i will ask her to play but not more than 1 or 2 hour,i tell her our relation get spoiled because of her playing habit.i also like to play but not more than 2 -3 hour,addiction to anything is not good and always put us in trouble.so if she agrees then it is ok and if she not.then i wait for her to stop be herself and then also she not then finally i say that i you not stop playing then i will leave you( but i don't mean that as i love her and not wanted to let her go because of her game addiction) and she stop then it is good for me and she not then also what i can,i can not let her go.

Personally I'm a gamer, and have in the past been addicted to gaming. To cut the internet out from under me would have, at that time, been seen as betrayal, taken as a slap in the face would have made me horribly angry. The best thing, in my opinion. and something that actually worked, was to have someone that cared about me show me what I was ignoring, what I was about to lose. Honestly it could make or break your relationship. And something DOES need to be done to bring the gaming partner back into the real world. IMO, WoW and other online RPG's have downtime to maintain the systems, That would be a more ideal time to bring up the issue. Cutting net should be a last resort.

If I notice that my wife is spending too much time playing internet games, I will bring her outside, have a romantic dinner with her. I won't try to tell her right on her face that she is playing too much games in the internet. I think she will be very defensive about this and may think I am judging her. I will ask her what she would like to do aside from playing online games. Then, from there I will see to it that we will do it together. If she say she likes very much to go outside for a walk, I will take some time and walk with her. In case she forgot, I will remind her. Sometimes, women tend to spend too much time online because they are bored and feel that their husband are very busy to have some time with them.

I will also encourage her to engage in some sports that we can play together and share with her how much it could help our health and at the same time we could also bond. Maybe at the beginning she will be reluctant but I am certain that in the long run she will enjoy doing this and eventually will spend less and less time playing games in the internet.

it depends on why the spouse or partner is playing games. I myself am a freelance writer who writes game reviews and in order to do a good job I need to play until I understand the game. I would be highly insulted if someone turned off my net or limited my work time, for it is my income.

If the spouse or partner is playing the game for fun or to escape family life, heck yes I would have a problem with than and would speak up.
