Because I'm a huge gamer and for years I've wanting to have girlfriend/wife as a gamer. Reply to this Question Share |

You aren't going to get along with an outdoorsy girl who likes to go out an do things on the weekend. You might like a gamer girlfriend but you aren't really going to be able to meet or date one unless you go out and be social. (unless its an online sort of relationship I suppose)

I like games, so did my ex partner.. unfortunately we mostly liked different games. It's like sharing any interests, because you like the same thing, you can talk about things with understanding because you do the same thing yourself.I like simulation stuff and he helped design stuff for me. He liked killing things, and I could help him with fighting tactics and understand his frustrations when things when wrong. We both like puzzles, he was better than me so I gave up. Both like driving games, I was better than him, so he gave up.We both also like studying and philosophy..The key thing is a shared interest, something you either do together or understand a lot about. He did martial arts, I didn't, but I tried to learn. I liked dancing, he didn't, but he tried to learn.Some stuff together, some things apart, keeps you both sharing each others lives, but still gives you some things that only for yourself.Don't know if gamers are cooler than everybody else, but I like them... I also like other things too.

We'd have some drinks, get some friends round, and play Crash Bandicoot 'til the early hours.But as often happens, times and circumstances change. She hasn't picked up a controller now for years (last game she played was Fable 2, and she only did a couple of hours on that). She was really more of a platformer, a d early this gen there was really nothing out there for her, just a ton of bro-shooters on the 360 - that's initially why she stopped playing.Me, I'm 40 and rocking my way through Skyrim. It's a shame and all, but I didn't marry her for being a gamer.

Hah! My ex got me started on WoW & later Skyward Sword. He had a wealth of knowledge he wanted to share about it & I enjoyed learning from him. It was great to run dungeons together or get his help on quests. I liked playing on 2 computers in the same room & I loved to play at the same time when we were apart. It was a good source of bonding for us. Go to conventions. Ask your guilds or go on Facebook to find fellow female & maybe you too will find your own "Codex"! Good luck! -_o

We get along really well because we have a whole lot of things in common and it's fun beating games together and making game references. I love him and I know that he loves me as well, but sometimes I kinda feel like he thinks his games are more important than me.
So as long as you give her attention I think everything should be fine. We're very happy together.

no offence my love, i know this is what most guys want. But you shouldn't base a relationship with someone on whether she plays video games. she could play games and be a d*ck. You can't determine someones personality and their compatibility with you on whether they play games or not. you need to base it on personality and attraction x
