Okay, our next story. We are back on D&D Horror Stories. My player fell in love with me, the DM, but I'm married and one of the players is my husband. No, dude.
Right. Oh, God, what a nightmare. Angela and Amanda were fighting tooth and nail for Carol. I'm typing this on mobile, so apologies for the formatting. I've been playing D&D with my husband for five years, and this is my first campaign DMing. We are playing with his friend group, who are Pat, Mary, and Dylan. Not real names.
We have been playing for the last three months, and everything has been going great so far. The party works well together, and there is really no issue except anger. Dylan is playing a half-orc barbarian who fell in love with a half-elf named Shelia, and this has been a progressing storyline.
For reference, he is not the only one who is romancing an NPC, and the rest of the party has not professed their love over text to me. After the session last night, the group went home and Dylan sent me a bunch of texts saying that he had noticed tension between us and that we can't deny it and he is open to taking the next steps.
I am horrified, of course, and inform my husband immediately because this is his friend. My husband texts Dylan for a bit, then calls and berates him for his actions. Dylan then says that my husband is standing in the way of our love and my husband hangs up and blocks him on both of our phones. We discussed next steps and decided to cancel D&D for the time being because I am freaked out.
The rest of the group are understanding, but man, this has been a weird Christmas.
They just die-hearted that where they snuck Christmas at the end. And by the way, prom is tomorrow. Yeah, wow. It was the best summer ever. This was posted on Christmas of last year. Oh, my goodness.
Or Christmas. Yeah, isn't it funny how so many of these D&D horror stories are just people like deeply misreading the room?
I seriously think it's all about reading energy and understanding where people are at and knowing when to go to people and when to let them wait, just in terms of being entertained, how much someone's talking. But like, Yeah, this is the DM that the person fell in love with, essentially?
Yes, because she's DMing, and this friend of theirs is playing, and he's romancing an NPC, so she's playing the NPC that he's romancing, and so clearly they probably had some sequences together where they're professing their love within the game. I've definitely heard of this happening before, and it is really stupid. It's...
It's just like, if you're showing up to play a game of trouble, no one's about to fall in love with the person who presses the bubble the most. You know what I mean? It's people just... You never know. You're on Smosh Games. Yeah, so it's just when people give the DM... I think it's something to do with mysticizing it or something like that.
When somebody's just pretending to be this NPC, you're like, wow, they're infusing magic into this. This is all personal to them. I'm gonna make it personal to me. Now we have a personal connection that's unseen by all the others, because it's just our secret private little moment. But you're forgetting that there are five other people in the room. I've got my dice and I'm ready to attack.
You know?
Yeah, here we go. I'm ready to get these goblins. Here we go. And you got a lady on a Zoom call just waiting to hop in.
Yeah. I love how they felt like they had to include the fact that they canceled D&D the next episode. As if that were like, we did it. Unfortunately, we had to.
I'd be like, I'm never playing this again. Yeah, he lost his friend? Oh my god, yeah.
I'm also insanely bold to not only text her and then be like, what are our next steps? What are next steps? Texting your crush, next steps? And then the husband calls you, he's like, you're standing in the way of us. It's like, whoa, man, okay. Comments, I am so sorry this happened.
It seems that Dylan is not mature enough to separate what is being simulated in the RPG with real life, which is troubling to say the least. I hope you can continue DMing, but it seems that Dylan needs to leave the game under normal conditions. I think he maybe needs to leave.
Under normal conditions, I'd suggest talking to the player and working something out, but I think this is a case where you should probably skip that step. Thanks, Reddit. Dylan seems divorced from reality. In any case, good luck. I know this is a very strange situation. That's not the divorce Dylan wants. It is insane that Dylan...
this is also like, even if he had no other intentions, but if you are in a D&D group where it's like, the DM is married to someone else at the table, and you're doing a romance sequence with that person, it's like, this has gotta be at least a little silly. Like, at least make it a silly romance.
