that friend on wow i met

Post Reply New Topic

ok this friend i met off wow i met him in uldaman.

i befriended him got really attached to him.

thought he was dating his gnome friend [going by wow terms] and got really mad and endlessly jealous [for what reason i cannot say] when she was in the party.

found out he liked me instead [true story] amazingly.

fell in love or something, threw up changed my feelings about him.

blocked him on msn changed my phone number

a few months later apoligized intensely got back to being friends.

went through a meltdown cause he wasn't talking to me much anymore.

quit wow and only returned when he asked me to.

and now we barely talk cause he don't come on msn much anymore.

what the heck is wrong with me, i've never had a friendship or feelings like this, now i'm between him and my story. i want more that this life can offer cause i feel like i'm standing still. but i still have that fantasy world i can't let go of.

Been there, done that. I had a "Wow Relationship" that lasted for about a year, she had some folks talking about me behind my back, so she eventually drifted away and i never even got a, "Im sorry, but thanks for a good year." Sudden emotional attachment is a hazard.

wow, i don't think black [nickname i call him] is doing that, i came on there everyday and was still unknown even though i was there nearly a year.

I played on uldum since beta in 04... But haven't logged on at all this year

i meant uldaman the dungeon sorry i wasn't clear on that.

I'd be distrustful of WoW relationships if it's already that helter skelter.

Some people just like to flirt in between their regular married with children lives...

I've heard some horror stories out there...

your probably right about that. but black is divorced he was married to a bi polar girl who never took medication for it. i think now he's just trying to fill the void.

his real name is john by the way i call him black because that's what his name was in wow.

horror stories? yeah i wouldn't doubt that.

but the thing is i don't want to hurt him, he has watched my back as i have watched his, he made me feel welcome in a game that was out of my element. he pushed me to do things i would never have done alone, he helped me so much just by enduring my freak outs and meltdowns, and in the end he still never blamed me. he is an nt who isn't bothered by my AS and actually knew a bit about it.

these traits are what i like in a person, i like someone who is what he has been to me, a good friend.

now he keeps asking me for my cell number, he's getting on my nerves with it too.

maybe this friendship ain't worth my time.

sorry for double post i couldn't edit.

if it was just someone you mt running an instance, the fact that he keeps trying to talk to you is rather disturbing. Honestly, 5 minutes after I've finished an instance I can't even remember the name of the tank that kept losing aggro...

Oh damn . . . that's that's the same server i started on ('04 or '05, cant remember). If you were horde, i apologize if i ever took a crack at you.

sorry, off topic, i know . . .

now that you mention it it is rather disturbing, the whole bugging me for my cell number and hitting on me is disturbing, i regret ever playing wow now.

not that that's a bad thing wow ruined my eyes or so i say. i proabaly shouldn't have ever started playing wow.

also he said to me that i should find a different aspie site cause he thinks you're all against him. i was not happy when he said that i love this forum.

Cant blame WoW for everything . . . everyone has a potential to be an idiot, doesnt matter if its online or in public.

Ok. Like... what? I grant you, the people makeing personal amusement out of Seasonal cloths through flirting get very tireing. How you can 'fall in love' in under 30 minutes without seeing someone is beyond my grasp.

Quit WOW.

Offline RPG games are way better anyways.

Don't regret playing the game though... wow is just like real life where social interactions are concerned... you have the immature folks, the creeps, the jerks, and the occasional nice guy here and there. Okay there's more to it than that, but the point is that you shouldn't have this one experience color your entire perception of wow. It would be like meeting a creep at the grocery store and then deciding that you would never go to the store again.

In all honesty, I find playing wow, talking here on the forums, etc. to be kind of refreshing. Because I keep my online persona completely separate from my real life identity, and I can much more easily change my online persona (i.e. register under a new name) than I can in real life, if things become *too* unbearable I have an escape option available. Not so in real life. So I/m more likely to "get out there", as it were, online than I am in real life.

What I would do is report this guy to a GM for harassment (Blizzard has a whole policy about that) and see if they can do anything. Worst-case scenario, you'd have to roll a new character or get one of those paid name changes (but only in the most extreme circumstances)

I've had a "WoW relationship" as well, let's just say it didn't end very well. =.= -sigh-

I kind of warn the people i flirt with that it's all in good fun now, and that it should never get too serious (gotta be realistic, even though it hurts).
