Oh...the stars are back. I thought they were done away with because it encourages some to spam the boards with useless, unnecessary posts. Nothing to worry about here...I'm WAY far away from the next milestone. By then I'll have been a member of the boards for 24 years or so. laugh

How so? It'd make it actually seem like we're active?

Oh no Jon, we actually try and get together as a group for meetings, but it usually ends up being just three or four of us. Oh I guess you are right with the seem. LOL!

You were playing World of Warcraft too much and she threw a fit about you never spending time with her?

You know, you should still go to DragonCon because you can meet all sorts of chicks that will be playing it right along with you. That's what I love about it...you finally get to mesh with people of your own niche.

Sorry to hear that Jon. You need to find someone who would enjoy playing as well; then you two could fight over the computer. lol



What we need is something to talk about to keep the four or five of us interested. LOL

Well if she dumped you because of that she was not the girl for you. Hang in there! You are a great guy and the right girl will come along. Or maybe alot of wrong ones to keep you occupied. LOL! grin

The ironic thing is it was the other way around. She played too much and I was the one that got pushed to the side for it. And when I tried to remind her that actually spending time with your SO is important for a healthy relationship, she called me "controlling and emotionally abusive". She just couldn't set the game aside.

Last weekend I took her to a musical in KC (50 minutes from here in Lawrence). She was 15 minutes late getting ready and had barely glanced at the map by the time we actually left because she was so busy playing. Then when we finally get there, she was so confused as to where it was (due to not having read the map) that she told me to park 2 miles away... 5 minutes before the show started. Then the whole time during the drive there and the intermission, she still couldn't set the game aside and was busy texting her guild mates.

How much unclassier can you get than ignoring your significant other and texting other guys on a fracking date.

I've been there... hugs

Poor Jon, we just automatically assumed you were the hopeless nerd. Ah well, you'll bounce back. Hell, if I were a woman...well, probably not. But still, you're alright! tongue

I'm so sorry! As Christian said, I just assumed that you were the bigger gaming nerd. tongue It seems to me that she needs to learn the meaning of the phrase "Everything in moderation". Don't worry. We all have to go through a lot of relationships that are "learning experiences" (some are more bitter to learn than others) before we meet someone special. Every time you will come away with more things to add to your list of "Things I want in a spouse" ...or don't want even. By the time you reach my age, dating will be pointless because the chance of finding someone who fulfills your requirements will be almost nil. laugh Would I sound jaded if I said that you have to go into every relationship completely expecting it to destroy you, but secretly hoping it won't?

*Hugs*
