I met my fiance almost 2 years ago in SWTOR. We were friends and raiding together and exchanged FB info. Then Skype calls and video calls.
He came to visit me from Europe three months after we started dating. We are getting married next summer and I am moving to the Netherlands with him.
My family loves him, his family loves me. We are very lucky.
As long as marriage laws continue to be draconian to men, never again.
Date, sure, but I'm not going out of my way.
Date, sure, but I'm not going out of my way.
Met my first significant other on EverQuest. We even transitioned over to WoW together. After I lost my first account, cause of his malware ridden pornhub PC, I decided to re roll to alliance, he wanted to stay horde. I knew it was over then and there. (Just kidding, there were a ton of reasons that !@#$show didn't pan out) That relationship lasted 4 or 5 years.
I met my more current X on WoW, in vanilla. I was running around on my lvl 20s elf hunter, with a snake pet from WC, and this lvl 60 dorf hunter through it was a cool pet, we got to talking. Lost touch for a good long while. Then ended up running into each other out of the blue a in WoTLK. Talked on WoW for a good 5-6 months, then I moved in with him (that relationship lasted 8 years). Was going well, till he decided to become a addict and a criminal. I even warned him about the people he was hanging out with after we broke up 2 years ago. Guess who is going to prison and has a restraining order on his butt? I ever need a good laugh, all I need to do is think of that fact.
Now I have 0 interest in ever meeting another person again. Relationship wise. No thanks, far as I can tell all men are liars and scum. I don't even talk in voice chats just to make sure no one knows my gender, and almost all of my characters are now male as well.
I did try the whole Match.com thing, met someone who was 100% match, all I could think the whole time meeting this guy was, hes just going to turn out to be like the rest, never gave him a second date.... lol... I might be ruined :(
Oh well, I needed more cats in my life anyways.

I personally detest lying with a passion and will call it out when ever I see it. Cant blame him for not wanting to continue a relationship with a disgusting liar. Better that he discovered this sooner rather then later after he had kids and he finds out the hard way she is deceitful. My mother cheated on my dad and she still to this day denies it to both me and my sisters face. Liars can rot in hell, they deserve no sympathy.09/23/2018 07:51 AMPosted by Kau<span class="truncated">...</span>
I'll try to keep it short, but I was dating a girl who was introverted and shy. She looked fine from the pictures she took, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. She was a tiny bit on the thick side but I didn't mind too much.
I really liked her, and was even planning on meeting, but her mother had told me she was hiding things from me and that, well, she was more than just on the thick side. It was pretty bad. We never video called because I knew her as a shy person, and she never wanted to, but I know why now. The pictures she used were from 3-4 years back. The fact someone broken my trust like that? I wasn't too fond of it.
After that, I stayed away from internet dating... And should I ever go back to trying it out again, to be extremely careful.
Did.. did I read that right? You were dating a girl you liked based on her personality but her mother revealed she was a really big girl so you ended it? Not to lessen how you felt about it but can you imagine how crushed she must have been? She probably already had self-esteem issues which caused her to be introverted and shy as you put it :(
I'm probably overly sensitive about the issue having re-watched What's Eating Gilbert Grape recently but still.. :(
Might be better stated as do you ever seek out that sort of relationship. I mean, I can imagine a series of events leading to that conclusion but I definitely do not stack the deck to favor that result. The only people I've known beyond the WoW interface are people I know from life who played WoW. I met most of them from when I played MtG.
No.
Nope. Been married 18 years and would NEVER ever ever never do it again. Not worth it.
I dated someone I did arena with for a while. She lived in Vegas and I lived in San Diego. I just kinda got tired of the long drive after a while and she turned out to be a pretty bad person.
Been there, done that. Met my ex-boyfriend in game, we dated IRL for 5 years before we split (mutually), and now we remain good friends :)
I dont see why not. People meet online all the time now, its not just some sleazy backpage thing anymore. Serious relationships start from it. You have to be careful, but that goes with meeting anyone in person first or online.
I dated and ended up marrying someone from Garry's Mod. I mean... GARRY'S MOD! WoW couldn't be much worse of a place to find someone. :)
I've already done that in fact now we are married with twin daughters
The very first thing I ever said to my wife was that she should have made a draenei priest, not a worgen. That was at the beginning of cataclysm. We just celebrated our 4 year anniversary this August.
Have done both.
Married one, didn't work out. Split amicably. He no longer plays.
Met another, dated 7 years. Split amicably. Still one of my best friends.
Currently about to marry someone I met 13 years ago in EverQuest 2. Moved to Sweden for him.

This wins the internet.
Here, have a cookie.

Lies hurt. If a person is lying to you then are you really into the person or the persona created by the lie?
It's body fat not a criminal record. He went full zoomer and was literally traumatised by disappointment. Can you imagine being so delicate and privileged that a fat person causes you trauma? Elemayo!
i mean i wouldnt completely disregard the relationship just because it started in wow.
with that said the question is mind boggling to me, as where you met someone isnt really relevant to marriage. what is relevant is how you get along, and how you deal with eachother over long periods of time.

Oh no, I'm not traumatised by it, nor do I think it caused any form of trauma. When someone lies, they're a deceitful person. That's just fact. I don't want to be with a deceitful person. I'm just more careful about online relationships because people can really be deceitful.
It was catfishing, someone lied about who they were. That one lie created a fake persona of someone. Why do you think those who get catfished don't end up being with the person after finding out?
I don't care if anyone thinks it's shallow, but everyone has their preferences and everyone has their standards. If I don't want to be with someone who's deceitful, that's my decision lol.
What a ridiculous question to ask a single white male. Shame.
