Do these things make me "immature"
A few days ago in a psych class all the girls basically said they wont date a guy who plays video games. I frequently play video games as my way to get away from school and/or work, and was kinda insulted that they just label all video game players as immature. I told the class that i dont think video game playing is any more or less mature than say....getting lunch with your friends. Almost everyone in the class (even the teacher) disagreed with me. I then tried to be more general and just said "i think doing ANYTHING excessively is immature, and to single out all video game players as excessive players is immature on people's part"
I take 5-6 classes a semester, work 15 to 20 hours a week on thurs/fri/sat/sun, and try to schedule 3-4 workouts each week as well. So what if i ever have a spare two hours i like to play video games. Is it really THAT immature? Again, my sister goes out to lunch with her friends like 5 times a week.
I always felt maturity has nothing to do with what a person does with their free time, but moreso are they willing to prioritize the important things in life OVER their free time. I'll admit that on every new years eve i tend to have a few too many drinks. But i dont go crazy every weekend and pound 10 shots of vodka...
just a frustrated person...
