My fiancee is always playing xbox360 and that is all he wants to do. I'm trying to be very understanding because he just got laid off and we are in the middle of planning our wedding. But i am getting lonely and we live in the same house. He doesn't even want sex anymore. What am I going to do? Valentines day is coming and I don't even want to put any effort into it at.

A reader, anonymous, writes (13 February 2007):

He may be going through some kind of depression. It does happen when jobs are lost and our minds are left in the doldrums. Try and be a bit more patient with him. Why not get a game that you can both play on, join in. Arrange to go out for a little (inexpensive) meal together, or you cook something special and get him to get the drinks. Try and sit down and talk and find out what is going on in his head. It won't be an easy time financially if he hasn't got a job. Talk.

Take care

dragonette agony auntMost likely he's now very much into gaming because he lost his job and gaming kinda makes you forget how sucky the real world can be sometimes.

In any case you can't get married to him if things stay as they are now, there wouldn't be a point. If you wanted someone who would sit around and play videogames all the time, you would have adopted a 13-year-old kid. =)

You need to tell your guy that he needs to make time for the two of you to be together in order for there to be a relationship. See if the two of you can agree on a certain amount of time per day (in hours) that will be reserved for "togetherness".

And lastly, try to see if you can understand his obsession with gaming, what makes it so fun to him. Maybe the two of you could play some games together.
