Destiny may cause divorce
Ok I know that it is probably ridiculous to air your "dirty laundry" on the internet but I am in dire need of suggestions answers, or counseling lol. I have been playing video games since 1979 and my wife knows my number one hobby is video games, I work a lot of hours and have a stressful job as I manage six different businesses in ONE office by myself! That being said I "unwind" of an evening by playing destiny.
Let me get to the point here folks so your not snoring at the end of my whining heh. I joined a group that were trying to play through the vault of glass and she overheard a female voice on my headset and completely flipped out on me. "now you have a girlfriend to play games with you I hope your happy" was her statement. And continued to badger me so I had to turn my MIC off so the other players couldn't hear her yelling at me. I was extremely embarrassed because I know the other players heard the first part of her yelling. As a side note I have been with her for eleven years and we two kids together, and no I have never cheated on her EVER I have morals. So she has no reason to distrust me. She now checks to see if I am talking with a female on the headset every time she walks into the room, I then offer to hand her the MIC to check. I feel like I am not supposed to even do what I have done for 35+ years which is play games and destiny requires you to have other members play along side you in missions and or strikes, have even explained to her I needed a group of six players along for the VOG so I am at a loss here. Am I doing something wrong by playing with females on a damn video game? I don't think so!
Any thoughts advice you can give me (male or female) is greatly appreciated...
Many thanks for your time!

If you get to this post then know there are many with this issue at hand, maybe not as extreme as divorce but definitely angry wives surrounding Destiny players. I do think because of this it can be informative to post here and receive help on the other if none of these posts help you at least you know your not alone or have ppl that understand your situation. Any negative feedback just ignore. I've been playing since the 20th of September everyday when I get a chance. So I'm starting to get the stink eye when my lady comes home n finds me on Destiny, or when we go lay down n I'm logging into Destiny. One thing I know is they will never fully understand us and we shall never fully understand them. All we can do is try to meet in the middle. My situation is a lil different from yours due to the fact that there is no girl factor for me she just hates me playing right now. I don't see the need for jealousy here but if that's how she feels it's not gonna go away until the issue is resolved and she finds reason and understanding with you, which may take some work on your end. Women are mysterious creatures... I say mysterious to be polite lol. They will ask us to stop everything we r doing to spend time with then but then they don't want to do anything, ask us to put down a video game to hold them just so they can fall asleep on us, or ignore us constantly doing things they like for ex: read a book n not spend time with you but the moment u pick up a game n provide the same standard of treatment they wanna complain. My advise be firm but non combative, listen to how she feels and in return explain how you feel and ask questions like how you can come to a solution where both of you are happy and agree upon. Females and males play the game alike so your bound to run into them. I wish you well and hope you both come to terms.
