Have a nice day ahead..
Cheers!!
video games are similar to internet chat. They're both addictive. I've been reading you post and the thing that kept cropping up in my mind was this. Why are you sitting around home waiting on him to do something you want. Grab a girlfriend and go to the movies, create a social circle that improves your life. Amazingly enough, it captures their attention if you're living and they're not. Now, don't get me wrong, i'm not suggesting a friday night with the girls in a singles bar. I'm talking about something that sounds fun, entertaining and might also interest him. If he's like most typical guys, they hate missing out on something that other people enjoy. How about a cook out at one your friends house that he also enjoys being around. Gear up some entertainment and activities.
I understand how you feel and i understand how your husband feels. I've been on both side of the fence. I just don't think people take enough action to correct the problem that is solved by video games. Just a thought
