[QUOTE="xnrdcorex, post: 4597493, member: 22160"] Unrelated to what your asking for, it seems you have some sort of issue, like your embarrassed about your hobbies, specifically D&D in this case. The fact that you'd marry someone and they didn't know about dungeons and dragons in your life is shocking to me. Also, that you can't even call your hobby by it's name to people when explaining it sounds like you are afraid that other people are so quick to judge and misunderstand it that you can't call it what it is. But it's just a game, a popular game that is widely recognized. My girlfriend of two years has no interest in D&D, but it and my other hobbies are apart of who I am. How can someone marry you and not know who you are completely. But, well, it seems that there are people(which surprises me because I've never known anyone like this) who play D&D or hobbies like it that are so embarrassed and scared of perceived misconceptions that they treat their hobby as if it's the same caliber of depraved behavior as picking up prostitutes or something. Maybe it's time to come to terms with the kind of person you are and the kind of things you like to do. I don't think anyone in reality cares what you do. You might even find that once you tell people the truth about yourself you get better xmas gifts. [/QUOTE]
