I Love My Boyfriend

[b]just to make things clear, I’m asking for advice on what to say to him, there’s no way I’m going headfirst into this moment without knowing what to say, also not playing the victim, as I agree that both sides need to work on the situation together[/b]

I do love my boyfriend, but since we’re getting closer and closer to 5 months into the relationship, he’s goes onto his Xbox a few times, and I’m happy for him, but it makes me want to go home, even though I can’t suggest any other activities to do, but I just feel that I’m not needed. Also I’m pretty sure he takes his gaming seriously,I tried playing Battlefield and I can tell he gets frustrated, and so do I because it’s just a game. I do love him, but could this be the end of our relationship? He’s my first partner, but I do love him, but sometimes he does act a little immature for a 21 year old, and yes I know that he’s still young.
But I do love him and just need more advice as to trying to get his attention more, because I feel the Xbox will rule over this relationship, please help.

Does he have a job or fulltime school? Does he seem responsible otherwise or is he like many other immature 20somethings?? I'm forcing my teenage boys to get away from games, exactly for this reason. Imo, he needs something fun outside of the gaming world.

[@ he does have a job and I also have a job, but it’s mainly the gaming side that puts me off, I too actually like gaming, but he’s been gaming more than I have, but I feel he should spend more time with me than on the Xbox as he was the one who asked me over, which doesn’t really make it fair to be honest.

@papparrazzi communicate with him. Tell him it is becoming boring for you to interact with him while gaming. Games do appeal to males' natural tendencies, but he might need the wake-up call from you to prioritize you vs the games. This will test his maturity level.
