I feel dumb for making this post but I don’t know why this has been making me feel so bad lately. I started playing World of Warcraft in July, and I absolutely love it, but I’m still such a newb compared to my husband and his friends. We often all play together, and naturally I don’t do as good as them and it sometimes feels like they expect me to suddenly be an expert with years of experience. It doesn’t help that yesterday I overheard them talking about how I didn’t do good. I mean they do make an effort to help me and include me, but it still bothers me. It’s even more frustrating when I feel like I’m doing pretty decent only to find out I didn’t. I mean there have been a few times where I even did better than them, but they never pay attention to that and just chalk it up to luck. I feel like I’m pretty good for such a short time, but they always expect more. It makes me feel like the girl that can’t fit in with the guys :/ I wish they would stop assuming that I’m doing something wrong and realize that I just need practice with muscle memory, which can only be improved with time. I spent a lot of hours learning proper techniques and they still treat me like I don’t know what I’m doing sometimes. I don’t know why I keep getting so down about this and taking it so personally, when I know that they still like playing with me and often ask me to join.

Nothing missed.
They’ll tear apart from you. They need to get you away. Trying to keep you Busy. They… Ask they sometimes? Games like are followed by so many about to master it, not to slander like in Animals Crossing.
When thet happened to me, I had no opportunity, and stopped playing.
If you’re having fun and gradually improving, I think that’s the most important thing. What would suck is if you weren’t enjoying yourself or were stuck without getting better.
