"She thought I would grow out of it": Wife mocks husband's hobbies despite him being openly passionate about gaming since the beginning of the relationship, says he's "overreacting" when he considers divorce over insults

There is a ridiculous notion that some things are meant for children and that adults who enjoy those things are immature. Anime fans, for example, are often judged for their interest in Japanese animation. While it might be true that the first anime TV shows that aired in the US were directed at children, nowadays, the genre has expanded quite a bit. There are anime shows that are much too graphic and intense for children or that have mature, complicated themes that would be too boring or puzzling for a young audience.

In our story today, a woman mocks her gamer husband for his hobbies. This comes as a major shock to him as he has been quite open about about his nerdy interests since the very beginning. However, she confesses that she did not realise that this would be a life-long passion. Get all the details by scrolling down below.

Similar to anime, gaming is often seen (by people who only played Mario Kart a handful of times as a kid) as a hobby for children. They do not realise that even some table top board games are way too complicated for kids and are aimed at adult audiences.

No on wants to be with a meanie, which is what our protagonist's wife is. That is simply not how you talk to your life partner and teammate.
