Wow if true about the 50 that's nothing to be proud of that's just juvenile and asinine. In a few years one title shall fit you, slut. But I guess that is a good thing for guys looking for a one night stand. Also agree with cyclomega |

I'm so glad you're here. I've been having so much trouble with my computer, can you take a look at it? |

I know people who got married at 18 and divorced within a year, but then, I've know thirty year olds in the same situation, so age doesn't seem to have much to do with it -- not half so much as maturity. I didn't get *married* quite so young, but I'm 29 and have been married for 7 years to a man I started dating when we were 15 (well before my "brain was fully developed," thank you very much). We did exactly what motokemu says: we evolved together. It's not always been easy, and we still don't have much money (especially when you add kids to the mix), but we're deliriously happy and wouldn't have had it any other way. Good luck to you guys; I wish you many happy years together. |

Hah. Hahah. Still laughing like a madman with a dynamite in his ass, and with the fuse igniter ready to stop burning only when he laughs his ass upside, 360, and then down. That was pwnage at it's best. |

Hah. How's dating one person regularly better than going out with (if I would try to imitate you) 50 boyfriends? |
Anonymous Source Posts: 7 Joined: 3 Oct 2008 | Nope. Lasses seem to like me though, but I guess the thought of a girlfriend always seemed like it would bring lots of extra rules to my life that I didn't feel like following. Besides I've always had plenty of good friends, so I never really ever felt lonely. But I think it's high time I got myself a significant other ;) |

Sounds like some sort of boyfriend ADD :) |

I think the rest of the world calls that "dating". There should be some law that says you're not allowed to say you're someone's girlfriend/boyfriend until you've been together for at least two weeks, or a month, or something. Oh, and looks like some new person or two I've met this semester don't seem to give a flying fuck about me in any way, despite indicating that they did previously. Don't you just love that? Fairly serious problem, actually, considering I've alienated pretty much everyone else in my university program. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 488 Joined: 30 Sep 2008 | I'm too bitter, critical and cynical to get a grilfriend. plus im a gamer, therefore i have to get a girl gamer, and do you have any idea how hard it is to find those? the only girl gamer i know is off limits too, for various reasons. =( |

I second that motion, or third... whatever |
Muckraker Posts: 321 Joined: 17 Aug 2008 | I have a girlfriend, and we've been dating for over 8 months(I am proud of myself) and she is amazing. And she actually doesn't care that I'm a gamer. |
Paperboy Posts: 27 Joined: 10 Sep 2008 | Well, i don't have a 'Girlfriend', but i have a girl, its not like were dating, just some fun once in a while. But thats good, because i don't really want complete commitment at 15:) |

Copy Clerk Posts: 73 Joined: 28 Jul 2008 | In short, no, in long, I'm 16, and had a shot at getting into my first relationship a few days back, but even though I was interested, I lied and said no as I don't think relationships work out well when you're a teenager. Damn kids these days ;) |

I know a shit load of really attractive female gamers. Some of them even like men. Funny how that happens, hey. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 393 Joined: 22 Sep 2008 |
Do you, by any chance, know these people online, but not offline? There's enough female gamers around but your chances of finding any in real life are pretty much impossible because, like I've mentioned elsewhere, unless all you play is Rock Band, it's basically asking for social outcastdom to admit to anything else (sadly, that's all it takes to be considered a "gamer" these days). You really won't meet anyone like that outside of the Internet. And of course, being a gamer isn't enough. There's stuff like, you know, intelligence, and political views, and sanity. People are too quick to judge each other based solely on consumption habits; the West is revolting, isn't it? |

I know at least four fairly attractive to drop dead gorgeous gaming girls (Triple Alliteration Achievement unlocked. 40 Gamerpoints!), all of which I met and befriended offline. As with male gamers, unsurprisingly, they have varied gaming interests to each other. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1516 Joined: 14 Oct 2007 |
Met them off-line, known them for years. Intelligence, yes. Sanity? Depends on your definition thereof. And yes, the West is revolting. I think I'll go and purge my stomach right about now. |

It's a joke, was that not obvious? |

Okay, fine. Maybe everyone in Toronto is just a shallow, self-absorbed social-climbing asshole. |

Hey, if you can't find one, make one. If I could turn my southern man into a hockey fan, anything can happen. Besides, lots of girls play casually, and a casual gamer is just a hardcore player who needs a push. Find a girl who plays The Sims and get her a copy of Spore. It's like a crash course in the 4 most common genres of games currently being made and the ultimate gateway game. It's a sure bet -- even my mom loved it. And good luck. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 425 Joined: 19 Jun 2008 | Not quite on topic, but what's the deal with people referring to their girl or boyfriends as "partners"? Sounds more like a business deal than a personal relationship. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 393 Joined: 22 Sep 2008 |
Because it's non-specific. Language changes the way people think, and it's hoped, at least, that people can change views regarding traditional relationships by using terms that don't have heterosexuality as an implicit or explicit norm. |

You are a liar and I also also hate you. But if you are telling the truth I think you should know that I would kill you to live your life. |

Oh it was obvious, but I think my response was less so. Damn you internet and your lack of emotion detectors. |

Or you have to at least go on a date, none of this primary school "will you go out with me" "kay" stuff =D I've had 3 serious girlfriends (4 if you count the net girlfriend I had..) I'm still with one of them, shes great.. Supportive and funny and fun and cute and likes stuff I like.. All the important stuff haha. Now that I think about it, all my girlfriends play video games. The first one beat me at SSX (which just should not happen!) The second one plays warcraft 3 and a little bit of WoW on her brothers account. My current girlfriend plays Viva Pinata, Tekken, Spore and a bunch of other games like that.. Nothing hardcore but its better then nothing. Oh and she's played DnD with me before.. That was cool! I like having a girlfriend, I always look forward to the days I get to see her, she makes me really happy when we are together and she makes me feel better when i'm sad. I'm not that big on being single, I'm not one to go out to pubs looking for one night stands, I don't know how I'd go at pulling a random girl into a relationship either as all the girls I've been with have been friends of friends or I've spent time with. Anyways.. Girlfriends are pretty great =D |

Copy Clerk Posts: 104 Joined: 19 Jun 2008 | Holy shit! I thought I was the only one with a pathetic love life. I guess gamers are still ostracized by the general population, either that or most gamers figure that they can watch porn and game at the same time so fuck it why not? I'm single, but I do have this girl who wants to date me. Call me a prude, but she's not my type though :3. |

That doesn't work with me, especially because I really don't like the idea of "dating". It seems like an archaic and silly, overly formal tradition. What's wrong with just hanging out and spending time together? Why do you have to do dinner and a movie, or spend a day at the fair? The practice of dating is ingrained within Western capitalism, and while not on its own a bad thing, removed from its context it almost seems like it loses meaning for a lot of people. That's obviously not entirely true, but I'm pretty sure that if someone asked me out (quite the hypothetical) and I said "dating is stupid, can't we just talk" or something, it would either make them lose interest in me or think I was at least kind of strange. It's like you can't date someone without buying them something. I don't understand how you can "date" for years, either, or even more than a couple of months. At some point you're going to start spending a long time with someone, staying at their house, meeting them after school or work, etc. Is that still "dating"? I don't know how the terms are used colloquially, but "dating" seems to imply a completely different state of a relationship. |
I also hate you.
