Go back to reddit and take your rage faces with you.

I've met about half the people I've dated at cons. I already told the most interesting story, about how I was Quistis and I ended up dating a Squall cosplayer, in another thread.

>>7050244

>2013
>thinking those faces come from Reddit

I hate this fucking world.

>>7050211
In another thread I talked about how I saw a really cute girl at my first con but I was so beta I couldn't even walk up and talk to her. The next con I go to I don't plan on making the same mistake, feeling like this has to be worse than feeling bad if a girl said no.

Conventions are pretty much the only time I get to be properly social, so I've met not just my partners but also my friends through conventions. I met my current boyfriend since we were both cosplaying from the same series. I was his favourite female character and he was my favourite male character.

Already told of my adventures in con speed dating several times on here, but I guess I could tell it again if anyone wants.

That said, I took a girl I'm dating lately to a smaller local con and she had a really good time, even though it was on a Sunday and her first time. Right now she's pumped for another con I'm taking her to in a few months. I'm just not looking forward to having to scare off neckbeards again, since they were all trying to hit on her at that smaller con. Are kigurumis hated? Since I might get her a pikachu one since she loves pikachu and it not revealing much kinda discourages creepers.

>>7050262
>it not revealing much kinda discourages creepers
Unfortunately that doesn't help.

>>7050252

Go back to /v/ and take your manly tears faces with you

>>7050264
Damn. She's a bit busty and she got some creepy old man asking for pictures "for art reference" at that smaller con, so I figured it'd at least help stop some from thinking "OMG BOOBS"

I'm also not looking forward to her playing MTG in the tabletop room since one of the tabletop staffers really wants to sleep with me and is incredibly dramatic about things.

>>7050252
I know they don't, but they belong there now.

I've never even made a friend at a con.

Daddy falcone's available, ladies.

I dated a guy I met at a con once who was cosplaying from the same series as me. It didn't work out.

>>7050305
what

Did once, but then I realized she was a total pleb and a total loser.
>believes in animal spirits
>paranoid as shit
>steals shit at cons and white trash retail stores
>being a Dominican
Ya, glad I broke up with her over the phone when she was at CTcon. That was hilarious.

>did you meet your other half at the conventions?
I met my current boyfriend at small convention. He was just dressed up as a character from a game I had just started playing so I took his picture.

It turned out he had just moved to the area so he posted in the "social networking" thread that was on the forums and we added each other on facebook.

A couple years later we started playing Steam games together and really hit it off when we noticed we had similar interest in movies, games and anime. Now we've been together for about a year and half.

I also met my first boyfriend not at a convention but at a meetup I hosted and advertised via a convention forum.

>>7050262

We have been dating for almost 3 years now. Sorry if it's all over the place. I'm very tired right now

I was at gencon last week and I saw a lot of couples cosplaying: mostly both dressed in black with the guy held on a leash by his catgirl - what is that from? Because I saw several doing about the same thing.

we didn't exactly "meet" at a con. let me explain
>be a girl playing tf2
>people are assholes to me when i use my mic
>accuse me of being a preteen boy
>get fed up with it
>try a canadian server because stereotypically polite

>excellent times were had

needless to say we're both gigantic nerds and i am a closet weeb. we went to otakon together later that year. it was awesome. since then we've gone to acen too and hopefully we'll go to anime north next year. we've been together for almost 3 years now and he's a total sweetheart.

I live in a very small circuit cosplay community. You can go to the same convention every year and expect to see almost everyone that you saw the year before; with the addition of some new people and the absence of some old.

My current boyfriend I had met three years prior, but never actually spoke with him in a conversation. The first year (my first time cosplaying) I had dragged him into a group picture of 'cute boys' that I had rounded up and posed with. I posted the picture to my facebook but never found out who he was. However the picture stuck with me and I always hoped for the chance to be able to speak with him again.

This year (March) I was going through really bad issues with my ex LDR. He was being very cruel to me, and it put me in a bad place since I don't have many irl friends. I didn't have a job, no extra activities, and I was done with my B.A. so the opportunity to make friends was very limited. And while I had convention friends, they all lived hours away.
My ex just made me feel very isolated, lonely, and the things he said made me feel like shit about myself. I gained 30 pounds while dating him and I remember thinking how hideous I was in my lolita outfit for the convention.
Anywho...
I spotted the cute guy in a crowd when passing through a hallway and I instantly clung onto a familiar face. I asked him if he had remembered me from a couple years before and he did after thinking about it for a minute. I even pulled up the picture on my smartphone and showed him.
He seemed very open to talk with me and I was more than happy to accept the attention. In the back of my mind I had felt a little guilty because I hadn't broken up with my ex at that point, but I just felt fucked over by him so many times that I just wanted to be happy for one weekend even if it was vindictive.

