*he found out when he was the little spoon and woke up to me beating Sephiroth

[–]WeLoveKanjimari 73 points74 points ago

"What the hell? You...do things? While I'm unconscious for long periods of time? Instead of sitting there in silence?!"

wtf

[–]andrzejellis 35 points36 points ago

I used to go out with a dude who fell asleep while we were on skype every single night. Sometimes I wouldn't end the call and the next morning he'd wake up to the sound of my dog barking over the internet.

[–]theislandking 12 points13 points ago

This is the sweetest thing. ;A;

[–]silverdrake3 2 points3 points ago

My friend and her overseas boyfriend (long story) do this too. They'll skype each other in the mornings (12 hour difference, so two mornings) and wake each other up.

[–]LuxNocte -1 points0 points ago

Sorry...12 hour difference and they have the same morning? You mean one works at night?

[–]silverdrake3 0 points1 point ago

No, they will essentially alternate waking the other up. Afternoon for her is morning for him and vis-versa.

[–]monnayage 0 points1 point ago

12 hour difference, so 8 a.m. for one person is 8 p.m. for the other.

[–]Xevkin 0 points1 point ago

There are much worse reason to be broken up with. The chaff must be separated from the wheat!

[–]TheOldOak 31 points32 points ago

Hell, I would be proud you found a way to multitask so efficiently.

[–]Writerblock17 24 points25 points ago

I would've been honored that you chose to indirectly share your FFVII experience with my unconscious body.

Wait. Is that weird?

[–]demonretard[S] 22 points23 points ago

NO THAT RULES

[–]Writerblock17 6 points7 points ago

We've officially bonded.

[–]Ponjo 21 points22 points ago

Isn't that the part where he asks you to marry him?

[–]kernster 3 points4 points ago

...or possibly the part where you role play using your sexytime "Omnislash" on him?

[–]gmap516 16 points17 points ago

Hahaha. That GIF. My ex and I would cuddle and I would lay next to him playing pokemon or something on my phone because I'm not a napping person.

[–]gmap516 9 points10 points ago

Note: He really liked that I would lay there with him.

[–]MintsSomeone's Smizmar 7 points8 points ago

My boyf and I cuddleknot such that I can't move and have to lay there awake and bored and without entertainment while he persistently snuggles to keep me near him.

It's the worst.

[–]scurvebeard 14 points15 points ago

First world gaymer problems.

[–]Athildur 9 points10 points ago

I could think of worse things :P

[–]gmap516 2 points3 points ago

D'awwwwww

[–]Emrim 69 points70 points ago

Worst break up reason ever.

It's my cake day? Shit... I need content... ummm... today's xkcd is good.

[–]elcarathRobot Anatomy 16 points17 points ago

Today's XKCD is, in fact, enormous.

[–]brentbentkuoi 13 points14 points ago

I thought it was kind of a drag.

[–]elcarathRobot Anatomy 2 points3 points ago

[–]LuxNocte 1 point2 points ago

kind of a drag [FIXED]

[–]pokemonredblue 0 points1 point ago

I can't stop clicking and dragging... I need to find the end...

[–]nikko83 12 points13 points ago

What in the actual fuck? What was so offensive to him that he ended a relationship over that? I'm sitting here seriously confused over this. More details, OP? Did he say anything specific as to why he broke it off?

[–]demonretard[S] 11 points12 points ago

he was really insecure and desired all of my attention. all in all, this was the cherry on the cake of me ignoring him by pursuing my hobbies. wait, cherry on the cake? this is thing?

[–]nikko83 33 points34 points ago

Holy shit dude. This guy did you a favor. That sounds familiar...really familiar

[–]demonretard[S] 6 points7 points ago

oh man that rules

[–]digmachine 6 points7 points ago

agreed. WTF

[–]doryfishie 0 points1 point ago

icing on the cake, cherry on top...I have no idea. English can be weird. :P

[–]whitericeturkeyslice 7 points8 points ago

Should have been XIII! Gawd, you are so unthoughtful! (Also hugs and some birthday cake...not your birthday cake I'm sharing mine. :P)

[–]demonretard[S] 0 points1 point ago

happy birthday!

