Will start by saying that DH has a great job that he works hard and does well at. Very involved with the kids. Helps me out with things I need all the time. He’s a great husband and father.
So I can’t decide if I’m being unreasonable… but I think he spends too much time gaming and not enough time on his health.
If I talk about it with him, he dismisses it so don’t know if I am being unreasonable or not.
He works from home, I work part time. When I go into his office, he sometimes switches from a game to his work so I won’t see. So I’d say he spends about an hour or two of his work day gaming each day. Like I said, he works very hard at his job, is self employed, is doing really well. He will often keep working until 8pm with small breaks to have dinner, play with the kids, probably to make up for gaming time and also school pickup time (which he does when I’m at work).
Then EVERY night, when the kids go to bed, he plays video games from 9pm until 11ish, sometimes 1am (1am is about once a week, and when he’s playing online with a friend). He doesn’t watch tv - so this is what a lot of people do but watching tv, so I can’t decide if this is unreasonable or not…
The only exercise he does is one daily dog walk for 30 mins (I take the dog out separately also).
Sometimes, if he doesn’t walk the dog that day because the dog and I have been out for a long time, he doesn’t leave the house at all.
He plays PC games not an Xbox etc.
But he’s 50 and I worry about his future health and lack of sleep etc.
I know it’s his hobby and is “harmless”, but if one of our teens did this much gaming, we would put a stop to it!
What do you all think?
