I know this might be an odd question, but after reading "How to: Date a Gamer Girl" in the latest issue of GamePro, I thought of asking this question to the people of FFF, in a poll.

So who do you think, in your opinion, could give better tips for dating a Gamer Girl? A fellow Gamer Guy, or a Gamer Girl?

I think that most Gamer Girls could give better tips on that, since they are a girl them self, they are the ones the Gamer Guys are trying to impress, and they may have seen guys do all kind of things to try get a girl to go for them, so they may have more experience with what works and what doesn't. :P
 
I imagine that would be the popular vote, since it makes sense, but there may be some good gamer guys that have
had dates with gamer girls, and things always go very well, then they may have a pretty good idea on what you should keep in mind when dating a gamer girl.

But yeah, I stick with my vote, I am a guy, and a gamer, and I don't think I could give very good tips... >_>

Maybe partly because I've never been had a date. XD But I haven't tried, just not comfortable about it yet, not a very courageous person, actually quite nervous.
 
lol i'm same as you, only a little younger. course, when we have no one decent to lead us in a strategy game or something at school, i step up and things turn out pretty well. gamer girls are pretty much girls who play video games more than normal girls do.

A Gamer Girl is a girl that has a lot of interest in video games, and spends a lot of time playing them, while regular girls, well, have no interest in video games, and don't care to play them at all (or at least very, very rarely, and not that into it if and when they do play a game).

Not much of a difference, other than the one loves to play video games, and the other couldn't care less about them. :P
 
ive never been on an actual date but if been out with quite a few girls and what ive learned is you just have to be yourself (and not a jerk) make her feel comftable and get to know each other i guess...and dont try and make progress before its due
 
Well, that is of course true, though there are things you can do as nice gestures, like getting something for her that you know she'd like.

But yes, being nice to them is very important, but showing them how much you care about them by getting them something they'd really like, or even making something for her, if you make the thing well, that could be even better.
 
I think gamer girls give better dating advice because they know what they want and they know how to flirt well unlike some guys.And I bet if you asked a gamer girl advice for dating she would give you some and it would work.And the other reason why it would because us girls know what we look for in a guy.Im not really sure if that makes sense but Im sure you get what I mean.

makes perfect sense to me
 
i do, mainly because most of the family i know of are girls, so i've gotten used to them. i kinda understand what your saying shy, maybe you could give an english explanation to everyone else.
 
It does make sense, there are lots of reasons to think gamer girls could give better advice than gamer guys for dating gamer girls, one being that they are gamer girls themselves, so they know just what they want, so they should be able to give better tips than guys, who usually, at least to some degree, go out on a limb at times, hoping that something will go over well, or whatnot.

Gamer girls themselves do know what they want from a guy, so they should know fellow gamer girls like themselves better than a lot of guys would, they're the ones really taking a chance, the girls don't need to even agree to going out on a date with someone in the first place, then they are rejected before they can even start. :P

A gamer guy.

let me qualify that statement; a *successful* gamer guy.

People will only ever be able to express what they THINK they want. Someone who has had plenty of experience will know what they *actually* want and what *actually* works.

Perfect example is the whole concept of keeping someone at a distance so they want you more. A girl is never going to say "Oh i love it when i have to do all the running in a relationship" when if a guy gives them everything they want, they'll get bored and leave...

Hope that made sense ;)
 
Gamer girls for all the reasons that have been said above. Because they know what they want so they can give you advice if you are into another girl because they are a girl aswell.
 
I felt that since this is more of a general discussion about dating overall (gamer girl/boy or not), I'll move this to Costa as it seems more fitting there. =]

-Thread Moved-
 
Sorry about that, I wasn't sure which to put it in, it is about girls who have interest in video games, but yeah, I guess this belongs there more, my mistake...

Anyways, yes, as it has been said before, the average gamer girl should be able to give better advice, since they are one them self.
 
This thread only works on the assumption that; all girls are exactly the same and that gamer girls are totally different from non-gamer girls.
Both seem to me to be stupid generalisations.
I won't say either as both have valid points. The whole topic though seems lacking morally.
 
I understand what you're saying, I suppose there isn't much of a question here really, sorry if it's a bit meaningless, I thought that, at first, it might turn out a bit better, but I understand why you feel that way.

But do give me some slack, this is only my second thread, I thought I'd contribute to FFF by making a thread, but perhaps another topic would've been more fitting.

Anyway, yes, there are valid points for both, but I just think there are more valid points for gamer girls, and more significant.

And everyone has voted the same, I guess the answer to this poll's question is pretty obvious, nearly everyone votes Gamer Girls (and rightfully so).
 
Why dont you just tell them that you LOVE final fantasy, you'll instantly have something in common. Everyone likes final fantasy, everyone here in this forum seems to think so...
 
Everyone I know hates it -_-

Anyway as for giving advice? I'd say neither. I'd get advice from someone that had relationship experience as opposed to a particular gender. For arguments sake, lets say Im faced with a gamer girl and a gamer guy. Girl is 15 guy is 25. I'd be more inclined to go to him for advice, I mean, what could a 15 year old tell me about relationhips? Switch the ages and switch who I speak to :monster:

Now if they were both the same age, I'd probably have a natter to them both and make my own judgment from what they tell me

At the end of the day, you need to get in there and give it a crack. People can give you advice til they are blue in the face, but we are all individuals and react differently in relationships
