I have a girlfriend of 5 months that pretty much lives with me when I'm at home and she's been good. SO FAR.
Due to my boredom on my off months I started playing a an online game, and fair enough I play it a faor chunk of the day, but I still eat out with gf, go to gym and, see movies and other activities, i don't prioritise it over anything. But all my gf can do is complain about how I'm addicted I am to it.
My friend gifted me something on the game for Christmas so in turn I spent $20 on the game to gift back and get myself something nice. When I started my girlfriend mentioned how you can buy cards for the game in convenience stores and i said thats silly, now she just lost her sht because I spend $20 on a game, saying if she sees me spend anymore she will cut up my card, because I cut up her credit card because she was $1800 in debt, not slowing down and worked 2-3 days a week.
Am I unhealthily addicted? Or am I justified in wanting my girlfriend to stop living at mine so she doesnt loser her shyt when she sees what I do to pass some time while I uave a month off work? You decide.

Obviously you have the right to have some free time to do what you want OP, gaming or otherwise. Just try to restrict the amount of time you spend on it and make sure you reserve some quality time for your GF too. I had a friend who was addicted to online gaming, Runescape, COD etc. and it legit ruined his relationship with his GF of 5+ years (the mother of his kid) she wasn't getting enough attention and started cheating on him and since then his life his spiralled down hill and he's got in to all types of sh*t. So yes it is okay to game but try to do it in moderation. Explain to your GF that it is a hobby/release for you.

Sounds like you are justifying it to yourself with that blog post, so you probably won't listen to the misc anyway, but...
Played a ton of WoW in college. Hundreds of hours.
Spent more money on it than a college kid should.
Had a lot of fun times with friends.
Look back at all that time as wasted and wish I spent it doing something to better myself.
That one brah is right, if you spend more time playing a game than on her, you bet your ass she's gon sloot around without you.Broke both legs and ankles crew.
Recover gains or die trying crew.

To blame him gaming for her cheating is idiotic...its HER fault she cheated if she needed his attention 24/7 then she was just an attention seeking sloot that would jump on any dick that showed her attention
OP you should try to get her to play with you too
I was always envious of bros that played WoW and ended up having their GF/wife play it too...so jelly

Compromise with her. I play csgo. Not as much as I use to but about 20 hours or so a week is dedicated to the game. My g/f thinks that is overkill, but I had to talk with her about it and put her in my shoes. She doesn't mind that I play now, but when she calls or something to at least acknowledge her and not ignore her. It has worked out well. She has always liked gaming so I ended up building her her own gaming PC and now we play together sometimes when she comees over.

This relationship will never, ever work out. if she has such a problem with how you spend your free time, it's not likely to change.
As someone else said, she is partly jealous that she doesn't have anything she enjoys so much as to spend a few hours on it, and she's mad you give anything else attention other than her.
I've always loved online games, as I think most gamers do, and I've had GFs who hated, some who played with me, and some who are indifferent, but at the end of the day you have to be happy with yourself AND she has to be happy with that person too.
tldr: No contact
PS: What's the game?

Be more specific. How many hours a day/week do you play?

So you're saying your 'friend' should have not got an addiction to gaming, so he could still be with a woman who thought that (as the mother of his child) it was okay for her to cheat on him because she wasn't getting enough attention?
I agree completely with your concept of 'getting addicted to games is bad' but the example you used is awful, your friend's troubles with gaming addiction merely highlighted the poor decisions he had made previously, such as wifey-ing a whore and having a kid with her.
Anyway to OP. Your relationship sounds unhealthy, awful even. Lack of communication and two people that should probably sit down together and talk about why they are together. Sounds like a terrible relationship, you're young (and called TheSlutSlayer on here LOL) and she sounds like a future 'Full-time Mummy' on Tinder where half of the Misc will run through while her sucker of a beta husband is at work.

Don't let your girlfriend decide what you should or should not do.
It's like "baby you don't need to workout you are JUST fine baby don't do it" and then she cheats you on an other guy.
At the end of the day you have to accept the consequences. She can leave you any time but then again is she worth it?
brb you still have a job, still have friends, still go out, still working out so why not?
brb just do your own things if she doesn't like it she can leave.

m9-1, if you're addicted to gaming now, how long do you think it will take until you move onto harder drugs, like the marijuanas drug?
But in all seriousness, if she's not chilll then it's her problem. Find a chick that let's you do you ?????? be happy ????????? profit. Word."Anyone can do anything if they put their mind to it - but not everyone can put their mind to it for as long as it takes." Me - 2011

Why did you cut up her credit card in a 5 month relationship. She's probably bitter as **** about that, if someone is childish enough to keep spending while in debt let them and leave them don't go all Mr. Fix her.
Jesus dude you guys are moving so freaking fast, she's almost living with you, now she's regulating how you spend your free time.
You're both screwed. Doomed relationship with no boundaries of peace.
