Thanks Darkness, my current partner, who I have known for over 3 years, been together for one, I met through online gaming.

To some of you this will no doubt prove your point, given his background and history.
However for us it has worked out well.

I have plenty of online gaming friends who have their fair share of issues but are all good people at the end of the day.
Serious gamers have shared c'mon interest and it has nothing to do with getting hooked up.
You can tell those idiots a mile away.
This isn't online dating, no one who is seriously gaming goes there with the intention of getting into a relationship.
It can happen. Not often but it can.
And sometimes it fizzles out just as gradually as it started.

So I am not worried in the same way I would be if it was someone from a dating site.
However,no one should be paying emotional pressure to anyone online. It's not healthy, it's unreasonable and she can't possibly adhere.
His anxiety and neediness handpicked almost as soon as they expressed an mutual desire to work this out, and that fore is a red flag.
But without knowing his behaviour I can't advise any further,assuming Art would even want me too.

All the best Art, take care hun.
