Haven't been a part of this thread so hope I am not breaking any on going conversations, never tried this so lets go!
1. How does your spouse feel about your gaming time?
Honestly, speaking it makes no difference to her, on the contrary I work until 1-2 A.M at times reviewing drawings etc. and she encourages me to play, goes to the extent of offering to play Forza with me, I don't think anything bothers her much.
2. Does she think those gaming figurines would come in handy for the kids to play with?
I don't have any now, had a lot as a kid, but some Guju mother thought it made sense to give it away to other kids in the family and damn I wanna break my nephews' face when I see him play with my Castle Grayskull.
3. And the money spent on this passion, how does she feel about it?
She gets most of them, so I guess she feels good spending on the games.
Megz questions v1 :
4. Do you encourage your wife to play some videogames with you?
My wife needs no encouragement, she's gonna do anything and everything I do, Invited or not!
So there are times when she joins in for few minutes, and then gets annoyed and gets back to doing whatever she is doing, or if I am playing a TPS (Uncharted etc.) she helps with any puzzle if I am stuck with, etc.5. Would you be happy, surprised, thrilled or scared if your wife also became a member of IVG?
Would be a nice break for her online away from celebrity Dirty laundry and Hollywood life etc. lol
6. Do you encourage your wife or share her passions say may be, Saas-Bahu serial, Or Romantic YRF movie Or Cricket, Or Bhartnatyam Dance Show etc..?
I would if she wanted to but she does not watch any, I guess not knowing Hindi helps, but she does love Bollywood movies, esp. for the Songs, and keeps asking me where can I get any particular dress if she likes etc. Damn can't these women not change so many dresses in just one song?
7. How many hours in a week you devote to your Gaming?
Depends on work but do try play about an hour each day
8. What are three things you wish your wife would understand about you and your connection with Gaming?[/font][/color]
Really, she understands all, just wish she would not talk so much while i play! (jk)
Megz questions v2 :
9. If you want one game to see your wife beat you in..Which one will that be?
FORZA FORZA FORZA! I've promised to get her Hermes Berkin bag if she ever did it.
10. What changes after marriage?? As in, Me time, utilization of me time, you as a person
All that changes is you have 24 x 7 company for all good and bad! Love it!
11. Would you like your kid(s) to be an avid gamer(s)?
Sports first!
12. Have you ever planned a surprise gift/ party/ outing for your better half??
Yes every birthday, have also done crazy stuff like last year on a random day on way back home just booked tickets to London, called her and asked her to pack, and this was the plan, Land in London, and go wherever the mood says, and get back to India once we run out of cash or the card is over limit, was a blast took the Euro Star into Paris and off to Zurich etc. Best is every next destination hotels were being booked on the journey into that destination, need to do it again and longer and next time take her shopping on the last day only lol, and a lot of random days and have got her loads of shoes and bags, yes I do it all by myself, 2 weeks back in Austria, the shops close at 6 P.M and the next morning I leave for India, got back to the town by 5:45 P.M and believe me ran into the city centre and got her whatever I could! Love the smile on her face when she is least expecting anything!
Babyzelda, so happy to read about your marriage.. May you always stay happy and blessed.

Interesting thread.

Feel good..I am sure you are luckier than 50% of singles in USA,

I agree with you Tyler. I remember the time, when my brother and me were forced to bed because Mom and Dad wanted to watch those 80's ka hollywood films, even though we were curious, we didn't really have an access to those videos till much later in life. However, today's kids start with youtube when they are barely few months old.(my neighbors kid can play his favorites on youtube, since he was 8 months old! on his ipad). In these times, it is going to be a challenge to censor the information they receive , from the internet. Before you know it, the kids might have access to see, whatever that interest their curious mind- nature, sex, violence, cars the world.. I guess, now the parenting is more engaging and less controlling , telling them what's cool and what's not, and why, rather than old ways when our parents used to say, this is not to be done, and we obeyed.

I have a niece of the same age and she loves gaming.. I have assigned an old ps2 controller (after decapitating the cable) to her and she uses it to 'play' whenever I play a game. She knows all the games and their characters.. her fav are Nathan Drake, Sly Cooper and 45 from SOCOM4. She loves to play Tekken (she really plays it and is kinda good at it for a kid of her age). Besides all this, her fav game is everybody dance.. she just takes the move controller and starts dancing as the song plays.. and when she is not playing .. sometimes she plays with all her imaginary game character friends.
According to her Nate and Sly visit our home regularly.
Also, she is a Batman fanatic !!!
So cute.. Nathan Drake is my fav gaming character as well.

