I need to vent. My fiance LOVES to play XBox online with his friends. We can be snuggling on the couch, one of his friends will call and before I know it, he's using the TV playing his freaking game with his friends who have nothing better to do. FOR HOURS ON END. It's cutting into our cozy couple time! I feel like such a nag for complaining, but I feel like saying, get a life! I hate it.

Not yet, but I just bought him an atari 7800 (he's into old kitsch like that)...so I hope he doesn't start!

I'm so glad I'm not alone- I thought I was the only woman with a man (34 year old man, nonetheless) with a video game habit. It's good to each have something you enjoy on your own (I love to read, for example) so you don't have to do EVERYTHING together. Please, between XBox, fantasy football, fantasy baseball, fantasy hockey, I'm lucky he pencils me in!
