Need ideas

Hey fellow guardians. I need some ideas of how to get my girlfriend to leave me alone when I'm trying to game. She hates FPS but seems to crave my attention as soon as I turn on my Xbox, PS, or vita. Any ideas or tips you have would be greatly appreciated (especially with the beta on the way). Did I mention she HATES FPSs. Guardian in Distress.

    My wife and I have been happily married for 5 years. We had this same problem when we were first married. Over time she would see me make sacrifices of time I could be spent gaming to be with her. It wasn't a quick or an easy process. One example is game night. I'm originally from England but I moved to America to be with my wife. Every Friday I play with my brother and buddies back home. There was a time when my wife was sad that I didn't spend that time with her. Now she will take our two kids out of the house to give me peace and quiet. The key was I cut down a few of my gaming hours elsewhere to carve out my block of time on Friday. Also randomly without her asking I would not attend game night and just hang out with her. Over time she realized it was important to me but she was more important. The key is if someone feels inferior to something or someone be it friends or activities they tend to become jealous of it and not want to share you with them/ it. I can't speak for every person or situation. But I would say look at ways to show her she's not competing. And if you want large undisturbed amounts of time maybe look at cutting back elsewhere. Anyhow good luck!
