telling a girl how much you love video games

Post by Snickerd00dle »

who else finds it awkward when a girl goes, so what do you like?
and the response, at least for me, is, well, i collect videogames
for the most part it turns out ok
but should i not bring that up?

Well, it's good to be open about yourself, and I guess if you tell them that right from the get-go it'll be easier to meet someone who's really a good match for you. But as far as casual dating goes, I'd say maybe it's not the kind of thing you want to bring up on your first encounter.

As for me, I usually kind of keep the gaming thing under wraps since there's such a stigma attached. Then after dating a girl for awhile it becomes like this big reveal, like, "Honey, there's something you should know about me." At least I don't turn out to be a chick.

You can either be honest and be alone, or lie. Lying takes too much energy, so I never tried it.

I stick with that conclusion as well, but after 10 years, it gets stale.

Wow, I wish you weren't so right on that one.

Or find a girl who likes you for who you are.

I got one, and it rocks.

Hey fuck you and your damn luck.


Seriously though, how do you even find someone like that? What's the name of the quest? :lol:

You gotta go with the balance. You don't mention the size of your collection, you just mention you have a decent sized one. Either that or you have a buddy call your phone which has the Super Mario World as it's ringtone or something.

its not so much a matter of where to find a girl like that, its just time
once i stopped caring and looking for girls
they tended to kinda just appear
it helps also if you have high luck and intelligence, strength and dexterity only count sometimes
