I Love My Boyfriend With All My Heart

I like to game, I have to admit, I thank my partner in a good way, but I’m seeing that he plays a lot.... Like way too much to the point that today, he played in the morning, around 9am all the way to 10pm, he had some breaks in between. Recently I’d been invited to some social events and I was so excited and I told him about it, not that long ago he sent me a text saying that he was happy that I was individually socializing, and that he was sorry he couldn’t find events that would benefit the both of us when we go out, and he says that he’s bad at socializing. But it hurts me, because I kinda show no sympathy for him, because the only thing that’s stopping him, is himself. From my point of view, he’s not trying hard enough and is quite lazy, the only time he actually goes out is when I’m with him or he has a family outing, the thing is, he’s definitely not shy and unable to leave the house, he’s an amazing guy who’s wasting his own life away sitting on his arse playing Xbox. He sent me a depressing message one night and I was worried, very worried and I asked him the next day about what it was all about and he said that because there was no one online and there was nothing to do he got a bit depressed. I’m really worried about him, he’s 22, he shouldn’t be like this.

@Nanori I appreciate you telling me this :)

one of my exs was the same, he spent all his time on games nothing else, he gained alot of weight, quit university, stopped looking for jobs and basically all expenses and socializings became my task.
in time he became overly depressed and easily irritated. he wasn't achieving anything in his life that's why, and I told him but he was too attached to it that he refused to accept. I couldn't help him out of it and it got worse and worse.

@papparrazzi it's ok, it was long ago. but you might wanna use force before he drowns himself

@Nanori it’s great that you’ve moved on, and thank you, now it’s just the hard part of saying it right.

maybe he's depressed. as someone battling depression right now i can tell you that leaving the house isn't fun

@Nanori I'm depressed because i hate my body and don't want to go out, not because i play video games??
Nanori · F
@crownedwithlaurel97 did you know that depression can have various reasons?
papparrazzi · 26-30, F
@crownedwithlaurel97 you sound like a lovely person to talk to though, hating your body takes more of a toll than being depressed because no one is online to play with you.

That’s happened to a lot of people. At some point you just gotta find some moderation or you end up like he is.
papparrazzi · 26-30, F
@StevetheSleeve definitely making sure I’m not going to be like him, I schedule everything and make sure I don’t decline events or invitations to go out, socializing and gaming is better than just gaming

@papparrazzi That’s great. I hope he figures it out at some point too.
