I avoid getting involved with people who are very much into gaming. I spend a lot of time at the computer (career obligation) not to mention for my personal projects. Then throw on some time from gaming on consoles. The last thing I need is someone else being pre-occupied with the same things, when I'm ready to spend time with them. I don't come from the school of thought that "the person I sleep with has to be into all the exact same stuff I am into!", anyway. If I enjoy bowling, I can go bowling with my friends.
 
Of course, I also avoid living with people I'm seeing in any serious manner, because spending too much time with someone is a sure way to grow tired of each other. Especially if people's habits tend to easily drive you fucking insane, like they do to me. I don't have to justify what I'm doing, check my schedule against theirs, or catch them int he bathroom with the door open.
 
A tiny bit of me definitely dies inside, however, when most of my male friends can't go do something or hang, because "my wife won't let me" or other depressing bullshit.

girlfriend?

My fiancee (who lives with me) doesn't mind at all. She rarely games with me, but I think I've found a good balance of her-time and game-time, so there haven't been any problems.  Maybe I just got lucky, because she seems to totally get it.
 
And I play a LOT of games.

I don't have a partner, so they don't have a issue with me gaming. Though my parents are much displeased at their child playing too much games.

Any game that is online Splitscreen compatible, (Gears of War, Left 4 Dead, Guitar Hero etc) my wife and I play against our friends who do the same. Our L4D2 party is pretty good too.
Other than that she spends her time on this "Warcraft" thing.

Nope, in fact she likes watching over my shoulder. I'm lucky, she used to date a WoW addict/asshole, so it was a somewhat slow process for her to accept that I'd rather spend time with her than the games. Now she's helping me solve puzzles in Sam and Max and freaking out at Alan Wake.

Just finished playing SSFIV with my girlfriend :D

I reckon girls will like games as much as guys, but it won't happen till games are developed with females in mind. Not to say girly games, but when you look at the majority of top selling videogames, they normally involve a blokey male running around killing things with guns. Can't see a female finding that entertaining?

Being a figment of my imagination, she pretty much does whatever I say.

My girlfriend is pretty cool with gaming. She tries to play with me on a few co-op games, but she's not quite got the hang of it yet. That said, she treats some games like "movie night" and makes a bucket of popcorn and watches me play. It's an intriguing experience, and one I gladly have with her. 
 
Our run through Dead Space was hilarious because of her reactions.

I think she's more bothered by me TALKING about games. And I can go kind of deep with it, so I'm sure it's foreboding because she was never a huge gamer, but I can just bring it up and talk for hours about A GAME, not like how other people just run through a list of things that are coming out eventually.

Yeah its just like guys night out, except its guys night in.  The moment all women understand that we'll be fine. 
 
My girlfriend does already, so I'm good.

Nah, she doesn't care. I know how to prioritize.

My wife says as long as Im gaming, im home where she can see me, and not out drinking/drugs/sleeping around.... not that I do any of those things, and we have a nice balance.... i usually dont play too much when shes home anyways, I enjoy spending time with her :)

She doesn`t even know that I do, but, i`m pretty sure she`ll be fine with that since she plays xbox at home.

my girl plays as often as she can. 

Just a matter of prioritizing your girl, bro.

" Being a figment of my imagination, she pretty much does whatever I say. "

She doesn't mind. She occasionally plays too. The only thing she asks is that I'm not one of those guys who idolizes gamer girls. Given that I do not and understand her dislike for both groups, we get along perfectly.

My fiancée doesn't play as often as me, but she does play games like The Sims, Harvest Moon, and Civilization. She also likes to play Nazi Zombies with me every now and again as well. She gets on me sometimes about how I'm always talking, reading, and thinking about games though. 
 
Her and I enjoy a strong relationship though, and we both love to bitch and complain about how stupid everyone else is. We enjoy making fun of crappy movies together, watching bizarre videos on stileproject together, etc. 

As said. Just prioritize your girlfriend and your gaming (as well as other commitments) and you'll be super.
 
Anyone that loses a girlfriend cause they can't give up gaming a few hours is pathetic or they dont really like the girl.

Not at all; she knew what she was getting when we married to strengthen both our Kingdoms.

Lmao @ Tyler Perry movies. 

Nah she likes to watch. 
Awww yeah. 
 
Unfortunately she's pretty bad at playing most games...just cannot get the hang of the right analogue stick controlling the camera, but she loves to watch me playing story based games. 
It's kind of like watching a movie together...only waaaaaay better.

My wife isn't much of a gamer but she understands that it's always been a hobby of mine and she supports it. She finds things to do while I'm gaming.

Probably... you know... if I had one.

My girlfriend plays as many games as I do... Possibly more.

Nope, at least I don't think so since she keeps joining me and is either playing with me or against me.  
Maybe she's just trying to fool me by acting like she's good at games and stuff. 

I have neither of those things.

She games too, although not as much as me. If your GF do not like that you game, dump her. I mean seriously people should not be together if they are not compatible, or not for any longer period of time. Just tap that til you get tired, dump her, go back to gaming ;) 
 
And prioritizing is total BS. If she does not want you to do something you enjoy, tell her to fuck off. She should do something SHE wants instead of bugging you about entertaining her.

Dunno, cant hear her over my turtle beach headset.

She usually doesn't mind, but it can come up in an argument (on something totally unrelated of course). I am hoping for the Kinect to get her into gaming, she did play a little Sega and Sonic Racing with te kids but that is about it. She spends a lot of time on the internet though so she doesn't crave my attention all the time.

My husband's in the other room grinding his Warlock. I'm typing this in between Civ V turns. 
 
I...what was the question again? Nobunaga's being a bit of a prick.

No one I know plays games and most think its a complete waste of time. Which is good in one sense because It means I have alot of different hobbies and things to do with my friends other than playing games all night. I think if I did meet a girl who liked games more than me it would freak me out lol

I don't have to worry about it.  I play games and do pretty much what I want to do.

When she's around, my gaming grinds to a halt.  Still
use the Xbox for Netflix at least.  I got a free weekend
coming up at least..

My girlfriend games too.  In fact when she gets a new game she disappears for a few days. 
 
I don't play online games though.

No, but thats because i don't do it that often. Only a couple hours a week.

my wife and i have a pretty good thing worked out. 
 
family time with the baby from 5 till 8 on weeknights and after 8pm we go to our personal spaces to do our own things. 
she watches medical dramas and  makeover shows and plays on facebook, i go play video games and watch discovery/history channel.  

My girl is great. We just finished everything on boarderlands together. Plus she just picked up and finished my copy of arkham asylum. 
Its a major way for us to relax together, sitting down with a nice cup of tea and a game like co-op res 5. 
I wouldn't live with someone who didn't like one of my big hobbies. 
 
Bet my girl could beat you all at cod too haha :P

I couldn't game without them!
I am of course implying that my girlfriend is my hand, which I masturbate with. (frequently)
