Are you in the dog house yet?

Have to ask this question.

Has you Girlfriend/Fiancée/Wife got annoyed because you played the game a few nights in a row?

Last night when I got home I turned on the computer and got “The look”. Now when I get home tonight…. To turn on the PC or not to turn on the PC that is the question….

No worries here... My wife plays EQII also...

Yep...I am in the doghouse already.

Got the ole "are you ever gonna stop playing that game"comment just yesterday.......8)

lol, i was in the dog house last friday when i begged my wife to buy me eq 2, she knew i had a copy on order, coming but it was taking so long, and i didn't want to wait the weekend, and she knew i planned to use two accounts, i always do, 5 asheron's call accounts, 5 eq 1 accounts, and had 3 horizons accounts. only 1 asherons call account active, for rent payments, and 3 eq accounts prepaid a year, cool thought added eq 2 to them only $5 per month
anyways dog house becase 1 hour after we get home friday from buying the game UPS shows up with it. opps. she wasn't happy at all, plus UPS made me pay $35 duty, i'm so ticked by that here in canada the game instore cost me $70.00 , my preorder cost me in the end $140.00 doulble, but thats anoter posting. sony is in dog house for that one.
i do make time for wife everyday, i record tv shows on the computer so i can fast forword comursials, lol i can't remmeber how to spell that word, that long since i tried.

best thing for all of us to do is either get them to join us, get 2 computers. or take time for dinner and a movie or tv.
or be like me and buy a LCD monitor and put it on the coffee table and get a cordless keyboard and mouse or cord extentions, so use can sit on couch with the wife and watch tv and play at same time.
my wife watched me the first day she liked the voice overs from npc's.

so far i've only *coughhacksneeze*ed my way out of 1 date with the gf. i'm not sure i want to push my luck further, but all my friends are getting farther and farther ahead of me :(

I was never in the dog house with the wife, but I did get the looks of pity while playing FFXI. Finally, she said that she'd try out EQ2 with me - she didn't want to get into FF because I was too far into it. I really need to thank her for that some day BTW. :)

Anyhow, I think she might be more addicted than me now.

"Dear, I want to go to bed. I have to work tomorrow."

"No, I want to kill things!"

lol i was going to use the word spouce instead too, your right some wives play more then the guys too and could end up in the dog house. but some how us guys always loose the argument.
it's funny i'll get mad at my wife for something and some how i end up appologizing. any women out there willing to tell us your secret to doing that?

My girlfriend called in sick the last 2 days to stay home and play......i guess this doesnt refer to me....

I have been kind of in the dog house. I have fully warned my wife for the last few months that when EQ2 came out I would be spending a great deal of time on it and she seemed ok with it, but now that it's here she makes me feel guilty for playing and not hanging out with her. Luckily she does go to bed a few hours before I do so that gives me that time to play without interruption. Those that have wives that play you don't know how lucky you are......

Only have one foot in the doghouse at the moment. My wife said last night that she likes me playing this better than FFXI because I'm not constantly angry anymore. I never noticed, but she said I was always pissed off when I was playing FF. Give it time, though; I'm sure she'll start hating this game, too...

Being single has some advantages...

Although right now if I wasn't single, I think I'd have to risk getting in trouble just to play.

No dog house here. My husband and I play EQ1 and EQ2 together. So neither of us have anything to complain about. We sit close enough together to see each other and chat without screaming across the room, and we both get our fix.


To all you married couples out there, get your spouse to play somehow!!!!!!!! It makes ALL the difference in the world!
(use the last ditch effort card "but it means we can spend quality time together if you just tried it")

My wife always says she doesn't mind me playing.
But I've found if my gameplay extends more than 20-30 minutes at a time... Anymore than that and I get the "boo boo lip" I'm hurt look.

I hardly ever get to play during the work week, instead I must wait for Fri. and Sat. after she goes to sleep (usually midnight) to get my 1 or 2 hours of play in.


For those who have partners that play games, I'm envious!
