How can I get a gaming girlfriend?
How to get a gamer girl in three steps:Be self aware - Are you clean and neat? Are you respectful in conversations? Do you pay attention to other people’s body language cues and adjust your behavior accordingly? Make sure you’re meeting basic social norms.Be genuinely interested in a variety of things and be good at them. People who have a wide range of interests are more fun to spend time with. Meeting a potential girlfriend who shares your interest in gaming may take time - pursuing other interests will give you something fun to do while you wait.Go where the gamers are. For example, if you’re looking for a DnD player, spend time at game stores that host ongoing DnD campaigns. Play in as many as you have time for. People love to match-make. As you have positive interactions with your fellow gamers, they will be inclined to introduce you to female friends they feel would be a good match for you.Finding a partner will take time. Be patient and don’t despair. When you meet a potential partner, let her check you out and feel comfortable with you. Pay attention to her but don’t be creepy about it. Don’t rush in but also don’t wait so long to indicate your interest that you wind up in the friend zone.Don’t write off a potential partner just because she’s not a gamer - if she likes you, she’ll probably be willing to learn to play. It’s important to have other interests though - it’s not so great to be a one trick pony.Don’t take a rejection or a friend-zoning personally - there will be a lot of people you’re not a romantic match for. It’s okay, just keep trying. Trust me, there’s a lid for every pot.
How to get better at gaming again?
I am a college aged girl and grew up playing free world games like all of the GTA series, Saints Row, and True Crime NYC on PS2 and also Xbox 360. The end of my high school years and now into my early college years I became so busy I stopped gaming on console and have recently wanted to get back into gaming in general. The gaming community has changed so much and people’s skills are so much better than when I stopped gaming. Like I said, I want to get back into it so I built a gaming PC and it works great. My aim sucks now in shooter games I feel like I lost a lot of skill. I have played some PUBG and have lasted a really long time in many games, but am finding when I am nearing the end of the game I’m having trouble aiming while under pressure. Can anyone recommend any games I can play to improve my gaming skills? Should I continue PC gaming or buy a console? Any games where I can choose different servers for different difficulties or servers where there are more diversity in beginners and advanced gamers together? I really don’t know. Open to any helpful ideas and suggestions.
Side-Scrolling DS games?
I recently got my girlfriend into gaming (Awesome, right?). I bought her a DS and bought her a Garfield (side-scroller) game and a couple of other platformers (Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, Bolt, Madagascar, & Ben 10.) She loves the Garfield game because its a side scroller. She didn't care much for the other games because they were platformers (I admit, I bought Marvel 2 for myself ;-)) so I was hoping you guys could tell me some other side-scrollers that would be fun. Thanx!
How do you find gamer girls for dating?
As a ‘gamer girl’ of twenty years (I hate the word ‘girl’ being attached to that, honestly), I can say with confidence that the majority of female players absolutely do not like being vetted for a relationship while they are playing a game. Women play video games for the same reason men do — because they like to play video games. What most of them do not like is feeling as though their hobby is being interrupted by a guy (or girl) who is trying to start a little romantic something-something.There are plenty of people who have met in games and become best friends, started relationships, or even ended up together and/or married for real. But those sorts of relationships are founded over time, just like in every other aspect of life, and usually when you aren’t actively trying.My advice would be to not look specifically for a gamer girl, or at least don’t do so aggressively, but if you absolutely must:Join a gaming guild or a gaming community. Maybe you’ll find some ladies there whom you like who end up liking you back. Get into social media. There’s a large population of female gamers on Twitter. Follow them, chat with them, get to know them. Check out some Twitch streams and show your support of female-run channels. Try some online dating sites and look for potential partners with shared interests.Then, just be cool, man.
What game should I introduce to my girlfriend to get her into gaming?
