I've always thought about RP romance, but I always make my characters too old, like my last guy was 83 years old, and everyone elses characters were like 20-30, it just doesn't ever work out lol, well... except for hookers hahahaha XD!
Yeah in my last guild we had some people RP a marriage, and then they split up for some random RP drama (it was really good RP actually) and then every time they would see each other they would squabble in RP; however, after a period of time they started to get really pissed at each other IRL and got a little too involved in their characters, it screwed up their friendship and destroyed our group.
On the other hand, we had another RP marriage between the guild leader and a longterm member and it actually played into everyone's story and it worked out great, really enjoyable.
I don't think RP relationships are always bad, I think it's like 50/50, if people want to get into it I don't mind, just as long as they don't get too involved and let it ruin their friendships IRL, because that messes up everyone's fun
