Great point, Shoveler.

Do girlfriends/wives and video games ever mix?
Not with me. She calls my EQ time 'nerd chores'.

I started playing in Sept 2000. Met my wife in April 2001. She started her account around October 2001. We played together through the end of The Buried Sea when she sorta retired.

I took a break from EQ for around a year then started on P99/blue right before Velious was released. My wife started back on the Daybroken servers when green99 came out. She's happily playing on the Bristlebane server while I'm doing my thing on green.

So yes, they can mix but we're a weird exception and definitely not the norm.

Yes. My wife has a warrior and is in a raid guild.

OP I could not play green (except launch weekened! which was the high point anyway hehe) and thustly have not yet once plyaed a character that is of a class that a darkelf cannot be, while apeparing as a dark elf. And let me tell you this. After 21 years of wanting to do that? IM actually not gonna lie that I still want to do it as badlyl as I did in 99.

So in a way im glad I was forced to not be able to play through that portion of green and still have that dragon to chase.

So in the end life is how you look at it, because if i looked at it how I really felt I'd say all of that was a load of absolute horseshiit and that having a lustrous covered darkelf shaman with a red BP would be way better than this sniffing my own farts nonsense about still dreaming of all that! FILE THE PAPERS!

Maybe you should stop playing EQ for awhile and spend some time with your wife. A manastone / guise / locket of escape / other generic trash to be slightly better at 20 year old EQ is not worth your marriage, and if it is, you have bigger issues to work on together.

Sounds like grounds for divorce. Emotion Distress on your behalf, you don't have to give her half for the mental abuse.

Sounds like she needs a hobby and/or some friends. Just talk it out with her.

My wife isn't into gaming, but she's hot and is genuinely happy for me when I accomplish my goals, whether they are in life or in EQ.

It's not about the game, but you may need work on the fundamentals of your relationship. Supporting each others wants and needs is important to a healthy marriage as long as those wants and needs do not hurt anyone. Wish you luck.
