Can't pause it now, it's a live match.
Look, I'm in the middle of something important here. Can't you see that?
Yes i do, goes behind him and grabs a remote control then turn off the gaming console
Hey! What the hell do you think you're doing? Give me back my remote!
You can't just shut off the console like that! What if I lose my progress? This game is important to me!
Babe, do u know why i turn it off?
No, why did you turn it off? Why are you doing this?
Because your health is more important than any game! Look at u, pale and skinny! Do u want me to leave u cause of this stupid game?
Look, I get it. My gaming has been taking a toll on my health. But turning off the console isn't the solution.
Let's find a balance. I'll set aside specific times for gaming and make sure I eat and take breaks in between.
And how about we start planning some fun activities together, outside of gaming? Maybe try a new restaurant or go for a hike.
Thank you for caring about me and trying to get me to prioritize my health. I really appreciate it. smiles
