trying to find a girl gamer
" Its really tough meeting someone with your criteria in mind. Anyone with criteria in mind is going to have a hard time finding what they want. The above advice is the best but you have to put yourself out there and that is also pretty tough.. How do you even go about putting yourself out there? For me i meet a lot of people at concerts, its a social gathering where you wait around, smoke, drink and talk about music.. Works well and its filled with people like me. In your case you'd be best doing the same thing with conventions, events and other stuff like that... I wish you the best of luck with it, i really do. |

Wraeclast is an unlikely place to find love. Have you tried the xyz forums?

lol ay, thought i had a deja vu there too..
@OP: give it up you wont find "her" anyways. and thing is, it doesnt matter... if you find the girl of your dreams you wont be playing as much as you are now anymore anyways, even if shes a gamergirl, coz you will start to spend time together and do other things. if you should end up just gaming together like you did alone then theres no reason for having a gf. together alone is no solution and prolly will not work. if you just want someone under your desk for a portion of happines while gaming, then there are cheaper and quicker solutions available. but still, good luck with chasing your dream. |

Main problem is, I'm not much into the whole alfa/beta thing, it's an oversimplified and shallow approach, but you do sound beta as fuck :)
You have to be realistic about these things.

" Baseless and arbitrary positivism always bugs me. You have absolutely no grounds to say that. He might as well not find her. In which case, your empty platitudes will only rub salt in the wound. You have to be realistic about these things.

Having a some beer and playing games with a woman is great fun and can lead to some frisky times! I'll not lie! I've played games with women; often our goals were not the same and it led to conflict in real life. IN. REAL. LIFE. In another game I play I made a good friend but over time things changed and now all it's done is push us farther and farther away because we had different visions for our org/guild/clan/whatever. She ran our bot and forums, the org voted me in and so she quit. Not heard from her since.
I do play games with my RL other, mostly board and card games since she not big on tech and while we don't always get along she knows the MMO's, my forge, and kitchen are my "Me time." She has hers, I have mine. We've been together nearly 16 years now and have a 3 year old and planning for another soon so something is working right. ;) LOL, this is not the intro to the PoE forums I was hoping to make! |

" It was a good intro :) You have to be realistic about these things.

It can be tough to meet people through gaming, speaking as a woman, because there are enough guys who "joke" about getting in the kitchen, making sandwiches, stuff along those lines, never mind the ones who send unsolicited dick pics, or think you "owe" them a chance, or harass in general. It makes it such that mostly you don't want to admit to being female. So good on you, OP, for being open and willing for things to be just friends.
As someone who has started relationships through gaming a few times, be prepared to be long distance. If things do work out, be open to possible moving in the longer term. She may not be willing or able to move to where you are. I do hope that things work out. (I'm way too old for you, so won't be offering to hook up with you.) Good luck and stay classy! |
