Would you want to date a video gamer? ๐
I'm not interested in dating, but if I was, it would heavily depend on how involved with it he was. I dated two, and while one was not an issue, the other was literally addicted to them. He was constantly glued to them every time they were near him (commonly spent about 12 hours per day on them), it was like pulling teeth to get him off of them even if it meant we were going to be late somewhere, and they interfered with his relationships (including family) and responsibilities, as well as his life in general (he got a very late start to life due to wasting years on the games and not putting any effort towards building a future). Having a pastime is great, but it's never good to let it control your life and get in the way of other, more important things. I have things I love and am passionate about to, but there is a time and a place for those things.
He'd also ignore everyone's phone calls and texts, and ignore people who were right there with him. I remember feeling very hurt when he would get short with me for just wanting to talk to him (and he would get even more hateful with his own family), and even rolled his eyes at me when I was hurting one night over the loss of a pet (now, it pisses me off and I deeply regret not at the very least giving him a piece of my mind and leaving), all because I was interrupting his game. It was like a giant middle finger to my face as far as I was concerned, and I felt so unloved. I'm ashamed I put up with that crap for a second.
The second kept it as a pastime and there was never an issue. I definitely don't mind guys enjoying games, but would not want to deal with someone with an addiction to it again (same with an addiction to anything, really).
I swear I see it asked at least once a week on here. I'd love to date a fellow gamer!
The feeling just doesn't seem to be mutual 🤦โโ๏ธ
I do know this much: I refuse to date a non-gamer, or a guy that doesn't like video games. I tried before? It didn't end well (he thought me playing video games was stupid)
I didn't think this kind of question would pop up often! My apologizes for being unoriginal here ๐
I can see why you'd want to date a video gamer if it's one of your main passions and hobbies in life! To date someone who's not interested in that, is like asking for an eternal mightmare!
Sorry to burst your bubble, lol
Yeah trust me, this question has been asked to death on here- especially by guys!
I don't even expect him to play the same game as I do. He can play his game; I'll play mine... we'll cuddle afterwards, lol
Sure! He can tank or heal while I dps.
Funny story- I once met a guy that got upset I refused to heal him and I only wanted to be a dps-
... yeah, really ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
He preferred dainty, feminine women and wanted someone he could protect- in a video game. He didn't like I played melee classes.
Yeah we're no longer speaking, lol
If you both like a hobby, might as well. At least you have things in common you can do together.
Another way to ask it, could be... if your a gamer would you date a non-gamer?
Funny side story though, a few years back... had a co-worker who loved WoW who married a guy who loved it, they had a bunch of kids... whole family gaming constantly. I don't know how they managed to have like six kids when they were always gaming. Anyhow she got fired for calling in sick for raids.
Don't let any hobby become an addiction and your fine and I would have no issue with it.
I've fallen out of love with video games. I just want to be more productive with my life. Over the next few months I'm going to try to figure out how to make more money and really just ditch games altogether. Besides I want to spend all my time with my honey experiencing new things in life. Video games imho just hold us back from progress

I am currently but I'm not a gamer though. I find it cute how into it he gets, he and his buddy have a long standing Friday night gaming session and he's taking a week off work in March when a game is released lol it's a big deal.
I really don't mind, he has fun and sometimes I play with him at his request (haha, not a pretty sight I assure you 🙃)
Love video games boyfriend and I play together all the time a PVP eachover in GTA, Red Dead Online, minecraft, play together on fortnite Apex or against play together in started and maybe Bloodborne and talk if we are not in a server together or in the same game
Don't mind someone who is an occasional gamer, maybe a couple times a week. But if it's everyday and it takes up most of their spare time then no thanks.
This is like watching movies, or any other leisure time. It depends on how much time you put on it.
I like gaming from time to time. But, for example, daily it would be too much for me. I simply have more interesting things to do that could improve my life for real.
The last guy i dated was one. It wasn't a problem for me. He still always made time for me, his family, he worked full time, and always had a lot of chores. A truly busy guy but somehow still managed to spend a lot of time playing video games lol, i admired him a lot.
