Hello Basil, Some of you may remember my previous thread on my friend dilemma. Well, I have yet another problem with her o.o Well, lately, she�s become obsessed with getting married in-game. I asked her why and she said, �Because I feel lonely�. This is a game and all, but I think she�s taking it too seriously. She goes �husband hunting� in Henesys, and she�s like �Oh my gosh that guy over there is so cute�. She�s talking about pixels .___. She found this random person in Henesys and apparently they�re getting married within 24 hours of knowing each other. I asked her if she�s marrying for Apq and she said �No, I love him�. I respect people having online relationships for whatever reason, but knowing a person for less than 24 hours and marrying them sounds ridiculous to me. She spent $20 on buying �wedding clothes� and �planning her wedding guest list�. I don�t know what to say to her because I�m scared I might offend her. So Basil, what should I do? NOTE: She�s only 14. EDIT: No I do not know her irl, but I have known her for 2 years on and off maple.

Your in a tough situation. I think you guys should talk it out. Honestly, I don't think she will be offended. 24 hours is NO time at all. If i was her I would have waited at least a month of getting to know the guy. If shes lonely, she should start a Guild! Their a great way of getting to know people!

Well your feelings are never wrong, if she feels lonely and wants to associate it with a game it's not very healthy but she is only 14. Your only a friend it's not like you can have a intervention, I'd say ride it out. You could very well easily offend her by pushing what you feel is right and wrong on a 14 year old.

Tell her she's idiotic after she has put you on the guest list.

You can't explain "anything" and I quote "ANYTHING" to a 14 year old girl.

D/C hack the guy when they're about to get married! I lied don't do that. Just let her be. She'll see that it was a bad choice sooner or later. Or maybe it might just work out...

Imaginemist They think they're right about everything, and you're just "hating" or trying to ruin her dreams.
