Would you ever date someone you met from WoW?

If you think you like him go for it. If your just doing it to not be alone on vday and think you’ll blow him off - just be careful, be upfront with your intentions
 don’t string him along just because of the holiday - esp if he is a friend.

Closing your self off from potentially finding your match because of some arbitrary line you place in the sand is only your loss. I personally, wouldn’t pass up the chance to find the one in a million even in the World of Warcraft. Consider that potentially good RNG, maybe you can even titanforge!

Exclusivity breeds desire. Playing hard to get is smart on your part :+1:

Not everyone has experience after 40 years. Some people like to just sit in bed and play WoW ):

My brother did that and it went fine, dated the gale for a year then had to move so they called it quits.

Its all up to you and how comfortable you are with the situation. WOTLK came out awhile ago so im sure you have a sense of his personality and how he is.

I’d say go for it , meet in public give it a whirl
If you never put your name in the hat, then you’ll never have a chance at someone pulling your name out of the hat :D:D:D

P.s. Bring a tazer
 just incase

That is basically me these days. My most happy times are usually after work when I get to relax and play wow myself.

I really hope it doesn’t have to come to this. Like I will be crying if it does.

Yer.wife’ll kill ye for not wiping yer beard after a meal.

That’ll learn ye from marrying a Wildhammer!

I didn’t take what you said as snarky. I do want to point out that not everyone in their 40’s is fluent in dating. Example: Friend of mine since kindergarten is 43 yrs old. She’s had 2 long tern relationships (one being married) since we graduated high school and is now going through the last stage of divorce. She has not a clue about online dating do’s and don’ts and really, not sure what she wants as she faces diving back into the dating pool eventually.

To the OP, I have in the past when I was single. My husband, while we both play WoW, happened to have met at work but recognizing WoW on his laptop is what sparked the friendship that eventually, after a long while, led to where we are now.

Course I am not exactly oblivious. There is a lot of useful things I’ve learned over time. I’ve never had a relationship in my entire life start completely through online interactions however. And I have heard many stories of people meeting and having happy relationships in this game. In fact I’ve actually heard more positive than negative stories. I thought it wouldn’t hurt to at least ask what people have to say about this in case there is something I might learn in the process.

Always use protection, and veer away from political conversations, especially if he shows up with a MAGA hat on backwards. If that happens 
feet don’t fail you now!!!

Barring anything like catfishing/being an axe murderer and other Lifetime Movie subjects from the darker side of online dating
 the only negative I can think to mention that hasn’t already been mentioned is that online/virtual chemistry and iRL chemistry are 2 different things. I remember one person in particular, we had awesome online/in game chemistry. Met in RL and zilch. Nothing. And it wasn’t because of looks or anything like that because we knew what each other looked like from video chatting. We just got along better online! LOL

Honestly, if you have chatted outside of the game it is no different than an internet dating service. Go have some fun, who knows where you might end up.

Yes. I’ve learned a long time ago not to get involved in political conversations. It is a minefield and nobody wants to end up getting stressed over stuff like that.