Yeah if that's his hobby that's fine. As long as he's not playing them 24/7 and makes time for me then I'm not concerned about what he does during his free time as long as it isn't something illegal or something horrible like murdering kittens
I don't play video games but I've dated guys who play video games. And it's honestly great lmao they usually spend weekend playing video games instead of partying so I don't have to worry about other bitches hitting on my man when I'm not there 😂
I'd date a gamer If he's not addicted, I love videogames too, so I'd be happy to play and make jokes with him, but if he cannot leave his PS4 (for example), it would be a bad partner for me. Yeah, I like to play and to learn about my partners, but we can't spend the whole day burning our eyes in front of the screen of your PS4 which is about to explode because of overuse.
Marvelous idea lmao
I am one, so yes. As long as they aren't SJW's. I'll know judging on their reaction to The Last of Us II.
Yeah, If they can teach me how to play, they can't just be like "leave me alone um playing games" and be up yelling all night playing it ya know?
When i was into it in high school and college, yes. But I've grown out of that stage. I probably game two weeks a year now if even that
Depends some different factors when it comes to gaming.
Little to comon with addiction and totally skip most of real life.
Like Penny in The big bang theory when she got gaming addiction.
Yeah, as long as he also likes and prioritise being physically active, then I can play games with him sometimes and he can join me on long walks/hike trips :)
If I met a woman who is a gamer? Sure, it'd be interesting seeing as I make custom maps, mods, and models for games I play. Not to mention I've been dabbling in Unreal Engine 4 attempting to make my own games. Does that make me a gamer?
of course, as long as im more important to him than videogames
I am married to one.
Unfortunately i dont play video games.
Sure as long as he has time for me and doesn't neglect me and the relationship.
I really hope I find a gamer! โค๏ธ
Video games are one of the most important things to me. I love technology and art, and so many games put them together in a way that can easily bring joy.
I canโt imagine why someone would have a problem dating a video gamer. As long as they take care of their responsibilities first I donโt see anything wrong with it. Everyone has things they like to do in their free time
I have lot of hobbies but I am a gamer, and I've dated 16 women and I married one of them
Yes. My boyfriend and I are both gamers and streamers on twitch. Itโs a prettty awesome thing to have in common with your partner.
Seems like females are 50/50 on it. I guess it just depends on how much time is spent and if they prioritize gaming as number one all the time.
Yes she is one of my idea woman, nothing scream sexy like a hot girl who can rock the gaming remote control.
@Aysen I would date a video gamer because I enjoy playing video games. By dating a video gamer, I could develop a bond over shared video game genre (s).
yes but oddly enough i find i have very little in common with girls who play video games they ike different games than i do and we have nothing to talk about
If it doesn't consume their whole day, yes. Only because I like to join in haha :D
Yeah of course. I also play video games and I'd be happy to play with her.
My girlfriend plays video games and I don't much but love watching her play so yeah
I like games too, if she keeps it in balance and it's not too much time and not too much affect on her life, then I don't see a problem.
Yes, because then they can understand how I think better and also most girls who play videogamea are pretty or cute or hot.
Probably not. Iโve donโt that before and it was a very bad experience. He was in front of the TV all the time and we didnโt get to do much together.
one bad experience doesn't represent the rest of us. just saying
Unless you want to settle (and I mean HEAVILY settle) keep gaming instead of doing other things. Women don't date gamers for a reason.
Nah. I'm not a gamer and I wouldn't want to date a girl who is.
Most of them are the complete opposite views of mine even though i am one myself but if we had similar values of course
hmmmm only an occasional gamer maybe
Its unattractive but i might if he had what im looking for in a man.
I mean no because I'd hate it if I'd not get enough attention!🙊
Yes we'd play games together on our dates :)
one of my ideal men😆
I'd only date a gamer. If she isn't on consoles/pc, I'm not interested.
Iโm a gamer myself so definitely!
As an avid gamer myself, Yes
I would love to, because I'm a gamer myself. 😂
I hope he loves them as much as I do
Yes, gamer girls are awesome 😎😍
I guess so. Possibly.
Already am โค๏ธ
Love You, @Dnice1 โค๏ธ
Since I'm one, that would be the jackpot.
I am, and I am one myself!
I'm a game developer, enough said, I suppose.
I already do โบ๏ธ
Absolutely, but girl gamers are hard to find!
Yes I am one myself
OMG. I have a daughter. This is hilarious.
Of course~!!
Iโd instantly wife a gamer girl 🎮 😍🥰😘💍
I already am.
Sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
