I never really enjoy playing them with people.

They just cause me a lot of stress and sour friendships.

I don't get why people are so addicted to them? Social status raising opportunity?

I really like some board games and enjoy the structure of playing board games. I have played Bunco a few times and it was a lot fun, as well UNO and Monopoly and also a game with Legos where you build things and people guess what they are :wink:

It couldn't possibly be because they find them fun...

Remember, Asspies, everything YOU personally don't get is just a social-status thing.

I like board games but I'm not a big fan of card games and it's probably because I find numbers as well as too many game rules extremely confusing.

I quite like board games, but I am not very good at them and not competitive at all. The last time I was playing a board game with friends one of them said that because I am not competitive I spoil the game for everyone else. I don't really understand why he said that, but now that has put me off playing them.
