The problem is, the question specified if you've EVER done it. Like even once in your life. So if you were 10 years old and on Christmas break and played games for 8 hours, you either answer yes or lie.
I think it's a bad question with no room for nuance.
I swear I've seen you post that video like 10 different times. And it's hilarious every timeI'm pretty sure if you identify so strongly as a gamer, you're also a loser
All OKC questions allow you to expand on your answer. My answer to that question was yes, but I put that it had only happened once (Halo 3 marathon!).
Is that so? How does it take into account the extra info when calculating the match? For example, if she put her "Hell No!" (paraphrasing) answer and marked the yes answer as unacceptable, wouldn't it still take the match down to 0% even with the extra info you put in?
I don't get the OP
who asked that question and who answered it first
The ever implies people may have done it when they were kids. I certainly did it as a kid but I don't remember myself doing that ever in the last 15 years.Playing a videogame for over 8 hours straight is kind of weird though.
Having balance in life is important.

Gaming culture is toxic enough as it is with gamergate, introduce dating to it and the harassment will go way up when nerds get rejected. Ok, that's men in general, but stillYou know...they have Farmer's Only, and Christian Mingle, and Black People Meet, and all these other dating sites tailored to specific demographics...where's the geek and gamer mating site? Why isn't somebody all over that?
I never have problems in the beginning phases.
But so many dates I get online end up like this for some reason.
Me: Hey, nice meeting you yesterday.
Her: (5 minutes later) Yes it was so much fun! We definitely have to do it again sometime
Next week
Me: Let's get together this Friday if you have time
Her: (2 days later) SO SORRY BUSY FOREVER
It's a mindfuck. I seriously barely dated anyone for five months after the last time it happened to me. I had a great date earlier this week and I think it's happening again (don't wanna jump to conclusions since she just started a new job but given past experiences... )
Nah, it's fun where you get to meet a variety of people. Even if it doesn't work, get good conversations and a fun time out of it.Dating sucks
I agree that online dating is hard, but that picture is a great example of online dating being easy. Girl is a jerk who is not worth your time. Boom, saved you the trouble of finding out the slow way.
Dating sucks
Yes best of luck OP. A few additional pointers:
1) When chatting with the ladies be sure to sell yourself properly. For example, do you have a ronco rotisserie oven in your house? If so you definitely need to bring that up. Women like watching meat glisten and rotate slowly over a heating element. Make sure this special lady knows the door is always open for her to come over to watch your rotisserie oven in action.
2) Use subtle clues. Be sure to work phallic references into your discussions. Nothing crass, just be sure to work in references to tall buildings you've been in, rocketships, nuclear submarines, crayons, flagpoles, and things of that ilk. Remember: they're always listening on some level!
3) When you arrange to meet for your first date, don't get nervous! Pick a neutral location like a coffee shop and show up a few minutes late so you can make a proper introduction. When entering the room, be sure to pause at the door entrance so you can properly "frame" yourself. Cough briefly to make sure she's looking. Then stroll over to her. Try to extend your pelvis outward ever so slightly in her direction as you approach her. It's a subtle but effective way of communicating your inherent manhood to any new acquaintance.
4) when having your first conversation, make an effort to seem engaged and interested. Fold your hands in the "steeple" position and prop your chin on them. This will demonstrate to her that your actively interested in her. Be sure to clear your throat before starting any sentence so it's obvious that's you now intend to speak.
5) if you don't have a ronco rotisserie over at home, either go buy one, or lie and tell her you have one. Women fucking love the ronco rotisserie oven, I'm telling you.
Nah, it's fun where you get to meet a variety of people. Even if it doesn't work, get good conversations and a fun time out of it.
I get her point though. If you picture a guy playing games for more than 8 hours at a time, you picture an out of shape dude in jean shorts, sipping energy drinks in a dark room. That's not sexy. Of course that's a stereotype but one that's definitely true a lot too.

Jon Bones, teach us your ways!! More advice!!
Goddammit.
I was wondering, sure, promoting yourself has a huge gamer may deter some people , but wouldn't looking hard enough allow you to dig up some gamer girl out there ? Or do they just not exist xD
In a world where Netflix binging is common, is it?Playing a videogame for over 8 hours straight is kind of weird though.

Just set the answer to that question to be very important, and don't check the profile of anyone with a match % less than 80%.

Haha that's the paradox always, isn't it? I hear that argument all the time, even if most of it is not very serious or ill spirited, and I have many times presented the netflix comparison and they ALWAYS get like " yeah but- hmm- no that's- look, it's different. IT JUST IS. END OF DISCUSSION.
From my experience, Tinder>Bumble>OKC>POF.
POF and OKC are pretty awful.
I've had a few success in person, though. It's actually quite easier, too. All I do is bring up how nice my ass is and they're smitten.