[–]whitericeturkeyslice 0 points1 point ago

:)

[–]Rongoose 4 points5 points ago

I don't even understand...

[–]DeeperThanGlitzCats are just trying to show off 6 points7 points ago

I think this about sums it up.

[–]CalistaF 9 points10 points ago

Thats a problem? Are you sure he wasnt just straight?

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points ago

I would've found that adorable. Now if it were IX, I'd be fighting over the psp instead of sleeping. Game's all about item economy and putting Freya and Amarant together to constantly regen HP and MP during battle. Who the fuck needs items, anyway?

Edit: just realized that I would love to cuddle while playing the Tetra Master mini-game. Who's with me?

[–]tabris 4 points5 points ago

My lineup was always Garnet, Zidane, Vivi and Steiner: Max damage, just get the fight over already. Game didn't last long with that combo.

Seriously love IX, still the one I recommend to anyone wanting to know what the series is like. And that ending. I bawl like a little girl watching that. Want to play it again but will need hugs at the end. Any takers?

[–]andrzejellis 0 points1 point ago

I'm offering hugs and cuddles for a moderate fee. Have to cover travel expenses, after all...

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Garnet got on my nerves. I rocked Zidane, Vivi, Freya, and Amarant. No idea who in their right minds would use Quina.

[–]illusioncaster 4 points5 points ago

I'd be upset if you didn't ;P

[–]James_Hacker 3 points4 points ago

So, does this mean you're looking for a new bf?

[–]scyther1 2 points3 points ago

....why is that a big deal sounds like something my crazy ex gf would say before i came out XD

[–]Dandamanten 1 point2 points ago

He broke up with you over a videogame...doesn't sound like a very stable relationship

[–]TophTheMagicDragon 2 points3 points ago

How...... this is a deal breaker!?

[–]cedon 2 points3 points ago

That really is a stupid reason to break up over. He's asleep and thus it should not matter. There is no difference between you playing PSP and reading after he went to sleep.

Now that I think about it, it is a little bit selfish of him too. He expects you to do what he wants when he's asleep. You could feel wide awake and what then? He expect you to just lay there with him out like a light?

[–]MADEDITOR05 0 points1 point ago

there's a post here for you http://lagays.tumblr.com/

[–]demonretard[S] 2 points3 points ago

I FINALLY FOUND IT. SO GOOD

[–]MADEDITOR05 0 points1 point ago

: ) I'm glad you like it.

[–]DeeperThanGlitzCats are just trying to show off 1 point2 points ago

It's just so good...I can't stop laughing...

[–]Khyrdantai 1 point2 points ago

Is there more backstory to this?

[–]cassius_longinus 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, OP, I want to know whether it was hate specifically directed to FF7 or "video games while sleeping" in general... as if that were even in the category of things generally to break up over.

[–]demonretard[S] 20 points21 points ago

it's because i "cared more about playing some game than spending time with him" of course. AS IF A GOLD CHOCOBO WILL BREED ITSELF!

[–]cassius_longinus 6 points7 points ago

I don't even play FF, all I know about it the series is stuff I pick up on from my roommate, but the answer is obvious: Fuck bitches, get gold chocobos.

[–]stiligFilled with elbow grease and moxy 1 point2 points ago

I remember when I bred my first gold chocobo to get knights, 12 years ago. Good god.

[–]A_Cat_ 0 points1 point ago

i would find that to be a reason to marry you :3

[–]RenoNYCMirrorland 0 points1 point ago

i play league when he passes out.

[–]Orimos -1 points0 points ago

Had to reread the title a dozen times...

Still doesn't make any fucking sense to me.

[–]josephdean21 0 points1 point ago

Seriously? Wow. My ex and my current boyfriend both would play some DS game before bed, and I'd just snuggle up and watch him play until I passed out. You need a better gaymer in your life, sir!

[–]KHRoxasPowerful Muscular Contraction 1 point2 points ago

I'm more impressed that you were able to play it while cuddling without your arm dying or waking him up.

