Love is in the air. Yes it’s almost February and even gamers can fall in love inside a game. Imagine the length of time you can spend with fellow gamers in Blizzards MMO cash cow, World of Warcraft. Apparently, a 16 year old WoW addict fell in love with a fellow 42 year old woman who is a WoW player also. They met in game and occasionally chatted with each other, and their chat sessions was so intense to the degree of “Sexually Explicit”.
Last year, on December 29, Andrew Kane asked his mother and father if they would drive him to a hotel to meet with Lauri Price and to spend the rest of his holidays with her. When the parents denied his request, Kane calmly returned to his room. Then, at 2 a.m. Kane’s parents heard the front door open. When they went to check on Andrew, he was gone.
According to the initial report from the Globe and Mail, Kane had left a note for his parents that read: “I don’t know how to explain it to you, but this will show you not only the commitment we have to each other, but also that your fears of her are ill found…Like I said, she offered to meet with you. I got in the way of that. What person who would do me harm would be willing to meet with you?” From Tomshardware.com

Price wasn’t so lucky, she was arrested for enticing a minor. WoW, it’s really addicting even in real life. WTF is this boy thinking, well at least he fell in love with a real person unlike the Japanese dude who married a video game character (you can read the article here)
