[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been the boyfriend in this situation. My girlfriend was an adult (over 30) but had a whole bunch of softly implied expectations that I often failed to read to her satisfaction. Maybe she's a little demanding, maybe I'm a little on the old spectrum.

Either way, it was best that we split just so she didn't live in a state of constant dissatisfaction with me.[/quote]

I don’t really get this.  This stuff is so easy if you want to do it.  There are a few days a year that you absolutely have to spend with her:  her birthday, your birthday, Valentines Day, Halloween, and New Year’s Eve.  
You can look up exactly what to do if you need help planning something.  
And then she will run with it the other 360 days of the year.  
You aren’t “constantly disappointing her” because she has unrealistic expectations or you are some kind of irredeemable loser.  You just didn’t try.

Where else in your life would you expect to just not show up to an important event because you were playing video games and expect everyone else to be cool with that?
