My girlfriend wants me to stop playing!

[stupidsucker]

For the most part I agree with Hank, but no one here has any idea of her true intentions.

She may very well be a controling bitch, or the OP for all I know is exagerating on her requests.

Communication is the key for both of you. All of the stuff said about holding your own and not giving in have merit, but there is a fine line between being a stuborn ass and being strong willed.

Her asking you to cut out poker to 3 hours a week if it is your job is not much of an option if you want/need to play more. Comprimise in the middle ground, make her feel special and make sure she knows that she > poker, but poker is still important to you.

I am curious on the relationship status of the advice giving from the posters in this thread.
