[QUOTE="Rel, post: 5436351, member: 99"] As my status says, I have an amazing wife. She was not a gamer when we started dating (about a billion years ago). But not long afterward she began to show some interest. She has always been what I would term a "casual gamer" when it comes to actual play. But she is incredibly supportive of the hobby and how it fits into our family. She's a bit choosy about which campaigns she'll participate in because she (rightly) views it as a commitment of time. But when she plays she's all in and totally awesome to have as a player. I've recently commented that when she isn't playing in a campaign I'm running, she's unquestionably my greatest resource as a sounding board and originator of ideas. In addition to all of that, she ran her first game ever (a one-shot Dread game based on Snow White) last fall and did amazingly well at it. She also participates in a game I'm running for just her and our daughter and generally encourages my daughter's interest in gaming. And I shouldn't fail to mention that she is incredibly gracious about hosting the many NC Game Days that we have, which result in a big pile of gamers descending upon our house for a couple of days. She also doesn't complain about the various other regional Game Days that we attend, making up a lot of our vacation time and budget. Anyway I'm smart enough to know that I'm crazy lucky to have her and that's to say nothing of her other amazing qualities. All the other guys I game with are married and I'd say that their wives fall within the range that runs between "mildly supportive" and "tolerates". [/QUOTE]
