What's the best way to meet girls that play video games?

[MikeyObrien]

And don't say in videogames because most people don't use microphones let alone announce their gender in games. Dating apps don't work. I don't meet any girls in real life that play games. I'm curious what y'all think Is a good place to meet gamers of the opposite sex.

I meet quite a few in real life who play video games. It's like 40% of gamers now are female. Try the local retro arcades/second hand stores, somewhere that gamers congregate. The last APRN I was playing with was from a half marathon I did a couple weeks ago. She was doing the full... said she'd seen me at the prior race... we got to talking... blah blah blah. That was a location that had nothing to do with gaming, but like I said, with so many gamers being female you're probably meeting quite a few and just not knowing they game, so the more you meet overall the better. Also scan meetups or similar sites for existing groups/events in your area

Are you looking for a gamer friend or a relationship? Women don't care that you like playing Call of Duty like them too. Your approach is very poor and will get you friend zoned if you're looking for a relationship with this gamer girl.

But if you're just looking for a woman to simp over while you're in the friendzone and be called pet names by her then I guess that's fine for you.

Are you kidding? Majority of the men I used to talk to I met through gaming lol so many women have their mics on it’s just they’re not on there treating it like a dating app.

[MikeyObrien]

Really? What games? I play like 3 hours a day minimum and it's almost all no mics

[MikeyObrien]

And yeah, that's why I haven't gone to reddit or anything to look for them, I am worried about l9oking creepy.

I play a variety, no shooter games like COD mainly RPGs that may not be very popular, like Fallout 76, Back 4 blood, GTA (rarely), Texas chainsaw massacre

[MikeyObrien]

I play a bit of everything. And yeah I play back for blood too. Nobody ever has a mic on... I don't know maybe it's cause I play on playstation 5?

[MikeyObrien]

Also there were girls on vr chat that I saw but all of them were being hounded by horny men so I didn't wanna make them uncomfortable by adding to the attention

[Opinion Owner]

The women always get hounded unfortunately lol but maybe we are just having different experiences because I always have mic on or hear other girls and we’ll chat a bit. I’m not sure if being on ps5 makes a difference because you can still connect with people who are on 4, my friends and I are always in parties together

[MikeyObrien]

I wonder if them hearing another girls voice in the chat makes them more likely to wanna talk vs if it's a guy.

[Anonymous]

I don't know. I don't know any girls who play video games.

[MikeyObrien]

I've met very few in the past. And they are never single.

[Opinion Owner]

The "gamer" girls I know only play animal crossing and the sims.

[MikeyObrien]

Yeah that's the other struggle.

[Chayce]

+1 on The Sims & Animal Crossing being all they play.

[Opinion Owner]

My girl loves The Sims and I don't get it. If you don't tell a grown ass man to go to the bathroom he pisses on the floor? Really bro?

[Lisia]

You can meet girls through games lol

[MikeyObrien]

What games do you think would be the best for that?

[Lisia]

Valorant, Among us, fortnite, league of legends, minecraft, overwatch, animal crossing, Call of duty, ...

[Lyndsielee666]

I met my man on a game 🤔

[MikeyObrien]

he's a Lucky guy.

[Lyndsielee666]

Most the girls I’ve met on Fortnite use mics 🤷🏻‍♀️ you can try that one if you’re into it

[jahaims]

I have female friends I met through gaming
