While watching the AGDQ stream I noticed in the background someone who is probably a girlfriend or wife of a runner knitting in the background. Cute, but not really my wife's thing. She is more likely to be reading or writing fanfic. (TheHatchetBoy will have plenty to be embarrassed or proud about depending on how he grows up...) Anyway, what does your SO do while you TAS or play games?

I believe it was dwangoAC's wife who you saw knitting... My wife likes to help me work through Zelda, otherwise she may be reading on the couch next to me or watching TV in another room.

My lovely lady likes to do her own thing online while I'm playing games, she enjoys her own share of gaming although it is mostly casual games. Occasionally we will do stuff together, like recently we took the time to co-op through Streets of Rage, and she loves to watch me on stream when I do speedruns. Basically, for the most part she's content to do her own thing while I'm gaming, which is pretty cool, and's she is free to be as included as she wants to be :)

She reads, watches (what I consider) very bad series or, very rarely, plays games herself (or even speedruns them). :)

All syllogisms have three parts, therefore this is not a syllogism.

I don't know any of your ages, life situations or personalities, but I'd like to give some life advise, if you allow me: If you have been experiencing chronic loneliness, take it seriously. If you know someone who expresses their loneliness (especially if this has continued for a long time), take it seriously. If you feel that your social life is stagnant, with little to no new friends, if you have little to no romantic relationships, and this has continued for a significant amount of time, don't just succumb into apathy and laziness. Do not think that it's going to get better or easier when you are older. It's only going to get harder. Do not let opportunities slip by, when they present themselves. When a friend invites you to an event, you might think that the event is boring and uninteresting, or you are too tired to go, and thus you pass. When a friend suggests if you want to try a new hobby, you might pass because you are not interested. Don't do that. The important part is not the event or the hobby, the important part is the people. You don't want to feed your chronic loneliness with apathy and lack of caring. Of course you shouldn't expect everything to be fixed immediately. Don't forcefully try to make new acquaintances. Just be there and give it time. Let your face become recognized. That's better than sitting at your home alone. If you wait too long, you might some day realize that it might be too late, that it has become too difficult to do anything about it. Friends and life partners are not going to appear by magic; you need to interact with other people. You need to be social. I certainly know it's not always easy, but life often isn't. If you have a friend who suffers from chronic loneliness, don't just shrug it off. Don't just give empty advise and leave it be. Even if you are a good listener and understand perfectly their life situation and can have good conversations with them (without the empty and useless advise), you should still not leave it just as that. Don't just listen to them; help them, if you can. One of the biggest problems with chronic loneliness is that nobody cares. Literally.

My fiancée usually either watches, surfs the web, plays her own game, or depending on the game sometimes plays with me.
My user name is rather long, feel free to call me by htwt or tape.

She plays casual games online and/or drinks alcohol, or does her own creative projects. And probably spends a lot of time lamenting the fact she didn't settle for a more exciting BF, ha.
Knuckles does, what Sonican't.

She sits at her computer, doing her own thing. Mostly research into things she's interested in (she's the smart one in our relationship), but often enough just watching stupid videos or playing casual flash games. She's free to join me in my games whenever she likes, but that's not all too often.
