How do your wifes/husbands, fiancées, partners, lovers, knock offs react to your gaming needs?

I have been with my wife for about 15 years now, from day one, I told her that gaming/computers were a hobby and that was that.

Sure, she tried to "curb" it in some ways but I stood my ground and that was that.

"Come and sit on the sofa and watch this" - Refering to some **** mind numbing reality show or Peckham Housewives or the like.

"Erm, no. It is **** so why would I do that, I will be sat 5ft away on the computer enjoying myself talking to a load of strangers who are infinitely more interesting than you. Love you though".

Also, there was:

Midnight, 1AM, 2AM: (In a angry voice)
"Will you come to bed, I cannot sleep if your not there"
"**** off, I will come to bed when I want" (maybe not those exact words, must respect the fair lady).

After a while, the message was received and I was left to it.

Besides, now that we're engaged all she watches is wedding shows and I end up hurling abuse at people on the telly, so she doesn't ask me to watch any more!

LOL

I tend to do that, I just cannot help myself, it is a natural reaction for me now seeing as most TV is full of ****.

On the plus side, after a few minutes, I do get the "Oh, if your going to do that you may as well go somewhere else".

RESULT.
