All I have to say is that I feel sorry for any romantic couple that have a problem roleplaying, in game or not.

Those experiences probably help keep me away from a gaming Con but another thing is that I would go crazy not having enough money to buy everything I would want at one.
...
Don't know about women in general, but for me a man blushing is very.....(nope can't use that word will get odd replies)....um....intriguing, there that will work. Maybe it is an innocence thing, a man that can blush can't be a total jerk.

Dragongirl, after reading those posts, it's almost a shame that I'm NOT single. If I were, you'd have a guy hitting on you on a message board, which, depending on your perspective, might be even creepier than being hit on at Con.

For the record, I've never played with a female gamer at all. I'd give my left arm to, if only as a break from the overblown testosterone of the guys I used to game with.

btw- Tangential topic at best, but... My girlfriend isn't a gamer, but she did get involved with a game of Mage for a while when she was studying in New Zealand. I can't get her into anything more elaborate than Neverwinter Nights here, but when she goes to another country it's a different story. That just seems unfair.

Years? Don't spin your wheels. It doesn't take years to know. But then again that's just my opinion. Good luck with that.

It may not take years for yoyu. For some it might. In any case, there's a whole world of difference betwen knowing, and actually being ready for it.

I'll give conflicting advice - don't rush. There's nothing to be gained by being hasty. Far better to be emotionally and financially ready for it.

I must concur with Canis...Dragongirl is most intriguing.

As for single girls in my game, none so far. I do have a single gay man though...and you should see the others blush when he flirts with them. Very lewd and entertaining

Not sure if I could deal with that in my game. My wife talked about inviting a gay gamer work colleague of hers to my game, which is a typical bunch of heterosexual males. I guess female gamers rarely get flirtatious in round-table games, so probably a gay gamer wouldn't either unless the setting was very relaxed, but still I worry a bit. I know I was a little bit uncomfortable with Angelsboi playing a cute female PC in a PBEM I ran a while back.

She reminds me of one of the designers on the TLC show Trading Spaces.

If I could have my way, I'd marry Amy Winn.

MUHAHAAHHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA!

*gloats since he has a gamer gf *

Now, if only I could convince her to DM, hehe.

Btw, she didn't get into gaming through a boyfriend... her dad is a gamer and all her brothers play, so it was just part of her childhood . Lucky girl, lol. We met "gaming" sort of... we were both on EQ and into the RP end of it. Still can't beleive how lucky I am sometimes .

Heh...a buddy of mine "married" a girl on EQ....turned out "she" was a guy

Of course Female RPG'ers are something akin to the Holy Grail being extremely rare and little more than a myth in the UK,

most male gamers would give their right arm to end up dating or married to someone who shares their love of the hobby..

Then again, according to the stereotype, most male gamers would give their right arm to date anyone

Doubt they could give up their right arms!! I mean that is what most of them use for.......nevermind. Anyway, maybe the left arm though.

sheesh.... sounds like Heaven to me!!! )

It is Heaven

Nothing is better than going out to a romantic dinner and mentioning you picked up Spycraft and she says "I'm not really interesting in another game... I've just been getting into the D&D fantasy gaming" and then proceeds to ask you a bit about it ending up with her saying "That sounds SOOO cool, when can we make up my character"

It is all about luck. She didn't game before she met me at all but wanted to get into some of the interests that took up my spare time... I think she would avoid Cons though for some of the reasons posted in this thread... And since I don't have a decent scanned pic I took a digital snap of her picture on my office wall
