July 6, 2016- The day relationships were either strengthened or broken apart because of the release of Pokémon Go. Some people love it and some people hate it. People have actually gotten mad at their SO for playing the game. I personally date a gamer and he was thrilled the day Pokemon Go came out; me not so much. Over the past week, I've come up with a list of the pros and cons of dating a Pokémon Go addict. This list is scary accurate.
Cons
1. Driving completely off route to find Pokémon.
We're lost and now we're late for whatever we were just doing. You're both just standing there like
2. Being interrupted mid-conversation because they found a Pokémon.
Always getting cut off!
3. They become glued to their phone.
Why are you looking at your phone? Your happiness is right here!
4. Not understanding their excitement when they find another Pokémon.
They're acting like Jim Carey above. Meanwhile, you're acting like Dr. Gregory House below like
5. Losing them in public.
"Dammit! Where did he go this time??"
Pros
1. Being able to explore new places looking for Pokémon.
Who knew that there would be a Pidgey is this dark alleyway?
2. Learning about something new.
Learning all about the different Pokémon and how to battle.
3. They're entertained when you go shopping.
"Bye babe, I'm going to go find the Eevee nearby a few aisles away."
4. Spending time together looking for Pokémon.
"It's my turn to catch it!"
"No it was your turn last time!"
"Stop wasting all of my Pokéballs!"
