I was half listening to a morning radio show this morning while I was getting ready for work and they were suggesting that women are better off going online and playing World of Warcraft than going to a site like Eharmony. They said the average age of a guy on Eharmony is 48 and on WoW it's 30 (I think). They also said there are hundreds of thousands more men on WoW than Eharmony.
I've never played any online games but it got me thinking and I figured I'd throw it out to SO to ponder. So what say you SO? Has anyone actually met someone from online gaming? Would you try this as a way to meet potential men?
Re: Gamers?
XH devoted hours and hours to effing WoW. Since that's the quality of man that's on there, I'd pass.
Really though, I mean I know he met people in groups and stuff, but they were all...weird.
hahahahahaha
Fucktotheno
never
no way
I will never date a gamer again. Never never never. My last bf was a gamer and we broke up bc he would rather play video games than spend time with me. He was 42. No way
LMAO this this this, I remember when we were dating, the first time he turned down sex to do some WoW appointment on the computer. I literally threw my panties at his head from where i was laying in the bed. Gah, red flag.
This is perhaps the stupidest idea I have heard.
Unless of course you like gaming. Then by all means...
Since XH played WoW more than just about anything else -- helping clean up from dinner, helping get ds ready for bed, doing his homework and then failed all his classes -- and he would be "playing WoW" when he was sending "secret" messages (I put it in quotes because I found these secret messages pretty easily) to his mistress, I don't think I'd want to go that route.
Plus, I met bf on eharmony and that worked out well for us
My circle of friends are all gamers or rennies (rennaisance faire addicts like myself), my exes are all gamers... yes I have a type.
My XH was/is seriously addicted to gaming. My X-BF before him is a gamer, though not addicted. We had a great relationship for the time we were together. I have some friends who are addicted and others who understand everything in moderation. Some of my best friends are gamers. Not all of them are the stereotype.
That being said, I know a few couples who met through gaming and are now married. So it does happen.
There is no death. Only a change of worlds
