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!
Sweet 16 birthday party ideas?
Ok, so my birthday is in 4 weeks and I want to have a small party with my closest friends (5 friends). I am kind of lost on what to do. Here are some things that I want to have: 1) Pink/Black theme 2) Limo to a fancy resturant? 3) Sleepover at my house afterwards? What are your guys' opinions? Or what else should I do, or should I do something differently? Thanks everyone <3
I'm weird as hell and I don't fit in?
I'm going to be a sophomore in high school this year.. I'm sort of nerdy, I'm on the internet a lot, I'm into art and, to a level, anime. I know all about memes, I'm sort of a gamer girl, and I'm a bit vulgar and loud. I'm somewhat pessimistic and negative, but I'm trying to work on that. and I'm doing well :) No one likes me. I have some friends, but I really don't fit into their little group. I'm girly enough, but I barely do anything with my hair and I put so little effort into my outfits, I'm just a graphic tee and jeans kinda girl. I draw all the time in class, I know all kinds of stupid strange facts, I spend my time at home except during two sports seasons (there's another thing, I'm not athletic but I'm on sports teams anyways, go me) and even the third where I play in the pep band. I'm busy, but not socially. And then none of the guys like me and then only the freakin' strange ones come after me. Like they are STRANGE. and then I feel like I'm weird if the weird ones are coming after me and then NO ONE else comes after me. It sucks and then my self esteem gets lower. I also hear it's because I don't put out but hey, I'm not a skank :) I don't do drugs or drink, or get laid every weekend because I'm already crazy enough and I don't want to get pregnant, STD's, or become one of the school sluts. Bottom line, I'm not "cool" because I'm just freakin strange. I'm not a typical girl from these parts... however this is a less than 400 student school in the middle of the woods in New England. Basically no one likes me and I've never had much success with guys, the one decent one I had turned out to be a real woman. -_- Any ideas? Coping strategies, maybe. I've gone through everyone (casually, I didn't play clinger) trying to make friends and I've probably made more enemies and sort of outcasted myself. The upperclassmen hate me because of a previous mistake I made except for one who is like my sister. but she's graduating this year :( I don't want to change because it's fake and people will know that. Next year I have no classes with friends and I don't know what I'm going to do with myself. I don't like being a loner (but if that's what I gotta put up with you can suggest it, haha I'm up for whatever you all have to say, i'd prefer if you weren't rude though :P )
