Up until a few months ago I was totally on my own when it came to games. I don't like the online games like WoW or EverQrack, etc. Sometimes I have my game in the background and chat via IM with a few friends. But now I have a wonderful man in my life. Our computers are set up in the same room so he does his thing (Myst) and I do mine (VV,AoE,CIV,SimCity etc.). Works out very well for us.
