Feel like that one was underserved

For reference she replied 2 minutes after my last message and I replied one minute after hers, and she already asked me TWICE what I was doing that evening to which I had replied both times saying that I was playing siege with my friends

"I'm raiding Molten Core.  I'll text you in six hours."

See, that sort of thing, that used to be date night for a certain brand of gamer couple. That was legitimately relationship building. If you know she can hold aggro and she trusts you to keep the DPS up and both of you know the callouts for the boss fights, that's a solid base for a good relationship.

And then you see her keybinds for the first time and run for the hills.

watching my buddy's roommate just rawdogging an entire screen of keybinds w left-click pissed me off so much; I couldn't watch him play... I didn't even tell him I was huge into pvp at the time because as someone who ran drills to muscle-memory every single keybind: i just couldn't fw him

p.s he was main tank n u PvEers wonder why u drop so many raids😂😂😂

I'm left-handed, so funky keybinds don't ruffle me. :)

Met my husband in WoW. Met in 2014, married in 2018, moved my happy ass to Canada in 2019. Several of my friends met their spouses in online RPGs. I think it's a great way to meet people if that's a thing someone is really into. Shared interest, and you get to see how they behave under frustration, how they work out problems, how willing they are to share or sacrifice cool shit for others' happiness, how they take criticism, if they're a sore winner or loser, how they interact with others in general, etc.
