Can you guys tell me if I'm crazy or not?
I'm not a social person, and don't have very many friends. The friends I do have, I don't talk to them or hangout with them regularly. I feel like that's pretty normal for being married and having kids.
My husband has a lot of friends, but pretty much all of them live out of state, where he grew up. His way of spending time with them is playing games online. He spends the large majority of his free time chatting with them on his headphones and gaming, after work and on weekends.
The very first thing he does on weekend mornings is wake up, and get right on the computer. This morning I asked him to please not play games first thing in the mornings. He said this the only time he could play with a particular friend, because that friend works nights and sleeps days. He asked what I would rather he do, and I said spend time with his family.
He obliged, but when he told his friend they both had that attitude like I was just being a nagging wife.
Am I crazy for thinking hanging out with your friends, whether in person or online, should be a couple of times a month thing, not every single day and weekend??
Yea I understand, I get frustrated too with my husband playing video games but then I think I’d much rather have him home then out (sometimes) lol
Plus whenever I tell him hey poppy diaper get to a pause point and come help or change he does it. So can’t complain too much.🤷🏻♀️
Compromise, compromise.
But trust me I do have my days where I wanna “accidentally” ruin his PlayStation 🙈
@damiensmommy1117, lol girl you’ll be amazed. He will find time. I said ok you can play but if you’re gonna be up all night playing you can pause and change and feed him. 👍🏼
@countrymama121 it's very frustrating. The interactions he does have with the kids are great, but it's just not enough.
Lately he's been getting off the computer shortly after I get the kids to bed to watch tv with me, but I'd really rather he wait until the kids are in bed and then start gaming.

I have times where I "accidentally" lean too close to his Xbox One and it shuts off since its touch activated. 😂
