Woman Dumped Husband To Pursue Online Romance In Video Game

When she was 37 years old, Kelly Sexton started playing Second Life, a game allowing players to customize their in-game avatars and live out their wildest fantasies.

The game offers her an escape from all the troubles she was having in her real life. Sexton was married with four children at the time so she had never thought of having an online romance, but truth to be told, that was exactly what happened to her.

In 2016, Selena’s Kelly’s avatar met a stranger in the game, who started pole dancing right in front of her. They later went on a date at an amusement park in Second Life. The male avatar’s name is Staticmuse and the man behind it is Nick Von Asten, an American.

When Kelly shared that she was married but not very happy with the marriage, the two of them decided that they could be in a relationship in the game.

A few days in the online romance, Kelly admitted to her husband that she was not happy and much to her surprise, her husband felt the same way. The two of them later agreed on a separation.

Selena and Staticmuse got married in the virtual world on February 25, 2017, in a chapel Staticmuse built from scratch. They even have a digital house and a baby together in the game.

Last year, Nick and Kelly got married in real life. Since they got together, they have not spent much time in the virtual world anymore since having each other in real life is much more interesting. A happy ending for their online romance.
