If you secretly play WoW during work, you’ve got a serious addition problem. Your wife is right to be concerned.

What’s more important?

  1. WoW
    or
  2. Your job and your wife

If you realize that it should not be 1. then go cold turkey on WoW and get some addition therapy.

This is an easy one. Bye bye wife :smile:

If she does not love you she will leave you. Hard truth. She is using wow as an excuse.
Take care of your own life and be truth to yourself.
I hope you find your way. And i hope for your wife that she will find her way aswell.

I don’t know if this is real or just trolling but I had a partner who made me quit WoW over fear to lose her. I missed the whole wrath and cata expansion.
The moment we split up I bought MoP and the rest is history :blush:

I read on your post , it seem that there is a disrespect of her to your hoby and you to your work . you must work in your place of work , it is very important . To be caught in gaming while you are paid for work is very disrespectful , there are thousands if not million who wants to do your job if you don’t wish to do it . It seem disrespectful to those that can not gain work , although trying all their best to learn a skill , language , connection , because of the location not a lot around , and learning to use intertnet or not many access . it seem that your marraige does not have the joys , for you either , the game addiction it is a serious problem but you shall enjoy your time in home after you have tended to all responsibilities of husband and perhaps father . Very important , after . Do not leave on your wife , if she wants the time with you but you choose WoW over her then it is a reasonable thing to get a divorce . but she shall respect your time as well , it is important for the partner to respect each other and that include give them time to game quiet and peaceful , if they have met all responsibilities well and spent time already with family .

If someone, even a spouse, is trying to tell you that you shouldn’t be doing that kind of hobby at your age… that person isn’t good for you in the long term.

I mean… if you get home from work, go to the PC, play WoW, expect food to be delivered to your desk, finish WoW, go to bed - she’s a right to be upset. But if you’re trying to schedule an hour or two per night, then that’s entirely legit and reasonable.

Tbh it sounds like your wife might be lacking a hobby, so she expects you to just be present with her 100% of the time. That’s unfair. You can’t be someone else’s hobby, or can they be yours.

But I don’t know how to fix this and I’ve never had any success at getting people started on things. If someone is unwilling to find their own interests and passtimes, they’re going to spend their whole life bored and flapping their arms.

I know quite a few people who do. It’s not necessarily a sign of addiction, it’s often just being left idle, and either without enough information about their long term goals to be able to spin up new activities on their own initiative, or no actual benefit from keeping themselves busy. Knowing what’s good for the company doesn’t make people put in the effort to do it if there’s no performance-related bonus.

What I read here is that partners who can’t appreciate your hobbies aren’t right for you in the long run anyway?

I feel sorry for you OP but honestly… I know you care for her. But you can’t be ontop of each other 24/7 in a relationship devoting every minute of the hour to each other… I don’t think thats how it works. …It’s sad that your wife reacts like this towards what you do in your freetime.

I am a forever alone gamer but, I imagine in a healthy relationship there is a time for cuddles and movies and each other. And a time for your own space and freetime.

Personally I could never handle a partner that required attention and my whole day dedicated to only her. But thats just me. It would feel a little overwhelming.

The struggle.

^this has pretty much summed up this entire thread. Im quite lucky thay my missus dont mind me playing WoW for a couple of hours in the afternoon and again at night. In fact, she often watches me and asks various questions on parts.

Her psychiatrist recommended the game years ago, but she never bothered with it. Shes happy playing mario kart

More the fact you’re playing it constantly therefore addicted

Im with the wife on this one

I’m sorry but did i miss out on something? How do we know he plays constantly?

I see he did a Thorgast run but…

There’s always 2 sides to every story

I’m thinking he’s not telling the whole story here

Your assuming though :stuck_out_tongue: But fair enough…

Feels like this is a AITA reddit moment and we need the wife to come in with her side of the story in that case xP

talking about his wife, so correct

Exactly sounds like she’s just being unreasonable or more going on then you know. Feel like most adults wouldn’t have a problem if your able to balance your gameplay and life responsibilities
