I met my first girlfriend that way, we'd go hunting for crabs in the wilderness by day and then sell our catch at the marketplace. It was hard being online at the same time but we made it work. We built fires and prayed in the evenings under the starry sky, and fell asleep in each others arms, until that fateful night when I came back from my fishing trip to find all her belongings in a single pile, surrounded by blood. I feared the worst, but kept hopeful and waited. My patience waning, I finally ventured out of the wilderness and towards the reset point, where I found her... outside of a cave garbed in dungeoneer equipment mumbling nonsensical words about grinding. :'-(

Hey, least you only caught crabs

¯_(ツ)_/¯

This was a much, much better story than Twilight

I would make money in UO sometimes by logging into a female character and "bowing" in front of people to make it look like my character was performing oral sex. You could also spam "bow" while the other player spammed "salute" while standing behind the first player to look like doggy style sex.

non-ethical monogamous situationship

So ... sexual slavery?

I'm having a hard time coming up with another situation that fits that description.

[–] havid_dume@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago (3 children)

It does say non-ethical instead of unethical, whatever that means.

Also doesn't clarify what part of the situationship is un/non-ethical, so maybe it's just about undisclosed political campaign contributions or smth

[–] abs_mess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Non-ethical as in, ethics doesn't apply? Like a situation-ship with 27 cubic feet of drywall.

[–] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Non-ethical could mean without ethics not in violation of ethics?

I guess that would mean the relationship has not or could not be defined by petty human rules of conduct. Like telling a supernova or a black hole to clean up it's mess.

[–] 1847953620@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

maybe the fact the situationship isn't clarified on purpose is what makes it non-ethical

[–] macrocarpa@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

It's a piss take of the ethical non-monogamy apps.

But if we're being a bit real - nonconsentual arranged marriages, 50 year age gaps, marriage for money, marriage for convenience etc etc would fit the bill

Prob like Ashley Madison or smth that’s focused on married people finding people to cheat with.

[–] 1847953620@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

"situationships" I think is the key operator. Where there's probably a power dynamic, one person is being led on/getting played, and the other person is the player.

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Doesn't sound very monogamous.

[–] June@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Ooh I read that wrong lol. I read it as unethical non monogamous 😅

[–] xor@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

all monogamous relationships are non-ethical

Damn, that‘s hot

Try Guild Wars 2 someday.

Never had the intention to date, but still met my wife there.

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

It's a great game for that as there's a big focus on cosmetics and casual soliazing. I played it on release and I remember people hanging out at the beach area next to the main city.

I meet girls the old way: never(I use Arch BTW).

Jesus, I was literally just thinking about runescape and this comes up on my feed. I didn't even say it out loud (I have grapheneos and hardened Linux machines anyways)

Old school RS has been having a bit of a revival in recent years

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

The 0 in your name made me think you were downvoted, and I started to get really worked up for about one or two seconds.

Log on to world 301, plop yourself in the GE, and sit and watch humanity at its worst. Truly more entertaining than Twitter could ever be.
