Thanks for the support. Too much negativity.
The negativity is too strong. Thanks for the positive feedback. Honestly didn't think i'd get this many responses.

Sooner or later you'll have a decision to make. Only you can make this decision, as only you know what you truly want. Or you can try to compromise. I give no thought to PTSD or any other disorder as I don't understand them wholly.

Well, does playing destiny interfere or prevent you from doing things you want to? If not then its not a problem. Be warned though of the posts from the liberal keyboard call of duty SGM major davis airborne ranger on seal team delta people. They have no clue what on the f they are talking about and have drank way too much of the liberal left kool aid. In combat in the Stan and sandbox, there is no respawn. And you don't press x to pay your respect at a funeral. I'd find another outlet to discuss the kind of questions you ask and because of said population might not know what its like to over there with only a rifle and the people to your left and right to stay alive. I'd find a group of people like yourself who have similar experiences to talk about this with. Just my .o2 cents.

it's a gaming forum not jerry springer!!

I wouldn't say you're in the wrong. It's basically another form of addiction but it beats the hell out of alcohol. My wife and I have had this discussion in the past as well, she understands that this is my way to relax and lose myself for awhile in a place where my biggest issue is running out of ammo. Moderation is key, to maintaining a relationship anyways. I get up at 4 during the week so I started doing that on the weekend to get in 3 or 4 hours before she and my son get up. Also, just wanted to say thank you for your service.

Edited by deitz: 1/30/2015 9:22:03 PMDo you. It's a much healthier activity than drinking. There are plenty of women gamers out there if you get sick of her BS. Lost too many friends to shitty relationships. If you get to that point, move along. Edit: Also, thank you for your service.

Don't use playing this game as a coping mechanism though. Well, don't tell her that you do. She will probably feel like she's not enough.
-
Stop playing video games and spend your time with your girlfriend and family. Share your experiences with them only then will they understand.

U deserve every right to do whatever the hell u want

Trust me this argument will roll over. My wife and I have this same argument once a month.

Vet or not, a relationship requires balance and sacrifices. If you want to game for hours on end, don't be in a relationship. If you want a relationship, be prepared to do what she likes as well. It doesn't matter what you take, do or are. You'd have to compensate and balance things out if you want to be happy
-
You [i]do[/i] have every right to do what you choose. I'm not going to give you relationship advice as I don't know you, your situation, or anything about your life. Only thing I can say is you are in a relationship with someone. That's a commitment. If she feels as if you are not giving her attention, then you two need to talk. You're not going to solve anything talking to random people on here. Thank you for your service!

Balence brother, balance. You traded a less destructive vice for another. 7 hours is a looooooong time to play. Plus she just might not be into it. Like would you be willing to watch 7 hours of cat videos straight? Probably not. Limit yourself to like 2 hours of Play. Call it an exercise in self discipline and control.

Oh how I miss the sound of a GAU-8.

Don't listen to anyone hating. I have same problems. I just throw a night of me going down on her and satisfy her about once a week to balance my addiction to this game.

1 ReplyThis kinda stuff gets complicated. One possible solution is to try to involve her in the game. I've heard some success stories in doing this but a 2nd console can be a bit steep if you're short on money. You could set time schedules. This is game time, this is time for her. I don't recommend this as it can easily go wrong by her thinking she is 2nd to the game. Stopping would make her happy but probably wouldn't be good for you given your situation. You could try to have a heart to heart with her on your situation and open up emotionally to her. Not easy to do as a guy but this does tend to work. She needs to know how important she is to you. When doing this just try to avoid aggressive and blaming/ guilt responses that will undermine the whole thing. Hope this helps.

If she doesn't support your coping mechanisms, then she doesn't support you.

Semper Fi. Im a devil doc, i was with 2/3 division 2008 Fallujah 2010-2011 in marjah with 3/9. i just got out and i have been playing for long periods too. good thing my wife is mil to so she understands what we've been through. just explain to her that this is what you love doing and helps you to forget the things that happend. because sometimes doing nothing brings back bad memories. hope you get better cause i'm having a slow time adjusting.

Hey :) I am very sorry you're going through that.I am not an American but I would still like to thank you for your service and for sacrificing your health for the benefits of others. Second: I have a boyfriend and we are both actively playing Destiny,I am actually more active than him since I have more free time,perhaps you should explain her that the game actually helps you with your problems and if she does not understand than drop the relationship,it's not worth it.If you do not have someone by your side that supports you through everything then it is not worth it.I learned that from my previous relationship of 3 years where I kept trying to make it work and he didin't even bothered,I gave a ultimatum and spoke freely saying what it bothered me and what we could change,he did not do it so I moved on and now I am in a 6 years relationship and couldn't be happier,of course we have our fights like any other couple,my advice is simple,try to talk to her,explain her what the game does for you,that it helps or whatever and if she loves you she will understand,if not move on,my friend. You should not waste your time next to someone that doesn't appreciates you. [spoiler]PS: I really dislike the idea of a woman using a man like he's a ATM.A real woman would do her best to help her man not get him buy all the stuff.[/spoiler]

First off I want to take this time to thank you for putting yourself in harms way to defend us. I could never say enough to express my gratitude to the men an women in the military. And I can't give you advice on what you should do about your situation. I usually spoil my women, so I don't have much patience for when they don't want me to have "me" time. Whether that be gaming or hanging with the boys. However if your on Xbox one, any time you want to play I'd be more than happy to play with you. My GT is Hukd Wun. Also don't pay attention to all these I-D-Ten-T's commenting negatively. They just think they're smart because they are safely behind a keyboard lol.

Drop her bro. If she can't respect that you play destiny because you love to and it helps you cope with certain issues then she should not be given the light of day

you have every right to do what you want thanks for your service brother semper fi

You should look into a group called Team RWB (Red White &Blue). It's a great organization for returning Vets and could very well help you. I'm not a doctor so this is just my opinion. It sounds like it's a way to substitute one addiction for another. Stop drinking, more gaming. I'm a cancer patient (CML) who use to be very active and competitive, but because of my illness and surgeries can no longer do a lot of those things I once did. To help cope I turned to gaming and it became an addiction. Making yourself step away and focus on things that really matter such as friends, family, religion, ect is a better outlet then gaming. Just my opinion though. Thanks for serving!
