A first for The Escapist (probably)

[CrashBang]

My fellow escapists, I present to you a potential first for this site and possibly all video game forums... my girlfriend has joined the Escapist forums, which I think/hope means that she and I are the first couple to be on a gaming forum together ever
She bought herself a PS3 a few months ago and has become quite the gamer since, and so I told her about the site and she's made herself a profile
Just thought I'd share that with you
Can you confirm it? Are we the first? Thoughts?

And thus I bring about the question: have any of you done anything exceptionally nerdy together with a gf/bf/friend? Or maybe not even nerdy, just something bonding, like getting tattooed together or anything along those lines?

I tried to teach my girlfriend how to play Fallout. She didn't understand the controls and didn't want to kill anybody (bad guys included) It was quite the failure on my part.

 

[delet]

No, you're not the first. At all. I'm fairly certain there's other people here who are boyfriend girlfriend.

 

[Canid117]

What made you so sure this was a first?

 

[DeathWyrmNexus]

My wife visits the Escapist...

 

[fix-the-spade]

A couple of years back, two users on the Escapist got married to each other.

YOu are not the first by a damn long shot. There are plenty of others around here.

 

[CrashBang]

...wow. I was really confident that we were the first, but I'm really glad to see that there are others. It shows that maybe the nerd stereotype is actually fading away, awesome

I know several people whos GFs BFs are members on here.

I know several people who are Married and both are members of the Escapist.

Sorry Pal.

And yes shes a gamer, and yes she is far better than me, and yes she really is the color of a negative photo.
(just kidding about the last one.)

 

[Kastillo]

I don't think we are the first i mean there have to be other girl gamers out there....who date gamers other wise this is a sad sad world

Nope, my bf has an account on here, Zufiel. I made him get one months ago...now, if he would use the damn thing.

Really. i haven't noticed. lets go play some games.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

I think it is great that you and your girlfriend both enjoy video games.

But you are not the first.

 

[LeonLethality]

A couple of years back, two users on the Escapist got married to each other.

But that's a story for another time.

*all the children gather up and sit in front of you wide eyed and curious*
"Please tell us the story Mr. Spade"

OT: you're probably not the first, but you are probably of very few.

 

[CrashBang]

Haha superfail.

Aw thanks, you're such a sweety

Okay so I'm fairly sure that I was mistaken...

...yeah, yeah I was mistaken, I finally picked up on that

Reason I thought we might be the first was because, with all the threads about love and relationships, I've never seen one person mention a significant other being here on the escapist and thought it would be cool if they were
My bad

 

[swolf]

Bonding (nerdy): Does playing through Peggle together count? She also enjoys Red Dead Redemption and other games.

Bonding (not nerdy): I got my wife's name tattooed on my ring finger. For some reason, having it tattooed on instead of a ring works well to get unwanted female attention to leave me alone.

sorry but me and my boy friend Yojimbo108 have been on here together for a few months
