Married to a SERIOUS gamer :(
Relationship Stress / by lala013

...See more So, my husband and I have been married for 1 year. I knew he was a gamer before we married, but I didn't know that it would make me feel so lonely. He has his friends that he talks to when he is gaming and I am sitting there watching Netflix or doing something just to pass the time by myself. I get super lonely and sometimes it really depresses me! I don't live in the state where I am from so I don't have a lot of friends around to go and hang out with. I've tried talking to him about it and he goes through little patches where he only plays when I am not home, or only for a few hours if he knows I am doing something. But like I said, it's patches of him being considerate about it and the times that he doesn't he will go every single night until 2 or 3am and I just fall asleep alone, and am in the room alone... I have recently been trying to stay up later in the living room so we can go to bed together, but I always end up falling asleep on the couch and he just keeps playing and yelling into his head set. Then I wake up annoyed and go into the room STILL alone! It's really starting to get to me and I don't know what to do. I knew what I was getting into, I just didn't know how it was going to make me feel over time. Does anyone else have anything similar or any advice?
