The answer to most ultimatums is no. It's one thing if it's something you need to change and is reasonable to demand, but even then by the time it hits an ultimatum the relationship is often in a position where the damage runs deep.
I've ended an engagement over an ultimatum and it's one of the best decisions I've made
Yes! It took me far to long to internalize this.
Ultimatums are never productive, and anyone issuing them is either desperate or an asshole. (Sometimes both.)
Them: You have to stop playing video games, they're a waste of money and time and take up too much space

I appreciate that. Looking back, it really was disgusting that she tried to use "love" as an excuse to try to force me to change my damn diet!?!?
At the time, I was too caught up in raising our family to see her subtle abuses. So when she'd refuse my physical affection over so-called "cat food breath," I used to really take it to heart. For a long time, I'd honestly almost convinced myself that I really was the problem, somehow.

Ok, but few people will understand that response
