Well i gave my boyfriend an ultimatum

Never had this problem since I picked it up after the last failed relationship. I quit after so much PvP (by rank) play and PvE raid play. It just lost its charm. Might go back, but its not as attractive as it once was. I still have fun looking at the WoW forums and making bogus talent trees, items and spells using websites. Funny stuff. Even with new info, I'm not as inticed to play as I was before.

picking a best response to soon isint a to good idea you will lose a lot of responses that way...anyway nop it kind of gets boring after a while and i never really got hookt on the thing if i had to chose between my gf and the game i would probbaly stop playing :) but he seems like he likes the game a lot so i sugest get a compromise and work things out

I never got to that point when I was playing WOW. I nearly did. I was probably a week or two away from my wife doing the same thing. Fortunately I was wise enough to see the signs early enough to not fully piss her off. I have quit the game completely at this point and have been WOW sober for over 6 months.

I've been on both ends of that dilemma. It's a balancing act between which is more important the game, whether its WOW or something else, or the people in your life. I've always chosen people over game. The game will be there in one form or another for me to play later. However, I haven't been important enough to others for them to chose me or time with me over the game. So I'm really glad your boyfriend has some sense.

hey you first need too know the nature of your boyfriend that if he isn't flirting you. than know his behaviour !!

Ultimatums are generally not good for relationsships and should be avoided when possible. It would have been wiser to reason with him and find a middle way - maybe the one you ended up with now. Of course he should care for you when you are with him, but it's not reasonable to ask him to just give up WoW entirely. It's a very social game and he might very well have many good friends in the WoW universe. In that case it's like asking him to give up a whole bunch of friends for you, and that's not very nice.

My husband and I have both had those times when we were way too addicted to WoW. When I was pregnant I was having seizures, and I was out of work for a long time, and I played way too much. Some days I would be playing when he came home from work and went to bed, and then still playing when he got up, and he'd be like "Do something else!" =p These days I don't really play WoW much, but my hubby still does. He's very good about it though. If he's playing and I ask him to stop, he will. =)

No, actually, both I and my boyfriend play the game. I'll admit, I think he's a little too into the game. He once had me stay up with him until 5 a.m (we had school at 8 a.m) so we could finish a quest to get an epic mount. When I complained, he got touchy. In retrospect, though, I can understand why. He did a lot of work so that he and I could just walk in and get our mounts. Sometimes people take their games too seriously. It's important to point this out, so that they can tone it down a bit. WoW can be a fun game, but when it cuts into your life in places it shouldn't, it's time for a break. The same goes for any other game or habit. That said, I like WoW, but not enough to play for more than a few hours a day, so it doesn't effect my personal life much.

No. It could feel very bad to be boy, between choise. Girl or game. I could choose girl, if i would have one. I had lot of internet relationships, but that's really different thing. Sucks, and very much :( So, be hard with your boyfriend. Hopely he'll stop WOW after too much raiding and getting 80 lvl (Update for it, coming?)

You can share it with you boyfriend. wii(nintendo) would be a good choice.(new TV game ).
