playing video games

My 61 year old hubby still likes video games. It isn't the only thing he does with his free time (he is a voracious reader); but, he does play video games occasionally. He used to play them with our girls, and even though they have moved out, he still does play.

I don't think this has anything to do with a "lack of maturity" as much as it has to do with women not liking or not understanding "gaming". I don't mind if hubby plays video games. Other women seem to mind a lot that their husband/boyfriends plays video games.

Eggs and Ham ? yeah, that sounds great.
Smoked ham that is thinly sliced would be better.
Ham, green beans, mash potatoes..

[American Constitutionalist]

On second thought ? If it's Smithfield Ham from China ? forget about it.

He only drives fast on rare occasion and If I say anything he’s likely to drive faster:) I am rather a “goody two shoes behind the wheel”, and thank you we do have a very happy marriage 19 years next month.

Pay for the nice dinner at a expensive restaurant..
I even had some women dare to say that the reason why men should pay ? it's because he should pay to be in her presents.. or ? thems are the rules..

By the way ? there are women who play video games just like the men do.

My youngest daughter (25) loves playing video games and is very good at it. I keep hoping she will meet realities version of Leonard Hofsteder (Big Bang Theory).

Maturity is the acceptance of an ever lengthening list of limitations.

[American Constitutionalist]

" The shortfalls that women accuse men of ? are rarely admitted to among women to the world, just among themselves.... at least men are more open about it. "

Or shall I say... those very same shortfalls that women accuse men of ? are the very same shortfalls that are in themselves that they would not dare to admit to the world, but among themselves...
Women accuse men of looking at women ? yet ? women do the very same thing looking at men .... but won't readily admit it.

Has the word “study” had its meaning changed? This is a poll, not a study. And they apparently polled a bunch of man-hating harpies so the results seem a bit biased.

Maturity occurs when a person (man or woman) learns that they are not the center of the universe and begins to serve the One who is.

Well, once again I see everything is women’s fault and women are vastly inferior to men. Just another day on Free Republic.

I think all of us has drove fast before.... but ? he needs to be reminded that the faster you drive the less time you have to react to something on the road.
Driving slower gives you more time to react to different situations on the road.

The reason why most of those women who say men are not mature who play video games are immature themselves.
The reason why they hate their men playing video games is because of they are; selfish, self absorbed, spoiled brats who all they think about is them selves.
It's the " ALL ABOUT ME " attitude.
The reason why they hate their men playing video games is because those men are not spending time with them, and are not letting those women manipulate their men.

OPPS ! the truth comes out...

Yes, those who yell the loudest.
Are those women who yell the loudest about their men playing videos games, for they are the ones who should look in the mirror and see just who are the ones who are the immature ones.

Did you know our own military uses the PlayStation 3 to train our grunts ? and ? our military and some universities use the Playstation 3 for research ? and research for cancer ? Yes, this is true.... they even hook up thousands of PS3s to use for research for cancer.

[American Constitutionalist]

So true, so true... that's what happens as you age... you become more aware of your limitations and frailties.

That is what I was trying to comply. Apparently, I didn’t communicate it very well.

Thanks for the response.

[American Constitutionalist]

Actually ? in the last 40 or so years men have felt that way in this world that it's all the men's fault.
Have you not heard spoken ? even from Hillary Clinton herself ? " Women are morally superior than men "
