Man goes viral for selling wife\u2019s Harvest Moon collection: \u201cIt\u2019s infidelity prevention\u201d Reddit: CVegaOrtega \/ Victor Interactive SoftwareA Reddit post has gone viral on social media after a man sold his wife\u2019s Harvest Moon Nintendo collection, claiming he\u2019s uncomfortable with \u201cvirtual men.\u201d The life-sim genre is insanely popular due to its chill, relaxing gameplay style and, in games like Stardew Valley and Story of Seasons, being able to date and marry characters. One man has caused a ruckus online after claiming to have sold his wife\u2019s Harvest Moon collection for this reason. He says it\u2019s \u201cinfidelity prevention\u201d due to them including a romance mechanic he\u2019s not comfortable with. Harvest Moon Reddit post goes viral In a now-deleted Reddit post shared on Twitter by @ellle_em, the newlywed husband asked the AmITheA**hole forum for advice after getting rid of his wife\u2019s Harvest Moon collection while she was at work. \u201cI intend on us being a committed couple,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI tolerated her love of farming simulation games like Harvest Moon and Stardew Valley, but now that we\u2019re married, I expect her to commit to me alone and not these virtual husbands.\u201d The user claimed that he\u2019d sold his partner\u2019s Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance games on eBay. \u201cI\u2019m also going to sit down and make her uninstall Stardew Valley,\u201d he said.

How sad\u2026\u201d one person responded. \u201cThis marriage is doomed,\u201d said another. Others questioned the validity of the thread but claimed he was indeed the a-hole either way: \u201cIf this is real and you\u2019re that insecure, then you need some therapy.\u201d Comment by from discussion inAmItheAsshole While the post could indeed be a well-thought-out troll, one thing is clear from the scathing response it got: don\u2019t mess with gamers and their virtual romances. And let\u2019s be real here, Stardew Valley does have some beautiful potential suitors. *chef\u2019s kiss*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