When did I started any kind of argument? If someone takes a joke or a normal post and call me retarded, how am I supposed to react? It is true though, that I am normally the first to call someone out. Getting too much of stick for even a sensible response to people calling "gayers jhundment" instead of "gears judgment". Staying in this community is getting hard to justify.
Also, if you wish to ignore me, please do it. I have no qualms about it. Might as well, get a record of it. A custom title will be nice too.

All you out of topic talkers, go chat in food, fitness, anything goes thread. This is a very very very serious thread about pyaar, ishq, mohabbat and heartbreak after that.
okie bye.

This needs to go in the Jokes thread
You are married too. Now answer the questions posted in this thread.

^Megz, looks like you're having a good time. The initial free-minded times post-marriage are truly memorable.
Make sure you guys have as much fun as soon as possible. Be it gaming, travel, whatever (I mean, jo bhi shaunk hain, poore kar lo abhi). The time that (most) couples take out for such activities decreases with time due to a number of factors, so keep having fun, loads of it.
And always, enjoy what you do!
Thanks Piper. Yeah, good times indeed. It really is a feel good time right now. A lot also because of the place we live, we are both back from work by 4-5pm , that leaves us with much needed quality time with each other, doing things we like doing. I am glad that we are building our married life on a stress free base, just the two of us, enough money to get us stuff, and need to want to have fun mostly! Wanna keep it status quo, explore the world, travel and really enjoy this time before we feel we are ready for some addition in the family!
-
Post some of your experiences. Compare life post-marriage, and your relationship as well. How have things changed, etc.
Umm.. Yup there are changes and mostly good changes for me so far,
1. First and most important, after years of Long Distance Relationship, I now live with the man I am crazy about and that feels awesome!
2. I now do grocery shopping on weekend among other things, which was not the case before I got married
3. I cook now, something that I never did before, though my hubby helps me there.
4. Making new home, new furniture, taking care of home, hubby, work and yet have a blast is all nice and awesome.
5. I get new gadgets, clothes, shoes ,the works almost every month ..as gift!!
I strongly recommend marriage to the right guy!
How many hours a week do you let your hubby play games? (If he is a gamer)
Do you get annoyed if he buys gadgets/electronics stuff ?
He plays everyday for sometime , an hour may be, while I relax on my swing and read book or play on my ipad. On weekend he plays like a ninja! I don't get annoyed about his gadgets purchase as most of his recent purchases were for me
..In fact I just gifted him a 3d TV last week. But yeah, I don't understand some of his gaming related expenses..like buying limited edition stuff and such.Where's the popcorn when you need it?
We both are "Chips-Addict" and we always keep stock .

Oye, what happened to all the Q&A with married janta?
I am married now!! Let's get started.
-
Maybe its because you are not familiar with their culture or the language.. Bihari dialect is by far the most polite and respectable of any other Indian dialect I have known.. even when they are fighting or abusing each other.. you will never hear 'Tu' from a bihari.. you will always hear 'Aap' or 'Tum' (Tum is the lowest level they would stoop to be rude)... though I dont understand most of the things they say.. but it has a certain rhythm (just like mandarin).. whenever biharis talk it seems like they are trying to sing.. lovely dialect IMO
On the other hand Haryanvi is the harshest one.. even when they talk lovingly.. it feels like the person could bash you any moment now
I like Biharis. In fact two of my best friends are Biharis. I also like some bhojpuri songs..find them really really funny. But typical bihari accent.. me not a fan!
BTW, where are all the heart patients? This Civil war here has sent them to other Doctors or what?

First race this weekend. HYPED!
Beer is stocked in the fridge honey!

Megz, you're basically just digging your own grave. I prefer that you gracefully exit now.
Nope! Not leaving IVG.
Are you heartbroken now? In which case you are in the right thread.

