my husband is addicted to online games. he spent most of his time playing special forces in the internet. at first it was okay but as days pass by i can't explain what i feel about it. i get irritated seeing him in front of the PC. i feel that the game is getting the time that's supposedly mine. i can hardly talk to my husband because he's too focused on the game and I'm afraid that sooner or later we'll have communication gap. i don't know if this sounds funny to you guys, I'm wondering if there's such thing as jealousy over online games? what am i suppose to do? please help! SOS!

funny to the point you get jealous on Online games, nowadays modern past times for guys is electronic games from stress days of work, try to stay with him sat besides him if ever he's on PC, you could chat while his playing. hope this could help you

thanks for your advice i appreciate it but the way i look at it my husband is not just playing online games for past time. because when you say past time its only a short time or let's say 1-2 hours of your spare time. with my husband its the other way around spending time or talking to me would be his past time and rest of his time is allotted to his game. i always observe him and these is what he do, when he wakes up in the morning he right away open th pc and start to play for 30mins-1hr before going to work, when he got home after having our dinner its time for him to play again. during weekends like on saturdays he will play from 7pm-12am or even more, during sundays he will start playing by 8am-11-am then play again 1pm-6pm then in the evening 7pm-11pm. you think playing online game is just his past time?

ya your right indeed its not a past time, but have you encounter other people playing pc games, they almost live infront of the pc even without meals.

so that makes them an addicts too. it's ok to play as long as you know your limitation and know that you still have other things to do not only gaming, be productive.

haha, i am a gamer too and my wife is fine with it rather than me going out for a drink with friends and not knowing what i would do behind her back. haha. she would rather see me at home and within her sight so she has no complaint and would rather i spend all my times in front of the PC. she would sit beside me when she want a chat or read her books and magazine in the room with me on the bed so we are fine with what we are doing

i know, maybe i'm just too sensitive. but i'm getting used to it now. i've tried to look for other things to do rather than looking at him while his playing online games. thanks for responding.

It was an issue before for me and my partner.I don't mind him playing online games esp.at night but I would be very mad at him if after spending 3hrs in front of the pc and he would decide to make love at 10pm/11pm I'll be very furious bec.I have to wake up early the following day bec. I have to go to work at 6am.Sleep is really important for me.
