[quote name='KingSpike']I whined to a friend about how I wasn't meeting any girls. He asked me what I was usually doing each day. I said I'd go on a walk each day, go to Safeway to get food, etc etc. Occasionally stop in at the Electronics Boutique downtown (in Spokane, WA). He said "Well fine, then when you see a girl that looks interesting, strike up a conversation. In EB? Ask her if she's heard anything good about the game she's looking at." I said "Yeah...but usually I have my headphones on and I'm listening to music." He then proceeded to yell at me.[/QUOTE]
Okay, so see this is what happened today, lest it be a lesson to anyone i'll delve into it a bit:
-I clean my car.
-I go across the street to browse the CompUSA, kinda nice looking guy pulls up at the same time and is walking towards the door behind me.
-Automatic door denies me. CompUSA is closed for the night.
-Friendly sharing of sighs of, "oh man, it's 6"...and verification that he is kinda nice looking, so there is some smiling going on.
-Both of us pulled out the same direction out of the shopping center and went across the street, him in front of me, and pulled into the Best Buy. (hey, I wasn't stalking, I wanted to check on some lotr's prices and see if they had an anime I've been looking for)
-I go in (after checking myself in the rearview, needed to make sure I didn't have car grime on me from the cleaning) and meander first through the PC section (still can't believe farcry dropped to $20) then the furniture section (damn that's overpriced there) the makeshift PSP section, followed by frowning at kids playing with the light saber (frowning just thinking about it) then to the anime and lotr's checkage (negative on both, but damn I want that collectors rotk
)
moral of the story? There was sooo eye contact on entrace of the best buy. Clearly if he had tracked me down in the store there would have been some conversation...I'm not saying I would've done anything, but I wouldn't have been opposed to it...
so clearly, he must be seeing someone and didn't want to be tempted by my feminine charms, lol. Anyway, if this ever happens to you guys, do continue the flirtation if you get the opportunity. no cell phones or headphones, please.
"Look, let me go back in there and face the peril."
"No, it's too perilous!"
"Look, it's my duty as a knight to sample as much peril as I can"
"No, we've got to find the Holy Grail. Come on"
"Oh, let me have just a little bit of peril?"
"No. It's unhealthy."
"I bet you're gay."

[quote name='KingSpike']Ok, I read the entire thread and now it's point-making time. Hopefully this will be, at most, just a rewordeding of someone else's point And yes, I know that the thread has gotten somewhat off topic =P I've just been lurking around before I started posting
I've noticed people all around saying "I'm not in to girls like that" or "I'm more apt to sit at home and read a book than go to a party." Well, saying things like that are fine...if you want to turn girls away and/or not find any.
I whined to a friend about how I wasn't meeting any girls. He asked me what I was usually doing each day.

He said "Well fine, then when you see a girl that looks interesting, strike up a conversation. In EB? Ask her if she's heard anything good about the game she's looking at." I said "Yeah...but usually I have my headphones on and I'm listening to music." He then proceeded to yell at me.
There's nothing wrong with listening to music while walking around, obviously. I enjoy listening to music and going on walks; it's very soothing and a great way to get excercise. But if I never take off my headphones, I am broadcasting to all potentially interested girls that I have no desire to talk. Not only can I not talk to girls but have you ever seen anyone try to strike up a conversation with someone who is on the phone, listening to music, etc?
I think it's admirable to have convictions and stick by your beliefs, whatever they may be. But if you reduce a girl to "She's a slut" or "She would be incompatible" then there's no way of knowing. Maybe you can convert her to vegitarianism. Or Buddhism. Or whatever. But if you don't get out there, actually talk to people and get to know them then there's no real way of knowing.
Obviously for some of us gamers that isn't an easy thing to do But it comes down to being out of your comfort level temporarily or not finding friends/potential bf or gfs.
Now if only I could take some of my own advice And get myself an avatar/sig...
Oh, and

I think that you can definitely like someone past the 15 minute deadline. I really started to like someone after a few days. Damn I don't even want to think about that time I was crazy for her. Anyway of course it didn't work out, when does it ever work out? I don't understand women and I'm not very predatory so I don't have too many relationships. I'm pretty good looking also but I'm just not out there hitting on girls constantly and trying to get laid, but maybe I should because I could really use it. Anyway I'm picky too and what you have to do is be friends with the girl and be attractive to her. Show interest, sometimes the only way is to steal her once she can see past her current fling. It's easy for girls to be in a relationship so most good looking ones are.

