[QUOTE="Olaf the Stout, post: 5831178, member: 13703"] As much as my wife is so not in to gaming, and teases me about it from time to time, I know that it is most definitely good natured ribbing, not a lack of respect for me. For example, several of her friends know that I play D&D, so she isn't ashamed of me for it. We also play at our house each fortnight. She doesn't exactly hang out with me and the guys while the game is on (and it would be a little odd if she did hang around but not play), but she makes polite conversation with them before we start, much like I do when she has some of her friends over. I don't know if I could stay married to her if she didn't respect me for one of my hobbies to the point of telling me to stop doing it completely (providing of course that hobby wasn't something Dexter-like or similar! :D).
