I think she was trying to be playful.... and let's face it. when a women is trying to be playful and wants you to come to bed with her it's hardly something to get upset about..... 
Fair enough.
I'd still have to chop her up and feed her to the pigs afterwards though, for touching my ****! (My wife, not yours!) I'm nice like that!

First of all, i know many of the eve community has never heard of these..."girlfriends"..., but yes they do exist and many do not like their boyfriends playing eve lol, or at least how, why, or what they do because of eve, or sometimes the girl is just plain stupid.
Ive heard of some nasty stories but lets hear yours 
My wife is generally very EVE tolerant. Last night, however, I lost an Omen. I just just picked up a can from a guy and we were going to fight when she walked in the room and started pestering me, pressing random keys and trying to close the lid on the laptop because she wanted to go to bed and she wanted me to come with her.
By the time I had it explained to her that it REALLY wasn't a good time to be pressing random keys and I REALLY needed 2 more minutes, I was in 1/2 armor and I still hadn't even targeted the guy.....
oh well.
Look on the bright side- at least she didn't target and shoot a Concord BS while you were autopiloting your maxed out faction fit Vindicator in high sec... it's a bad thing when GFs know too much about Eve...

I'm feeling pretty lucky after reading some of this. My gf is pretty damn cool about my online addiction - she knew I was a geek coming into the relationship. She does poke fun of me sometimes when we are doing some random thing or another and all of a sudden I'm like "^@#$! Skill finished half an hour ago!" and I race into the living room to log on  |

I was playing EnB when I got a new girlfriend, she got an account (she claims so we could spend time online together). EnB was shutdown and we moved to EVE. In 2005 we came to FanFest and I proposed on stage.
We came back to Fanfest in 2006.
I got a job with CCP.
We got married earlier this year.
We both still play EVE regularly.
She still insists that if I am concentrating on EVE she has to dance naked behind me so that I catch the reflection in the monitor to get my attention (not that I complain about this methodology).

So you're kinda into Eve, in a "take it or leave it" way then?

EVE has saved my relationship numerous times. Whenever she thinks I'm being unfaithful, I point out that having another woman on the go would seriously compromise my EVE playing time.
Luckily she's pretty cool about my computer gaming habit, mainly because we don't fight over what to watch on TV (she watches some real **** programs).

My girl friend once looked at my credit card statements and saw the repeated "EVE Online" charge.
She then asked me if I was paying for an internet p*rn subscription.
hope you said yes.. or else you could be in trouble if you said you play a MMO :/

I find the pace of Eve (unless in the middle of pvp) allows you to divert your attention very easily compared to other MMOs. Compared to having to spend 6 hours with headphones on glued to your machine (except for toilet breaks) running a Molten Core raid in WoW, Eve is a very partner-friendly game.
My GF has even said the same: that she doesn't mind me playing Eve because if she needs to talk to me about something, most of the time I can easily stop what I'm doing and pay attention to her when needed.

My ex GF (it's ex cos were married now  ) hated the fact that I couldn't leave EVE that second she wanted me to do something.
For her EVE was just virtual game, no matter of fact that EVE interaction involves other real persons.
And I've tried several times to explain that if I have agreement with other players to do some gang PvP, that I cant just leave them, especially if I have scout or EW role in gang.
After years, she finally realized, and now she asks:
"How fast can you dock or SS?"

I was out pvping with tri shortly after I joined and the gang was roaming through MM space. My girlfriend was nagging me the whole time to get off the computer and I kept telling her 'in a minute, in a minute'.... The gang was waiting on a gate (and i was waiting for a nice system in which to log off) a ship jumps through and our dictor throws up a bubble and at the same time my girfriend storms in and unplugs the computer.
The result : 1 unpiloted cerberus sitting on a gate at 0. Three happy morsus mihi pilots: http://tri.exanimo.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=67286

It's not because she called you Mindy, is it?
You are never going to get away from that now

My gf says she only will play EVE when she can watch his character (she plays lineage2), so you better release the walking on stations stuff soon ;)

My girlfriend refers to EVE as "my other woman", and in fact doesn't mind tha much when I play. Just as long as I don't say "I'll be there just after this mission/PVP op"

I met a girl once online, she was totally awesome so we got together and became friends.
One day I went to her place and brought my laptop and introduced a cool spaceship game called "EVE-Online" to her. She thought it was silly (she was really into Civilization and RTS games and what-not) so I put it away.
The next time I went over I told her about it some more. I got her hooked her up with a trial account and spent a couple hours making her character; it took a couple hours because the server timed out a lot during character creation.
Finally one day, something about it clicked with her. She really enjoyed the people interaction, and quickly moved up in our corporation to director and recruitment manager. She was doing a great job with the game. :)
I had to leave EVE for a couple weeks about 3 months after she started playing. I told her to take over the corp for me while I was gone. She did a great job. When I got back she wanted to become CEO of the corporation (I was CEO, and had goals and visions I wanted played out). We had a fight about it, and among some real life drama as well, it wound up with her leaving the corp, and all the active members following her to not just join some other corporation, but a corporation inside the alliance we were in.
I was ticked. Later, I declared war on her alt corp (she now has some 4+ alt accounts) just to blow some steam. I finally got it out of my system and we talk occasionally and stuff, but yeah. It was more the real life stuff that got her so ****ed off, but her and I are both leaders, so there was a definite clash there.
She's got some corp now that has been bouncing around from alliance to alliance and I keep an eye on them, just to see how she's doing from time to time. You never know.. perhaps one day I'll form an alliance with her. We're still friends, but I have come to terms long ago that we're not getting back together.

Eve is a nice name, too bad it has religion connotations.
Oh man, it is actually your perception that defines reality. Eve or Eva at it's roots is a very nice name.
Just cause some people named the first woman (ever) that was created out of a mans rib and then doomed mankind ?

Eve wasn't the first woman ever. There was one before her, but she got kicked out of the Garden of Eden for not submitting to Adam.

ok..my post really dosent belong in here since its "girlfrieds" you are talking about..but anyway...
my bouyfriend was the one that got me to start playing eve,have been playing for about 3 years now or something and still love it...a bit TO much apparently for my boyfriends liking;)
guess the worst thing he have done so far in rage over me playing to much and not giving him enough attention is starting to delete our accounts;)
quite a change from the days were i spendt hours dressing up really wanting some attention just to get furius when i was told "not today honey...i have to talk to someone on eve"

I get alot of the same flak from my live-in GF, but its nothing like what I have seen happen to 2 of my ex-CEO's.
Both had a wife/girlfriend that played Eve. The first one had to give his wife all the good stuff to keep her interested, then she never would use it. Eventually the corp got ticked off that she was skimming the best stuff and the corp fell apart.
The second cheated on his wife with a girlfriend who also played Eve. Needless to say the GF got ****ed when he would not leave the wife. Net result was the GF deleting accounts and stealing corp assets and getting chars banned on purpose.
So I learned never to stay in a corp where there is any kind of husband/wife or BF/GF relationship going on. They're gonna lay into each other someday and you'll probably be an innocent bystander when the bullets start flying.