I think it's important to remember the phrase "there are plenty of fish in the sea."
Yes, it certainly does suck if a girl you're interested in rejects you. We've all been through that on some level, I'm sure. It hurts of course. But if you write off all women because that girl that smiled at you once when you hit your head on your locker door has a boyfriend...well that's just foolish.
I had just started hanging out with an ex of mine again. We started getting close, but I'm planning on moving back to my hometown of Denver, CO after I graduate May 8th. That and the fact that I found out she still had the same issue with me that was the reason for our breakup (which made the cuddling/kissing over a 2-3 week period somewhat confusing). Did it hurt? Of course it did. But that shouldn't stop me from moving on and looking for someone else.
If you convince yourself that Girl X will be the greatest thing since sliced bread, you're probably not only making assumptions about who she is (so when you find out who she really is you may be disappointed) but also if you are rejected it will hurt more. If you're interested in someone, ask them out. If they say no, move on. Let things happen when they happen.
Let the Living Force flow through you
Oh, and another thing. If you say things (whether it's to friends, on a message board, wherever) like "I'm so lame" or "I'll never find a girl" that lack of confidence and self esteem really shows through. It affects everything you say and people WILL notice. I'm going to E3 with a website I work for. One of my fellow staffers said "I'm not going...but I doubt anyone will care." If you act negatively and think negatively, only negative people will be around you. If you are positive then positive people (the kind you hopefully want) will be around you.

Just kidding. I've had a couple friends date people where the age difference was quite large. One friend is 24 and dating a 17 year old. Another is 20 and was dating a 30 year old. Now, my parents are 10 years apart so I'm not exactly opposed to the whole wide-age-range thing. But they got married at like 34/44, which makes things different.
In all honesty, I look at an age gap at a younger age (like my 24 year old friend dating a 17 year old) not as "she's mature for his age" but "he is immature for his." Not that he's a ridiculously immature person who acts like a baby...but I wouldn't peg him as a 24 year old person. I'd peg him as a 17 year old person. Coincidentally, he is the person that said "I'm not going to E3...not that anyone cares."
And no, I don't think all 17 year olds are immature or emo =P

Yes, I'm 23. Legal age is 18 here. I think it would be creepy hanging around areas where high school students mingle so that's out of the question. I wouldn't mind a hot older girl if there were any.

Take me to E3 with you.
I'm an admin of www.ddrfreak.com. I can get in to E3 because the owner of the site registered the company as an LLC and so we count as part of the "industry." If you go to the main page you'll see we have news updates. These new updates count for the E3 media pass.
So I have an E3 media pass coming my way =D I used to be Head Admin before I voluntarily stepped down (I wasn't evil, I just felt that I should pass the job on to someone else =P ). The staff has been to E3 twice now before this year and both years I was unable to go. This is going to be my first E3 and I am way more than excited.

UC Santa Cruz? I'm not a hippy and I don't find them appealing. I think people should take baths and women should shave for example. Not all vegans have bad attitudes either. Don't overgeneralize. I could say that all meat eaters like to pollute and cause suffering but I didn't. Well, that's true at least indirectly. Ignorance is not really a valid excuse but most people aren't willing to educate themselves about what their actions do to the world around them.

Funny vegan story, my freshman year of college I lived in the dorms, unfortunately with many vegan\hippies who loved banging on their 
ing bongos nightly with no regard for anyone else. Everyone pretty much just dealt with it for awhile hoping it would stop, but it never did, eventually people asked them nicely to knock it off, they didn't listen and kept right up with it since it was "our rights man".
Finally I got sick of it, so I bought myself a George Foreman grill and started grilling up steaks and sausages in the hallways, and I'll be damned if the leader of the house vegans didn't come up to me within 5 minutes to complain about the smell.
I asked her if she was one of the people banging on those damned bongos, she said she was and I asked if that was the same group of people who had told us to basically off when we asked them to knock it off. Again she said yes. So I told her that she could go herself and everytime I heard bongos I was going to break out the Foreman and cook up more steaks.
Within a week the bongoing had stopped, theers finally took it out/away from the building and into the forest.

Oh I'm not over generalizing, literally every single vegan I've ever met has had a bad attitude.

