I turned my wife into a gamer for a while. I got her hooked on Starcraft at one point. I even brought her to LAN parties where she murderized some of my friends. I was so proud.

There were a couple times that we fought when she took the trash talking a little bit too far. Especially with Puzzle Fighter. She's really sharp at puzzle games and I got her a gameboy SP with that game so she could play anywhere. She used to kill time at the arcade on campus with one quarter and stay on the machine for hours taking challenger after challenger. (so proud).

Now that we have kids, those days are behind her. I can't seem to lure her into Starcraft 2 or Diablo and she doesn't want to get hooked again. She picks up Tetris on Nintendo DS but that's it.

my ex did the same thing Bre. He would get so mad when I expected him to do the dishes or take out the trash while I finished a raid or a PVP battle. I miss playing with him tho lol. But since then no I haven't really dated a gamer. My bf now plays xbox a lot but nothing like what I did.

All of my boyfriends have been gamers. My current boyfriend and I met on World of Warcraft. We were friends online for 5 years but weren't single... then things fell into place, he was in an unhappy relationship and my marriage fell apart... we got closer and have been dating for over 2 years now He's huge into PC gaming, I've been playing more Xbox stuff recently but we're both currently playing Diablo 3 It's tough when you want to have some together time and the games are so addicting but as long as you make it a point to have date nights, it hasn't been an issue

My wife used to be into QUAKE and Doom. She was able to hold her own. Now my wife sticks to 2D cuz anything else gets her sick. She can only beat me in Mario Party games and some Wii Sports Resorts. Oh, and she's a monster at Mario Kart. All editions (cept the GCN version). She also was madly in love with Pikmin. Almost to the point that she almost got a tat of the fat purple one. She works for NASA, so she builds and plays with cooler *kitten*.

Never a fan of dating other gamers. I like to play with friends and raze hell and just do random things. Never found a female gamer that thinks blocking a hallway and playing trivia to get out was fun.

*edited cuz my tablet is lame*

I've done that before... teachers got so pissed when we did lol. (Did it in high school)

I remember playing Counter-Strike in the computer lab during lunch. Had some awesome LAN. Screw Online play LAN rules.

My bf is a gamer! He plays semi-professional Team Fortress 2 and will hopefully go pro next season. He also used to play WoW competitively.

I'm a big gamer, but not nearly the same as him. He says I have the skill to go competitive, but I don't want to because I really like staying a casual gamer. Balancing school, work, and him is already hard enough. With competitive play, I'd just be too busy.

Him and I do clash a little bit because of his time spent. I compromise with him and generally just ask for a day or two a week for me to steal him and hang out with him. Even then, I don't care if he practices with his team late at night. As long as I get to see him for a few hours a couple days a week, I'm happy.

I never have dated a gamer. I have no idea if it would work out. I still play but I am more casual now than in the past. I needed to cut back for health reasons. I got up to almost 500 lbs. MMORPGs was my thing, specifically FFXI.

I think it just depends on the person. I am much more physically active now than in the past. I average 2-4 hrs a week of game time while in the past it was 8-10 hrs a day everyday. If I was to date someone who was similar in game playing time then I believe it could work out but if she was more hard core I forsee conflict and I think it would not work out in the long run.

I've been trying to get my fiance interested in games for years...unfortunately I don't think I will ever date a gamer. Could have been an interesting experience. Now jealousy rears its ugly head......

My husband got me into WoW.
We met in highschool, and before i started playing i would watch him play. Or when he was raiding and I didn't have my own account i would watch him raid. [He was in one of the top guilds in the US during BC /brag]
Once i got my own computer when we went to college we played together, raided together, pvp'd together etc.
He's in BMT right now, but once he's able to and has the time we're going to level characters together in Diablo 3. It'll be nice to do if i'm not able to move in with him during tech school.

A relationship working depends on the individuals, some gamers can date each other, sometimes it doesn't work out.

My husband is a gamer and I was a gamer. I met him not playing games because I didn't have access to computers and consoles being a broke 20 year old. He did though and he played World of Warcraft which I was highly interested in playing. I ended up getting really addicted and he played that game plus many others. I quit playing completely after two years and he as well. He still plays first person games but nothing too serious. I hardly ever touch my computer for anything outside of MFP or work. I just have a bigger interest in going outside and hanging out with people.

Games are awesome but not what they used to be for me! It doesn't hurt our relationship as well as he's more then happy to put down the games and do whatever with me. Plus I'm happy to let him veg out and game when needed. Usually he'll play while I'm cooking dinner.

So yeah! We have nerdy tendencies! I think a lot has to do with personality more then anything. Games are a great conversation piece but go only so far.

I am still looking for my gaming woman. They are hard to find in my area.

I've always dated gamers personally. I met two of my past boyfriends in video games, and one in a gaming chatroom prior to that.
