So how does your girlfriend feel about your love for tabletop?

She participated with me all the time. I was very impressed; we've had a lot of fun with tabletop over the last seven years, even after getting married. It's been really great.

And now she's left me for one of the other players, and I'm going to butcher him and make her watch.

>There are only two options.

>Both my wife and my girlfriend

Daily reminder that if you are leaving yourself to binary choices, you are intentionally crippling yourself.

She'll play any setting that lets her have a dog companion. Her characters are all over the map, but they gotta have a borzoi. Fucking loves borzoi more than me, probably. I'd go for it RL but a. co-ownership of a dog is a pretty big leap and b. we live in a city, what're we going to do with a big-ass hunting dog.

She'd been doing it before I met her, though. One of my secret triumphs is when she replaced her phone background with a picture of us and not one of the borzoi owner blogs she follows. Apparently they're their own community.

So basically she's fine with me playing fantasy so long as she gets her own fantasy, which is owning a ridiculous dog. Not too bad.

Wait, there's more than one Poly on the board besides me? I was always under the impression that Veeky Forums was 98% monogamous.

I bet one of you is fucking this dude's wife

Monogamous means 1 partner. Tg is sologamous.

She played D&D in high school, same as I did, and she plays in my game now.
I also got her into MTG, and she doesn't mind board games, but she never really gets in to them either - she likes playing a character rather than playing a game.

They're going to leave you, you stupid fucks. All of you are fools!

>Being still this butthurt about parents divorce
But Steve, it was ALL your fault

She's kinda ambivalent.
That's fair though, she never really played any games when she was younger, and would probably get a bit confused if she tried.
Also I haven't pressed her, because she's previously said she's uninterested.

We actually play on the same group, we got together thanks to DM intervention.
It's weird how two years ago I was living in hicksville middle of nowhere fingering trailer trash and farm girls; now I'm living in a trendy college town dating a prim and proper korean traditional girl.

>we got together thanks to DM intervention.

STO-REE-TIME

STO-REE-TIME

I don't want her to leave, user...
I can't remember how to be me anymore. It's only her, all the way down.

Not a lot to tell, she noticed we liked each other but were hesitant to do anything about it so she made us sit next to each other, made our characters interact a lot and made her spit on my drink on a dare. Basically broke the ice for ice for us and we took it from there.

Probably still is 98% most of the poly's here seem to post around 8-10pm us mountain time for some reason.

>significant other

I... was supposed to get my wizard powers by now.

I feel that I have been mislead.

user...

She thinks it's pretty cool. She's been liking the board games so far, loved Secret Hitler. Might segue into Paranoia, since that's sort of a mix between Secret Hitler and a more traditional RPG

Fuck You.

I have a friend who literally has this agenda.
And this is a guy who teaches dance classes with smoking hot girls as a full time job, so there is no shortage of ammunition!
He simply states that he cannot understand why any of us (the usual gang) has time to have girlfriends and family, as it takes away from the hobby.

The worst part is that they want to keep playing. Do I play along until a good opportunity to strangle him appears? Just go in blazing out of the gate? Or just cuck out and give up?

Elf hands down

Im not the man to have a waifu, but if i did it would be Elvira

>elf is a picture of best girl

Didn't even read the fucking post, you fucked yourself over.

My wife tags along about every other time I go board gaming, and she also has a roleplaying group she plays with about once a month. She's asked if I'm interested in tagging along, but I'm more into strategy and their group is heavy on the RP.

user we need to take you to the bunny ranch and get you fucked.

Someone sell their 40k stash to get this dude laid.

Marceille a shit with fat ears

Me and my wife play savage worlds with a group of our friends because we all have shit taste. Also we've started playing DnD with a few of her co-workers. She has fun but she has trouble coming up with back stories for her characters and actually role playing

I'll fight you.

On a completely unrelated not, I had a dream last night where a friend called me and said "Hey Elvira just moved into town do you go hang out at her place?" to which I of course responded "Hell yeah!" thinking I would get to see a bunch of cool memorabilia. When I arrived I found out the house was only half constructed and all her stuff beside the furniture was at her old place, disappointed I sat on her couch and ate some fairly underwhelming chicken that I ended up accidentally dropping on floor and then the dream ended.

I have no idea why I had that dream, what it means or why I thought I'd share it but there ya go

It's not so bad, I tell myself. Also please do not sell your 40K. I think a hooker that price would kill me.

Sorry ladies, I only have room for the love of the Emperor in my heart!

Emprah sez: fuck bitches make guardsmen.

