boyfriend/best friend/the person you're supposed to love. why be with someone if you/they have to treat you that way...

Maybe you should pay more attention to your wife instead of playing video games all the time. YDI

then she would tell him to pay attention to her not ask for money.

If you actually fellow her system instead of putting your foot down then you're sending her the message that she can Control you.

wow if the roles were switched everyone would be notching "u don't need him, beer independent, dump his ass" well I hope you put a stop to it... I wouldn't be able to stand my gf if she did that...

I wish there was a way I could earn fun time. I'm basically not allowed to do anything, or go anywhere. Then she wonders why I sit at home and drink.

you probably are on too much and not pulling your weight around the house.There are two sides to every story
