I got fired both times by the managers, but hung on to the women.

I speak from multiple personal experiences when I say that when/if the breakup occurs, it pretty much fractures the game group, often beyond repair. Your opinions are your own, and that's fine. All I know is that I'd want to have a ring on my finger before I introduced my SO to my gaming group. <abbr><em><i>Palette´s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/KTFu/~3/464408096/suffer-children-part-1.html" rel="nofollow">Suffer the Children, part 1</a></i></abbr></em> Allow me to rephrase.

An RPG is a social group for having fun. Dating people is part of fun. I would chance losing my RPG group for a girl; a job is quite different, that's bread and butter and sheer survival. Besides, if your friends can't stand you dating, then...they probably wouldn't be able to stand it in whatever situation. I would disagree. An RPG is a social group for having fun.
