What's the best reason to date a World of Warcraft player?

If a girl finds herself dating a young World of Warcraft player, there's a strong chance she's got a few levels on him in the realm of love and sex. This will garner a ton of admiration and lots of in-game favors. Plus, she'll always have someone to quest with.

What has World of Warcraft taught you about dating?

A few polite words can go a long way. Also, people who spend a lot of time in front of the computer tend to have excellent imaginations — the brain is our most powerful sexual organ.

If you belong to the Alliance, and you date a member of the Horde, how do you keep the conflict contained to the game?

This kind of relationship is ill-advised. One will invariably attempt to convert the other, and while the two may try playing on one side, over time resentment can build to explosive pressure. They just do not mix.

My mom walked in on me and my girlfriend having sex on the living room couch. This was the first time she ever met my mom, and now she's too mortified to ever come back. How can I make this situation comfortable for everyone?

People fuck, and unless your mom is of the no-sex-before-marriage ilk, she's got to know that your sex life will not halt just because you're under her roof. Have an awkward laugh about it with mom, then appeal to this girl's sense of pride. Tell her that your parents will love her and that her many wonderful attributes will easily overshadow the incident.

I like watching porn during sex, but I've always been slow to introduce it in the bedroom because it might freak my date out. Should I be worrying about this so much, or should I go ahead and pop in a DVD?

Many girls like porn as much as guys do, but their tastes are a little different. For example, most girls I know don't get off on the scrotum close-up. Bring it up outside the bedroom, and if she's game, try finding a genre that's pleasing to you both. If she's indifferent, or worse, revolted, she might need some gentle coaxing via the soft-core variety.

There are tons of crazy photos of my girlfriend on Facebook of her from her college days, and it makes me really uncomfortable to see all those pictures out there. It sounds possessive, but I don't want them on the internet anymore. How do I deal with this?

Deal with this by getting over yourself! Her past is not yours and she is free to air as little or as much of it as she likes. Instead of obsessing over her crazy life before she met you, focus on making new memories together.

My girlfriend can't afford her apartment anymore and has to move back in with her parents. The distance could seriously harm our relationship. Asking her to move in makes sense financially, but I'm afraid it's too early. What do I do?

You have to decide which course of action is least likely to harm your relationship. Sometimes, a temporary absence can strengthen your commitment to one another. I don't think that the decision to live together should ever be done for financial reasons, but if you're fantasizing about a life with this girl, than you may just have to jump sooner than you thought.
