my bf is a gamer

I don't know when my bf will ever get the point that he needs to have better time management with how long he is on the computer playing games. It gets lonely having to go to bed without him. I then find out he's been up since midnight or even 2am. We almost broke up once before because I felt I was always second to his hobbies. Now it seems like its slowly going back to the same old problems. I've been so upset that I yell at him and have told him he's addicted to games.

hiya, my boyfriend is exactly the same and i've learnt now that he does'nt love me any less, he seems to live in a mmorpg world but its there way of escaping reality but it is addictive. i got addicted to spider solitair and when i was'nt playing it i was thinking about it. why not take an interest in his game even if you don't care for the game you will get the affection you yern for.

hope this helps

Going on the assumption that you've tried to sit down with him and talk to him about it, I have a few things to suggest.

Depending on how willing/compliant he is, you could try setting up a written contract. For example, You have to be off it by 11/12, or have a set time limit per 24 hours?

Why not try to find other activities to do, even if its late at night, got for a walk with him, go watch a film? Take him to a favourite spot of yours.
Think up something new and exciting !

I know how hard it is when your probably thinking "well its not my problem, why should I have to deal with it?" But in the end, if he doesn't see the reality, maybe you need to try and coax him out of it. From what I can tell, you obviously care about him, and are committed. Assuming that judging by how much it upsets you, you would have thrown in the towel a while ago.

Bear in mind that the second person A decides to shout at person B. Person B will switch off mostly. Its much more effective to have a sit down and a conversation rather than rage, even though I know its very very hard not to sometimes

Hope I've offered some sound advice. Let us know if it helps.
Take care
