Some friendships or relationships aren't possible without Runescape

Some friendships or relationships aren't possible without runescape


Some relationships just aren't possible in real life because you might never meet the other person. You may have met some really good friends in runescape that are from California, while you live really far away, there is a chance that you could've never met that friend in real life. Players live in different countries.

Many people compare runescape to a dating chat room. Runescapers aren't looking for love or relationships on purpose when they first join the game, they're just there to play the game. In real life, people look for love or relationships on purpose. Some people don't get a long with people in real life but have an easier time to get along with players in runescape. In real life, people looking for relationships often try to impress members of the opposite sex, they try to get in bed with them. You aren't trying to do this in runescape and if you meet the right person, it could turn out to be a better relationship because you aren't trying to sleep with them, you know everything about them naturally for who they are. Of course, you still have to worry about people lying about who they are, pretending to be someone their not online. So I'm not saying that runescape is a better place to find relationships. I'm just saying that it can be better for some people. If you're asked for a date theres more emotional pressure, in runescape, theres no pressure, because nobody is expecting anything. Runescape has minigames and other activities in which you can get to know the other player better. You're forced to communicate with the other runescaper because you're always online with the chat on. Not saying you can't do the same thing in real life. This is what people do in real life when they want to get to know someone of the opposite sex, they ask if they want to go to the movies. Compare this to a runescaper having to deal with something with another runescape player before they ask to do anything. For example, a player may have to help another in the wilderness. It's different than actually a premeditated plan to go out on a date or to the movies. You can learn more about the other player this way. Would you rather have this type of relationship or a relationship in which the other person is just trying to impress you?

Usually when you meet somebody for the first time, you have no reason to lie. In real life, if you really like somebody of the opposite sex, you might lie to get their favor. What reason is there to lie to someone in runescape? You won't meet the person in real life anyway, they live far, in a different country. So why lie? Also, you won't be afraid to tell personal things about yourself unlike in real life. You're anonymous. No worries, you can tell everything about yourself! If you get rejected by another person online, you can always try again because you can just log off and get on the next day. Pretty easy huh? Compared to real life.

Finally, lets bring up the topic of shyness. For those in real life with social anxiety, it could really be easier for them to get a relationship in runescape! After all, they're anonymous, they don't need to worry about humiliation. Whose gonna watch you? They don't see you, you don't see them, that allows you to be more honest with the other person! For those too shy in real life, people will just see their outside. Runescape deemphasizes outside appearance. It's a lot easier to see the other player for what they are on the inside because of this. Real life, outside. Runescape, inside. I'm not saying that this is the case all the time. It's like, in real life, you start on the outside, then you get to the inside. Runescape can be the opposite, you get to know the inside, then the outside.

In real life, you could be rejected or relationships may end up in dust, but in runescape, it's possible that relationships may last a lot longer.


Some friendships or relationships aren't possible without runescape...

 

The relationships that wern't possible without runescape sound like pretty shitty relationships.

 

You're saying its ok to be in a relationship with a girl in runescape?

eeww prepared to get flamed

 

I'm not telling you to get into a relationship with a girl in runescape, just saying that runescape allows you to see a person for who they really are, and to get to know that person naturally. In real life, you see the outside, thats usually why relationships end quickly. In runescape a relationship may last longer because you aren't aiming to establish a relationship, it's all natural.

 

Why? Please explain. If you're going to say anything without valid reasons, then don't post on this thread. Thanks.

 

Hey babe, can i please bone you with my mith 2h? yep, its big and hard!

nty i has big black guy with drag 2h srry.

 

^That.

Never compare runescape to real life.

 

i Lol'd.

But it you can find the "one" on a video game i guess. My friends sister and her fiance met on WoW and have been engaged for 5 years. He lived in Alabama and moved all the way to Ontario to live with her ;] happy story

 

mmmm this topics gonna cause alot of conflict lol, i guess i feel more relaxed and more myself around people on runescape because i have nothing to be paranoid about, but then again after a few drinks im like that irl anyway so :laugh:

 

Holy fuck dude I gotta say you speak truth because my life changed with runescape. through this game I met this kid (3 years older) and we became partners in selling pins. soon we became close friends and forgot about runescape. Now he introduced me to so many people and drugs that i am 30 times the man I would be if I didn't get to know him. This guy pretty much changed my life, otherwise I'd still be talking with my petty peers and not have a fake id, never have gone to a strip club, never have gotten lots of drugs, or met all the people I got introduced to by him. all thanks to runescape!

 

In real life, you are limited to the friendships that you can make only in the area you live, but in runescape, you can communicate with others in many different countries. Many of my friends found out about friends they know whom have lived in the same state and met up with each other.

 

I met a guy on Rs who became one of my best friends. I've talked to him for 3 years and he has taught me many things. I still have yet to meet him.

 

You can be completely truthful and not feel that you have to lie to people you meet in real life, not just runescape. In runescape the most you can do with a friend or someone you are in a relationship with is type to each other. In real life there is so much more you can do with someone that runescape will never satisfy.

 

Of course, but runescape also presents a lot of possibilities for a better relationship. Everything is possible. Some things aren't possible in real life and some things aren't possible in runescape.

What if you don't have anybody in real life because you're in a situation where you can't get into a relationship with somebody in real life? What if you can't make friends in real life for a reason beyond your control? Runescape gives you the chance, you have an alternative to make friends and meet new people, and not just meet them to impress them, but just to meet them naturally.

 

Two things: Why would you make your sythe username the same as your rs username? Also, why would you link your sythe username to your rs username by posting the SAME thread on sythe forums and rs forums..?

 

I know some people that met on Runescape. They are now married in real life. lol

 

I see where you're coming from but I still wouldn't advise it to anyone. Sure, you can make friends on the internet. Happens all the time. I wouldn't advise anyone to date anyone online, nor would I advise anyone to meet up with Runescape friends that you've never met before (obvious reasons).

But I still think you explained yourself in a relatively logical manner, so kudos.

 

rs is like a drug it will make you not care what pll say cause there not realy there. dose that make sence cause im a little drunK.

 

hey baby
suck my big black sword

 

Not really, we always try to fit in with our peers, we have to do the things they do, in runescape, we know people from around the world, different age groups, I know a runescape friend who is a scientist, I know a runescape friend who is a home maker, I know a runescape friend who is a construction worker, I know a runescape friend who is a student, I know a runescape friend who is a programmer, I know a runescape friend who is a gamer. The list goes on, and not all of them are age 18. A lot of them are above 30. Does real life give you this flexibility? In runescape, since you have no incentive to lie to the other player in first place, you start communicating from the inside. Finally, what are these things? Are these things really good? Could these things cause problems, which could lead to a bad result?
