This is an epic story.


Don't cheat on your GF in space - or alternately - don't introduce your jealous paranoid GF to games with female avatars.

This is like a double morality story all wrapped into one.

Shocked





Hmmm was I just imagining things, or did anyone else see them claws pop out?
@~;~~~Senj~~~;~@

It had nothing to do with jealousy. I just did not like having to help him pay his bills while paying the rest of the bills, while he was steady spending, to throw all his time into chasing his fantasies around and I was getting kicked in the face and made his servant girl and all the while never once did I stop him from playing or take anything away from him. I even tried to meet him over half way. You really have no clueAttention Yeah something every good woman should have to go through.Roll


I feel im in that current situation with my girlfriend, im struggling to pay the bills and she´s helping me out immensly. The difference i feel in comparison to your boyfriend is that i refuse to spend money i dont have. If he has 3 accounts in eve and yet cannot fund all 3 from plex then he is not a good eve player, that or he really is taking you for a mug. Also if you need to go into the game in order to spend time with him you were doing it wrong anyway and should have dumped him anyway. I´d like to think i put my girlfriend first over EVE anyday. This is why you should not play eve with girlfriends/boyfriends, if they get into it they should discover it themselves, otherwise it just seems like they´re getting into it in order to spend time with one another. Plus it causes a ****-ton of arguements lol

See EvE as watching a movie or for some woman watching a soap show. We might not understand why our beloved ones like things we don't like but we should accept it and give each other the space to do so.

Cause EvE is just a hobby right? I know guys that play mmo's and won't even log off when someone dies and their girlfriend needed comfort or something like that....

Everybody prefers to 'fly a iteron V' in real life right? 'mining some real rocks' if you know what I am getting at?Roll

Sorry for my English... it is late here xD

Once the girls find out they can grief any male without consequences, they are pretty much hooked up to this game,

This is SOOO TRUE!!!!

I know a woman who whenever she is mad at her boyfriend, she logs on an alt that he doesn't know about and hunts him down and ganks him. She'll even use her main to rush over to him to help him when he sees his nemesis in local or hunting him in our wormhole. Amazing how often her client lags or locks up just as he needs rep's from her Onieros...

Sure am glad he never reads the forums... Lol

More WiS, it took me a long time to get over the "Im not a spaceship thing" and I was thrilled when Incarna came out.

Show her the char creation, get her to help you create a female toon.

1) Can a blow up doll play eve ?

2) You play another MMO (wow im guessing) you have no place in eve

3) Can Penguins play eve ?

I'd go with this. People in a healthy relationship tend to explore each others interests as part of the relationship. If she has chosen not to explore eve and simply dismissed it as rubbish from a surface look, or has explored it, decided she doesn't like it and thus decided to try and make you stop playing it, I suggest you slap that "abort relationship" button just as hard as you can.

Consider this:

My Wife lost a faction fitted Vindicator (roughly 1.5 bill) during a lvl 4 the other day Shocked (Bound to happen sooner or later)...

Now the ship itself and the modules was replaced very quickly but she almost cries when she looses a drone so you can imagine her reaction when that ship went pop... Bear


So ask yourself: Does she have the stomach to loose hard earned pixels in a flash, and can you afford her doing soQuestion


In my case yes, and, this are the last steps in my intricate scheeme to introduce her to Hard Core PvP. I figgure when she can handle her losses better, loosing a T1 ship in PvP will be nothing. Then I expect she get's the taste for blood and my Endgame of Eve is when:

She get's upset over something in RL, she goes into Eve and blow (your) stuff up to feel all better instead of breaking my stuff in RLLol

She get's her first confirmed kill and is all tingly and wan't to be extra nice to me for the experienceTwisted


How did I get her to play? Set her up with an account, forced her how to fly out to a belt and kill red plusses with her nubb ship. From there it was downhill.

This is fairly ambiguous question as everyones different I suppose, but I would LOVE to hear how people got their other halfs interested in playing eve?

I simply cannot play this game unless my girlfirend enjoys it as well as we met when I took a break playing another fantasy based MMO and now I desperately want to come back.. so far I haven't found anything which has raised any interest and I don't want to keep asking in case she completely goes off the idea.

The main issue is the lack of character I think, so it could naturally change when they finish the WiS patch.. anyway thanks in advance to any replys.

I would introduce her to piracy and smacktalking. Ladies love it.


Girls really do love to make others cry. We have a couple "blood-thirsty" females in our Ally that are too willing to press the "Pod-that-guy" button.

Don't dump her cause you're not garunteed to get another one. I suggest late night playing hours, much like sneaking off for an affair (I don't condone this)..

Or just going hard and telling her to deal with it.. More than likely she'll deal. or else she wasn't real with you to begin with.
