Now, as abrasive as I may be, good Romus, there is nothing wrong with a little conversion. Although my girlfriend is not a DnD player, she has played Deadlands a time or two. I never pushed the issue, she just likes the setting (original,not d20). She also has a small Warhammer 40K force (Sisters of Battle) that she enjoys painting. We also take turns reading fantasy books to each other (ok, that is a little geeky). Basically, anyone can take an interest in either rpgs or surrounding hobbies, even movies. I just advise not to narrow your search, you may be pleasantly suprised.

Reading all these post of Gamer and relationships stories I see that some of you have already experience before. Its ok to meet a gamer with the same interest,but make sure you already know them, don't always push it, make sure she is not in a realtionship with another person, and have a nice life.

Well, I have had two relationships (technically three, but the third was entirely online). I met all three online. One was on a Star Trek MUSH, 2 were in an IRC channel due to a mutual interest and passion for the same music.
I taught the two I knew in real life D&D and they both joined my weekly D&D game at one point. I'm very passionate about D&D so it tends to rub off or annoy people.
As for the comment about the game suffering....it can. Most people are willing to risk it. In my case it was the other way around....the game broke up my relationship (my gf left me for the new guy I recruited for my D&D game...then the game ended because we were short two members.)

Me thinks I'm lucky to live in Saskatoon. 300,000 people and a few hundred are gamers.. That's pretty good, if you ask me, and there's at least a hundred female gamers here, a dozen or so of which I know personally. So you know, it's not actually hard to find them.
I wouldn't use being a gamer as a requirement, but most groups of people want to be with people that are like them. Christians don't usually date goths, racers rarely marry business people, cops seldom fall in love with gang members, etc. I think that, since Gamers are (Mostly) human beings, we're just as susceptible to the human feeling for wanting to be with people who are like ourselves.
And getting back to what Chricton said in the beginning... That's very true.
Heck, I just started my job as a Security guard a month or two ago, and I've allready found out that 3 of the 5 co-workers I've worked with are Gamers!!! Unfortunately none of them are female yet, but I'm working on it.

Do you have a license to perform these operations, or are you freelancing?
