Well my last girlfriend, despite not being one herself, accepted my gaming only because she understood that it was more than a toy, she saw it sorta as a movie or book, a story and such thus she had no issues
She better not since she married me. She new what she was getting into!
The only deal I had to make was a promise to not get WoW becuase it would block up the computer and I would probably disconnect from the family for the rest of my life. That kind of grindy goodness is right up my alley.

Yeah she knows and accepts it. Obviously I didn't tell her straight away, just playing a bit of COD here, a little WoW there. Now she knows it full extent and it doesn't bother her in the slightest. In fact, last week she bought me Metro 2033 for absolutely no reason 
Oh if only I could answer this question in the now, sadly for the answer, I must go back to darker times. My ex had no problem with me gaming... apart from if I played guitar hero, she wasn't too happy about that. She wasn't much of an avid gamer though but she played a couple games on an old school xbox. I only ever seen her play a racing game and it wasn't much to awe at. I dumped her a week or so later.
My boyfriend and I met through games. He started me on WoW and I keep him going when he gets bored.
Grindy grindy grind, boy do I ever love the grind.

Me and my fiancee started talking online when she confessed to playing CS 1.6. That got us talking, and over the next 2 years we became really good friends, she loved Charlie Chalk and I loved CS. Then we kinda confessed that we liked each other a little more than just friends. We met up, started going out, or dating or whatever u wanna call it, moved in together, and I introduced her to WoW. Eventually she stole my account completely, beat me to 70, and started raiding, mainly cuz I couldnt get her off the damn thing, and well, raiding was more important than me just dithering about on it. So I'd either play my Wii (this is befor I sold it) or I'd play the 360 I bought for her so she could play Fable and the likes, cuz she was a console girl. Or on her PS2 or whatever. We eventually got a second account, and transfered my toons across. We now have 8 level 80's between us, raided together, and play together practically everyday. She's got 5 of the 80's to my 3, and she lives and breathes the game, she knows so much more than me, I have to ask her stuff these days lol.
So yeah she accepts gaming. Cuz she games more than me. Gaming is our life. We'd be bored without it.

As said many times in this thread, if she didn't like, or at least accept, my gaming then she wouldn't be my girlfriend.
Well at the moment I don't have one but my ex didn't have a problem with it since it never actually came up except when I asked her if she played any games, sadly she didn't.
but this girl that I would like to have as a girlfriend does play games and she like kingdom hearts as well, and she plays WoW. So i'm pretty sure she'd be alright with it since we even talked about playing games together.

Well,I don't have one at the moment,but I'm working on developing a relationship with my most recent ex.We decided to start again,but wanted to start off as friends again first,because with one thing and another,we didn't get to see each other much,and we just felt this was best.So let's go with her.
She accepts it I'd say.I bought her a copy of Portal,Plants Vs Zombies and a old game called The Little Prince,which she was ever so slightly happy about.She's not much of a gamer herself,but that did start to change when we were dating.I was referred to as 'Snorlax',because I 'slept all the time',which just meant not getting up at stupid o' clock in the morning when she did,because she had to go to school,and I didn't.And she went to the MCM expo in London,just because she wanted to see me.She didn't actually want to go for any other reason.She had fun when she was there though.Especially when she found out the dance machines were free.
