writes:He doesn't seem to want to be with me any more. He would rather spend time snuggled up with his playstation controller than with me. He takes it so seriously as well, swearing and getting mad at the game - it almost makes me jealous as he never takes me that seriously. His immaturity drives me mad!!! I just feel so frustrated because if I ask him to finish his game to be with me, he makes out like I'm forcing him to do something he doesn't want to, like I'm a chore! What can I do?

I might do that actually, go stay at my mums for a week and see how he reacts. I threatened to do so not long ago and he begged me not to. We have a lot of other issues at the moment as well you see. He was concerned that it might make things worse... but I really do feel that since we moved into together we've been taking each other for granted and haven't really been spending time together in the way that we did before we were living in each others pockets.

Maybe you need to take off for awhile with the baby and go visit relatives or friends a week or two. Let him start missing you. I also would not wait on him hand and foot. I am not saying you are doing this, but I would not.
Other than that, I would tell him you want to go to couples counseling if none of this works and he closes up to you.

It's not so simple just to leave him, we've been together for two years, live together and most importantly, have a seven month old daughter together. He can be a really good father and he used to be a great boyfriend but recently he seems to have changed.

I can't just leave him, we've been together two years, live together and more importantly, have a seven month old daughter. He can be a really good father and in the not so far away past, he was a great boyfriend. But recently he changed.

My boyfriend is the exact same way. He chooses playing his video games over spending time with me quite frequently. Im glad to know I am not the only girl in the world with a boyfriend addicted to video games. He gets mad and swears at the game just like your boyfriend. He also spends loads of money on his stupid games. Its annoying.

You can sit down and have a conversation with him. It's called "open communication". And if he still acts the same way, don't stick around.
