I play SH3 too much. Came home after 14 hours at work, and started to play the game. I more or less ignored my girlfriend and her dinner, now she took off to a friend and threatened to leave me
![]() Guess I'm a bad boy, and should take more care of her than SH3. I better do something about this, you know women...they mean what they say. Any suggestions? Think i'll try to make a deal with her ![]() |

Mate you ARE in trouble, especially now that GWX is comming
![]() ![]() ![]() On a serious note though. I would suggest to take her out on a nice dinner, or even on a week end somewhere the two of you. Something where she can have your whole attention for a long period of time. And make sure you don't come anywhere near your PC for the next week or so.

Sorry to hear that, mate... i agree with mel; some quality time could add up to playing SHIII.. Try to make a schedule; when shall i play, and when shall i be with my woman. If you give her the time she wants with you, im sure she will let you have your SHIII-time also. Good luck!

After a long day like that, you should by all rights be more interested in her, if she's worth it. Don't make deals or promises you can't deliver. Deals suck anyways, and you'll have 'em hung around your neck like noose.
Suprised you didn't fall asleep at the helm! Or maybe I'm just getting old...... I would have, and have done so in the past. Best bet, apologise and make ammends for your lack of courtesy. After all, she had dinner ready for you. It may not sound like much, but it is. Don't take it, or her for granted. ![]() Yes the game is addictive, and we all need our fix, but be intellegent about when you decide to sit down and get it. Or just be willing to enjoy blissful bachelorhood.

Give and take brother. SH3/GWX or girlfriend? I'm sure you will miss her...LOL. On a serious note. Got to have balance bro. If you give her what she wants you have a nice barganing chip. Most of all, lay that cable like you going across the Atlantic with it. Pulling it off in the shower is no way to go through life. Women require security financially, you have that covered....14 hour work day. They also require attention like a flower requires water and sun. Without those the flower withers away. So shower her with water and sun. Once this is complete you can pretty much do what you want. You must keep that up though. In all reality, a few nights away from the computer might do you some good. WHo knows, you might even enjoy hanging out with her. At least that how it started, yes?

If you can, tim down the work hours for the next week or two and spend some time with her. Go to the movies, take her shopping, go out for dinner. Keep SHIII down to a minimum (I know it's hard but try!!) Put off installing GWX to reduce temptation.
![]() A salior needs a friendly port to come home to, not an enemy occupied one!! ![]() Show some love and you will find her more acceptable to SHIII in the future ![]() |

I think the moment you decided to ask us to help you, you were doomed. If you still have a bit of human left in you, take your stupid sh3 cd and crack it. Yeah go ahead, you can do it. One day you might be able to do the same with your computer. That one<s hard though, i havent managed yet. Anyways, good luck.

Actually, thanks for bringing that up. With the advent of GWX coming out, I will have to lay the cable regularly for the next day or so. Then I can be left alone to play GWX
![]() ![]() ![]() It's easy to grin when your ship comes in!!! THERE IS A METHOD TO THE MADNESS!!!

![]() Thanks guys, a lot of helpful suggestions here, I'm sure my problem will be solved. Btw I don't work 14 hrs a day, I'm a pilot, and my working hours depends on things like the weather, which is tuff around here these days. A lot of coffee keeps us going, but now I gotta hit the bedroom. |

Hey Subwolf.......
I fly for a living as well. In fact...I am scheduled to go to Oslo tomorrow but I am not sure if I am going to take the trip. (My mom got really sick a few days ago and they will drop the trip for me if I want to be with her). Anyway....what do you fly? I am on the 767. Do you live near Oslo? P.S. She isnt a flight attendant is she???? |

My wife used to be exactly the same especially as im a submariner in real life, she said it was like i was at sea when i was on my pc in the living room, she complained of being bored and lonely, so i gave her 2 kids, now her arse doesnt touch the sofa she is that busy looking after me and my 2 little crew members, best thing i ever did as now she is too busy to even notice me on SH3. Every now and again I pull into port, turn the pc off, open up a few bottles of vino and take her upstairs and show her a good time to keep her sweet, life is simple when you find the right route shipmate. Good luck with the mrs, dont forget thier is a whole shoal of fish out there ![]() ![]() |
