:D Yes I have a partner! Paulie Femto is my SL partner and it has moved into the "real" world too! We live together in SL and RL and we are very happy.

Taking a partner in my profile in SL was a very serious decision for me. Prior to meeting and falling in love with paulie, I had been having a very nice time with more than one "friend" in SL (although I've been told by the gossips that I was being talked about behind my back [pfft to that !] when I was playing the field :) LOL... :) so for whoever was talking about the open minded world we've created here in SL... ummm that may not be as open as we might hope :( maybe someday. But now I have one partner, and only one in SL.

He is the most wonderful, thoughtful and amazing friend, lover and soulmate I could ever have hoped to find!! And he's not to bad in SL either! LOL

;) soooo many sweet stories here, hehehe so here's mine, last february while sciving off work, I was on SL and I met Madison Gardner, she'd come over to complain about the mountain that had sprung up in front of her view overnight. We chatted became great friends and eventualy partners, I went to visit Madison a few months ago in august, and we had a hoot, and now (lucky me) She's coming over to visit for the christmas holidays, what better gift could a person ask for. :D

Madison you have my heart.

Az :p

:D
azreal and i have had a very unexpected, wounderful loving relationship here in sl. it has taught me that when one door closes another one opens even wider. none of us know what to expect in life, and if we stop writing the script of our lives and just sit back and watch what happens we will be not be disapointed when it does not turn out the way we planned it to...but turns into something even better. When i am with you my love, i feel like i am in a dream.
to have second life and real life combine with love is a dream come true. sl has filled my heart with the joy of my azreal, as well as the wounderful friends i have made here in sl.

azreal i love you with all my heart and soul :D

:p madison

Deal!

But I think we should agree not to have children, for the sake of the world.

Hi,

I have been in SL for two weeks now. I have had a cyber relationship in a previous game but that did not carry over into SL. I think my story is wonderful so I saw this thread and thought I would post it here. I am kind of shy so please bear with me and don't laugh.... too loud.

I am a lesbian and a friend of mine that came to the game told me there was a ladies only dance at some club. I had been hanging out at the Gravity Space Station and he really urged me to go. I really didn't know if I wanted to since I was very unsure about all this and was seriously worried about someone expecting me to Cyber when I really didn't know them. But Zach talked me into going. I showed up a little early and a few people were starting to get there. I looked at a few profiles and all. Funny how one girl used a porn star as her RL image.... lol

I was about to give up and leave when I came across a profile that caught my attention. It was a small thing that got it. In her First Life section there was one word, Nonya. I tried to overcome my shyness and send her a tell on three different times when on the third time I get an IM. It was her! I about spilled coke all over the place tyring to get the mouse to work right. I will never forget what her IM was. "So, do you think two shy people could hold a conversation?" Well, we chatted and when it was time for me to get some sleep for work the next day she exchanged cards with me. I really didn't know what to think but I did know that I liked her.

The next day (yes, I play almost every night lol) I loged in and was tryingto send her an IM but not knowing what to do when I got another one from her. Just simply "Hi!" We went to a Jazz Concert and it was wonderful. Afterwards we talked. Over the next few days we just talked. I mean HOURS of talking. Marathon chatting. I have never met someone I could open up to like this online.

On Christmas day I asked her to be my partner and she accepted. It is wonderful. I know I sound like a little school girl but that is exactaly what I feel like. We exchanged rings last night and enjoyed her one year Birth Day in SL. In my past relationship I didn't feel like this. This is much different. It has made me stop refering to SL as a game and refering to it as a program. I do not consider this that we have a game and I will not make it seem smaller by calling it one.

I know, you are all thinking "OOOOOH! One week!" but it is more than just time. She has improved the quality of my life in SL and in RL. I don't think things in SL would be as much fun as they are without her. I am sure that partnering is not right for some and doing it for business is... well that is up to the person I guess.

I would like to say that "I love you my little bird! Without you I would be lost. Thank you for finding me. You are the best Christmas present Santa gave this year!!!'

Gia!

SL Partners
12-30-2004 10:13
Speaking from someone who very recently got sl married, and partnered I had alot of reservations...seeing so many sl relationships not work and realizing that even a virtual partnership requires love, care and mantainance. I am very real(very me, rl) in sl, and I do have a rl, however the man I am partnered with in sl I doubt I will ever meet in real life. We live a world away,me in the US and him in the Netherlands but the caring and sharing we have is quite real. The connection I feel for him is real, the confort,the caring, the concern, the kinship, the fun and yes sometimes the pain.
I would not trade Aynen or what we have for the world and if we ever part I will value the time and the love we shared.
He and his constant love, respect, trust, the ability to share risking, and mutual self esteem have meant so very much to me.

Yep, I have an SL partner. Ariel Roentgen :). And we've been friends through a couple of mmorpgs and in years longer than most of my rl friends :). I'm not interested in online dating, even in a roll playing sense so in part it's sort of a statement that I'm not available. that's only a little part though. In TSO we actually built a chappel and had a ceremony and got married, but since then Ariel got married irl and sl is just a little too real to do that in good taste, at least to me. Even so it is sort of a pledge I guess. I've never really defined our relationship in words. We just get along better than anybody has a right to :). hehe, that probably has something to do with Ariel being extremely tolerant ;), but it seems to work :).


What he said :) hehe
And you did a better job defining it then me btw ;)

Yes I have a partner <3Raiden Karuna<3and funny enough, we both came from another VW, where we knew one another, and actually dint figure it out until we had been dating a few weeks. Now nearly 4 months later, I couldnt be happier. Hey how often do you meet the love of your life at a tele-hub, hm?And as for the debate as to if your married in RL, it is cheating if your with someone in SL. Well quite frankly this is my opinion, if your marriage in RL is so wonderful why are you in SL to begin with? If the marriage is sour, I would not consider it cheating however if your happily married, I think you could be spending time with your RL spouse, rather than a virtual one :)

Just my 2 cents,

Hugs,
Yas

Gia,

Aw! What a lovely story! :)



It just gets better as each day goes on. I could not ask for a better partner. We are both, at times, afraid that we will push the relationship too far for the other one to be able to deal with. We have been so wrong. I can't tell you how she has changed me in SL and in RL. She is so kind and caring with me. We have exchanged rings and I so look forward to seeing where this leads.

I feel so sorry for the people that think their Cyber Relationship is only for entertainment or that the only thing you can do in a relationship like this is to Cyber. They are missing out on so much!

Robin, I love you! You are my Goddess. I only hope I can be as good to you as you are for me.

Love Struck!

Partnerless here!

My having a "partner" would make my husband sad I think. :p
Besides that, I really just wouldn't have time to commit to being anyone's partner. I'm kind of socially independent and very often busy doing something specific.

Unless my husband happens to start up being an SL nut, I'll probably just stick to my friendships. :D


Ah Sezmra, I could not be more in synch with you! My husband would not like it one bit--in fact, he specifically asked me NOT to have a bf online!

Single in SL.

Used to have a partner tho..we didn't do the hanky panky tho.
That's why he decided to secretly click balls with women he picked up..till i found out of course. (and i left him in style without making any drama scene)



So today i'm single and having fun on my own like i did when i first logged on SL.
Just go out , dance , have fun , meeting new people, chatting with friends , model for my sisters clothing.

And that's kinda it.
:D


You're better off on your own , aspecialy when you want to stay 'PG'.
Most men expect from you to click balls...if that doesn't happen...then it'll end like my in-game relationship ended.
