Likuidice,First off, your mileage may vary; you may have found *the* person; take timeto soul search; etc.In _my_ experience, after I got married, my wife's "discomfort" at me roleplayingturned into "you can't - it's either rp or me."  I roleplayed 1X every 2 weeks, boughtonly the core books, nothing extreme or addict-like.  Just she didn't see thepoint of the childish-game.  And she didn't like some of the people I roleplayedwith for, I found out later, bigoted reasons.Next to go were computer games.Next to go after that was reading and writing science fiction.I did it all because I thought, as fusangite mentioned: " If you are very committed to this person and think it would be very very difficult to find a worthy partner in future, perhaps you should cave in to these admittedly unreasonable demands."(no offense, friend fusangite -- my mileage varied.)You can guess what happened.Now, I'm happily divorced, reunited after many years with my roleplayingfriends,  enjoying my hobbies, and loving life with a ferocity that palesmy beleaguered married life.  Of course, there were more problems in my marriage than roleplaying, hobbies, etc.But my spider-sense kicked off early on and I should've listened to it, should'verespected my private-time, should've known better.  In essence, likuidice, I remembered when I was sitting where you are now.Again, your mileage may vary -- maybe there's a deeper issue with her that you need to look at, find out why she's uncomfortable with your "kid's" game ( whichshould be a hint);  *steps off soapbox and dusts it off*sorry folks.  Just telling the tale from someone who just came out from the other side.-D</blockquote>
