Fifteen years ago I was in a situation where I worked all day and took care of an ill relative all evening and night. I could not go out. I had no social life. Online roleplaying allowed me to relax and, at least in my mind, get away from my responsibilities. I had a great time and enjoyed it very much. Times change. The relative passed away. I was able to make new friends, go to munches, attend events. Roleplaying loses it's luster when you have the real thing available. At the moment I can't imagine doing it again, however, I'll never say never. I have no idea what the future holds for me. By the way, had a friend who gave me a nickname at that time, IHOP. Stands for Internet, you take a guess, peppermint. Ah, to be young again and in my early 50s. Sure was fun at the time.
