Becoming a professional player in Call of Duty and in esports overall has become an increasingly desired dream for many players and fans of competitive gaming. However, as esports has continued to become more mainstream over the years, it has become increasingly hard for the average gamer to reach the heights of a pro player. Now, a girlfriend of an old CoD player, has called for advice after claiming her boyfriend doesn\u2019t spend enough time with her and instead gets \u201cmad\u201d at her for not supporting his \u201ccareer chase\u201d of going pro. Aspiring CoD pro player\u2019s girlfriend calls for relationship advice The user odsaveme called for help in a post titled: \u201cMy (26f) Bf (27m) wants to become a CoD (Call of Duty) pro and plays 8+ hours online but gets mad when I ask for us time or attention. \u201cThe title of this pretty much sums up the situation. He works 2 jobs and works 6 days a week, meaning it is 8 or 16-hour days for him at work itself. When he comes home he immediately gets on the game playing anywhere from 4-16 more hours.\u201d She claimed that when asking him to \u201ccompromise and spend a couple of hours with me instead,\u201d her boyfriend immediately responds telling her she\u2019s \u201cbeing clingy, I\u2019m being too codependent, I need to find hobbies, I don\u2019t support his career chase.\u201d Odsaveme ended by asking: \u201cAm I in the wrong? Am I asking for too much when he\u2019s trying to \u201cmake it\u201d? I feel like I\u2019m not asking for much, but he makes me feel like I\u2019m being \u201ctoo much\u201d and I\u2019m not normal for wanting quality time.\u201d Many echoed the thoughts of a CoD coach who responded: \u201cAt 27, he is already a little old to be a newcomer to the scene. This could be a reasonable career for him if he is already at the absolute top of the amateur scene.\u201d Despite this, various players agreed that the boyfriend is \u201centitled to his dreams and to pursue them,\u201d however, most still admitted that at this point, the chances were \u201cliterally impossible.\u201d Others were much more blunt and stated: \u201che just needs to focus on his jobs and his partner \u2019cause if he continues acting like this he\u2019s gonna lose everything.\u201d The post even caught the attention of the CoD League, who shared their views. Most notably, the longest-serving veteran in the league and three-time world champion, Clayster (31), simply said: \u201cAight man, who is this, go hang out with your girl.\u201d Talking of CoD League, all the best pro players will be in action in Major 1 of the MW3 season, which is just around the corner and kicks off on January 24-28.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Girlfriend demands help after CoD player will not give up dream of going pro CWL \/ TwitchA girlfriend of an old CoD player has called for relationship advice after her boyfriend refuses to spend more time with her and instead puts countless hours into his dream of becoming a pro player.
