If and when I get really stuck in a game, I cannot tear myself away from it. I play day and night, miss school and social gatherings and lead a solitary life until the game in question is beat.

And when I do beat it, I feel that lonely feeling you were talking about. But I will do anything to get back to my normal life as soon as possible, so I RUSH through the game instead of, as you, avoid it to drag it out as long as possible. Also, I get addicted to it, can't stop thinking about it. Don't want to stop playing.

Luckily, this doesn't happen very often. It's been a long time since it happened, actually. The closest I've gotten this year is Super Mario Galaxy and Wii Sports Resort. Both of which I do not own.

I guess I should also add that this happens with games, books, manga and TV-series. I'm addicted to a good story, and to good gameplay.

Haha, it's like your my opposite.  I avoid the games, you dive in 25/7 :P  In the end, we both get sad. :P  I do get addicted after a certain point in a games story, for the ones I do beat.  The beginning is where I usually faulter, and try not to get that emotional attachment to the game.  Once that attachment is there, then I'm thinking/wanting/playing it non stop until I beat it.  With ToS2, I got to that stage this weekend, and put in easily 14 hours over the last 2 days to beat it.

And no WoW, ToS2 doesn't kind've suck, you do. :P
