I know a few have posted about trouble with their bf or husband playing long hours on internet games, even rushing out of their lovemaking to go play internet games. This article explains how some people have their minds altered by the instant gratification of internet activities.

I did notice that if my wife and I get into an argument or something - we end up going on the internet for a "soothing" period.

I have to say too that in decades to come, there will be actual marriages online where two people never meet. It may not be supported by law - but something that will occur. Seems to occur to some degree in the Second Life game.
