My best friend in SL decided that he wanted to write a blog on relationships ... so here it is ... it's pretty good :)
There you sit, in your real life living room, talking to your spouse. He/she is bored and so you quickly invite them to join SL. They readily agree, and your SL life changes forever.
You even go so far, as to partner them in SL. Then things can get really interesting. Although, having said that, some go their separate ways also. I can't say which is the preferred method, because numerous things can happen in both instances.
He/she can meet some sexy avi and fall in love all over again. Or they can be your spouse and say no more than you did in the livingroom before they joined. Are they holding some guy/gal on the dance floor whispering sweet words in their ear or are they holding you in their arms, talking about the ceiling needing painting, the cats or fixing a car window?
Romance, could be a good thing. I'm not sure if a real life marriage can be rekindled in SL. Anything important, is worth a shot. Of course, it would be more rewarding, to restart the flame in real life.
As for the sex ... I'm positive its better in real life but here could be a plan maker for real life nights. At least, you could hear the moaning and groaning real time, instead of through a headset.
Now, give this some thought ... do you really want your real life spouse with you in SL? I think those that do, might be feeling a lil guilt about having it all and wants to include them and when they do, well they feel violated of their private life in SL. Those that don't, well they're usually have one helluva life or dealing with the damn drama, that comes with SL.
Take some time, consider the pros and cons !!
Thank you Rafe ... you are the best.
