1) Tell me a little about how the relationship developed in the game. How did your characters meet? When did you know you had romantic feelings for the other person? How did the two of you let each other know about those feelings? What was that moment like? 2) When and how did you two decide to meet in real life? What were the steps that led up to that? Tell me about that first meeting in real life and what that felt like and how that meeting unfolded. 3) Many people feel that online relationships are necessarily superficial and dangerous. Do you think the online game environment made it easier or harder for you to get to know the other person? Were there any surprises when you met them in real life for the first time? 4) How did that relationship compare with other relationships you've had offline? Do you think you would have had a relationship with this person had you met them in real life? Are the two of you still together?
