AITA for actually getting annoyed that my bf plays video games all the time? He’s 23 and all he does after work and the entire weekend is play video games. It’s honestly such a turn off. He literally doesn’t cook, clean, anything. Like ZERO drive.

Have you talked to him about this? If you have and he’s just blowing you off, you might want to consider your options…

Ask a guy who also plays video games, they’re a fun thing to do but like you gotta have balance with it right? If you can and you’re willing to, try to help him find something to do with you/other people that can excite him like video games do

The bigger issue is he rather play videos games then hang out with you, break up, a man who is interested in you shows interest.

He has no drive to do anything after his desk job except play video games for hours on end. I work too. Insane shifts, on my feet all day, getting my res hours in, study, but still cook, meal prep for the week, clean, make time for my friends, him, my family. It just gets under my skin.

I’ve talked to him about this type of thing 3 times nicely this past year. More of a hey can we do this first then you can chill and do whatever you want after ur done. I never said anything about the video games specifically until yesterday and he was so annoyed that I even mentioned it because he works all day and doesn’t want to do stuff when he gets home so then it was a fight.

Yeah no… he can keep not doing shit after a shift, and you can find someone that actually likes to spend time with you.

I always try to get him to do stuff and go out with me or with friends but he never wants to, he just wants to sit and play his games for hours on end. I think I have just beat around the bush for so long that I’ve built SO much resentment, esp when it comes to him with video games.

It’s just so frustrating bc I really try not to compare work loads and stuff but I bust my ahh every day at work on my feet and come home, cook, clean, study bc I’m in school on top of that, and STILL make time for things I care about in life and he is tired after sitting at his desk job so he sits for 6 hours after work playing video games? I sounds like such a b but it just makes me irrationally angry

And you are right to be angry. He’s supposed to be your partner, not your child. I’m so sorry, love. You deserved better.