We wound up talking for six hours in the hallway--people watching and asking each other questions, and occasionally posing for pictures. (con't)

>>7051566
So anyway, between some minor flirting I wound up getting his number.

And ofc shortly after that my manipulative ex started to see that he was losing me and kicked up a shitstorm for weeks stretching well into April. You know, instead of actually fixing the problems between us it's just better to blame me for everything. He even brought the drama to 4chan and threatened to an hero if I didn't take him back. Called me a bunch of derogatory names when it didn't work. Whatever.

Officially started going out with qt dude on 4/20. Our relationship is really nice, and mainly because he's a really nice person. We share a lot of interests and enjoy the same things. I've even lost that horrid 30 pounds I put on while I was with my ex. His friends really like me, and he says that they say I'm really good for him.
It's just nice to finally feel like I fit in.

>>7051553
>make friends with players that dominate me
;)

>>7051574
lol yeah it's even funnier now that we're dating. we still make jokes along those lines.

>>7051570
aww, im glad that story had a happy ending! good for you, anon. sorry about your shitty ex. i've been there.

>>7051521
This makes me feel really fuzzy :D

>Katsucon2011

>Meet at Animazement 2011
>She seems cool, not pursuing because of girl from Katsu2011
>rekindle friendship in 2013
>hang outside of cons, it was nice
>Go to otakon and she gets possessive even though we arent a really a couple
>Turns out to be a complete Narcissistic lying Cunt
>Can't stand that shit, Extremely upset I let it go as far as it did
>Broke off all contact, only way it was gonna be

Thats all. Still hoping the qt and I can have a go but not holding my breath.
I dunno man. One day Maybe ill find somebody I can try the long term thing with. Just havent really met the right kind of person, Other than Katsu2013girl.

Sure did, he was cosplaying the same character that I was (mine being the genderbend ^^;).

>>7051570

The only girls I meet at cons always turn out to be crazy and basically interested in me because I'm not a neckbeard, am average looking and enjoy "nerdy" things.

Why me ;_;

>>7051744
The girls I meet fit into two categories:
They are either Single and Far, far away
Or
They live close by and have boyfriends

>tfw cursed to be forever alone by bad luck and location

Since this is tangentially related to the thread, what are some things that I should not do to
avoid being creepy when approaching girls at cons?

>>7051744
>>7051749
Don't worry. were bound to find somebody perfect for us.

Or we can all just meet up and get gay~

>>7051752
HI NICE PANTIES
I LOVE YOU
PLEASE RESPOND

>>7051752
Walk up to the girl, hand her some money, wink at her and let things go from there.

That or talk about something you've picked up that she enjoys (easy if she's in cosplay, but look for stuff like phone cases, t-shirts, bags, ect with stuff on them). If she's in cosplay, compliment it.

>>7051754
LOL, I actually laughed.

>>7051749
I have a bit of that problem too, but the former types usually are into me for a week then get upset when I show any interest back.

>friend's friend hanging out with our group instead of his usual friend group because his ex was there
>con is cold as fuck, hang out alone together inside while friends go outside to do a photoshoot
>get along really well, as if we've known each other for years
>asked me out after the con

Nothing too dramatic, but we have a great relationship. I love not having to hide/tone down my weeaboo shit.

>>7051744
I feel you, bro. It turns out the ability to hold a conversation and make direct eye contact is an omega level aphrodisiac for girls at cons. It's not fair that most of them are cray like Dre on vacay.

Gunsmith Cats is crap. If you're the only one who knows about it at the con then you're probably like 40, single, fat, balding, and have no business being surrounded by teenagers.

So how many people have had a Dramacon style experience? Refering to the shitty original english language manga in which a girl is dragged to a con by her boyfriend then proceeds to dump him for a much hotter guy.

That stupid story is why I will never take my girlfriend to a con.

