I have 5 players, 2 women and 3 men the encompass a couple that are engaged to be married. This is common knowledge and a good thing. One of the other male players has come to me and said he doesn't want the players that are engaged to be engaged in game or have a relationship in game. Obviously this is not making the couple happy.
Last night, the whole party (save one) was killed. Everyone is creating new characters with backgrounds and the couple have come up with a creative background that has them related as adopted Uncle and nephew, (she is playing a male Dwarf, him a human that was abandoned as a baby found and raised by Dwarf's. Her character's brother is the adopter.) Knowing the other players as I do, 2 of them wouldn't care, the other would.
As a DM I try to make sure everyone is having fun and is comfortable while playing. Do I let one guy run the social structure of the game or tell him to just deal with it?
