I am playing Final Fantasy 14 and the game has a huge modding, clubbing and ERP community inside of the regular one.
Recently a friend of mine increased the amount of NSFW pictures she takes of her character and even takes them with some IRL friends of hers.

I have been wondering all this time... how is it to ERP with a normal friend of yours inside a game and then casually meeting them IRL. Is it awkward? Doesn't that lead to curiosity of how it might feel to fuck IRL?

Anyone ever had a similar experience?

Not ERP, but a while back I was in a group play-by-post RP thing for a few years that could get pretty raunchy. It turned out one of the guys was from my hometown and was part of my mom's old gaming group, and we ended up hanging out a couple times.

It wasn't too weird, but it definitely would have been more awkward if any of our characters had fucked in the story.

When I was in school and got into anime, one girl caught wind of that and started to be rather insistent on spending time with me. It was enjoyable and fun, so we just chatted about our favourite shows, shit like that. I knew her well enough by the time she proposed we should write roleplay together (not yet ERP) and it became my favourite pastime, especially with her.

After a while, she even wanted to write about "naughty stuff". It was cringy shit teenagers came up with, but our characters had explicit scenes with each other. It was another way to have a creative outlet together.

It really wasn't weird and we weren't ashamed of it. We actually ended up being more than friends for most of high school and fucked like animals. Female anime fans are nasty in bed and she had big old milkers in the last couple years of school.

I think I would be in the same boat as her. Trying things out, having it lead to ERP and then wanting to know what fucking IRL is like.

I myself had a good friend in ffxiv. I didn't know him personally, though. We just talked almost daily, posted screenshots we took of our characters... but I started sharing nudes of my character at a beach bar, after seeing a nude of his character pop up in a discord server. His cock aiming at the cam.
So I sent a pic of mine leaning forward naked on a barstool, showing her asshole to the cam.

Later messaged him when he was online, that I was sitting by the bar again.

We ended up ERPing that his character plunged his cock into my ass and started fucking her.

We are still good friends, but he is pretty horny for me now.

I used to ERP with a woman in an MMO years ago. I don't want to reveal too much information publicly, but I found out we lived in the same area, and she drove out to hook up with me. I probably should have been safer about it, but she let me cum inside her, so we had fun. I found out later that she had a boyfriend, who she ended up leaving, and she moved away. We lost touch years ago sadly, but I wish her well.

That has got to be a one in a million chance to find someone who you RPed with that you knew/were close to, probably a billion. But wow, I too wish I had that kind of experience if I had personally met a girl whom I've RPed with and took it to that stage. That's got to be some high IQ relationship stuff right there.

i would flirt with my raid leader in between pulls/down time. we met up at a con and fucked like crazy. thats the closest thing for me

Met a married woman in WoW. We hit it off while she was mid-divorce. Her husband, her, and myself went to a con together, and we had a lot of fun sneaking around while he was doing other things. I'm not sure if he ever knew I fucked his wife a bunch that weekend, but who knows? Maybe he did and he was super into it.

Once I tried to do ERP with my well-known friend through VKontakte when I was 14. Since I didn't want to uncover my identity, I hid myself under the mask of fake account - in my opinion it was just a simple prank.

I went straight into Undertale roleplay (where both of us were chilin) as an AU version of Chara and then my friend (he was a horny dude) asked me for erp.

My neurons activated even before I read the entire sentence. I had a smug grin on my face at that very moment. But then, I realized that this was the worst mistake of my life.

He asked if I was into vore, macro, copro, and other unholy things. Honestly, I didn't know any of these things, until he asked me to search them. I was so ashamed that I even uncovered myself to my friend, and was embarassed when my parents found out about what I've been searching in whe worldwide web.

We weren't talking to each other for, like, a week. But then we were friends again, like nothing happened.

English is not my native language, if anybody wonders.

Nothing gets my girlfriend wetter than some ERP together beforehand. I'm also active on FFXIV in that scene and have a number of friends IRL who I've written cooperative smut with. Overall? Lots of fun, and not hard to separate fantasy/reality when necessary. Only adds spice when there's an IRL connection also.

Oh yeah, on multiple occasions. It mostly stems from the fact that me and those people heavily enjoy roleplay, and if it naturally leads to ERP, then we do it. We even discuss it while talking IRL, assuming no other, more important topic is vying for our attention.

Yes, actually I do it often with my boyfriend, sometimes when I'm in the mood I usually cosplay the girls, he enjoys that and I have a lot of stories thanks to that.

I've met someone I've erped with irl before, but I've never erped with someone who I already knew from something unrelated

I have never had sex with a partner while cosplaying but I have had sex while wearing a cosplay
