I'm turning to you because soon I will not know what to do and I'm hoping for tips here.
My boyfriend is almost 30 and has been playing a computer game since he was a teenager. He told me that even then he was addicted and played all day.
Unfortunately, he hasn't gotten over that yet and still plays today when he has nothing else to do. It happened so often that when I work in the home office for 8 hours and he has a day off, he plays on the laptop all the time.
We've talked about it many times and most of the time he wants to stop knowing he has a problem. He's really intelligent and knows a lot. But if a situation arises again in which he is bored, he is immediately back in front of the game. It's starting to affect our relationship. He's often in a bad mood when he can't play, which of course affects me too.
Can you help me? I would be really grateful for every tip!
Tell him that he can only play for a certain TIME. If he doesn't, you have to break up. If he doesn't want to be helped, it's his own fault.
Thank you for your answer.
There's no other way. It's like alcohol or drug addicts.
