I've known several girls who loved just sitting watching me play video games. Now I guess those kinds of gals watch a lot of live streams on twitch..

Thinking

I should start live streaming.

True. My gf definitely isn't into video games, but we have other things that we're into and she respects why I like first person shooters.

Meh if I had a boyfriend who loved playing nintendo. I am sure I could find something to put in my mouth to occupy my time while he plays Angel Blush

When I've had a BF and I've been playing games he gets bored and wants my attention but expects me to sit patiently and watch him play.

Why don't you just play at the same time?

I wasn't interested in the type of games he played.

He liked strategy games and SIMS style games. I'm no good at strategy that way and SIMS bores the hell out of me.

I think I played a sim game once. The object of the game is to pee and shower and work and sleep, right?

Yeah, what's so fun about that? Plus there's about a zillion expansion packs that all add new skins and that's it.

It's a weird game. I don't really get the point
