Does the fact that I can't sleep when my husband plays xbox or talks to people all night mean that I'm Imature?

So I can't sleep when my husband is in our room playing games like Call of Duty all night long, with all the shooting and talking on the mic. He doesn't understand that the sounds of war are not exactly the easiest thing to fall asleep to, neither is him speaking to other people he's playing with. I wouldn't mind if he were playing it in the living room, but we don't have an ethernet cord out there, so he's in here and I hate sleeping on the couch because he's playing video games and losing lots of sleep.

He says that if I was mature I'd be able to sleep while he plays.

Tell me what you think... does not being able to sleep when he's playing xbox make me immature?

HAHAHAHA ashleen you think like me! dh was driving me nuts one night playing one of his war games (i'm a fable, fable 2 and soon to be fable 3 player only...i'm lame i know) so i started making inappropriate noises. farting, the "poop" grunt, going "OMG what did you do in the bathroom!!!" and other embarrassing noises. lol. he was REALLY REALLY mad at me...but got the hint. (of course that was after he had been playing for 5 1/2 hours....)

Okay, I only know this because I have older nephews (my boys are still little)-------  Xbox can be played at home with one person and they talk to other people at their houses.  Who knew???  I just learned this over Christmas time and couldn't understand how they do it.  It is like fax machines--------  don't get how they work!!

However, my nephew has rules and limits as to how much he is able to play video games.  Might be a good idea for husband????.......  Just a thought? . . .

if the bathroom was close, I'd just go in there and start flushing away...make some really gross noises...really embarrass DH. or maybe "honey did you pee the bed again last night?? there's a huge wet spot on your side!!!" while he's playing....but see I'm diabolical. I have no problem embarrassing DH and he has no problem embarrassing me, lol.

julie..with xbox live you can't see the other people. you talk through a mic that's hooked to the controller (yes dh and i do have xbox live for when we get the rare moment to play IN THE LIVING ROOM NOT the bedroom). so if she has to get up nobody can see her. just hear. (if the bathroom is close to the bedroom)
