I'm sure this is something that comes up quite a lot here but the other post I read the lady said her husband was always angry and a total video game addict which I don't think applies to my situation.
My boyfriend is a keen gamer and will play for a few hours at a time, mostly sports related games, but when he is losing he will lash out. He's smashed a hole in our lounge door, broken the arm of a sofa, thrown his controller more times than I can count. The list goes on.
When I try and speak to him calmly and suggest playing something else, watching some tv or going out somewhere I receive a torrent of verbal abuse and I am at my wits end.
He is such a nice guy other than this but it's like once he turns his consoles on he is a completely different person. Removing the consoles from the house isn't really an option as he would never, ever allow it and doesn't see his behaviour as a problem.
This happens nearly every night, I am on the verge of walking away from our relationship if I can't find a way to resolve this.
Thanks for reading