First and foremost, you should not try and force her to play games if they don’t interest her. Period. If she’s open to trying new ones, then great. But if not, trying to force your interest on her is not cool.A lot will depend on what kinds of thing she enjoys. You’d probably want to stay away from anything too gameplay difficult (like dark souls) or anything majorly competitive (COD, Fortnite, League of Legends) to start. She might enjoy open world exploring, or strategy, or resource management games. If it turns out she does enjoy complex or competitive gameplay, then you can focus more there later.I’m not sure if you have consoles or PC, but here are a few that I’ve seen appeal to a variety of gamers:Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Splatoon, or literally any Mario game for SwitchStardew Valley on PC or consoleAny Sims gamesMinecraftCivilization (little more complex strategy, but you can start simple and work your way up)Possibly Borderlands. I enjoyed those games because they mesh story, a decent sized world, quests and first person shooter, while being absolutely hilarious.For open world exploration, Skyrim or FalloutMaybe try something like the remade Spyro or Crash Bandicoot seriesIf she already has some idea of what she likes, leave me a comment and I might be able to think of some others. Worst case, maybe try looking up some YouTube or Twitch streams of others playing games. Those are sometimes a great way of finding new games because they give you an idea of how the game works, but you don’t have to spoil it for yourself until you get a chance to play it (and you won’t spend a ton of money of a game you don’t like) Also, those who are well known gamers know how to make watching other people play games more entertaining.If she doesn’t enjoy gaming, don’t try and make her play or like it.
Chances of finding a gamer girl?
I know it seems odd I'd ask this, maybe, I don't know, I assume most guys wants a gf that games, hah. Anyways, I'm a freshmen in High School and I see alot of people dating (P.S. I dont really belive in dating in school, very few relationships like this last) and they seem pretty happy. Problem is, I have little in common with most girls, they all, I take that back, most, are very ditzy and behave stupidly for attention. I cannot stand that, and others would rather have me say I kick puppies than play video games. I'm not saying I would easily date a gamer girl, it's just, at least I'd have something in common, but they seem rather non-existent. So I ask, guys and girls, what do you think? Any lucky guys got a gamer girl? Any girls willing to tell me that they game, and aren't ditzy dumbasses at the same time? Adults? Anyone? It seems rather hopeless for me to love/like someone I have little in common with, but it seems I'll have a difficult time finding the perfect girl. I don't need damn sexy girls either, those girls often come with a lot of stupidity, hah, I can't stand the dumb, loud, ditzy, type. P.S. I don't mean DS or Wii or Tablets, I mean actual gaming, online or not, RPG's, Shooters, seems a bit far fetched, but I know all girls can't hate video games, well, let me know if I gotta chance
How do I convince my wife to be ok with me playing video games?
Surely your Wife has interests that you don't share, a simple reminder that you don't have to spend every spare second together shouldn't be an issue. My fiancée watches reality TV, I can't stand it but I'd never tell her to stop watching, she enjoys it, she affords me the same respect for my gaming.Why doesn't she like you playing games though? Is it just becaue you're not paying attention to her, or is it because you share the TV? Or does she just not like gaming because she can't understand it? You need to explain why you play, and help her understand what it means to you, if it helps, compare it to her interests that you don't like.If you're sharing a TV it can be a little tricky, she might not enjoy watching you play, I can understand that, some games aren't very exciting, there's a few things to try.Play games that might be more exciting to watch Find games you could play togetherInvest in a second TVTry a handheld system (you can still play and be together)A friend of mine has two TVs set up in his living room, he's a Sony player and his wife plays XBox, they don't play with each other often, but they play together.I invested in a Vita, I can play my PS4 on remote play and sit with my partner while she watches X Factor, I also introduced her to games we could play together, she doesn't give me grief about it anymore, now she even sets time aside for me so I can play.If she doesn't like you gaming because you aren't focused on her, either you need to spend more time with her, or you need to talk about it seriously with her, it's not healthy in a relationship to spend no time together but it can be just as damaging to spend too much time together, everyone needs some personal space, you just have to find a balance.
