[QUOTE="justanobody, post: 4558956, member: 70778"] With respect, I disagree with this approach. If there is something that you don't find enjoyable as part of the game, you need to tell people up front about it rather than just let people walk all over you for some infantile jokes later on. What later if the rumor becomes true and the character is decided to try to rape the other character or something. Don't let things start that you are not willing to take all posible outcomes for. If you do not like something someone is bringing up, then don't allow it in the game. There seem to be other female players of the group, so maybe one of them wants to try instead. Would you still suggest if it were a group of all guys, and the OP was the only girl and this idea was brought up that some character wanted to do some sort of relationship roleplaying with the player and her character? It IS OK to stop things if they are not something that will add to the game for all. If something affects only a single player via their single character, and they do not want to take part, then someone needs to get their priorities straight if they cannot have fun without that other player "playing along" just to no "poo-poo" an idea. Not to mention is the post you quoted was intended for in-character perspective, there would be in no way a dismissive for the idea of the relationship, but maybe the character really happens to feel that they need to align their priorities more on what is at hand to the characters. The DMG now states you should be able to say YES, but ANY player has the right to say NO. [/QUOTE]
