This morning, when I was playing like I do every morning before I leave to start my day. My (girl) friend came into the room where I was playing, and started talking. Of course I was giving half answers since my attention was playing WITP<hence forth to be called the “game”>. She knows how much I like the game and the amount of time that I put into it. She was all giddy, since she was in the mood from some fun<yes…that kind of fun>. However, after seeing me click and give half answers to her questions she had left got tired of her one sided conversation. Later on when I am clicking my way through the Pacific I her crying in the other room. Naturally, I investigated to see what the problem is, come to find out. She is tired of sharing me with the game. She thinks all I do is come by her home use her computer. Have that special kind of fun<yea…that fun>; drink beer<that I buy> and leave when I am done. She says we never go out anymore to see movies or have drinks with our friends. All she says I do is come by just to use her computer and leave when I done.
Guess, what… it’s all true…Yea, I know I’m bad but this game is so addicting. It is hard to stop thinking about when you’re not around it.
So of course, I got here clamed down. Told her it was just a game and she means more to me than some game. She then said,” Well if you like it so much why don’t you teach me it so we can play together.” “Ok, honey (generic term for girlfriend) that sound like a good idea.” Tell you what when that patch comes out I’ll show you everything you need then we can play against each other.” Well if that wasn’t the best idea she had ever heard. She was ok then and is looking forward to having a game once the patch comes out. Whew…that was a close one
So now, it looks like I have a partner for now…Can she play? I guess I will soon find out.
In case your wondering if we ever did have that,”special fun.” No, she was out of the mood by then, however that is ok by me, I was able to take Iwo Jima this morning. So like everything it always does worked out just the way it is supposed to.
Just a reminder, always included your,’ other’ in the game. If she doesn’t like or understand it. You will be better for it. Due to the fact either it is considered to be
“That is (his/her) thing, I don’t understand it. But if (he/she) likes it. So what!”
Or “why is he wasting (his/her) time on that silly game. Don’t (he/she) know that war is over? Jeez, grow up!”

RE: Close - 
), you are not making that woman happy. You know she will never learn how to play "the game" so you're just buying time. I had a similar situation with UV and I recived a lot of female treatment for it(nagging ec.). The way I see it, the best way you (and she) can be happy is if you accept each other for what you are and throw in a few compromises. Of course, all I'm saying here is under assumption you care about her. If not, your wasting your time ( and hers
) or are simply a cold SOB