I met a guy at a con last summer, and still don't know why we didn't hook up. We were dressed from the same series, we were hugging, taking pictures with each other, he offered out his arm as we walked around the halls, we were really talking and not just making awkward noises at each other. At one point he mentioned going back to his hotel room for a snack so I asked, "Want to show me your room?" I thought I was being very obvious in my intents...but he said something about having room mates. I told him I'd be at the hotel bar for an hour before the dance but he didn't show up for a drink.

How much more obvious does a girl have to make it that she wants to blow a guy??

>>7051845
Any high quality men at cons are always taken. You'll be fine.

>>7050211
Bitch please. Our anime club's eboard and their helpers cosplayed the entire human cast of Evangelion for Halloween, including some angels, and most of the college-age club members had no idea what that was. It was a saddening experience.

>date someone from /cgl/
>end up getting cheated on and lied to for almost 2 years

cool story right
Don't be like me gulls. When people tell you something's up, they're probably telling you the truth. Don't let the guy dismiss it so easily.

>>7051802
A lot of girls find my sense of humor and personality really cute for some reason. This weirds me out since that was the sort of stuff that got me tons of shit in high school. They also think I have wonderful hair.

It always suck that only AFTER the con do I find out that they're annoying, clingy and more cray than this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6cMk24vecI

>>7051914
A lot of guys are afraid of taking things the wrong way and scaring off girls by making it look like they think that they're easy.

But yeah, I can understand why he'd say something about roommates. They always make things complicated.

>>7051924
OH SSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT OH SHIIII!T :DD::D:D: DELICIOUS TODD / PIPLUP DRAMA :D

WHO DID TODD CHCEAT ON YOU WITH? VOLDESLUT OR TENSLUT? :D

>>7051924
That's what you get for letting a fugly gook put his yellow semen inside you just because you felt white guilt for him.

>>7051948
Not anybody who goes to /cgl/, I don't think. Conventions though, yes. I don't blame the girl because she was totally lead on (I read their facebook convos) and she didn't know anything about me. She was pissed when she did find out, and I chose not to believe her because I was a fucking moron. That's all I'm gonna say.

And Voldemort and Tenleid are both sweethearts and good friends to me.

>>7051964
>only blaming Todd
>"the girl was completely innocent!"
Typical Canadian slut.

>>7051924
Who did you dated? Was he hot at least?

>>7051979
She dated Todd.

He's the prick who shot Drew Sharp during the train heist, if you remember correctly.

>>7052148
Oh man I remmeber onw...that fucking PRICK CUNT

I cried so much when he shot web.

>>7052190
Todd means Death in german.

>>7054240

No go home.

>>7055526
But I already am home

>>7055564
No you're drunk go home

>>7055675
BUT I ALREADY AM HOME WHAT DO I DO NOW

How easy is it to just hook up and have one night stands at cons?

>>7055937
The odds are good, but the goods are still odd as fuck.

the last boy i dated i met at an anime convention. at another anime convention one of his female friends was hitting on me/us and i begged him into a 3-way.
i found out after one of the main reasons he didn't want to was because she's a con slut who sleeps with 1-3 guys every night of a con and used to be a drug addict. i was mortified. that's something you tell your GF before, not after. oh well, she had a good body.

but anyway, now they're dating
~ never give up on con love ~

>>7055943
ha

>OP's pic

GTFO grandpa, no one cares about your ancient animu at these cons.

Girls, tell me, how can you tell whether someone is interested in you or not? These kind of things kinda go over my head since I'm usually a touchy-feely person at cons (meaning lots of nonsexual hugging.)

>>7055962
You dun goofed.

>tfw 21 year old kissless virgin

WILL I FIND THE ONE AT A CON /cgl/?

>>7056102
tell me about it
never fuck a con slut. it's never a good idea.

I met my bf online right before a convention, and said I wanted to meet up (DtK to my Liz Thompson, thought it would be cute in pictures) and told him to find me. Gave him a picture and we didn't even get to con before we started dating haha
Now it's almost 2 years and we just work awesome together. I think we both needed it, really.

I didn't meet my man at a con, but we've been going to Fanime together for 3 years in a row now and it's always wonderful.
We aren't together every second (we are usually in a large group that frequently separates into smaller factions), but it is so much fun to have a bf who gets my nerdiness and who will be excited about cons with me. I can't imagine what it must be like to date someone who's either indifferent about it or doesn't like it at all.

I met my last two boyfriends at cons. Both unfortunately LDRs and I ended both amicably (we still talk) but...

