My wife doesn't seem to understand my deep rooted need to play earth. Does anyone have any foolproof strategies to have their significant others understand this sick attachment I have?

My 2 cents.

To an extent, every person needs their own little space (personal time) be it reading/TV/games/etc. If Earth is that space, claim it, and let her have her own space too.

We've often talked about that in elderswar. Most of our significant others would prefer to catch us watching gay porn to seeing earth on our screens lol

This is my first set back after nearly 2 years, and I got the side eye, and the comment, "You're playing THAT game again."

All good though. I'm staying out of FFA, that was a real time sink.

Don't be a puccy. Just divorce her if she gives you any more sh1t. Would she rather stand in line for WIC and child support, or let you play a game without guns, Gore or tits? Like she isn't glued to her phone and social media? Tell that bytch to get in the kitchen and make some coffee, it's time for express!!!

Just tell her that you will stop playing earth if she stops using Facebook. That's what I did. Problem solved.

If you have a "sick attachment" that seems to be the problem. If you're just exaggerating and playing some hours a week why would she bother you about that? Everyone is entitled to a hobby. A significant other that doesn't understand that has major issues IMO.

We ended up divorced eventually.

Current wife couldnt care. But I’m building my personal empire now.

But I’ve never been able to match the

Cut throatness

Laughter

That I’ve found here.

Your brain has been abducted by a cult, occasionally suffers minor demonic possession which is easily treatable by a Catholic priest versed in exorcisms.

My Dad, being an avid model railroader had a bumpersticker on his truck that said, "My wife threatened to leave me if I buy one more locomotive, God, I'm gonna miss her".

Sometimes you gotta be willing to stand your ground and do what you want to when it's your time for leisure. But I must point out, being a m0m0, you probably have text messages coming in while she's "In the mood", and you gotta break it off to go and stonewall. LOL That probably doesn't help things.

Face it, you're going to have to prioritize. The choice is clear.

1. fluff and Peace at home
2. Late night market visits to buy up troops or turrets while your ass is sucking a point on your chair.

Simple enough, right?

I don't need anger management, people need to stop pissing me off!

This was just a silly post during all the earlier anger on here, stopped paying attention when jayr stopped in here. I haven't played since getting married she just didn't understand it's all good now.

She was, however, very happy when my country died.

Simple solution. Dont tell her.

Keep a porn window in the background. Whenever she comes by switch to the porn window and she wont ever suspect you are still playing Earth.