There are plenty of vegans with good attitudes but you wouldn't know they were vegan unless it came up. Not all vegans are hostile in your face militants. I try to lead by example and if someone wants to know more about veganism etc I'll tell them about it but I don't go around attacking people and forcing my values down their throats. I find that turns people off including many people who would otherwise be sympathetic and interested in veganism, animal rights, etc.
Also I wouldn't always believe what a hippy type claims they are. Some of them are the biggest flakes around and just because they say they are vegan or something else doesn't mean they actually are. Like the girls who go around saying they're vegetarian and how much they love animals but then will say oh I'm vegetarian but I sometimes eat "insert random rotting flesh here".

[quote name='jimbodan']Funny vegan story, my freshman year of college I lived in the dorms, unfortunately with many vegan\hippies who loved banging on their ing bongos nightly with no regard for anyone else. Everyone pretty much just dealt with it for awhile hoping it would stop, but it never did, eventually people asked them nicely to knock it off, they didn't listen and kept right up with it since it was "our rights man".
Finally I got sick of it, so I bought myself a George Foreman grill and started grilling up steaks and sausages in the hallways, and I'll be damned if the leader of the house vegans didn't come up to me within 5 minutes to complain about the smell.
I asked her if she was one of the people banging on those damned bongos, she said she was and I asked if that was the same group of people who had told us to basically off when we asked them to knock it off. Again she said yes. So I told her that she could go herself and everytime I heard bongos I was going to break out the Foreman and cook up more steaks.
Within a week the bongoing had stopped, theers finally took it out/away from the building and into the forest.[/QUOTE]

all you guys have it wrong. ive been in a relationship for 3 years now, but before that i found the best girls were the ones that were in a relationship but unhappy with their boyfriend. you know the type. probably been dating for a year or so, but ready for a change and just looking for the right excuse to leave the convenient relationship behind.
see, if a girl is single, you have to be a better option than every single man this girl comes across. no easy feat, especially for someone who spends their time reading video game message boards.
however, when i a girl is dating some guy named, say, Frank.... Well, all you have to do is be better than Frank. This is infinitely easier.
The last two girls I've dated were in relationships when I've met them and my current girlfriend was in a relationship for two years before meeting me.
This solves the problem of all the good girls being taken, and weeds out the crazies that no one wants to date.
edit: horrible spelling.

So true. When girls are in relationships they don't like they tend to bitch incessantly. Just listen to what they say and do/dont do it accordingly.
Make every negative comment she says into something good about you.
"Frank didn't want to go to the movies with me"
"Awe, what a meany, if you were with me we'd go to the movies all the time"
Don't say 'hes aing stupid ass loser'. Just mention in passing that you do things differently with your women.

[quote name='Collectordragon']I appreciate the advice but most of the advice doesn't really apply to me. See I'm a strict vegetarian and it takes a very long time to find like-minded girls and on top of that be attracted to them or have anything in common etc. Plus I'm a prude, and don't drink, or do drugs. I have very little in common with most people. So, it's always annoying when I finally meet a girl like myself and she always turns out to have a bf.[/QUOTE]
I think you should at least be open to people who have different tastes or hobbies otherwise you will keep on looking for a long time and most likely not be too happy at any point. It's hard enough to find someone that you can click with out of all the people that are out there as it is, but when you start with a checklist of wants and don't even give anyone a chance untill you get the bottom of your list you have eliminated the vast majority of the people out there.
On a side note, it's usually more fun to be with someone that isn't a carbon copy of you because it keeps things interesting

[quote name='Collectordragon']lol If she eats bacon and fish she's not a vegetarian. I've met girls like that before. I'm vegetarian except when I eat bacon, fish, hotdogs, human livers, etc.[/QUOTE]
not to sound rude, but do you lean more towards vegan? Also, as it's been said before in some way or form, it's ok to not be "perfect" all the time, life it too short to sweat every little detail. However, I don't mean that in a disrespecting way if you true believe that being a vegetarian is what is right for you, it is not my place to throw stones at you if you follow

[quote name='Collectordragon']I'm not really into partying that much. I like doing things that are more intellectually stimulating and there's the whole alcohol thing. I do go to parties sometimes though and have even been to vegetarian ones. ...And no there were no single girls at them.[/QUOTE]
I think that has more to do with numbers, how many people came to that party, now compare that to another non-themed party that might be going on with your peers. My guess is that the other party has more people at it, so there would be a greater chance of meeting a single girl.
Also, out of all these girls whom are you friends that have boyfriends, are their boyfriends all vegatarian too?

I just don't follow your logic, simply being at a party where things you may choose not to partake in doesn't mean it you don't have to be there. I dunno perhaps I'm just a little more laid back about some things
