View Full Version : Single and a MW addict?

I was just wondering how other single MW addicts balanced their single life and their MW addiction?

I just canceled a date tonight with an excuse about having to work so I could focus on the boss event. I have too many other things I'm doing this weekend so I needed to make sure I had some MW time. Haha.

So let's hear how the rest of you do it.

That's disgraceful Ranger haha..

It'll be awkward if it turns out she plays as well and she reads this thread..

im not single but personally i would never pass up the chance to get it on, especially for a game! that boss can go beat himself for all i care theres a warm woman waiting! some people are just wired that way i guess.

Well, I think we know WHY you're still single :cool:

Start an account for her and explain camping... just in case :)

My solution? Turn your significant other into a MW addict so you can have something to talk about, and can both ignore each other equally!

Well you still have to balance it when you're married too. Otherwise, I will be back to single life! Lol

I collected cash while on a date before and got caught. Surely did not go too well afterward LOL

When I first started MW, I was in a 6 year relationship (she is who actually got me playing). It was much easier then.

Now I'm always trying to sneak in some MW time when it's one of the first few dates so they don't think I'm a nerd. Lol

WHAT?? Lol....I'm not passing judgement at all, but that is nuts. I like this game, but I would never pass up an opportunity for intimacy for it. EVER. I know how to multitask well enough not to neglect my social life for a game. Can't you play for a couple of hours and then go out???

Your faction members must be loving you right now. The date you cancelled on...not so much.

Lol. I don't think I'd ever cancel a date just for modern war. I'm pretty glued to my iPad but whenever I have company, I put it down to stay social. I can understand canceling a date for modern war only if the girl was a 6 or lower. I do like peppers response though, get the other addicted to it so you can both ignore each other equally.

I don't mind the judgement. I have a date almost every single night so I don't feel like I'm missing out.

Get married.
After that you will have plenty of time for MW.

^^^ Yes, I completely agree! lol

Of course, this theory goes out the window once there is a 2-year old in the house. So get married, but don't have kids. lol

I guess Ranger you will be calling to your office and while "coughing" you'll say "I really feel bad today, I guess I'll stay home and take some pills, hope to get better in few days".

By some coincidence WD event will be in progress then.

But hey - dates every night? Sounds more like work :) Not much of romantics for sure. I just wonder how your date was looking like when you were on your way to Forum Champion :)

If more seriously - I'd second what SP wrote.

I prefer for you that you should choose the "ladies first," be a gentleman, & MW second. And don't be a man whore like in that comedy movie, I forgot the name of that actor.

Its just a suggestion Ranger, no biggie!? Lol!

I think it is more gentleman-like to have canceled than to have her suffer through my timers going off. Or canceling on her if she was a "6" for a "10". :D

I find myself waking up at 3 in the morning and immediately try to open a crate. The GF does not appreciate it. I traded a 5 year Civilization III addiction for a 1 year Modern War addiction. The Pro's.....I can play MW in the bathroom. The Con's.......This game will end up costing me Hundreds of $$ more by the time I am done with it, and you can't even "win".

Actually, we have established that the only way to "win" is to quit. But since we are all addicts, we continue to lose.

The quote from last night when my phone timer goes off for the boss events, "Let me guess, you have to beat the general again?". I tried to explain it to her once, but there was no way to make it sound cool.

Edit: just added velcro to the back!

My wife laughs every time my timer on phone goes off. She thinks I'm retarded and she's right! Lol. She is sweet though, bought me IPad mini for XMas. Think it was just so I would stop taking her IPad away from her to play my LLP :)

I used to be addicted to MW & now i see higher level has no chance in boss event & specially hackers are everywhere. I'm more into KA now cause they have Limited Quest that can help non-campers higher level player. Gree is trying to balance the higher & lower levels gameplay. I wish they will do it here in MW someday.

I agree about KA. I love the new quest events, but I just don't like KA near as much as MW.

I find it very troubling and sad that anyone would rather play a game then spend time with him or her romantically on a date or in marriage. For me my wife or girlfriend if I had one comes second only to God. Mainly wife.

Being we are all bearing our souls.... I have not passed on a date but have been known to break out the iPad in bed when "cuddle time" enters "sleep time" .... Haven't been caught yet....lol


Also I play constantly while in court....that is how I raised 100 mil in 2 days.... Oh, is anyone surprised I am part of ranger's faction?

Well the wifey knows I play. I actually got permission for 5 vaults and the 100 bucks she spends on hair and nails and pedicures - I can now spend the same on Gold each month. So, she is ok with me playing and even grabbing cash when out but when she wants her time well - I can't mess up a good thing. :)

I'm married but I can definitely see where ranger and others are coming from.

Those first couple days when 3.0 went live, it definitely put a strain on the relationship. The rest of the time my wife is pretty cool about it. If I'm busy/driving/whatever she knows how to kill bosses, open crates, and collect money.

I'm in the trade-off scenario - gold and playing time in exchange for nails, hair, etc. And yes, it's got a lot trickier since MW3!

Most times i feel like that guy on that commercial checking the game on the date with his girlfriend. My wife hated this game after about a week, but after about two months of letting me know her displeasure of always looking down when she was talking to me, she finally resigned to the fact that until i wanted to leave it, this game was here. I`ve tried many methods to stop spending soo much time on it, even deleted the game and all my money buildings on my hlp. the game mysteriously came back on my ipod and eventually the money buildings. Now i am convinced that the only way to curb the time spent on it is to be so strong that if you dont collect no one can take what you have. Hence....Third Minister. Now I can spend more time with my wife. Plus I bought her levian chocolate diamond earings for Christmas(he went to Jared). She is not angry at the game anymore, and married life is much better than single.l:->
