<human>: My girlfriend and I have been going out for about 2 years now and we live together about half the time. When we didn't spend as much time together it wasn't an issue that I liked to use a fair amount of my time playing video games.

However now that I'm at hers or vice versa at least 3 days a week and am doing more hours at work, I often get a craving to spend an hour or two gaming. It's probably my favourite social activity and other than the sport I play, it's what I do for fun. The problem lies in that she doesn't want me to use any time that we could be together on other things. Anything that isn't going out of the house, or us spending time together is a waste of time from her perspective.

I don't mind spending 90% of the time we are together chatting/doing things with her but If I've been with her for longer than about 36 hours I really appreciate an hour or two apart. She often starts crying and I have to give up on the game and go comfort her and it's starting to get pretty frustrating.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: Girlfriend can't see why I enjoy gaming and wants to spend that time together instead. How can I convince her that I'm not choosing games over her?
