Ladies… If you really want to learn about your man’s personality, hang around him when he’s playing video games.

The way he plays his games is the exact same way he’s going to interact with YOU….. um… assuming that he cares as much about YOU as he does his VIDEO GAMES….. which isn’t likely. Read the rest of this entry »
