People can’t deal with this girl’s ‘rules’ for her fella playing a video game

Oh.

Jade Hayden

Been there.

What, you mean you haven’t set a strict and non-negotiable bunch of rules that your partner must adhere to while they have a bit of fun on their Xbox?

You’re saying you’ve never told your boyfriend he must reply to your texts within 11 minutes?

And you absolutely haven’t made your fella sign a written contract detailing his willingness to pay more attention to you?

Wow, okay then.

One woman who has carried out all of the above is Blake Perry’s girlfriend… and he took to Twitter to share a photo of the contract in all its glory.

The rules themselves were presented to Blake as part of his Christmas present alongside his new copy of XBox game Call Of Duty. 

(A popular video game among males of all ages, if you were unaware.)

The rules, if you can’t read them above are as follows:

“1. If I call you must pause game and talk to me with full attention.

2. No starting another match if we are planning to hangout or I ask to hangout.

3. You must ask if it is okay for you to play if I am over at your house. Make sure I have something to do while you are in battle.

4. You must reply to a text no longer than 11 minutes.

5. Do not forget to give me as much attention.”

The contract was then signed by Blake and uploaded to Twitter.

Now, obviously, this has to be a joke. It is a joke. Nobody would give their boyfriend this contract, expect them to sign it, and take it totally seriously.

Surely not.

Blake has even confirmed himself that the whole thing is a joke in a follow-up tweet.

Grand.

That, however, did not stop people from not being able to deal with the contents of the contract and the fact that the ‘rules’ exist at all.

They expressed their amazement on Twitter.

Blake’s girlfriend, whose name is Ash, even got involved, tweeting that she wasn’t going to “go postal” on her boyfriend but that she appreciated everybody’s concern anyway.

Regardless of whether people accept that the contract is a joke or not, one thing does remain certain…
