My reply to a thread on the MMO Champion forums

Topic: What was your first thought when you saw WoW?

“[After boyfriend at the time told me that he played WoW]
“WOAH that game is OUT?!”
[goes to look at game website]
“WOAH YOU CAN BE A SHAMAN?? I WANT TO USE BLOODLUST!”
[boyfriend loads up WoW to show it to me]
“OMIGOD THAT LOOKS SO COOL!!!”
[he tells me that he is Alliance. Oh, and since this is vanilla, there is no bloodlust!]
“…I think we should break up.”

5 years, 2 “attempts to quit” and 7 boyfriends later…

“I can’t date a guy who doesn’t play WoW. But he has to be good at PVP and can’t play a hunter and has to play Horde and not make me pay to transfer to his server and my guild has to like him and… fuck it, I’m just going to q up for some random heroics on all of my 80s all night.”"