At Katsu 2013 I ran into a guy in an awesome costume from a series I liked and told him I'd be in a costume from the same series the next day. Next day comes and we get to shoot. Near the end he asks if we can do a little fan service. I'm all "I don't ship this, yo, but I don't mind I guess" and we kiss. At this point I thought he was gay or at least bi...
Turns out his roommates were friends of friends so we all went out to dinner and he was discretely texting me, asking if I wanted to talk some more. He was super cute and we liked the same things so we ended up talking until maybe 4 in the morning. We agreed to go out (very hasty...) and exchanged contacts. The first week was super great, we just talked about cosplay, shit we were watching, and a few memorable ones where I was talking him through Dark Souls (A+ phone date). Though he started getting a little ahead of himself and was talking about moving in together, spending a shit ton of money to visit, lots of super lovey-dovey stuff, and all sorts of things that would be cute after a year or two, but not after a week. I told him to cool it because I was getting uncomfortable and he agreed, but he didn't. I enjoyed talking about our mutual interests, but he'd always break into 'relationship talk' and I started to not answer the phone. After about two months I decided this was one of those cases where we'd REALLY do better as friends, so I called him up to break up and he was basically begging me not to... That conversation sucked.

Afterwards I told him that I think he's totally great and I really respect him as a cosplayer, etc so I really wanted to be friends. I still skype chat him when I see something I think he'd like. Unfortunately, every time that happens, he tries to segue into "maybe if we were back together..."

>>7056231
cont.

I feel like he thinks I'm just playing hard to get and if he pushes hard enough, I'll go out with him again. He's normally a great guy but that really makes me want to knee him in the groin or something...

I'd love to cosplay with him, but I whenever I suggest something from a series that he's also watching, he says "I'd definitely do that with you if we were together" etc and I just... no.

Luckily he's nowhere near some of the crazy ex's in here, but I really wish we had just been friends. It makes me sad that he seems to want an all-or-nothing relationship... Mega turn-off right there.

>>7051924

>>7056203

>so ronery
Anon, maybe this will be the year for us. Maybe work on our flirting techniques or something.

>>7056203
Yes, all you have to do is start a trip here.

>>7056203
Maybe, are you attractive? do you smell bad? Are you creepy? Do you weigh 300+lbs? Are you able to make a girl smile with funnies?
These are things you must consider.

>>7056422
>>7056203
It's not that hard. There are plenty of girls at conventions who find being able to hold a conversation and eye contact to be some sort of omega-level aphrodisiac

ey yo where the tripfag drama b @?

>>7056958
Stop samefagging with your desperation

>>7051749
Always the same story for me.

I met a nice girl who seemed kinda into me at my local con, little event called SDCC dunno if you'd know it.

"where do you live?" "Edmonton, Alberta." FRIG.

>at a con, mistook one cosplayer as cosplaying from another series, we joke about it
>meet a few more times by chance during the con, exchange info
>hang out IRL and chat online a bit after the convention
>"Anon, I have a crush on you. Will you date me?"
>Too pussy to say no even when I don't really want to
>TFW my first (and only) gay relationship

It didn't last long.

Met my wife by chance at otakon. Was looking for a room and posted it on a forum and she responded. We hit it off on the last day and we have been married for 5 years and together for 6. Have 2 kids with more planned.

>>7057055
You could have kept the convo going and/or asked for her number, bro.

>>7056844
I do all of these things properly, met someone at a con and we've hung out a bit. What now?

>meet a girl at a con
>dance at the rave
>ask her out on a date after the con

easy

>>7057286
are you a guy or a girl?

>>7057347
Motherfucker, are you retarded? Guy of course.

>>7056962
this ain't samefagging you retarded newfag

>>7057352
does she act like she's interested? if she seems interested, you should make a move soon, otherwise you might fall in the friendzone.

>>7057356
Yes it is you're the same faggot begging for drama
Take a look at yourself you disgusting piece of shit

>>7051753
i refuse to do that unless 50% of the people doing it are traps who actually look female

>>7057362
What does laughing a lot and seeming to enjoy my company mean?

>>7057382
Go for it.

>>7056203
>21

it's too late now fatso, all girls will be repulsed by you once they learn you're a 21 year old virgin, even if you're the mortal reincarnation of Adonis

if you're a girl you'd be better off though

>>7057382
that means you should ask her on a date.

