A lot of guys like to play video games, as well all know. If your significant other is a gamer, and you find yourself getting bored while he plays, here are some things you can do to pass the time and still allow him to play.

1. Sleep

Feeling like you need to catch up on some sleep? This is the perfect time to do it.

2. Watch Netflix

You'll be surprised how many episodes you can binge while he plays.

3. Eat

Pizza is always a great choice.

4. Play with the cat

Or walk the dog, if you are lucky enough.

5. Clean

But be sure to save some of the cleaning for your boyfriend, though.

6. Go for a walk

If you're really ambitious, you can hit the gym.

7. Read

You can finally finish that book you started two years ago.

8. Call your parents

They'll enjoy it, and it will help pass some time.

9. Go grocery shopping

This is my least favorite thing to do, but some people enjoy shopping for food.

10. Write your article for Odyssey

I may or may not have written this article while my significant other was playing "Skyrim."

11. Watch him play

It's almost like watching a movie if your boyfriend makes it entertaining.

12. Join him

Sometimes the best thing is just to play video games with him. Even if you don't play for long, you will learn more about him and his hobbies if you do something he enjoys. And who knows? Maybe you'll find some games that you like.
