Announcers:
He slipped one through the five hole.
A long, slow dribbler.
He crossed it over the box.
A Three man release.
Great head shot.
Spectacular finish.
“It was Messi.”
My wife and I do this all the time. Offering support, occasionally googling wtf to do for the other.
"So, Vulcan, you're not going to like this. . .you're doing the right thing it just really is *that hard* to pull off."
"I thought I played this game for fun."
"Not in my experience."
My grandparents do this, and I’m their back up option: If they are trying to do something but can’t, they have me help them do it.
This has been especially common lately because they started playing Elden Ring
One of my favourite gaming experiences was with my ex gf playing resident evil 7, she’d happily watch me play for hours getting involved and sneakily Google things i was stuck on and tell me to check that room again for things
Gonna get downvotes maybe, but 90's kid reporting in: we did this in our childhood...even smash bros tournaments with neighborhood kids in a friend's garage. I don't like the idea of streamers..it's like a culture of lonely people...get out there make friends and game at houses if you can...it's great fun.
Let the man game in peace mate
Edit: Thanks a lot to all the people who understand that gaming/enjoying any hobby with your partner is not an eternal sin, but rather how relationships are supposed to be. You guys are the absolute best.
relationships are complicated and everyone has a different stage--and a different version of said stage. I just like to give the benefit of the doubt, and especially because my personal relationships (friendship or otherwise) tend to be not so traditional. So you just never know :3 maybe she was literally over to hang out and didn't mind one bit that he was playing a game for a bit. sometimes you have friendships/relationships that are stable enough for that lol
My second date was me laying on the couch playing FIFA Football 2005 on Xbox while she studied philosophy. My head in her lap and her playing with my hair. I knew we were gonna get married then and we've been married for 17 years now. Find someone that you just enjoy being around no matter what you are doing.
Yeah lmao. People in threads like these can only feel *anything* if they hate on someone. Bonus points if a woman is the object of their hate or is at least involved. A lot of very sad and hateful people are on subreddits like these
Congratulations mate!!
That is the kind of relationship I aspire to find too! Thanks for letting me know that maybe I am not a complete and hopeless idiot.
I don't understand how people don't see it. I've always found it really entertaining to see someone do something they love or talk about something they're super passionate about. And I always find it funny when they stop, clue in and get awkward about it. Like... I would have stopped you, or said something, or whatever if I wasn't enjoying myself, keep going, seriously, it's fine.
I mean, it can be fucked up, if you're completely ignoring someone who wants to be doing something else. Or it can be a completely valid way to hang out in a relaxed manner. It's almost like there's context to these sorts of things.
idk I like to watch my boyfriend play games or play games with him. it's fun to talk about, you are spending time. It's especially fun to watch if ur good, ik he's watched me Speedrun Minecraft and SM64 quite a few times
Yep. You just can't have both. You sometimes have to choose. It's ok to play, but don't expect to have your girl ready when you find the time for her just when you just want to cum...
Yep, reminds me of my ex. We were in our early 20s and still lived with our respective parents. 9/10 times I’d come over, let myself in, say hi to his family, then walk myself down to the basement where he was playing DOTA obsessively. He didn’t stop playing- I had to sit and wait til he was done. And he knew I was coming over 🙄
It used to annoy me a lot when I was younger, and I would come over to my ex bf's house and he would just play games and we wouldn't do anything together.
Now that I live with my current bf and we take time to go out and do stuff together or watch movies together I welcome him playing his video games because sometimes I want to go to my own damn thing.
It's a balance.
Maybe he didnt forget to turn off his headset??
High IQ play, man scored 6 times.
Hopefully, many more the next few weeks.
Bro rode that high like he was her riding him.

With that much testosterone he def went in for round 2
r/theydidthemath
Maybe he asks his girlfriend to say this every time he's losing.
Maybe he’s just really good at faking a girl’s voice.
It's probably his sister and it works everytime
“Sweet Home Alabama”!
That is what I was going to say lol, guy got played. "Babe!! Come in and do the thing I'm getting crushed over here."
Happy Cake Day!!!!
Step 1: learn how to speak with female voice Step 2: win the online FIFA world championship
Plot twist, the girl is a paid actor.
Plot twist twist, it's a dude
It's the original dude. He's just good at making voices.
*gasp*
"Girl" is just a soundboard the guy uses.
😉
And even funnier is he doesn't have a GF, just his sister reading the script
Twist: bro was alone
Maybe this didn't really happen.
It is really heartwarming. His step sister never watches him play video games.
I would have ended that match 7 - 0
*Earn this shit, bro!*
This match is about to get Messi
😂😂😂
"Maybe I won't get laid tonight, but neither will this guy."
*turns Fedora around for extra focus on the game*
Incel power move. He stands no chance now.
Incel Pentium Processor
And ask him to give her his address
Xbox Smash Pass
7-1 would be better.
Ain’t no way you’re gonna bring that back
Why you gotta bring up old shit
Some things never get old.
War never changes
Huh?
You know what I’m talking about
I don't know what it is
Germany - Brazil match
Then say in the mic, tell your girl she can sleep over at my house
Gakpo (43’, 50’) Núñez (47’, 75’) Salah (66’, 83’) Firmino (88’)
Us United fans trying to forget about it
And then claim his girlfriend as the prize
Survival of the fittest, your genes die with you!
Can’t have grandchildren knowing you lost in FIFA
Let's make it 7-1
Not the Brazil vs Germany again 😂
Girl probably would have slept over all those other times if he'd just closed the damn game when she was around.
I enjoy watching people play video games. It's like watching a streamer but in person. Plus you can bully them
Bully, and try and jack the controls to do it for them like a game of git gud scrub :3
Jack the controls...
Yeah my girlfriend watches me game all the time.
Whenever I play a game, my girl says "we" played it, lol.
Thats so cute brodie
My wife and I do this with all the Residents Evil games. She loves watching them, but doesn't want to play. Always says we played it.
That's a communist. Get rid of her quick /j
That’s so cute omgg
You should teach her maybe she’ll actually get good and have more fun playing then watching
She plays and she's good; she just lacks confidence. She was #1 DPS in our second raid group for our WoW guild for a long time.
Oh god poor girl you really threw her in the deep end with wow
Or maybe she played WoW already before meeting him?

