+1. Wasn't that hard, but wasn't that easy either.
Difficulty level would probably be on Medium setting for someone like me.

Comment has been collapsed.
im a gamer and i have a girlfriend for over a year now. I give video games my attention when shes not around and when she is around she gets all my attention, its a perfect balance.

Ah, the good old stereotype, the gamer living in his parent's basement. Well, my PC is on the first floor of MY OWN house where I live with my girlfriend.
Just turn off your PC/console once a week and go out, you'll find what you're looking for ;)

Apparently, I think the question should be "If you are bad/awkward in social situations is it hard to get a girlfriend".
Not sure how gaming relates, most girls don't even know I am into gaming until way later....

As of right now no girlfriend, my ex was a gamer girl who plays on Steam a lot tho, I like to think that i'll find love one day.

Being a "gamer" has nothing to do with it... Because, let's face it, most guys play video games more or less, and more and more girls are starting to play, too.
However! If you are that kind of guy that stays awake at night to play games, gets a shower every 2 or 3 days, rarely does anything other than playing and drinks mountain dew and eats doritos or whatever... then yes. you will have a problem with girls. not because you are a gamer, but because you are.. unattractive.
I'll put it in a RPGish kinda way.
Everything "stereotypical fat gamer"-like is -5. Everything "tru alpha male" is +5. You start with 0 attactiveness.
You excercise? +5! You tell great stories and make everyone laugh at parties? +5! You won a snowboarding contest 2 years ago? +5!
You shower every 2 or 3 days? -5! You are completely tasteless when it comes to clothing/you wear "LMG LOL RIOT <3 <insert character name here> shirt all the time? -5!
that gives you 5 attactiveness, which is above 0, which means you can get a girl. Don't aim for supermodelbitchykind however.
tl;dr being a gamer has nothing to do with it, but being fat/boring/generally unattactive does. (I say it because it often goes together with being a gamer)

I sometimes stay awake at night to play games, in the past more than these days. I don't shower every day unless I feel uncomfortable (like in the summer I gotta shower at least twice per day). I mostly eat and drink unhealthy stuff and I'm on computer about 99% of my time awake. I would avoid anything "tru alpha male" with my life, I hate sports and parties. I have had a girlfriend for 5 years who has done nude modeling. She doesn't play, she prefers to watch as I play games.
Generalizing simply isn't good here. People don't need to hear what you're trying to say. Instead, everyone deserves hope <3

Well what Im trying to say that people sometimes blame the fact that they cant get a girl on "being a gamer" while actually its just them being generally unattractive.
uuh I always have a hard time explaining people what I mean.
lets try again
being a gamer or not is not a factor
being attartive or not is
an interesting guy who plays a lot has the same chances as an interesting guy who didnt play anything in his life.
BTW sure, hope is good. except for if someone goes all "I want Selena Gomez to be my waifu" and, to everyone's suprise, she doesn't react to him posting a comment on her fanpage and he starts talking stuff like "girls are stupid and they all only like douchebags" :I

maybe its hard for some gamers to get a gf. but thats not couse he s a gamer its couse his self. i m a gamer and i m married . biggest problem i think is a lot of gamers dont have reallife and dont go out to have fun. if you dont go out its hard to find a girlfriend.

I've never had a serious girlfriend, but I'm not too much of a gamer anyway. I just got onto Steam just a few months ago, and I don't think it changes anything. I do have a decent enough social life, just generally uninterested in romantic relationships.

I do not have a girlfriend...I have a wife AND a 11month old daughter ;-)

To the ignorant people saying that there aren't a lot of girl gamers. Just so you know they did a study and found that 45% of gamers are Female. 31% of gamers are females over 18. While only 19% are young boys. Its just vocal minority. If you're wondering why you likely don't see girls in games, thank your sexist friend. I wouldn't talk either if I was a girl, because as soon as you do you hear "go back in the kitchen" "make me a sandwich", and people who just obsess over the fact that a female is playing. So I'm betting most females either play offline or don't use a mic.

well, maybe lack of girls in your guilds have something to do withattitude he mentioned? Generally as guilds require a lot of communications if you had a "go make me a sandwich" comments they just looked for other more mature guilds? Because to tell you the truth in 7 years of hardcore MMO playing I've met a lot of girls. In my latest guild it was like 30% of them, and I played with a lot of them through WOW, SWTOR and GW2.

Well, to tell the truth the percentage is probably lower (cannot view your link, it's broken, but read similar studies), as these studies tend to tag "gamer" as anyone who happens to play any games. And you wouldn't necessary call your mom playing solitaire on her Windows, FarmVille on FB and Angry birds on her SmartPhone an actual gamer.
Nonetheless there are really plenty of gamer girls nowadays - it's no longer a freaking 90s. If you go to any video-game convention (or even fantasy/anime con having video-games program as well) you will see that at least 20-25% of attendants nowadays are females. To tell the truth it's actually how I met my soon-to-be-wife ;p

AND that is part of why I refuse to multiplayer/co-op. I would much rather avoid that BS altogether. I am content to play single player or co-op with the bf. (the other reasons being that I am just introvert and to shy to do it, and also because I am a player who likes to take their time and enjoy the game, not rush to the next boss to try to finish the game ASAP). And until I settle into a place, I prefer to also keep my sex unknown and avoid doing anything that would make it obvious I am a female. It is to avoid that sexist minority, because I have dealt with enough that bs in real life, I do not want to deal with it in my gaming, which is supposed to be fun and relaxing and my escape.

What you need to find is a good gamer girl best friend that will rip someone a new one when they toss out annoying comments and sit back and laugh. I had the same problem until I met her, been gaming with her for 6 years now. We end up talking smack about guys or make plans to be on the same team and do nothing but gun for the smart mouthed guy in skype. But that's just my twisted way of thinking if you open your mouth and are mean, you deserve what you get. lol