Like most of my interests, she doesn't see the appeal for herself personally but she sees that it makes me happy so she's all for it

Mine doesn't particularly care, she has mild interest but if given the choice would probably prefer vidya.

I don't have one.

However let me tell you a player and friend of mine and his gf.
>friend and I thirsting for a campaign
>finally manage to round up some buddies for 5e
>no one can settle for a date
>a week passes
>hope is gone
>friend tells me his gf has 2 friends thirsting for a campaign too but they need a GM
>gf wants to play too
>oh boy, I know how this ends
>accept anyways
>session 0
>she understands almost everything I explain fairly quickly
>makes a male rogue halfling that offers weapon and artifact restoration services
>it's actually a scam, he actually forges a copy and keeps the original
>I love it
>not that great roleplayer but still manages to act fairly consistently according to her character
>her friends are pretty chill guys and great players
>realize she saved the campaign

If they ever break up, I'm gonna cry.

even on the battlefield?

She likes playing board games well enough but she doesn't play the more nerdy stuff like D&D or Mtg.

And the moral of the story is that you were the faggot that came in with your preconceptions because "girl" and likely almost ruined everything yourself.

Elf pro/con
Pro: like 5e, posts on /pol/, plays 40k, likes nids.
Neutral: plays tau
Con: pegging, fart jokes, likes Steven universe, BLOODY ELF.

Shit.

Wifey likes D&D almost as much as I do. Get her into 3E cause splatbooks and let her go crazy. she creates new monsters, races, artifacts, fuck she is in the middle of worldbuilding right now. thank FUCKING GOD.

GODDAMNIT. THEY'RE BOTH SO SHIT.

The elf would be less shit but liking Big Bang Theory is such a massive stain that it drags the rest of her down hard.

>Implying I have a girlfriend
>Implying I've ever had a girlfriend
>Implying I'll ever have a girlfriend

I'll be your girlfriend user.

Especially on the battlefield

she used to play when she was younger, but doesn't now. shes kind of interested but also kind of doesnt want to, but she asks me how the campaign went sometimes (i'm the dm).

In my defense, it has nothing to do with them being girls. It's just that we've had negative experience with friends bringing their gf (and bf in one occasion) to game nights in the past.
As a matter of fact, he revealed to me he hesitated too.

Here, have an opposite anecdote:
>same friend GMing a one shot
>other friend joins too
>we're going to play in his country house
>brings his gf
>she wants play
>cool
>she makes a super special snowflake noble elf spellcaster
>one shot, so who cares
>she won't stop ordering the rest of the party
>play along to get this thing moving
>she gets mad at her bf over the dumbest and tiniest things
>things escalate
>they both storm out yelling
>spend the rest of the night drinking beer with friend while they have makeup sex

>Steven-Universe
>blue-black
>Varg threads
>Kill La Kill
>Big Bang Theory
>Cigarettes
>Thinks Wyverns should count as Dragons

The elf must die.

Oh and she's into Incase too, user.

You're in for a strapping good time.

You're gonna get buttfucked

I play 5e with her other boyfriend. She's not in the game. I don't particularly think it interests her directly (though she's talked about doing a game with him), but she's a bit of a fantasy nerd herself so she flirts with some character concepts in some of her doodles.

My waifu wouldn't mind. She'd probably enjoy the storytelling. I'd probably have to keep track of her character sheet, but that's okay.
She'd probably love to play cleric, it really seems her type.

I don't have one. But I want one.
It's just hard to find the time to put myself out there though. I work 10 hours a day and work weekends. Factoring in time spent getting ready for work, driving, and sleeping, I only have 3 1/2 hours of free time a day, and that's around 9 at night.

God my job is killing me.

Where do you work?

THis.

Elf has no actual pros, except being a cheesecake elf.

Actually, if you go to the Chicken Ranch (or whatever it's called, it's the closest legal Brothel to Vegas) It's only about $400-$600 depending on what sex acts you'd like. Prices are negotiable, and I hear most virgins get a discount.

Commissioned sales. Because I'm commission, not hourly, I'm exempt from Overtime laws. So I work 46-50 hours a week. I also work about half an hour to 45 minutes away depending on traffic. Weekends are our busiest days, so everyone works them.
But I've never made even close half of what I do now, so yay I guess.

Out of curiosity, how do I introduce a girlfriend to my wife? Legitimately want answers to this one.

