... don't let this be anybody I know. Although, I guess the divorce isn't quite as big a deal. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,576209,00.html Man Marries Virtual Girlfriend ... With Public Reception Sunday, November 22, 2009 A man who calls himself SAL9000 has married his virtual girlfriend with a public reception, MyFoxDFW.com reported. The man reportedly fell in love with a virtual girl named Nene Anegasaki and plans to hold a public wedding reception in Tokyo. Since the girl doesn't really exist, SAL9000 reportedly took his Nintendo DS to Guam for a legal ceremony and honeymoon, and will livecast the upcoming wedding reception online, MyFoxDFW.com reported. SAL9000 met his "bride" on the video game Love Plus, which requires players to take out the virtual girl on dates, buy her gifts and make their girlfriends happy like they would in real life. The player can increase their abilities by studying, working out and solving problems of their virtual girlfriend, but if they fail to make their girlfriend happy, the game will restart after 100 days.
hehehehehe..he should try second life..the dating is a lot easier with real life people behind the avatar. Ive fell in love with somone Ive met in a video game ( Second Life) ..with some skype..msn..yahoo on the side. Going to New Zealand to see her...see from there where it goes. With Marriage as our outlook in the future.
If I put little plastic eyes and a mini-wig on my hand, can I call her my virtual girlfriend? And then maybe marry her someday?! This is outstanding news!
On the bright side. This guy presumably won't be procreating and spreading his obviously defective genes to anyone else. As fucked up as it is I'm glad he won't be contributing to societies downfall anymore.
THANK YOU!! Somehow I missed the bright side in all of this. Lets hope for a long and completely dedicated relationship. Now I gotta figure out how to ship him a lifetime supply of batteries for his DS.
