Lately I have read that video games are causing more problems in relationships then ever before. With the newer generation of young adults that were raised playing video games this is an obvious issue. Countless hours playing games that don't get you anywhere are bound to cause problems. Here is my rule of thumb on how much time is okay for playing video games. The number of hours spent playing video game should never exceed the time spent making love in your relationship. Now that includes foreplay and after play into the mix for time spent making love. Use this method to keep your partner a little more in tune to your relationship then to his/her game. If your partner is addicted to gaming then you might find games that the two of your can play together and then set a rule that you only play when you both can play. Then also make it a point that you have specific times for dates and intimacy without any games on that day. The point being you have to put gaming in it's place, it might be fun and exciting every once in a while but when it is hurting your relationship you need to take measures. So put a lock on your xbox, and start focusing on things that make your relationship fun and exciting.
