Ever since my husband got sick and we got the internet he has played a game called World of Tanks. At first I didn't mind it to much but then he got a headset so he could talk to people and he is on it all the time. I feel left out sometimes and lonely but I've tried to talk to him about iy and all I get is "Well fine I'll just sell my computer" or "what else is there to do" or he says I sleep all the time and he's not just going to sit there and watch me sleep and he says there usually isn't anything on tv. He has these things called "Clan Wars" that he has to be at every night at 6 until 12-2 am in the morning and by then when he gets off of the computer he lays back to watch tv with me and in less than 20 mins he's asleep. He gets onto me all the time on how I need to clean the room and do laundry or put it away but I have chronic illnesses and the only thing wrong with him is he has Bile Reflux that makes him get sick or builds up a lot of gas in his system and he acts like he's ****ing helpless. I love him but I am getting tired of him not wanting to help me. We have 3 pitbulls and 2 are only 5 months and we are working on potty training them (or I should say I am trying) whenever they poop a lot inside he gets all pissy until I get up and pick it up. I have Scoliosis and my back kills me 24/7...ugh sry just needed to vent!!!

Sometimes the venting thing works really well in releasing some of the stress. We are very good listeners here and will try to help if we can. Maybe you can get a family member or a close friend to talk to your husband about the excessive amount of time he is on the computer.

I say tell hubby to start taking Prilosec every single day.....Help you around the house and when the dogs eat or drink take them out so they don't mess in the house! Sorry, I think he is behaving very immature

Your husband sounds like a spoilt child, no wonder you need to vent! Vent away, vent as much as you need to!

1. He doesn't have to be online for a guild war. That's the reason I never joined guilds. They forget it's a game and have these "requirements" like it was something solid or real.
2. He needs to get treated for his illness, not play games and ignore it.
3. He needs to get up and help out. If the room needs cleaned, then instead of expecting someone to clean it he needs to get up do it himself.
4. Finally a marriage is about two people, not just one and he needs to invest in you. If he wants your marriage to work, then he needs to make it work, not just expect it.

He can play some without having to spend 6 hours a day on the computer. An hour or two is plenty. Then he can invest in your relationship.
