Ive been married 16 years to a gamer, we have teen dc who pretty much do their own thing now but the thing is dh likes to come home from work and game, always has, I thought he'd grow out of it as his friends don't game anymore, he doesn't go out, doesn't see his friends, just games and he gets angry and frustrated while playing and only comes off an hour before bed to watch telly while he eats.
I feel like we live different lives, he says he can talk to me and play but with no telly available I just end up texting or calling friends and family to fill the space.
His anger is starting to come into other areas of life and his patients is next to nothing, he's constantly frustrated and angry regardless if he's gaming or not.
He seems to fly off the handle at the slightest thing and get tetchy about everything, is there any hope?
I've never been a gamer but even if I was he prefers to play on his own but the stress it's causing him, I wonder why he continues, I also wonder what the neighbours think when he starts shouting at the screen.
He's 37.
