At some point yes. There was a time when my boyfriend called me and asked me to visit his place and I declined and told him that I am working on something. He was like, are you doing some creepy stuff again in your computer? and so as he always caught me in it, I just answered "yes". And he was like are you crazy? and I answered back "yes I am" and he hung up. Hehehe..But later that night, I realized it was my mistake and so I had decided to come to his place.

Nope. I don't have a love life. But, I understand that this is becoming a problem and an obsession for some. I owuld be offended. This person may not be interested in anyone but themselves. Time has to always be set aside for love ones and children. It's called making them a priority in your life.

If you ask my boyfriend this question, he would say yes. he is always saying that I care more about the computer than him. He always jokes about it with me. I do find time to be with him, so I think computer time and your love life can fixed if both sides are willing to try. Maybe you can talk him into having special time with you before he gets on the computer.

Hello, Im sure if i allowed it my husband would also take his laptop to bed,but really we are both on the internet the same so if we wantt to do something together we both have to get off the internet. I beliee i would draw the line with him wakeing me up after I had fallen asleep.
Good luck.

I said I am working on my computer. And he was like, doing some creepy stuff again? what are you crazy? and I answered him "yes I am!". He hung up.hehe..But later that day, I decided and still went to his place.
