[QUOTE="Caius, post: 1882392, member: 24915"] I must have been about 12 or so when I first started gaming. the person who taught me was my babysitter's brother who was a few years older. I was sort of into fantasy and my babysitter suggested it actually as something to do. I moved but her brother continued to come over for games, he eventually became my boyfriend and still is to this day. so I definatly didn't get into gaming for a guy, it just sort of came about as I've read from other posts. but I've know players who brought their girlfriends to the games in "attempts" to learn but they wouldn't and just generally caused problems from complaining to their bf's about lack of attention, or they were bored. I don't understand why the girl would want to go in the first place if she wasn't going to do anything especially after she already went through it once. there was one girl who came to just keep an eye on her boyfriend as there was some in character flirting between my PC and his. (we never spoke to each other outside the game, he went to a different school and I was like 4 years older than he was) plus she did seem overly clingy to him. Has this happened to any other groups? maybe it was a unique situation. but eventually the group let those two players go, because they were dragging their gf's and because they only made one game about everytwo months when we play every other weekend.
