Gaming and orgies don't mix

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

So the real question was why did Kerry fool around with a married woman in the first place.

Why not? It's not his relationship that's being trashed, nor is he the one committing adultery by going outside his marital bed. He's not his brother's keeper.

Not that she's his sister-in-law, hopefully, because this is already a mess.

Too big a mess for rational people's comfort.....

Using a game to get a sex partner: bad idea.

Ummm... yeah. Let's see here, your friend joined a group that had issues. I would think that your "friend" would be just respectful enough to simply bow out if he is uncomfortable, and not go posting their issues (no matter how soapy) all over the boards.

I appreciate your attempt to post us all a good laugh, but I must agree with Emperess... really what does your story have to do with "Female Gamers"?

It seems to me that your friend is confusing the actions of one person, whom just so happens to be female (in this case) that has exercised poor judgement. Also, without consulting or confirming his thoughts of what the GM (male) in the party really had in mind or intended, has passed unjust judgement upon another. To make things worse, I hope that they unknown to all on this board, because you have just done the favor of announcing your friends awkward situation to the world. You both should be embarassed for your, perhaps singularly rare, serious lack of judgement.

First off, get over yourself.

Second off, he does not intend to go back to that group. Third, none of them read ENworld, so it's a non-issue, and even if it was, he wouldn't have shared the experience with the rest of his group.

Lastly, I already addressed the subject of this thread with Emperess. I suggest you go back and read that response.

First off, get over yourself..

I second the motion......

Maybe I've always had the joy of playing with people that have the same (or similar enough) moral standards, but I find this entire situation totally weird.

But, then again, I'm not one to associate with any woman that would play footsie with my man. I'm a wee bit protective.

So, what's this couple's address again?...

 

[the Jester]

Okay, so first of all I am the wife involved in this.

My husband and I don't always try to had you going for a second there, didn't I?

*slicks back his hai--*...awwww, Jester!

Well, my best friend and her husband are swingers. Frankly I'm just as comfortable in a group of their alternate lifestyle friends as I am with friends of any of the other members of our D&D group. Often I am more comfortable with the alternate lifers because they have fewer hangups and tend to be very accepting of, and respectful towards, others. The parties can get pretty wild, too. I'm very sure my best friend and her husband have not tried to "recruit" anyone from the group to their lifestyle. Though they did meet someone at one of their lifestyle parties who plays D&D, and he will be joining our group shortly. Swingers are no worse, in general, than any other group, including gamers.

Reminds me of a story. About twenty years ago, I had a regular Saturday night game at the house of another couple. One of the group members was Assistant Manager of the local Pizza Hut, so he would always show up shortly after midnight with fresh pizza which would keep us going until dawn. One night the husband of the couple was at the end of the table with his wife on his right and my buddy on his left. During a momentary break in the action, the husband got up to go make some tea. His wife got a funny look on her face and asked "How did you do that? Haven't I been playing footsie with you for the last half hour?" My buddy turned bright red, smiled sheepishly and said, "No, that was me." The whole group roared with laughter and we had to take a break before we could get back to playing again.
