[QUOTE="Herve, post: 2733182, member: 670263"] Don't worry, it's not you. I've had friends who are supposed to be over to see me but they just live on facebook. One just sat in my living room looking at facebook the whole time, barely registering that I was there. It's the height of rudeness and selfishness. Another time, I was supposed to meet with some friends in a pub, and three of them had brought their Nintendo DS and linked up for a game of some babyish crap, while me and two of their girlfriends just sat there, looking awkwardly at each other, asking ourselves, 'how old are they?' and who plays the Nintendo DS in the pub?' It's very sad, and nowadays I would mock them and people like your boyfriend, who is 31 - not because they are still playing with toys, but really because they're adults and should know when to put their toys away and engage in face-to-face interaction. You need to confront him and telling him to grow up, be social or you'll find someone who isn't plugged in to the Matrix. These people need to grow up. Skylinez - that was a good example of a strawman argument. [/QUOTE]
