WoW ruined my marriage. My son doesn't have a father because of this game. I won't go into my story because its pretty much the same as everyone elses. Just know that before the game my ex was an active member of society. Anyway.

Before you read on say this after me "There is a problem. It is real. I have to do something. I CAN do something. I WILL do something and not be a victim."

Good, moving on.

Solutions:

1. Get him away from the house. If you have the means, and can convince him, go on a vacation. Get him away from his comfort zone. If you have to, say that where your going has computer access, then make sure it doesn't. Yes he will be mad, but WoW addiction is like a smoking habit, you'll never really stop craving but the longer your away from it the easier it gets. He might thank you. While your away have a friend take everything WoW related off your computor.

2. Talk to his friends or family. They may know, they may not. If talking to him hasn't worked, he might listen to family. You should seriously think of an intervention, research interventions to find out how its done. You never know, he may not fully realize what he's doing. Being confronted by a large group of people saying the same thing can work wonders. That might actually be a good diet plan too.

3. The first two were nice, and they do have their merits, but this is my favorite. Take a baseball bat and take out all your frustration on the computer, think "Office Space". Depending on the temperment of your loved one you might or might not want to be there when he gets home. I wish i had done this, but i believed his lies. I know what your thinking "this is not necessary", but it is. Some posters have said that the problem is your not interesting or fun, but you shouldn't have to babysit your bf or husband. Why should all the work be on you to sustain the relationship while he gets to escape into a game.

I hope my solutions will help. They are serious, this is serious, nothing about this is a joke. And "Its Not Your Fault"