Where can I find girls that like to play video games?
Your only hope to even the odds statistically is with a dating site which allows you to filter your search along that criteria. I’ve tried that though (not specifically with that filter) and honestly I didn’t find online dating sites to have a better success rate than traditional dating practices. I’ve dated a lot and I think I’ve had about a ratio of 20% of the women I dated being casually into gaming and 5% were what I would consider real gamers.I found that out though only after spending time with each one, it was never an opening question. My current, and likely permanent, partner is definitely a gamer but I met her on Tinder, where you don’t add details like that. Basically in my experience it’s a numbers game.Keep dating like you are until you get lucky. A good way to save a lot of time, however, is to tell a new girl very early on that you love games and manga and so forth and ask if she’d enjoy going to a convention and dressing up - if she doesn’t seem excited by the idea, you’ll know early that you two aren’t likely have much in common there.
What is it like to date a gamer girl?
Well, I can’t say from the perspective of a guy, but I do know from my partner telling me how it is to date me when we make jokes about comparing it to some of our friends’ relationships.Instead of buying expensive jewelry, Victoria’s Secret, chocolates, or roses, your girl will be satisfied with a game that has 80+ hours of gameplay.Your conversations revolve less around “I am so mad at Jessica, she totally blocked me on Facebook,” and more about, “The AAA games are really starting to fall short lately, I remember back in the day…”When your girl isn’t texting you back late at night and then she texts you at 2 AM, saying, “Sorry, I finally got through this level,” you don’t have to worry about her being at the club, getting drunk, and making out with some random f-boy.Her idea of drama is when she keeps killing NPCs and the guards won’t stop trying to kill her every time she’s on a side quest.In a fight, you don’t have to worry about her breaking your console or TV because she would throw you out of the house if you did that to her gaming rig.She’s okay with a night in eating pizza, playing video games, or watching YouTube videos on games.She understands when you can’t hit pause in the middle of a game because, well, sometimes you just don’t have that option. (i.e., Dark Souls)You get an equal balance of “girlfriend time” and “gaming time” because she wants the same thing.All satire aside with some of these bullet points, it does depend on the girl. Not every gamer girl is going to be as chill/laid back as the perception might be. Realistically, you could have a crazier version of Anita Sarkeesian on your hands or you might have a sweetheart.But as far as my relationship goes, we’re both pretty chilled out and are pretty understanding of each other’s gaming habit. Even better, when we go out with friends, the conversations almost always end up on gaming, rigs, and what we’re planning to play next. Overall, I’ve got to say that we ended up fairly lucky in our relationship match!
How do I get my girlfriend to enjoy playing video games?
My wife has no interest in gaming. She doesn't really get how it works or why it's fun for me. We have a kind of arrangement whereby I play while she binge-watches Thai dramas. It works for us. I'm mostly into single-player games so it's not something we could really do together anyway, and I wouldn't enjoy those TV shows even if I didn't find dubbed soap operas intrinsically hilarious.But you can keep trying. You can't 'get' her to enjoy something, but you can encourage. She seems willing to try and has allowed that she doesn't hate it, so you're about halfway there already.It may just be a case of finding the right game for her. If she enjoyed Minecraft, she might enjoy building or management-focussed games. See how she responds to Civ, though maybe start with something like the Sims or the Theme serious of games. These tend to be easier to control and more forgiving.Also, whatever kind of stories she likes there is almost certainly an RPG out there for her. The Zelda or Final Fantasy series might not be a bad place to start, building up to the likes of Bioware and Bethesda.There's also a world of sports games and simulators that may pique her interests. If she likes soccer, there's a video game for that. If she likes goats, there's a game for that too...It may or may not be the gateway to the two of you playing Halo together, but it's worth a try.I would say, though, that you should be willing to give something in return. Fair's fair - if you're asking her to take an interest in your hobby, it would be a nice gesture to take an interest in hers.