It sure is, I got no problem with people who display a bit of racism, not blatant- hitler/kkk/vhp like- but just enough to develop jokes and stereotypes; but its the people who try their best building up a 'holier than thou' paragon image and then inadvertently slip up and exhibit their true selves which aren't unlike the rest of us, that give me a hearty laugh.
Nemo, I enjoy your criticism as much as I enjoy sugar-free sweets, but whatever gives you the impression on building "holier than thou" image is really funny. One meets all kind of people on the internet, and you are the all perceptive brainy one who has found a tag for me and that's ok. However, for the records I am NOT holier than thou and thats definitely not the image I would like to put up. (so boring!) I am just me. I have strong opinions and even conflicting opinions and I voice them. They might make sense for some or not make sense at all. So deal with it.
As for stereotype, l am an average North Indian girl and I really found south Indians very different from us .. Most of the South Indian guys I knew were scholars in school/college but were really not the dude..if you get my drift. However I ended up falling in love with this South Indian guy who is an awesome person and very cosmo and contemporary and now I am a south Indian too since I am married to him.. Such is life.
Really Megz? Really? And north indians don't have an accent at all right?
Latent racism indeed You forgot to mention he doesn't love Thayir Saadham (Curd Rice) with pickles and doesn't lick buttermilk off his hands after eating like some South Indians too. (since you're going all stereortype on us, do it properly atleast
)They all vent to the gyelfu because they can get a better O-ffice than the jOb they'd have gotten in Kerala
Disclaimer: I'm a Malayali too
Self-racist I guess haha.North Indians have an accent but it sounds way better than the South Indian accent. I am also not a fan of Bihari accent. But Panju and Haryanavi accent is kinda cute. Just my POV. There is no scientific/or even logical reason behind that.

Girls r really weird des days
I met wit a cute girl through my other sweet n supportive friend(who happens to b a girl too)I started slow den started flirting she liked it n said m unique not desperate like other guys she knew..den I heard frm other friend dat d girl who introduced me to her warned her dat I always flirt wit women as if it's a hobby n m never serious abt commitment..so all of a sudden she stopped talking to me 
no messages fb nothing..I didn't even asked to my friend abt wat she really said abt me to her coz I don't wanna end my friendship of 5 years Sent from my ST25i using Tapatalk 2Dude, your sweet and supportive friend (who is also a girl) has hots for you. She bitched about you to this girl to keep you safe for her!
Congratulations!
Most of north indians in my college hate south indians (Especially keralites. :| Dont know why)
I am a North Indian, married to a South Indian (also because he doesn't look like an average South Indian, and definitely not have that Ugh! South Indian accent) Lol!!

So continuation of the story, this was back in September, well what would a single boy do? I started getting over her, I reduced my chatting with her, and started noticing other girls again (Finally!), there was this girl in my class, she was by far the cutest, I largely thought I was out of her league, but I started talking to her, after a while asked for her number and there you go she had to call me every night and talk to me for hours, even when I didn't want to, mind you, I kept clear of the friend zone, and it was pretty obvious she liked me too.
Come our Pre Boards, well a few educated friends of mine told me that I should ignore her through out the exams and ask her out after out Conti ( continuation party thrown at the end of 12th where all 11thies and 12thies get drunk together), well me being a gullible little bitch fell for the trap, the Conti came and the day after the conti she starts ignoring me, I was totally baffled, what the hell happened, I don't remember much from the night of the conti but I didn't remember doing anything wrong! After days of asking her what's wrong she would say nothing and move on.
New years, I obviously got drunk again, and texted her that I used to like her a lot, I said used to in the text too to tell her that I don't like her now, she ignores me and says we will talk when you are sober. Next morning, I obviously apologize to her, only to find her blaming me that I was actually sober and I lied to her about being drunk and was just acting like I was drunk so that I could say that. This pissed me off really bad, I sent her all the pics of my drunk dialing, texting and a pic of all the bottles we had, I also told her to never talk to me again. Another thing happened that night, I asked the first (VERY FIRST / REFER TO LAST POST), if she ever had feelings for me, she replied in a vague-ish yet positive way.
So the new girl apologizes to me 15 days layer in a very half assed manner, I decided to let it go. Now another 15 days have passed and its February, we have our last school picnic, last 12th grade trip, I find the first girl again, I see how big her boobs look in sports shirts and decide to flirt with her again, I go home and my best friend (a girl) starts telling me about how she has been talking about me to other girls, and I should tell her I like her. I said no, she kept goading me to do it for 2 days and I finally gave in. Note, I told her that I like her, no commitments, she told me she likes me too, no commitments. See my last post on how desperate I was? This didn't feel right to me. Moving on, my best friend now confesses that she has had a big crush on me since a few weeks and she broke up with her boyfriend ( a good friend of mine) of an year because of me and she felt that the only way she would get over me is when I start dating another girl. I was completely raging at this point, what had she done? I had made a big mistake.
Behind the scenes my friendship with the new girl again became good and she started calling me again every night ( I call, she calls, same sh*t). Now I really like this girl, she is nice ( so is the other one), she intellectually challenges me (I find topics hard to come by with the other girl and I can talk with this one for hours), this one used to be a gamer ( the other one, don't even ask), this girl is intelligent ( the other one is the epitomy of hot blond), she is not exactly hot but insanely cute ( other one is hot) and finally she is the most likeable person I have met.
But wait, didn't I tell the first girl that I like her? So I haven't made any commitments so I can't say "Break up", but she expects me to ask her out after the boards? Wut?
So my question is should I stick with the one I have or go with the one I truly like? The first one is a sure shot, but I would like to take the risk with this one.
I have omitted parts about the new girl ranting about her ex to me and sharing VERY private stuff with me.
Also, this is meant more for your entertainment purposes as I believe I am stuck in a classic catch 22.
Are you legally allowed to drink? anyway..
My POV,
Date as many at this age. Why do you have to choose when you are clearly not serious. Big boobs, cute face, whatever works.. but be a gentleman. Keep your stand clear . Stay off commitment and consult Avishkar. Have fun and don't drink and drive (or drive girls insane by drunk texting..Ewww)

