Warcraft Widows: An Internet Support Group

I heard somewhere one in every three WoW players actually has a girlfriend, wife, boyfriend, or significant other. My guess is more like one in fifty, but that's another story. So, what do those poor ignored partners do when their significant other's significant other turns out to be World of Warcraft? Why, start an internet support group , of course!

Following in the footsteps of the Everquest Widows group that was created way back in the nineties,WOW_widow was formed in 2005 to provide solace to all those ignored loved ones and boasts a hefty 2228 members. Check out some of the comments on an article about WOW_widow on afkgamer.com:

I tried the game to please him, and I actually did find it fun, but not THAT fun. the end came after we hadn't had sex for a week, and he chose to GO TO A WOW PARTY, INSTEAD OF HAVING SEX WITH ME.

Its one thing to take interest in something your boyfriend or husband does but if I have to pretend to enjoy the 1000th conversation about how excited he was when something dropped or how much gold he sold it for I think I'll slit my throat and aim the blood in his direction.

I sit in bed naked begging him to give me attention so I don't feel like an object that he just got bored with and found something better to entertain him. I do not mind if he plays, it is how much he plays that bothers me.

So these guys are giving up sex in favor of WoW? That's just damned sad.

So, remember guys, next time you're droning on about your latest Hoard raid, your girlfriend may be preparing to squirt you with neck blood.

My last relationship we played WoW together.

I know a couple that she plays WoW, and he hops on the 360. It works for them :P
