    Your not missing out on much, the best way is to make friends in the game and go from there.

    It would never be ideal to marry (In-game) a friend that you know in reality, unfortunately common sense is rare these days.

    Hang in there. Took me 3 tries to find my perfect partner, we have been together for 11 months and couldn't be happier. The first 2 EBs fell apart within 6 months. Don't give up, your perfect match is out there somewhere.

    Pretty much the best advice you can give. I've met some amazing people through this thread, it just takes time.

    I dunno. I've been looking for over 6-7 months now and have come up empty. I had a few creepy responses, but that's about it. Most people just want instant gratification and some form of cyber sex (they call it erp to make themselves feel better and sound less taboo) or actually meet up for real sex. I find very few people being content on actually just being a friend, let alone one who would EB and not immediately think that is a free pass inside your pants, pixel or otherwise.

    I mean if it ever became more than a friendship after a good while of being with someone, I'm ok with that. But that's not specifically what I'm looking for. Unfortunately that seems to be what 99% of the people here ARE looking for so if you're not willing to call them your "significant other" the moment you meet them, they move on to find someone who will. And that is why relationships don't last.

    Funny enough I did find an EB partner for a short bit, but it was someone I happened to meet in game (and not through here). It didn't last long though. I got ditched and there was too much drama over literally nothing.

    To be honest, I've completely given up. I don't know how hard you thought it would be, but I've pretty much deemed it impossible.

I've had some people come onto me pretty strongly on Louisoix for the ceremony, though in all honesty, I've been through it once and it failed because of me, I'm not 100% convinced I wanna do it again. But if I did, I'd be in the same boat as you. I'd want it to be friendship only (though I would want to run content with them), since I don't want an IRL relationship with anyone currently (trying to focus on my mental health and stuff). I say weight up how much you want to marry vs the stress of what it's causing (if you haven't already), and use that to come to a decision. If you do want to marry though, don't give up! Perhaps your post keeps getting lost in the midst of the other posts. But if you keep trying, you'll eventually find someone.

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.

    I actually can't blame you at all, in fact I pretty much did the same. The fact is if you are unwilling to transfer you just shrunk your pool of potential candidates by a ridiculous amount and the pool is already small to begin with, clearly, considering you pretty much see the same people here. Most of the people that return do so either because they dealt with some drama (like you and I) or enjoy drama (serial daters, people just trying to get others to pay for their weddings, etc. or a few dating police that feel like they got screwed over and now they want to tell everyone else how people should fit into a box and if they don't then clearly they are cheaters, creepers, etc.)

    In my experience meeting people in your own server just by natural normal means, hanging out, doing stuff...is the best way.

    Oh and one last piece of advice. A simple "Hello" goes a very long way toward helping you to your goal. Hoping someone is just going to notice you isn't the answer.
