Dude what are you thinking... quit CS if it becomes a bigger problem. Huh probably had the most productive on here, re-read it over and over and you will understand. I'm fairly certain he knows what he's talking about... and Old Man too. xD

This is just my opinion but, if your girlfriend (or anyone/any matter in real life) wants your attention, you should give it to them.
Video games come in [a quick] second to real life, always.
If possible I'll spend as much time with my GF as I can and then afterwards I'll play some CS:S (while she's in bed
)

well, you should only spend a maximum of 3-4 hours of CS then spend as much with your GF. try to balance between the two

i had a similar issue like this only it was i spent to much time playing wow (world of warcraft) but its wasn't where i neglected her i raided two days a week so two days a week for 2 hrs i would be online unless she wasn't there.. so one day i let her make her own character. and she ended up playing the game with me buying her own account... it was fun for a while but you dont realize how much being away from that person for two hours could mean t your relationship.. constantly being around someone isn't good either and my *fun* time on wow was ruined by her pestering me to help her lol... jsut a heads up if you considered that scenario... oh and you shouldnt love her the same.. love her more and let her know you love her more than anything.. from past exp i've noticed that women sometimes feel intimated that they are not fun or that they are more or less boring so playing a game makes them feel inferior i guess.. hmm if she will ever admit it idk lol.. anyways GL on whatever you choose but by the general consensus here umm id delete your steam account haha j/k j/k
Life > CS, play CS:S when she can't be around, when she can dont be playing cs:s LIVE

Oh my God...........
living together is a compromise
when i first moved in with my ex GF (we were together for 3 1/2 years) i was addicted to CS and it did cause problems because of the amount of QUALITY time i missed out with her.
Yes i understand you see her all the time, but that isn't the same as spending time with her, and trust me i completely understand with the watching pointless crappy shows and not wanting to.
For us, our problem lied in the fact that when we moved in together i felt it was a necessary financial step as roommates etc however she felt it was a step up in our relationship. Thats were the difference lied, and you need to compromise on time spending.
You see she might not just be watching those shows as you like to play CSS, to kill time and have a little fun...she might be watching them in an attempt to spend time with you, just don't know exactly what else could be done. You really need to communicate about it too, ask her what about it she doesn't like and what she doesn't mind.
You'll be able to work out a schedule where you guys can actually spend quality time together every day and have your gaming time.
Personally i think the worst advice is to play when she has gone to sleep...that was the biggest annoyance of my GF at the time. When she goes to sleep, you should be going with her. Its a great time to lay down and talk for a little bit or whatever else you want to do. Never go to bed angry, seriously.
This is a compromise remember....so maybe she needs to give up some of her shows in order for you two to actually do something together that you will both enjoy, and maybe you'll need to give up some gaming time. However they can co-exist, so work on it and communicate about it...you shouldn't necessarily be asking us, but ask her.

sorry meatwad but you can't be dr love if you haven't had a long relationship, or lived with a girl 
not being mean or disrespectful, but take advice from people who have been there, done that, and know what your going through. I loved that meranda was a gamer too and that i could get her into cs with me, i love the fact that she still plays, but if you truly love someone, and want to be with them, you would change any aspect of your life to make sure you can stay with them. That's what true love is. But it works both ways, you have to have it and she has to have it, and you all have to comprimise and meet in the middle somewhere. No matter what happens, life should always be more to you than a video game, and i have been a hardcore gamer for 17+ years online, and have made good money on video games, and watched relationships come and go because of those said video games, and it took me till I found meranda to realize that games are not everything... even when they play it, you always put the ones you love first...

*Failpalm*
I believe you were looking for the word accept but don't worry! I found it for you. No finder's fee Either!
as for you Huh I can safely say that I don't have to be in a relationship to know how one works. I have seen enough of them IRL/ also watched enough cliche romance movies to get a pretty good gist on how it all goes down.
