re: Anyone have a significant other who isn't a fan of your video games?

I feel like I'm a bit deeper in this hobby than most here and I manage relationship and hobby pretty well (wife with young child).

I don't put games before her but games have always been important. It was an understood idea that it was my hobby and that trying to get rid of games was getting rid of part of what made me who I was. While my identity isn't solely in that, it has been a part of life.

Edit: Really, as long as I spend time with her, it never becomes a problem. I can count of one hand the time she's gotten mad at me gaming in ~10 years.

The only annoyance I've had is that she'll force me to stop playing "scary" games when she's in the room. Just means it took me longer to beat Dead Space and Evil Within.
