Married men, how is your gaming life?
Hi, I am 27M from Pune. I have been living with my single mother and younger brother since 2014. My mother is very much hostile towards games and strongly hates it yet I play whenever she isn't around. I know this sounds ridiculous but it is what it is. It's hard to change her mind. We are a small middle class family and after I graduated in 2020, I got a job as a QA tester at Ubisoft. I have been into games since then and I loved it. My mother however hated the job, her statement being "you are an engineer and you shouldn't be playing games" and also due to the pay and that's true, so I had to quit in 2022.
Now, I have a job and I am in a marriage age and I hope after marriage things will start to change and I might get some freedom towards gaming.
So, I wanted to ask the married folks, how is your gaming life? Have you ever faced such resistance towards gaming? Did it change after marriage?
I know it all sounds too dumb, but I am really sorry I just don't know how to put it properly as it is my first post here. I just want to know your experiences. Thanks for understanding.
