Would you be mad if your partner sold your videogame(s)?

Oh absolutely. Probably even break up with them since they showed that I cannot trust them. If they go behind my back for games, who knows what else they would do.

 

Yes. I don't really have games I can't just re-download, so I'll substitute my gun.

Yes, I would be mad if my partner sold my gun.

In general, I don't think selling someone else's stuff is a good way to communicate whether something is not working in a relationship. Let's say that you're playing computer games too much (video games are computer games), and your partner doesn't like that. That's a time to negotiate a new strategy or to shitcan the relationship. But selling your partner's things is not the way to communicate an emotional intimacy problem.

 

Definitely. I don't want someone selling my things without my permission. Games or anything else. If they do that I would immediately break up with them for sure.

 

Yes, to "unforgivable fits of rage" status. For one she'd never do that, but if it did happen in some lapse of sanity, she better pretty much flay herself in apology before I'd take her back.

 

I'd be pretty pissed, but I'd just buy them again.

 

That was a stupid and tasteless prank :dry:
Ofc anyone would get mad!

 

Only my video games? My saved data, is more important. I'd be angry, but I'd probably at least hear them out. It must be an exceptional explanation with reasons that we can verify, or it would be game over, for them.

Now, if they threw out my knives... I'm cutting them out of my life.

 

Yeah I'd be mad. That is some fucked "domineering" shit which needs to stay the hell away from everything but the bedroom.

 

No I would just sell everything they own and make love with someone else in THEIR room. Then I would tell them I gave all the money to charity.

 

YES! Who wouldnt? :lol:
This is why Im looking for a gamer partner. He/She will understand my passion in gaming

 

Behind my back, yes. Not so much because they're video games, but due to the fact they were sneaky about it.

I'd want to know their reason for doing this, and unless it is something like owning Canada, then there is some thoughts and talks to be had.

But what would really tick me off is, if they sold my video games to, say, GameStop, with their rip-off prices. If you're going to sell my stuff, do it right -- I don't tolerate slack hustlers, LOL.

 

Absolutely, I'd consider leaving them. It means we have huge trust issues and a lack of communication which are colossal flaws to have in a relationship. My games are important to me and it's impossible that I could even date someone without them knowing that about me. That means their actions were deliberate and probably spiteful. The only exception is if they somehow got an unrealistically good deal they couldn't pass up and even then I'd be bothered by the fact they didn't even ask permission to sell something THAT DOESNT BELONG TO THEM

fortunately i will never date anyone this oblivious and rude and wont ever have this problem

 

At first I'd be furious, they went behind my back and not only sold something of mine without permission, they sold things that are very expensive and many of which are hard to come by and several of them hold sentimental value.

But after that I don't know how I'd react. If my partner managed to sell all my games then they're probably after shifting more stock than a goddamn multinational. With the sheer amount of games I own we'd have made a fortune. That's an impressive feat for a person that doesn't exist!

 

uh, yeah? i'd call the police have them fucking arrested. anyone who takes my stuff without permission and sells it is a damn criminal

 

Probably depends on their reason... not that I have many boxed games anymore. Even my most revered one saved on my HDDs thanks to Origin and GoG.

If he'd have a stupid reason like "You don't spend time with me!" I will break up with him but not before I break him badly. I hope that would appease their need for intimacy. God even imagining those kind of people are out there make me triple happy that I am single and planning to stay that way.

 

I'd probably not talk to her/him for maybe a whole week, before I quit on staying mad. Then talk about it, and make sure my saved data is safe, and make up again (because I can't stay mad for very long at anyone)

 

Depends. If they went behind my back and sold them, I'd be furious. If we talked about it first, I'd be cool with it.

 

As an loyal RPG and MMO player, I must agree. Though at least MMOs are stored on databases.

I remember when all saved data was stored on tiny external memory cards that we guarded with our lives. Forget selling. Accidentally tossing out or losing memory cards divided families! Friendships, Gone! If you lost someone's memory card, you applied for witness protection. You lived in hiding. There was no forgiveness. There was no going back!

 

Uh...selling any of my personal properties before asking me about it first is a no-no, doesn't matter what they are selling away. I would be as mad if they take away my plushes and stuffed animals collection too.