I still override rules and go with multi-track drifting

It's not worth it

I won't fucking touch sales

I'm looking for a job and the cultures keep coming after me

The other day I got a phonecall that woke me out of a dead sleep (I work nights so this was at 9 am) and a woman with an Indian access to tells me they saw my resume and liked it, and I've bee. Shopping it around so I'm like oh shit cool. We have a brief phone interview and it seems like she's into me (professionally speaking) and then she just offhandedly mentions it was for fucking insurance sales. I had to stop her spiel twice to get her to confirm, and when I told her I wasn't interested in comissioned sales she spouted off a okthanksbye and hung up

Fuckers are trying to trick me.

The dwarf would at least be tolerable, while the elf is pretty much a shit tier non-human being.

My girlfriend wants me to run a game of MAID. I have mixed feelings about this.

She's not a fan but she doesn't mind it. She makes fun of it sometimes but is pretty chill.

Occasionally she's expressed a passing interest in learning but I'm not really keen for that to happen. Bringing a girlfriend into a game is fraught at the best of times, and in her case I'm not convinced she could take it seriously enough not to ruin it for everyone else. (Not that trpgs are srs bsns or anything but some basic level of commitment is necessary as a player.) The only character idea she has ever suggested was 'a dwarf, mage, version of Danny DeVito. Wearing a thong.' Which I don't necessarily find encouraging.

She sometimes dresses up as an LoTR elf and throws me a cheap knight costume and yells something about being her Aragorn, or whatever.

I dunno man.

>The only character idea she has ever suggested was 'a dwarf, mage, version of Danny DeVito. Wearing a thong.' Which I don't necessarily find encouraging.
Clearly you haven't watched ZARDOZ yet. You should go watch ZARDOZ.

THE GUN IS GOOD.
THE PENIS IS EVIL.

It's at that amazing threshold of silly and serious.

i wouldnt be with a girl that shit on my hobbies. those types of girls are one night stand material or girlfriend for awhile to help pay the bills at most. fuck people without hobbies/interests or that people that shit on yours. fuck them.

We met at a game actually. Friend of a friend's girl.

I mean I do actually think she'd be good in a light hearted campaign, but not with my regular group.

>strapping good time.

HAH

pegging

I kind of want to jack off to Elvira now

Plays eldar

Thinks Tyranids are cute

How do they check if someone is a virgin?

She also plays.

>other boyfriend

>Is she a fan too, or does she shit on it?
What kind of beta fuck stays in a relationship where their partner shits on their passions?

I'm not currently in a relationship, but when read: if I am, I expect partner to at least tolerate my interests. If she loves tabletop, that's great. If she doesn't, that's fine, but she should understand it's something I enjoy.

If you let someone try to change you by telling you your interests are bad, you deserve what you get.

Either that or a direct ripoff of Zatoichi.

>Cheesecake elf
Pound her senseless in the morning then you don't have to worry about her for the rest of the day.

Solved.

Theres 3 of us it seems

Sounds like an asexual.
Or one who hasnt met my girl, she spends more time sorting out the campaign i dm than i do

When we started dating and talking about things that we liked I mentioned that I liked 'board games' and she told me she loved playing board games. We were both being a little bit dishonest - when I said 'board games' I meant CCG's and wargames, and when she said that she 'loved board games' she meant she liked playing Monopoly once a year on Christmas afternoon.

During the first year she tried, just like I tried to get into some of her interests (like anime). She would sit across from me and try to puzzle out the card games, the war games, the occasional RPG. As time passed and we stopped trying to impress each other, her interest faded, and these days we never play them.

And I think that's fine, to be honest. She has her things, I have my things, and we some other things that we do together. I hit up the LGS two or three times a month to play, and she's never said one bad word about my playing.

The first person I dated when I moved to this city was way big in to CCG's, and it was kind of a pain. The mostly male population of players seemed to low-key resent me for snagging the qt of the group. Every interaction with them was a sort of contest, with each of them trying to show me up at every turn. I'm not big on confrontation, so that made playing very unpleasant for a while.

Compromising like adults, on my Veeky Forums? Madness.

She's not really into it, but she's cool about it. Everytime I come home from my weekly pathfinder game she asks me how it went and if I killed anyone ( since I'm a Forever GM).

>I only date stereotypes
I feel for you.

>Complains about beta fucks
>Never in relationship himself
Is this a new mutation of friendzone meme?

Jokes on you, because that's the way how you sustain a healthy, long-going relationship.

Why would anyone shit on a table? Excluding germans that is.

This. I would literally rather be dead. Telemarketing shouldn't exist.

And yeah, I don't know how many times I've seen ads for shit like "communicator" or "marketing associate" or some shit like that, and it turns out to be telemarketing.

Not that guy, but it's pretty fucking beta to be led around by the nose by your girl. Sure, most men are so thirsty they'll sell their entire existences for sex, but just because most people do it doesn't make it admirable.
