Whenever my ex and I were at the store, we noticed the EQ box in the electronics department and thought it looked cool. Finally after about a month he bought a copy and started playing. He was hooked and I was pissed lol. About a month later he made me sit down and make a character.

haha, how oddly familiar.

The Wife and I went to the computer store, I was going to pick up Baldur's Gate or something similar, actually - I'm not sure why I went, but it was to get a game.

She wanted... something... She looked around and found this game called 'Everquest'. I said, "There's NO WAY I'll pay a monthly fee for a game, that's stupid".

But - I was ok paying it for her, since if she was busy gaming, that meant I could be too, lol.

So at first I had this hardcore "No pay per month" for a game attitude. And would kinda ignore her playing. But as time went by, I'd watch a bit more and a bit more... She finally talked me into making a character. A DE SK.

I started out - the long dark trail in Nek just *amazed me* at what was down there. I bought the game a week or so later, lol. But she was playing a HE Cleric - so I made a Human Warrior - but didn't stick with that long, that was 'hardcore' for a newb such as I. She already had her set of friends, so by and large, we played separate for quite sometime.