I just thought I'd share my recent *weird* experience here.....
Recently, someone new showed up at my workplace. And arguably, she was HOT, by
all standards, acknowledged by every guy. And naturally, almost everyone
started acting strange around her, you know, trying to seek attention and
impress her. But she didn't seem to give a damn about any of it, or visibly at
least. And by coincidence, she was assigned a work-space right next to me (oh
dear!). And of all the people, I was the least interested in her. I'm actually
the sort of guy who goes to work, to work and avoid other bullshit; besides I
don't have the time for relationships in my life..yet. A couple of days passed
and after getting to know everyone, she was still least interested in all the
attention-seekers. She started striking conversations with me, sounding like
wanting to know how stuff work over here (since she's new) and although I was
upto my neck with work (as usual), I tried to help her to whatever extent I could.
A few more days passed, and to my horror, she started personal conversations
with me, and it was turning out to be rather uncomfortable, as she never had
any such conversation with any other person at work. I tried to keep things
clear and civil, but then it turned out to be a bit of a nag. My work style is
mostly unorthodox and would be intriguing to anyone new to seeing it. But this
girl, having seen me using my left hand for most of my activities turns over
and asks me, "Are you left-handed?" I was kinda puzzled, and gave a
derp faced reply, "No". I don't know what she felt, but a moment
later she apologised for no reason. I told her there's no reason to be sorry,
and explained to her that I'm not really left-handed (I'm a right-handed person
who uses the left hand for my daily activities). She said "That's so
cool!!" I, again with a derp face, "okay :|"
Now, she was kind starting to get on my nerve.
She'd been going for lunch with a bunch of people who (inevitably) had been
trying to seek her attention. But one day, she decided that she'd ask me to
accompany her for lunch. I turned her down (in a friendly manner) saying that
I'd be going with my friends elsewhere and that we could catch up some other
time. And after lunch, she asked the question, "Do you have a
girl-friend?" I'd already lost my mood to speak with this person now, and
replied, "No." She replied, "Oh, that's sad to hear!" (With
a f**king DUCK FACE!) I thought to myself, "What sort of a reply is
that?!" and got really pissed. I lashed out at her saying that there was
no reason for her to feel sympathetic and, "Besides, you don't even know
me." And after all this, she still speaks to
me in a friendly manner.
Things haven't changed much now, but my colleagues who are interested in
this girl kinda feel jelly, while I don't even like her :|
You guys can derive from this story whatever you want :
I'm in talks with a few people to get her work space changed to someplace
far off from my own
May be she is just trying to have a conversation with a collegue who happens to be seated next to her work station while you are too busy trying not to give her attention, to not stand in the queue of her admirer that even her normal chit chat is getting on your nerves. Say whatever..when it comes to hot girls. You can love them, you can hate them but you canNOT ignore them..
The Travel Thread

Thanks. Read about it on Trip Advisor looks good. Also, we would like to travel in mini train from Kalka. can someone guide us on how to go about it if we land in Delhi at 7:00am. Or else, we have direct flight to chandigarh and then drive to shimla from there.
