World Of Warcraft Can Change Your Sex Life

Do the gamers have game? What’s behind the avatar? Can an Undead Warlock ever get along with a Gnome Warrior? Nerve.com got down and dirty with a handful of World of Warcraft players to find out what’s up in their bedroom and in Azeroth. We’ve got the highlights ...
The Good
- Attention to Detail: So they’ve got to balance quests and raids, as well as their fellow players’ needs. You can expect a similar level of diligence in bed.
- Compromise: Your raiding buddy wants the same epic you do, but his need is greater, so you let him have it. Next time, you get the awesome armor. WoW players should be able to apply this same principle by ceding ownership of the remote control or agreeing to visit your mother.
- Brain power: Playing WoW keeps those creative juices flowing. And if what they say about the brain being our most powerful sexual organ is true, then that WoW ought to be the sexiest stimulator!
The Bad
- Dates: Birthdays and raiding schedules may compete. Yikes!
- Loyalty: So you’re both players. You’re with the Horde, and he plays for the Alliance. The whole relationship may be doomed to fail in major Romeo and Juliet a-plague-on-both-your-houses way.
- Jealousy: One of you is bound to have better gear or bigger skills. As if real life didn’t offer enough opportunity for the green-eyed monster.
And finally, some great advice about (non-WoW) porn from a WoW player:
“I think every couple should talk about sex openly; that said, I wouldn’t “Go ahead and pop in a DVD.” Talk to her casually and see how she feels about porn. If she’s open to it, perhaps start with something a little more soft-core before breaking out the crazy stuff. Make sure you are watching this to enhance the experience together. Don’t make it seem like you’re imagining Jenna Jameson’s face on her body.”
What say you? What does WoW do for you? [Nerve]

It's kind of sad to say but my boyfriend and I used to suffer from the jealousy issue. Not to brag or anything but I'm wicked good at classes like priest and cleric, which is most mmos is a big deal because "save the healer, save the group". My boyfriend took awhile to find his niche and all the while he was openly jealous that I came into my own so easily. Now we've both found classes that make us happy and we're wicked good at.This is one Night Elf Priest that loves and is loved by her Draeneii Death Knight.

The nifty thing about my boyfriend and I is that we both play together, but we don't compete. He's a tank, and I love to heal, so we pair up really well. It doesn't hurt that I'm a chick and can get away with some things and am worshipped for being a kickass female player, too. ;DThat, and I play Aion as well, so he appreciates me more when I come back and play with him.

I've always been afraid of falling for a WoW player. I've heard too many stories of guys always blowing off plans for raids and whatnot. :/

Oh yeah WOW is killing my cousin's sex life. Mostly because she raids for 12 hours a night and her live in boyfriend is about to stage an intervention. Ive already started my "You addiction to WOW has affected my life negatively in the following ways" letter.

My ex-fiance and I never got around to setting a date before we broke up. But he WAS open to the idea of our avatars getting married in WOW...

And here I thought that what you learned as a child about getting along with other people translated into your ability to get along with people both in virtual worlds and in romantic relationships.I love WoW as a leisure activity, but I would never dream of telling my husband that it's making me learn to compromise, or giving me a greater attention to detail.The biggest benefit I see is that many MMO players learn a lot about networks and other confusing computer-y things in their quest to maintain a stable internet connection. And a roommate (romantic or otherwise) who knows how to fix your internet is fantastic.

my boyfriend and I both play and it is actually better that way, gives us something else to bond over, we play online together while he's off at school out of state. And yes the sex is great. and it's totally fine that he's Alliance and I'm Horde. He knows Horde pwns so it works. FTW!

My boyfriend and I played WoW for quite some time until school priorities took over. But during then, we both were on alliance (and we knew how bad it sucked, but it was too late to switch), he was a paly, i was a warlock - no need to fight over gear! and we played/raided side by side (my laptop, his desktop) in the same guild. Things were fine. Wow didnt define our sex life. If we wanted to do it, we did, during a raid "uhh, i need a bathroom break! yeah.. me too!" We had a relationship before, during, and after playing WoW. As we still do 6 years later of still playing computer games while mainting a completely healthy social and sex life. People - living a normal life playing video games CAN be done. You dont need a WoW manual to tell you that.

I hate to say this... but I really have a love/hate relationship with WoW. I've been clean and sober for awhile now, but I was pretty hardcore - played since day one, core-raider on every stage, from vanilla to Lich King. My ex and I used to play together, and while there was no competition between us class-wise (he was a tanking Pally, and I a Lock) he was pretty childish and annoyed with the fact that I was a guild officer, head of caster DPS during raids, and pretty well respected by everyone. He was of course a hardcore raider as well, so I wasn't neglecting him or anything (he actually played more than I did, and felt that he deserved more 'status' than I did). Though he put in more time, he just couldn't handle that I apparently "did better" and had a position of authority in our large guild, and our sex life as well as our relationship really suffered. I cut back on something I enjoyed because he'd get really petty and angry about it. Long story short, I quit him and eventually the game. Guess finding out that someone is a selfish jerk can come about in the oddest of ways...

For the horde!!!!We play together a lot, him helping me level my main originally, now I'm running his new character, although he thinks I should play more. Lol!!! I hate to say I'm one of those girls that plays because my boyfriend does, though.Actually, I lied. I used to be that girl. If I wasn't dating him, I'd still play. But that isn't gonna happen!!!! ;) He's mine, and so is his toon. lol!!!!

When I first met my guy, I knew he played a lot, but I had no idea.After I got to know him, he said that the reason why he played so much was because he was using it as an outlet when he was frustrated.Push came to shove and he spent a whole day on there basically ignorning me.So a few weeks later, I broke down and loaded it onto my computer. (I had purchased it years ago, but never played.)Now we play a lot together.I send him the supplies, he makes me more armor.And about once a week or so he asks if I want to run through a dungeon, and I loot them all.We also just moved in together. I am living with a Human Death Knight, who is in love with his human warlock.

For the Alliance!! heheBefore i started dating my bf (been over a year now!) he got me into wow. I have always been really into video games since the day I was born but never tried out a huge mmorg like wow before. He helped me level up a bit my druid (hes a warrior and paly) and we are both addicts i think -.-We do spend our weekends together though and we work together throught the week so we definitely get lots of time together. and when we get home we meet eachother ingame haha. sex life (as its both our firsts ;3) is quite good. wow doesnt affect us too much except when we do 2v2 and he yells at me if i make a mistake (alot >.>) but its all good. Sorry im just addicted to this game.

OR - it can completely ruin a relationship as it did with my man and his ex who would play all day and night and ignore him completely when he came home.

I've done the World of Warcraft gaming with now-exes. Not fun.Because it means you enable eachother's addiction towards the game.It means you guys don't ahve a relationship you have an e-relationship. The ex in particular would get mad because I would have better gear and have a higher character and etc.
