Again, like I said, "Even then, it could be different for him. For example, if he's playing games for a few hours a day after work during free time when there's nothing else for him to have to do while his GF is out, that would be fine. But maybe not to his GF. Which is why I think it depends on a lot more than just the amount of time they spend on it to figure out excessive amounts..." So, what you said doesn't matter as I already said it could be different for him. But we also don't know how much time is actually spent on playing video games. The article didn't say. For all we know, he is only playing for a couple of hours. Unless the article explicitly states otherwise, which is doesn't. It says, "He spends a lot of time on the couch playing video games" which can mean anything depending on the person saying it... Again, some people would call and hour or two a lot...

Combine this with a sloppy and lazy lifestyle you're focusing on the wrong thing here. It's not about video games.

I think it depends on the reason for those things, like I said in my first post of this topic. Many of those things could have valid reasons. And I said that the BF of this article may not have all those things about him. The article is about 12 different signs. But the GF who wrote the original letter only mention her BF having about 3 or 4 of them. Did you even read what I wrote?

So she looks at those signs and see what applies to her to see if it is indeed as bad as she says. The list wasn't the article writer listing what's wrong in her relationship. It's signs to look for the letter writer to look for to see if she is dating a manchild.

Having valid reasons for negative behavior doesn't mean it's worth tolerating in a relationship. If you can't take care of yourself properly why should someone else?
