Well, I met someone on here.... But, lets just say they were not the right peron.... BUT I did meet this guy through them, so it all worked out ^^

Unlike you, not everyone views marriage in a game as a serious thing... I've married friends in games just for the bonus it provides. Heck, I'm gonna marry someone probably random on FFXIV because I want the mount and the outfits.It's not really off topic, though. It is in regards to your post. :P
Yeah, I think it's a little more serious than "Just an RP thing". If I'm spending a lot of time with someone in game like that, chances are I'm trying to engender a relationship with that person. :P If I'm going to shell out $20 for something, it's not just going to be for "A good laugh and traded smiles". $20 is at LEAST half of a first date, after all! If I'm really spending the kind of time with someone to where I feel like marriage in the game is worth it, chances are I'm getting to know this person on a rather intimate level in real life, as well. Otherwise why bother? XD
Personally I'm kind of disappointed there isn't an option to have a wedding ceremony at a seedy little chapel in Ul'Dah after going on a bender at the Gold Saucer- complete with your character waking up the next morning with a terrible hangover, a ring on their finger that they don't recognize, and a totally empty wallet.
It can be like queuing solo in the DF. Only with marriage instead of a trial.
"But Darius, Marriage IS a Trial"
Right you are.

Just want to say that I'm getting married next weekend! Didn't meet him on this thread.
this thread is mostly for fun. I doubt most expect to get a message in game after posting the marriage thing in here.
I know I'm only here to get a few cheap laughs.
Because cheap laughs are the only kind I can afford.
I see this as more of a 'meet-a-friend.- thing. You sure are blowing this out the water lol.Isn't it a little premature to go jumping into marriage before, I dunno... Making sure you don't hate the other person, or something?
I'm looking for someone as much as the next lonely nerd but... I certainly wouldn't want to dive into a marriage, even a fake in-game marriage, with some chick that I've only met for like, six minutes. Or even worse it ends up being a dude... *shudder* (On that note I always assume female characters are played by men. This keeps me from hitting on them, which women tend to appreciate, and I appreciate when I don't hit on dudes!)
But who knows! You marry a person in-game, get real close and personal and then you made have a nice blossoming friendship or more outside of it all.
Who cares? It's for fun, it's up for those peoples to decide how things pan out.
@Dekal: I've been on, idk about you, I wish we could send off-line friend things or mail.

For me, eternal bond in game is mostly to get the items and what s better that with a friend or a leveling partner. It is rare to see a real bond between players (of course I'm not saying it can't happen, but it's a slim possibility)
