my wife left me, but at least i have oldschool runescape

sup fam. my wife left me for another guy back in june 2024. since the separation, i've been having trouble talking to others about this and coming to terms with my situation. i've also sunk myself back into osrs - something i gave up when i got married back in 2021.

anyway, my therapist has been helping me work up the courage to let this out into the world in whatever ways i can, and since i am a total antisocial nerd who relies on runescape and pot to function, i figured i'd throw this into the sub and let the universe take the wheel.

im currently afk woodcutting redwoods (lvl 93) and will continue until i get bored of afking. then i'll go back to slayer and do my demonic gorilla task (pretend they are all my ex wife) to get 95 slayer, and then go for the kourend elite diary. just need to do my first chambers on top of the hydra kill. then i want to go for 90 agility and theiving (both at 82) which is gonna suck. but not as much as being cheated on.

anyway, im just rambling now, but the point is, this game and this community have been a key factor in my healing, and i thank you all for the good times, good laughs, and general sense of belonging to something way bigger than the bubble i otherwise live in. much love, and good luck on all your grinds.


edit: thank you all. posting this is sheer proof at the love and genuine caring of the people who enjoy runescape. i take all your comments and suggestions to heart, as understanding multiple perspectives will allow me to make better life decisions. thanks for taking the time to respond to me with encouragement, advice, and your own personal stories. it means more than you know. 2007scape, hope you never change. <3
