Unfort...I completely understand your dilemma, Mary. Unfortunately, I don't believe it will get any better. My husband will be 50 next month. A couple of years ago, we finally hooked up to high speed. My old boss introduced me to facebook and the wonderful game of "Farmville"! He became jealous of my new-found love until I convinced him to open his own account--Big Mistake!!! He became competitively obsessed! He was up all night planting and plowing, friend and neighbor requesting, moving up faster in level than anyone else. He even got to the point where he would ignore my requests for items so I could not advance. That's if I was lucky enough to get on. He would actually throw a temper-tantrum if anyone else was on the computer. I tried everything from reverse psychology to passive-aggression--nothing worked. So I started playing "Frontierville". Same thing. Finally, I just gave up, saying it was taking up too much time and it wasn't fun anymore. I blocked my games.<br /><br />Buy Sophie another cube.<br /><br />Getting him to admit to his addiction will not solve the problem: It only leads to enabling-(You know I have an addiction, so why do you keep bugging me about it? It's MY life.)lol<br /><br />I don't know if this helped. Maybe somewhere the Good Lord will give you some insight on what to do.<br /><br />God Bless!
