I played EQ for about a year's time my final year in college. I let it take up way too much of my time, but I did get out enough to keep my girlfriend who is now my wife. Thing was, I would skip classes after staying up until 4am playing eq, think about eq during classes, etc. It was kind of messed up. I would go out on the weekends, but weeknights were nothing but eq. its amazing that I pulled a 4.0 somehow my senior year... how I have no idea.
Once I graduated and got a real job my ability to play ceased quite a bit, plus I was living in the same place as my girlfriend who didn't play so I pretty much lost the ability to play much.
I gave it up soon thereafter. I tried to get her to play a couple times but she would never get into it quite like I did. I brought up EQ2 and tried to get her to play that with me so I could try it out and she got really upset that I was going to get addicted again, so I dropped the issue. Sucks for me because I really want to be able to play but I realize how this game took way too much time away from life and my wife and decided that it wasn't worth it.
