It's possible to make a non-gamer come around. But probably not with Madden or CoD. Still, I'm of the opinion that you should make an effort to understand and try to appreciate your SO's hobbies. You might get surprised.
My fiancee isn't really into games, but I have been able to "cross lines" with her when it comes to point and click adventure games like Syberia. I don't try too hard or anything, I think it's nice that we have separate hobbies that allow us to be individuals. But it is a nice rare treat when we can enjoy something one of us loves together.

My girlfriend wasn't allowed to play video games growing up and was taught that they would rot her brain out. We had a pretty heated discussion over whether or not games would be allowed in the house if we had kids in the future.
Eventually, her mind started to change when I was able to tell her about some of the games I really liked; how they weren't all just mindless shooting aliens things (though those can be fun!), but that some of them were really pushing the envelope in terms of interactive storytelling. She had no idea they could be like that, and really started to warm up to the idea.
A couple months ago, she wanted to know if there was a way she could watch me play. I picked out Knights of the Old Republic 2 and started streaming it for her over Twitch whenever we have free time (which isn't too often, unfortunately). She's a huge Star Wars nerd, it would give her the opportunity to choose an avatar and dialog options, and it's got a kooky philosophical bent I really love. Plus one of the best written female character in a video game. She totally loves it and now she wants to see more games. And agreed that any kids we pop out in the future can play, too (as long as it's age appropriate, which I agree). So there is hope

You picked the best Star Wars game, and the best woman in KotOR 2. All praise Kreia

Preach! Sara Kestelman is amazing, too.
Is there any other way to play the game?

I just saw that movie last week and loved it, think I'll give the series a shot
Yea I've been meaning to watch it. One of my buddies keeps talking about how good it is. I gotta finish Breaking Bad first though.

The best way to experience KOTOR II.
When I read Kreia's dialogue I always imagine it to be read by Kate Mulgrew in her Flemeth voice. Or her Evil Janeway voice.

Damn I feel like that's when it got going.

I was referring more to the pre-relationship period, but yes I agree. Though you could replace [games] with any hobby that is stealing too much time in the relationship dynamic.
Maybe, but I was referring more to the initial courtship period where knowing that you play videogames can be a dealbreaker, or can at least drop their view of you down a few pegs.

Was wondering how long it would take you to show up!
I have a bird chest so it's pretty hard for me to put on upper body weight.
One of my co-workers (former Olympic power lifter) said that I have to do weights to exhaustion if I ever want to put on weight (that is, need my muscle fibers to build and repair or else it's just toning). Maybe that'll work for you too?
THERE WAS A COCK DISCUSSION AND I WASN'T INVOLVED! Sleeping is bad for me it seems.
How many porn stores have you gone through to make a stereotype like that?
According to rumours people actually comment each other in a nice manner and it is considered to be quite a normal thing to do. Come on, who wouldn't want to make someone's day a bit better by giving them a compliment or saying something sweet.
Major is history and minors are art history, museology, ethnology and tourism.
I did go to bed... Damn this place is wicked and full of bad bad influences keeping me up all night.
Hahahahah.

All I have ever visited have had ridiculously sexy females working in there and none of them had a beard.
My Friday will be made of those!
It indeed is! You better keep it when the day comes.It's a promise then
This.

I might like you a bit more now.
Do you also do dishes if properly encouraged to do so?
I am doing my master's thesis to graduate this spring from university. 100-120 pages of academic text are just waiting to be written before that...You're so lucky, you're almost done. ;-; Dispute Resolution sounds very fancy. Good luck in the internship!
Probably haven't been here enough to call myself a NYorker

Happy birthday good mister!I just got a series of birthday gifts designed to troll me from my coworkers. Including a bottle of mayo, a ridiculous pink shower cap and a bottle of "sparkling grape drink".

I miss your regular avatar =(
when did that happen?
But now you know how sexy I am! And any time I make a post that pisses someone off, they can imagine themselves punching me in the face rather than a Charizard.

I feel like the group participating in RPJ this year is much, much smaller than last year's. Where is everyone? 
Are you saying my face isn't? D:

Ok, admittedly it was more of a potential cock discussion, but if I would have been here we could have made it flourish!

do you mean dishes as in taking advice on how to do certain foods or cleaning afterwards? If so yes to both, I'm not a messy person so I always clean around the house.
that's the worst kept secret

You better keep yourself safe behind locked doors or someone might try to steal you.
