I want to have sex, but he wants to play poker online..i came almost naked and he only says " wait, im playing" ..i go to bed and woke up at morning with him still playing online.. Ok hes 23 and I`m 22. we have two babies.

it`s driving me nuts!!!!!!!!!

Its been a year of this kind of stuff, hes an adict..and the more he dosen`t pay me attention, the more I want it and need it.

I`m so depressed.

I think I'd be more concerned if he's constantly playing because may be he is gambling and losing. He may be so stressed out about it and that's why he isn't interested in you at the moment.

Just have a think about this first.
as you are saying he is addicted to poker you learn to play poker then offer him a game of strip pokerGrin
Maybe this way you are combining his favorite thing plus you will also get some attentionGrin

He's 23 and doesn't want sex? He MUST be addicted to poker then. Not good.

Dh is also hooked on the poker but i think sex is the only thing that would drag him away, keep trying helix im sure he will give in soon. I tell dh that i will take the modem away when he's out so he cant play anymore.
Is he loosing or winning?

is he ever on for it? would walking away next time he's erm, at the gagging for it stage, teach him a lesson? or would it just make things worse?

its more about online addiction than sex. he has too much time on his hands
