The next time he empties the trash, play a loud 'Ding!' sound and tell him his Refuse-Disposal skill just increased.

Course if your GF or Wife looks like THIS

Yeah if it wasn't for me this forum would be nothing but boring old men talking about their e-peens.

My wife has no problem with me gaming.... For the next two weeks I'm resting my sorry ole ### at home gaming&nbsp; 8-10 hrs a day. She knows it. Spring break...Gotta Love it....Rugrat in Texas, so it me and the dog... She actually told me she has no probs with me gaming because I don't have the urge to get in trouble that way. No booze, no nubile young hotties etc etc.....

I play the game a lot, not so much that it would interfere with my life, but enough that I can get some of it in and my wargame fix too. With that being said RH. Send me that girl, and that'll take care of everything for me. while your at it, send me your avatar.

Oh you want me to send you "THAT GIRL" Marlo Thomas? Ok you asked for it...the lovely the beautiful 65 year old plus Marlo Thomas You can thank me later after you get out of the bathroom. haha

Please...Ravinhood.. no px of your significant other!!!!!

Oh, flashback to 1995....still a newlywed...

Just got a real job so I finally buys my first PC (P75 - woot!) but quickly made the utterly fatal mistake of purchasing Panzer General AND the original X-COM at the same time...

That poor chicka didn't stand a chance.....[:o]

My issues are World of Warcraft and wargames, I hardly ever touch my XBOX 360 which is really weird

Computer games don't take a back seat to anything, let alone women.[;)]

My wife doesn't mind my gaming at all. I help her out around the house and with our 3.5 yera old daughter; all the bills are paid and we have money in the bank. No strip clubs and no time to hit on our hot baby-sitter cuz my wife let's me do my war thing plus she gets hers whenever she wants--and sometimes I get it as much as I want so all is good.

Retraction....
Women can take the front seat if it involves hot babysitters...

This is my favourite:

3. Fake a power outage; cuddle up with candles and a board game

As someone said in IRC (translated from finnish):

Romantic dinner in light of heavy bolter

Panzer General and X-Com... [:D] man those were the days. Glued to the screen, heck even now I remember the maps from PG.

Doesn't that asiatic girl has something "weird" ...something a little "too big" in here pants????[&:]...or it's just me that am afflicted by 21st century sexual paranoias?

This has always been trouble for me. Back in the 70s and 80s I would have board wargames set up and then hide them under a bed to avoid squabbles.&nbsp; One girl I lived with complained I spent more time with the games than with her and announced either the games go or she does.&nbsp; I just looked at her and didnt say anything and then she starts crying how I actually had to think about it!&nbsp;
I sure hope they have wargames in heaven!

Well at least my wife never did what my mother did to me once... classic wargamer's horror story: 6 days worth of setting up and playing Richard Berg's Gettysburg with two buddies of mine (remember that game?), and my mother one morning goes into my room and (casually) folds the map and all the counters and puts everything back in the box, cause "she badly needed to clean up that pigsty...!" I'll never forget what she said afterwards:"Just continue the game from where you left off! What's the big deal??.." [:@]

Just continue the game from where you left off! What's the bid deal??.." [:@]

LMAO hahahah Is yer mommy also blond?

aaaahhhh that is horrible!!! I guess we have all had similar experiences with the uninformed kids, spouses, parents and pets messing up a game, or in the army a nasty First Sergeant coming through the barracks.
At home on leave I set up Terrible Swift Sword Gettysburg on a ping pong table and my sisters cat jumped up on the thing and started batting the counter stacks around like they were toys! Luckily I caught him and stopped him before it was unfixable.
Another time a live in girlfriend mad that I didnot spend sufficient time on her purposely bumped the map to knock over stacks on a War in the East monster map. She got my attention as it was one of the few times I got real mad at her. So for a few days we slept in seperate rooms. One night I decided to make up after a night of drinking with friends at the NCO Club, and proceeded to sneak into bed with her not knowing she had gone to make up with me and went to my room. Unknown to me a girlfriend of hers was staying over and in her bed. So I had slipped into bed with the wrong girl, put a hand on her boobs and passed out (back in my drinking days). She got up and woke my girl to say what had happened. I was extremely embarrassed the next day when they told me what had happened!
