Any advice on attempting a relationship with a hardcore gamer?

A Gamer's Love/Hate Relationship (Girl %26amp; Guy)





So that's my title. Don't get me wrong. I am a gamer,.. just not as bad as before.





It all started a year or so ago where I grew a crush on a guy in a game. Others noticed the guy seemed like he liked me back.


I moved closer to him (home-wise)... and I tried to convert our online friendship/cutesy flirtations into a real friendship/(possibly dating)..





He seems to be kept to himself. He always stays home, and nevers to go anywhere. As a nerd/gamer, I understand. What I don't understand is he wants to be alone...forever?





When trying to show him how I feel about him, he gets more angry... But the few times I have hung out with him, he seems crazy about me.. always wanting to hold my hand... or hold me in general. He wishes to please me... but he does not want to be with me..





I think what drove him away in the end, was my reaction and frustation with him... I've been waiting for a year or so for him to see how much I love him.Any advice on attempting a relationship with a hardcore gamer?
Maybe he has some other issues hes hiding or covering up with his behavior. Like maybe he's inexperienced with his feelings or something and doesnt know how to deal with you or anything or where it would lead if it doesnt lead back to the controls.





Your just not pressign his buttons right.





My son is a gamer and he says you need to confront him and ask him to spend some time with you and alot of other people and friends more often because he is becoming too attached to the PS2 and you are concerned about him so you should tell him.Any advice on attempting a relationship with a hardcore gamer?
If he plays games all the time while he is liking you, he will play games all the time if you marry him.


If he is a 'homebody' NOW, when you get married, he will be a 'homebody' THEN.


If he gets angry when you show your feelings NOW, if you marry him, he will get mad when you show your feelings THEN.


Get my point?


You are setting yourself up for HEARTACHE.


Get away from this man, and forgive yourself on getting involved with him in the first place.
I don't think he's there for you. Move on.
I know it is frustrating to have someone who would rather play games than maybe hang out with you. My boyfriend is a hardcore gamer too. When he plays his games he gets lost in them and can spend hours with his games and he not realize all that time that has past. Sometimes it is a place where they can go and forget about their hardships in their lives. Has this guy stated he wants to be alone forever?! I don't think he wants to be alone forever...maybe he feels if he gets close to someone they will want him to quite playing his games and then he won't have that to go to when he has a down time. Tell how much you love him and just be there for him. Let him know that his gaming doesn't bother you and you don't want him to give it up. I know it can be frustrating at times when they rather play their games and not talk to you about the problems they are having...but sometimes people deal with their problems differently. I just let my boyfriend know that I am here for him when he does want to talk. I let him know I don't have a problem with is gaming but I would like for him to be able to share things with me that might be bothering him if possible. Hope this helps.
ummm that is rather strange....


but sweet in a computer type of way


i sort of have the same problem, but i cant be sooo.... FOWARD with a guy


good luck
I think he is having trouble finding priorities in his life. He might be in that state where games seem more real than any relationship, or he could be depressed. Maybe he doesnt really believe in himself that anyone wants a relationship with him. If you really want to show you care then be there for him through all of his issues. Sometimes guys respond better to actions than words, I sure as hell know what im talking about. Well thats my two cents. ( I play WoW im also a gamer :P)
buy yourself one of those machines that move like you're having sex and order it with a video game controller so you can gradually get him away from the computer and closer to you. or just give him an ultimatum of games or having sex with you......that should work well. unless he's secretly a homo
