I married a gamer. Smile

I started playing on-line games just so he would talk to me.

'Gamer' is a prerequisite title for any chick I date. Gaming and guns are the only real hobbies I have right now, so...yeah. Razz

Heh - article title '1 in 10 MMO players get physical'. Subtitle: "OK mostly cybor with a hairy guy from hoboken, but its better than nothing"

They did research to show that someone is more likely to go out with someone else if they did something fun together beforehand. Aye carumba.

Studies like this usually mean squat, sampling and self report issues generally mean you get a pretty distorted picture. Particularly when it comes to things like young men and how often they get lucky.

I doubt I would have married Elie if she wasn't a Gamer Girl. Cool

Talus introduced me to Star Craft. He thought I was just feigning interest...until he had to kick me out of his apartment so he could get some sleep. "No really, just give me a few more minutes to play." heh Smile