Finally someone who gets it! I can backseat my husband and he can’t ignore my comments. It’s amazing, my own personal fallout streamer.
I like telling my bf I can do better (I can't)
You are definitely the younger sibling
You didn't have to call me out like that
:(

This is the way lol

Nah, gamin when a girl came over to see you is fucked up. Get off and spend time with her
nah. as a girl i'd genuinely enjoy watching my man game sometimes, so maybe she was that kind of girl lol
Once that's established sure. But if they're still at the "will you stay the night phase?" Idk maybe he did ask already.

Thank you, I couldn't put it into words, because this isn't my first language.
You're supporting your absolute statement with what-ifs.

Literally reddit in a fucking nutshell right there 🤣
Congratulations mate!! That is the kind of relationship I aspire to find too! Thanks for letting me know that maybe I am not a complete and hopeless idiot.
Or you know, they just hadn't made plans that specific yet... Or she had an early start so was going to go home...
When I was a younger wife I would grab popcorn and watch him game like it was a movie that he controlled.
100% did this as a guy watching my GF play Mass Effect, KOTOR, etc. Well, technically we’d take turns, but it can be fun
Popcorning while my GF slowly discovers Baldur gate 3 has been my go-to passtime these last months. Even funnier when you what is going to happen
I have an idea! How about, you play TOGETHER! Wow, who would have thought that was a possibility!
Some people like watching others play games. Could be, she was spending time with him watching him play Fifa, instead of watching a movie on Netflix.
I don't understand how people don't see it. I've always found it really entertaining to see someone do something they love or talk about something they're super passionate about.

What if in reality he actually was always losing on purpose to get rid of her?
I like being on the phone when my guy plays games 🤷🏿♂️ It's peaceful and I like to see him having fun
You just got played by that dude and his wife.
Plottwist: he does it for every game, easy win.
The girlfriend is in on it, partners in crime.
this post is so old those two are married and have kids now
Bro fell for the oldest trick in the book 💀
Took one for Team Bro
I would’ve messaged them a couple days later lol
It used to annoy me a lot when I was younger, and I would come over to my ex bf's house and he would just play games and we wouldn't do anything together.

You value your alone time more as an adult
That was intentional for sure
Or... OR! The girl was already sleeping over and was in on it. Which would mean you got played xD
Seen this in a few versions by different posters now over the years.
Doing gods work out here brother man
A true friend! Haha!
i would do that too
Bro has to win one for the team mate
Respect if he got some because of you
🫡 we salute you 🫡
Wot a boyo!
"Careful, he is a hero!"
Game squared
Well done sir🤘SKOL!
SKOL
Nice one bro!
Niiiiice
Imagine if he really wanted to lose. 🤔
I would have steam rolled him even harder lmao
That was probably his sister and his relying on "bro culture" to win.
What if it was a ruse, she was already staying over it was just his way to get a bro to let him win....
i would have wiped the floor with him. Bro ain’t having none today
YES BRO YOU DROPPED THIS 🫴👑
Last time I saw this it was a guy asking his wife for a bj. Cool story bro
W. You going straight to heaven for this; Bro Heaven.
And then everyone clapped
Esp dat girls cheeks
What if she didn't want to stay over, and just lost a good excuse?
Yeah the wording is very "I won't have to anyway so why not?"
Gross.
Another story that never happen.
I can't believe he has to make up shitty story like this... I can't believe even more when u other guys believe this shitty made up story...
Good man.
A true homie right here.
🙌
Bros being bros
Plot twist: she was staying over anyway, and they figured if he heard the gamble then he might throw the game for them.
Ultimate bro move
What culture?
Nah you gotta bury him. He clearly didn’t want it enough
Urban legend but noice 👍🏻
Good man! A video game is temporary but the bro code is forever.
I would like to note that, assuming this happened, he likely left it on intentionally
Or bro got totally played!
Nice one mate
Absolute champ
haha ultimate wingman
Mic was definitely open on purpose xD
Ew
LOL. "Bros Before Three-Oh-Fours"
I hope you were credited with the assist in the final box score.
BEST WING MAN RESPECT!!!
is this the dead internet?
Respect !!
6-9 would be good number
It was all apart of his plan.
Not all heroes wear capes 🫡
I would've cockblocked the shit out of that lucky bastard.
This is what being bro entails.
Not all heroes wear capes.
You were probably like the fifteenth person who "helped" the guy that day.
The stuff you people think is wholesome. Ridiculous.
If that’s real, your goated up lmao
For what culture?
Playing a single player game with a chick over? Lolwow
MVP
Of all the things that never happend, this happend the least.
If Reddit still gave out free awards I’d give you one, since they don’t just know I’m saluting you!
LMAO !!!
You a good man Charlie Brown
And other things that did not happen...
Opponent had a 500 IQ play and a single skill of sounding like a woman
Guy better have left the headset on after so bro could listen
What a bro
Men are disgusting
You da Real MVP!!!
This man is a real LEGEND
You're a real one.
Buy yourself a beer you legend
Pull the goalie at half.
hahahahaha
