It all started after Christmas. My girlfriend (MissEve) bought me Grand Theft Auto 3 for Christmas....
It started with just casually watching as the boys played the game. Over the past 2 weeks it's become an addiction that I fear will require a professional intervention. Every time I turn around, she's playing it. She refuses to let me help with the missions. She's hogging the PlayStation and she's starting to lose friends and family over this. Can anyone please help? Does anyone know anyone that could assist us through these troubling times? Thanks in advance, -KC Last edited by KC at Jan 30 2003, 03:33 AM

KC I will help you with the intervention. Make sure we give specific exampels how she dissapointed us, and how she can get better, let her know we love and support her!
12 Step program.... first step is to admit you have a problem.

Have you looked inside the tanks on your toilets yet? The reason I ask, is that many alcoholics, once confronted, will hide their alcohol in the tank of the toilet so their family members won't find it. If you find a Grand Theft Auto CD in the toilet tank, I think it's time to call in the professionals!

KC try giving her romance and she'll drop the game. Fix her dinner with wine and candles, offer a massage, good long foreplay and great orgasms.
I bet it works.

KC - you can't help her unless she admits she has a problem, she has to seek treatment for herself and not for the sake others
As sad as it will be to see MissEve will have to hit bottom and have her moment of clarity and see she is addicted

KC...
First Step is recognition excellent... I tried everything to get KarenFold off the PS2, ended up having to buy another one and put on another tv monitor for other people to play. Of course, the xbox she won in football helped fuel the addiction, but don't EVEN THINK OF trying to play on that! :grrr: |

KC, we all love Esa but sometimes you have to fight fire with fire. Grab a baseball bat and start beating her like they do in the game. She will realize the stupidity of it all. Why play a game with that much violence and depravity? She will come to realize that her time is wasted on a game that glorifies hookers, assassins, mobsters, hitmen, and thugs. My wife wanted to play it so I gave her a boot to the head and that made her change her mind.
Sorry, where was I?.. fuck it, off to play more GTA3  BTW.. just kidding about the baseball bat. Hope it's not too late! KC? NOOOOOOO!

Oh my
 I can only imagine the pain you're going through having to watch this.It's obvious Esa needs personal intervention. From me. In Alaska. When the weather's nice. Really! I read this in a several very highly thought of psychological weekly tabloids  If you're dead set against flying me to Alaska :angry: , I suggest buying yourself your own PS and GTA3, hooking into hers (which it is now - even if it WAS yours...), and then playing against her in a friendly "Strip GTA3" game.

You guys are making too big a deal out of this! Im fine, I can stop anytime, seriously. I mean, Im only having one or two games a day, Im a social player!
I think it might be affecting me though, I was driving around San Francisco the other day during rush hour and I started thinking that I could just drive on the curb and run people over. My Lexus has a shitty turning radius though so I was going to have to jack another car. So what!!??

Just give her the credit cards, I'm sure she can shop instead of playing and you won't have to work but a few years to pay off the bills.

To start, everyone tell KC how his GTA3 abuse has hurt everyone.
Like that time at the craps table, when you had to "go to the bathroom" and i found you two days later, shivering in your hotel room, all cranked up on adrenalin from the GTA rush? Those were dark times...
