Way 1: be interesting enough that they lose interest in the game.

xinpig · 03-17-2008, 02:27 PM

yeah! that works to a certain extent

Really? It was that funny?

Tokzic · 03-17-2008, 07:34 PM

if i got a chick who didn't like video games

i can't even continue, i wouldn't date a chick who doesn't like video games

I second Tokzic. If she doesn't like video games, I will not be her girlfriend, or somehow if I find out about it later, I will probably dump her.

My boyfriend's friend's friend had a boyfriend and her boyfriend played WoW. And her boyfriend was in a clan and he asked her to join. The clan leader said yes and after she played WoW more, she and the clan leader got close, and the girl dumped her boyfriend for the clan leader. Note that we live in NJ, while her clan leader boyfriend lives in New Mexico. I lmfao. This is semi-off topic but I felt that it was funny to share.

I'm currently single, but my potential girlfriend has to be severely into anime. That cuts off about 30% of the population.
She also must be at least half as interested in video games as me. There goes another 20%.
Finally, must be a somewhat decent FFR player. There goes another 47%.

I'm picky.
Who cares, I don't mind being single that much, and I'm not going to settle for less. If someone comes along who is perfect for me, then yay to that. Although I think my dating opportunities may be limited to the FFR community... >_<

Lol. Worst post ever.

Eff those seven reasons. More sex ftw.

**blindreper1179** · 03-18-2008, 12:34 AM

their addiction to not playing video games is ruining my relationship. j/k but seriously, they know they play games, so they know they need their gaming time.

**EnR** · 03-18-2008, 01:05 AM

I don't think I found a girl around here who likes my ffr/sm skillz haha, expect for 2 that play the game (and are very pretty to boot

)

**-Fallen-** · 03-18-2008, 09:13 AM

I actually met someone new, she's gorgeous, like you'd never stop and think she's a gamer but she kicks my ass so bad at Guitar Hero, it's embarassing :P Then again I don't really play. But she enjoys having fun, and if she has to play a few games or come to the arcades every so often she will.

JKPolk · 03-18-2008, 09:21 AM

Fallen's lying I can tell. I can see it in his eyes.

**-Fallen-** · 03-18-2008, 09:24 AM

**All_That_Chaz** · 03-18-2008, 09:31 AM

That article was sarcastic at best and horribly stupid at worst.

Whilst reading that, I thought it was just moronic and stupid--only a nut-case should be doing something like that.

Where's the creativity or sense in this article?
