Does having a gf and playing vidya regularly even go together?
I feel like that would be impossible for me.
>>
>>334944869
Not really
unless you two play games while with each other
>>
If you find one who likes games/anime it can. However the whole point would be the two of you being together.
New restaurant? Party? Getting drunk and having sex all night? It all replaces gaming time.
>>
But where do i find vidya playing gf
>>
Don't have a gf, play all the vidya you want. Simple.
fucking normies i swear
>>
>>334944869
Mostly depends on priorities of you and her respectively.
>Does she like vidya
>Then you can chill with some games and shit
>Does she not?
>Then you can chill while she does whatever on occasion, but mostly you're gonna be doing stuff with her you both like or she likes.

I fall into the former, thankfully.

Best situation:
You find her through online dating and she's close.
Worst situation: You end up latching onto a "Gamer girl" in your area.

Could go either way: /soc/
>>
My gf plays video games and watches anime with me

The problem is she gets to shaky when she plays games because she's competive
>>
Depends on how you define regular.
Regular like a NEET won't ever be achievable.
>>
My gf never played videogames before she met me. She loved Kirby's Epic Yarn, now we play Kirby games and other accessible/co-op games like Yoshi's Woolly World, Smash Bros, and Mario Kart together, and she has recently decided to tackle the Shantae games by herself.

The thing is to find the right "gateway game" and not be pushy about it.
>>
When we're off work we just get on the couch, I play vidya and she reads on her Kindle. Easy.
>>
I dunno, I wouldn't really mind having a grill who doesnt play vidya.
But i would feel really sorry if i couldnt make so much time for her
>>
It doesnt. Girls hate video games and attribute them with losers.

My gf fucking hates when i play and i know shes judging. Makes it hard to play ds3 rn

>when she gets home from work tired and horny and she gives you head while you play

Even if she doesn't like playing as long as you play games that are fun to watch it's chill cuz she can just hang in the same area. Just don't play bad games, op.
>>
Pussy doesn't work well with vidya mostly.
Same reason why most girls can't into games.
>>
Its not really that hard depending on how much you work. I usually end up playing at night, when my gf is in bed reading.
>>
My gf only likes fucking sims.
But if that means that we can do something together I'll happily play it with her

My best relationship was with a chick who thought games and things were stupid. Of course, this was before smart phones, so I'll bet nowadays she's always on the facebook being an attention whore, but she didn't ever use a flip cell phone to constant txt msg her bff jill.
Just get one that has her own hobbies, preferably a gay artsy fartsy one. You tell her her faggot painting or sculpture or sewing looks good and you're envious of her talent, and she lets you play your stupid games.
>>
>>334944869
Go to bed a little later or wake up a little earlier, boom you have time for any hobby you want.
>>
No, because girls play shitty games like dota 2, and they want you to play with them every fucking hour. Avoid them like a plague.

Depends. Last girl I dated I tried introducing to Dark Souls but she was terrible at it. She did enjoy watching me play games though. Girl I dated before her was a psychotic abusive chick

I met through NA who would never give me some alone time to play games and constantly insist I come over to her house until 2 in the morning to listen to her bitch and moan about how much her life sucked and how terrible the world is.

Basically date a chick who's into games and you'll have time for games. Date a chick who's either not into games or overly clingy and obsessive and you won't have time for games.

Listen up, /v/irgins. You need to get over this "she should accept me" stuff. If you think you're grown up and adult enough for relationships, you need to accept that she is now your life and she calls the shots. You are lucky enough to have a girl willing to be with you, and you're asking for MORE? Thank your lucky stars, no, thank HER for being with you and having the patience to deal with you. Christ.

I think I misworded my point. By "gamer girls' i mean the ones who sit on LoL and Shitrim all day long and not much else. It's cool if they're modestly into it or are into more respectable titles.
My point is that I don't demand it from them.

Just establish early on (through actions not words) that you take time for your hobbies, and don't let the relationship define everything you do. Your interests don't have to fully overlap, as long as you have things you both like to so together some of the time.

Don't date a girl who is weird and likes to spend all spare time together

> Girls acting like girls playing video games is something rare and unheard of

This annoys the shit out of me. An older chick I dated used to play Warcraft 1-2 and WoW a lot when she was younger and as far as I know still plays Lego games from time to time. Shit, even my mom used to play Myst and was really interested in Bloodborn's gothic victorian atmosphere and setting (though she'd never play it because she's really unsettled by blood and gore). There's literally nothing new about girls playing video games and nobody gives a shit about it anymore.

If you don't give off the idea that you also have options then you basically surrender yourself to her.

You patronizing condescending little fuck You think everyone you talk to here is a kid who doesn't have vaguest idea what a relationship actually is? Do everyone a favor. Go to your parents (if they indeed still are together) and ask them if their relationship isn't about love. Or if their raising you wasn't about love. Let's see where that gets you. Just because you were raised in an age and culture of superficiality and materialism, does NOT mean everyone else was. Some of us remember the days when people actually had integrity.

I see you haven't had a relationship in some time. Go date a girl and see how long it takes for her to get bored and get with somebody else. You could be handsome or rich or have a nice wiener, and they'll still get tired of you and leave. It's what they do, they don't like or love you, they're with you because that's just how they feel right now.

Your tips WILL end up with the girl dumping you exactly because you're not interesting enough or have no pushback.

This is exactly why I know you are the least qualified here to give anyone dating advice as if you're some playboy dating guru.

you're onto something even though this post is fucking retarded.

people on /v/ and roneryfags have 3 problems: narcissism, no confidence and high expectations. they demand the girl they're with put up with all their bullshit and neediness without offering anything in return. nobody - NOBODY - wants to be with a whiny little fuck. they want someone who's open, cool and fun. that's literally all you need to be to attract women. and take care of yourself for gods sake.

and be more forward. if you're getting along with a girl ask her out to coffee or invite her to your place. BE CHILL. be confident. act like you're not some pathetic faggot on 4chan who cries about being a virgin.

We do a lot of fun stuff together, and it isn't like games are my life like some people on /v/. I'm also not a loser who needs to play games for hours and hours every day.
