um, isn't this slavery? you can't own people, and therefore can't sell them, or even give them away.
"Alyse Braddley had joked to her mother-in-law that she would list Kyle on Craigslist if he didn't stop playing the war-based video game."

It can be seen as a joke. To make him aware of his habits. Just like we used to put our Prime Minister on the dutch version of Ebay. Just because.. well.. We needed money (as a nation mind you).
Really? Gonna love the Dutch... :D

Back on Topic:
My significant other is making money and is too valuable to be sold.

Um no can't really he does play a lot of wow but then he doesn't object to the amount of time I spend playing games either so it's kinda even. Plus hes kinda useful for the buying me stuff and then getting things from high shelves.

Probably should spend more time fixing my typos as well...

Ha! Laying games. Bow chicka bow wow :p

Would I sell a GF / Wife if they played too much games? Shit no, I'd plug in another controller and join them! Then we can skip hand in hand as we disappear into the horde of zombies waiting to be slaughtered for loot.

Yeah, I'm a romantic that way.

YAY, DIVORCE!


No, I wouldn't sell my other half be3cause he games too much. In fact, he's more likely to sell me, but we've been co-oping a lot more together lately so we're gaming together in perfect harmony.

Married at 22 and unhappy. What a surprise.
This isn't to do with their age, but his behaviour. I'm 23 and my wife is 22. We're very happy - perhaps because I don't ignore her to play my games.
Don't worry you just haven't found the right game yet, keep looking and you'll meet it soon enough.

And this is why marrying someone who shares interests and hobbies with you is a good thing. Wildly different interests just leads to resentment as neither side will agree on what to do, and compromising is just going to lead to both sides feeling like half their time is being wasted. I consider myself pretty lucky that I can play Co-Op or trade "Let's Play" experiences with my spouse, rather than both of us having to do shit we don't like.

As for the story, I don't think I would have gotten myself in the same situation as the husband anyway because I acknowledge the importance of shared interests. However, on the off chance that I did wind up in his shoes, I'd probably take it very personally, and would probably threaten divorce. Whether or not I'd follow through on the threat would depend on how things go from there. A joke is one thing, but this goes well beyond being a joke to me. This has gotten national media attention, hurting both of their reputations. I don't like being put on the spot and made to look like a fool, and I especially wouldn't want it to happen with the eyes of the world watching. Beyond that, and much more importantly (since let's face it, the world's not gonna care anymore come next week), this joke shows, to me at least, a clear lack of respect for the husband. Why talk about an issue with your husband when you can instead publicly shame him, right? If that's the kind of behavior I could expect from my spouse whenever there's a hiccup in the marriage, I'd rather cut my losses early than stick with it and be miserable.

Thanks. It's always sad when relationships struggle. We're Christians but we waited for 4 years - no haste! I can safely say sex isn't the reason we got married.
How did you manage to wait, out of interest? I've never understood how the couple I mentioned before did it - there was the occasional drunken fumble that never went to to full sex and a lot of guilt afterwards, but as far as I know they held out until marriage - especially if you met as teenagers. Raging hormones as well as being with someone you were fairly sure you wanted to marry...seems really difficult to me, and I've never even been all that bothered about sex.

Fighting can be a way of resolving a problem. If it is, it may not be too bad, although it's not the way I do things!
Theirs tend to be less of a cathartic little tiff, more of a shouting-and-screaming-and-then-not-really-talking-for-a-month sort of thing. It seems to be a permanent cycle; they'll be great, then they won't for a while (which, in a selfish way, I don't mind because it means I actually get to see my friend), then they'll make up until one of them pisses the other off again. My mate has even admitted that most of the fights are stupid little things that get blown out of proportion and then spiral. It worries me a little, because they do love each other. They just drive each other fucking crazy as well :p