[–]scurvebeard 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, see, that's actually a step up for me.

I slip out and tiptoe to my laptop as soon as the cuddle phase hits critical sleepytime mass.

[–]Kiyuna 1 point2 points ago

That is sweet that he falls asleep with you inside of him.

[–]raistlin7390 0 points1 point ago

Yeah... I would have been playing too. Ruby Weapon must die!

[–]kinglopez 0 points1 point ago

what is the logic behind that? don't take it the wrong way but maybe he was looking for an excuse to breakup with you because that is a really lame reason

[–]johnnystorm 0 points1 point ago

What? I would be like "turn it up!"

[–]marachime 0 points1 point ago

Dude. Fuck him. What does he expect you to do? Stare into his face lovingly for hours and hours?

Who the fuck's gonna stop Seph from destroying the universe?!!

You're awesome, you'll find someone way more suited to you <3

[–]Thatguyfrench 0 points1 point ago

wow, what a douche. You are better off!

[–]Jeigan 0 points1 point ago

Interesting story.

[–]cannedpeople 0 points1 point ago

I would have broken up with you for that, too. Seriously, Final Fantasy 7 is so overrated.

[–]SadCritters 0 points1 point ago

...Shouldn't he be playing with your naughty parts while you play that game?

Er...Maybe that's just me?

[–]digmachine 0 points1 point ago

gaymers and non-gaymers just don't mix. STICK TO YER KIND!!!!

[–]jgonz120 0 points1 point ago

My bf is not a gaymer and I sometimes play 3ds while he goes down on me <_<

[–]InappropriatelyGay 0 points1 point ago

Well, in his defense FFVII is pretty bad... But if it was FFIX I would have married you.

[–]digmachine 2 points3 points ago

VIII was my favorite, then IX. But, I must say, VII hit some emotional depths that the others never quite got back to. Red XIII going back to his home village = TEARS YO

[–]InappropriatelyGay 1 point2 points ago

IMO, VII never hit any emotional depths. On the contrary I felt all the characters were bland and one-dimensional. I did enjoy Red XIII but apart from that one event he didn't really progress much. Cloud on the other hand doesn't progress at all, he is just silent and is essentially just a plot device they kept using but never really added character to. Now take this to other FF games like IX where Vivi is an unsure little character looking up to the main character but is told he was a defective product of war who will die very soon. He overcomes his depression and in some regards, surpasses Zidane as the hero of the story and even helps him bring him back.

Hell, there is even better character development in games older than VII. Tera/Celes/Locke/Setzer/Rydia/Cecil/Kain's transformations over their respective games are superior.

[–]demonretard[S] 2 points3 points ago

was only playing vii because i never had and wanted to get the hype. I DIDN'T GET IT, ix is still will always be my favorite MARRY ME

[–]ParanoydAndroid 0 points1 point ago

Yes! I think the VII love is mostly nostalgia based, because I just couldn't get into it at all, but IX is absolutely awesome.

[–]ViaLime 0 points1 point ago

No, marry ME! IX has been my favourite since the day it came out! Also, your ex was dumb, I'm all for playing videos games if someone falls asleep on me, or vice versa. :3

[–]InappropriatelyGay 1 point2 points ago

OK! But you have to dress up as Zidane and I get to dress up as Vivi.

[–]demonretard[S] 3 points4 points ago

wait are you going to get really depressing and self-reflective on me all the time

[–]InappropriatelyGay 3 points4 points ago

You know if you are going to start that I'm just going to make you put on the Quina outfit.

[–]demonretard[S] 6 points7 points ago

WHAT LIKE FREAKY FOOD SEX I MEAN I'M HUNGRY I'M DOWN

[–]MajorWedgeChocolate Chocobo -1 points0 points ago

Mmm dat Quina tongue.

[–]johnnystorm 0 points1 point ago

Do not downvote this redditor for their opinion! FF7 is my favorite because of nostalgia/other associations, but I went back and played all of them and I can see why people would be disappointed with it after playing 6.
