Just some things I heard

[myfavoriteword]

so my ex ended up visiting my one of my best friends in dc this weekend. they're not friends but the two of them have mutual friends (who are also my friends) and they needed a place to crash because they were going to see a show in dc. from what my friend told me, she took the three of them to a bar in georgetown and they sat at some table and didn't socialize at all with any of her friends. she also talked to my ex a little and he told her that he spends most of his time now playing World Of Warcraft. in between classes, weekends, at night, etc... basically, i was dumped for a video game. i feel good and bad about this. good because he isn't doing ANYTHING and bad because...wtf, i was dumped for a video game.

it makes me sad because i see that he is just so...lame. i mean seriously, you're 22 years old. why don't you get off your a**, stop smoking pot and playing video games and DO something. it's disappointing. it makes this breakup easier on me because of the absolute necessity of us not being able to be together. i am going places and he is doing nothing. just sucks that i still see someone awesome hidden under all of his immaturity. he doesn't have any real problems, we were never jealous, never cheated, loved each other, made each other laugh. what it came down to was that he just wanted more time to do nothing. life is funny. maybe you will all think i am going about this the wrong way, but it gives me peace of mind that i don't have to worry about what he's doing anymore. i can go on about my life knowing that i am moving forward so much more than he is, and that let's me let go of some of the feelings i have. woo

In a way he is doing you a favor. He wants to waste his time playing video games... Kinda reminds me of my ex. It wasn't fun being in a relationship where sometimes I felt I had to fight against a silly game of call of duty in order to get a little bit of attention. I never really understood why there are people out there that do that. Yeah, I suppose gaming is a hobby but it doesn't really accomish anything productive unless your the one inventing them.

I don't mean to bash anyone, including him. After all there is more to him then just that he likes games. Games can be fun. But I agree that it does feel nice to know that youare doing more with your life. Games can be very numbing if all your time is spent on playing them.

That would be my job

I find it mind-boggling that there are guys who rather play games than be with their girlfriends. When I was playing a game and my ex came over, I just quit playing. She was way more important than gaming. She was a bit of a gamer her self. Sometimes we would play Mario Kart DS in multiplayer or play Super Mario on the super nintendo. Aah memories

Someone who thinks a game is more important than you doesn't deserve you. If he really plays that much there's a big chance he's addicted. WoW is know for being addicted. That's not healthy at all.
