First some background:
Was in class just now, a Gender Communication class (girl to guy ratio is 4:1) where we had a discussion about men and their faults. Teacher brought up a question she wanted the few men in the class to answer: Would you rather go on a date with a new girl or play a video game? She clearly wanted us to say new girl. Course I said girl, but the other guys were on the fence. It was over for us today when teacher was all like to the girls, "please don't be judgmental." *facepalm*
Anyways, this girl whom the teacher always asks for updates on her pending engagement. She reveals that her fiance used to be a WoW addict, that they've known each other for 3 years. Oh boy, this is where I found it funny that no one in my class seemed to mind/pick up on: She said that her fiance is shy and everything, but that she "trained" him to not be so shy, that he only is comfortable around her. I know it's none of my business what these people do with their lives, but:
1) Only 3 years of knowing each other before marriage?
2) You "trained" your guy to be with you... He's that much on a leash already?
I feel bad for dude, what do you think?

My exactly, dude getting animal treatment smh -
OK the "trained" part is disturbing, but 3 years is not a short time before getting married. lol

he probably won. if he is a shy trained video game addict, he probably had slim chances of picking a decent mate. Does she look good? is she nice to talk to besides being controlling? what are his positive attributes?
being whipped is a good alternative to not having any ? for 10 years due to you lack of confidence and social skills. even if she breaks his pockets for the duration of the relationship, if he rebounds with knowledge and skills to talk to women, he wins in the long run IMO. that is if he really is nothin but a video game addict. -

I'm not training anyone to do anything, but a compromise, yeah. -

She's a babe, but not nice to talk to. One of the guys that said he would rather play video games, she called him out on that in class, talking about how "he should get a girlfriend."
Sure having decade-long ? from a girl is great, but what I have to disagree with is your next sentence. Even if that does happen persay and he can talk to girls with little problem, his bank account is hardened from all the dust collected. -
Of course she "trained" him he's a soft ? ass (ex) game addict, that won't work on no grown ass man
-
Sounds like he won to me.
Guys an antisocial video game addict and found someone (apparently attractive) willing to work with him through it. Thats a huge win. Most people want the finished product and aren't willing to help someone realize their potential/see past the warts. -
? don't give a ? ?

His ? were removed 3 years ago when they met and his life is doomed if he marries this chick. I will never understand how a woman can be attracted to a "yes man". That will get old as soon as she wants him to make a decision and he's unable to & it will only get worse when/if they have children and she feels like she's not only raising kids, but a grown ass man as well. I'm not in the business of "training" anyone but my dog.
btw, how old are they? 3 years is not a short amount of time to learn someone and decide whether you want to marry them. -

Guessing around 22-25 years old -
@ knives amilli, I only see it as a win IF HE saw his "addiction" as a problem. Forcing someone to do something rarely works... even if it's for their own good. The person will eventually resent the control freak and go back to his comfort zone. IMO

He won she lost imo -
3 years seem like enough time to be together before marriage to me.
As far as the "training" thing, or at least that's what she thinks.
A lot of females say or think that. I've heard plenty of females say they like shy guys because they can "train" them to be how they want them to be. -

Three years is a good amount of time. I don't really think that is your problem with it. The problem is if this guy is as "antisocial" as he's described then he probably hasn't experienced ? . All he knows is her.
He should experience more but hey, an actual female (gasp) wants to be with him so why mess that up. But that's why three years seems so short. -
If she thinks he's so shy I wonder how he managed to pull her????
This may be a case where she is giving herself more credit than she actually deserves.
I bet the real story is he played video games almost all day and night before he got with her and when they finally got together he probably just cooled out but still plays his games everyday. Or he may have been a homebody who just chilled all day not that he was shy, and once he got with her it happened naturally. Cuz you're gonna do stuff with your significant other regardless. -
trained....
wtf my dudes... we got to do better than this... -
sex is a weapon
-
I wish a female would use the term "train" in that same context about me...she'd get her feelings hurt real quick