DON'T just say "hey, you wanna get dinner sometime?" That's too ambiguous.
DO say "hey, you wanna go on a date with me?", or even "hey, you're single. Let's get dinner sometime." Make your intentions clear.

Good luck.

>>7057364
god you're so fucking stupid

just because I ask where tripdrama @ @2 o'clock and then again @ 9 don't make me a samefag

you're prolly just some butthurt tripfaggot yourself and a new one too, so I'm guessing you must be Canadian

>>7057352
Well I think I found your problem

>>7057395
Oh god this. I was really interested in a girl in college and no matter how heavily i was suggesting my interest and asking her to do stuff, she didn't think I was interested because I never asked her out bluntly. Granted, it's probably also because she had self-esteem issues and couldn't understand why someone would like her, but my point still stands.

No you stupid fucking shit, this what I call a "shit test". I make a painfully stupid *sounding* post but with a *good point*. Then you see if you actually try to make postal business zzzz penis into bagina fuck it I don't even care anymore Who's your favorite on America's Got Talent this year? I really love that dancing acrobat act that's made out almost entirely of underage girls. It is very arousing to see them dance in their tight bodysuits but I have to say the country singers are pretty strong this year too, I think they will both go to the finals.

>>7059522
personally, I really want Kenichi to win -- he's by far the most unique (& talented) act that's been on AGT for the last few years

if one of those country pricks or Catapult Ent. win the show instead imma just stop watching it forever and ever

>>7059201
All of the Tales of fans I know are girls... though I guess you'd be hard-pressed to call them cuties.

Well, you can't blame him for not being into assholes.

>>7059522
what the fuck are you trying to say? can anyone actually understand you in real life?

On the off chance any of you guys are the cynical type ("Who cares about this phone charm/figure/common interest, it's not THAT special...") and think everyone is the same, they aren't. I've managed to strike up conversations with girls on mistake just because I mentioned a figure or something fandom-related I own/seen/heard about, and they wanted to see pictures or know where I bought it, then things just went from there. It won't get you into her pants day 1 (and if it does you should probably be worried), but it's a good first step. Not everyone knows everything about every show, and some people might be overjoyed to hear that their favorite show is getting a second season, a movie, or an OVA.

Good end, I found my other half <3

>>7059701
Oh, I guess I forgot to add that we met in person for the first time at a con, which is why this story is relevant. Oops.

>>7059701
This makes me happy. It sounds similar to my previous relationship, but successful. I imagine if I didn't goof so hard that it would've ended up the same, since she often talked about loving waifu mode.

>>7059522
I liked that Russian who swallowed swords, it was very homoerotic.

Isn't Falcone military trash? No one wants him.

>>7059701
>excessive drinking/partying
Is that code for "he was a giant cuckold"?

>>7059730
Military trash is too much of a compliment for him. He's a fatty neckbeard who got kicked out of the US Military (where he was stationed in some faggy reserves squad or some shit like that, never having seen any action at all) and hasn't had a job since then, nor a girlfriend, ever.

>>7050931
Similar story here. He was a metal kid and quiet, so I perceived him to be an introvert, not a deluded dumbass.

He claimed to have grown up completely on his own, like a fucking echidna, yet 1/3 of his FB photos were selfies with his mom when he was 16 or so.

He always claimed he was in a metal band- he wasn't. He had no range when he growled, and he had a friend who played guitar, that was it. His metal knowledge was completely pleb-tier, despite his claims of dedication to the genre.

Months after I broke up with him, he messaged me out of the blue on FB with "I still have those pics you sent me." Like, was I supposed to be flattered and immediately take him back or something?

He eventually got involved with another girl, got engaged not even a year after he started dating her, and they broke up not even a year after that. Not long after, he started spamming me on FB and took it personally when I didn't reply, even though the messages didn't even display as read.

He literally made at least one post a day about how everyone who ever wronged him should just come back and apologize to him. I removed him because I just got so fed up with him.

Oh, and he was on staff for Anime Punch but got kicked off for being too stupid.

every date i have brought to a con has ended in screaming

This hasn't put me off trying to find a girl at a convention though. I will one day and your posts are making me feel a lot better.

>>7059883
I second that

>>7059716
What happened?
>>7059733
No, I never slept with anybody; I was a virgin back then, in fact. I just drank too much because I was depressed, and hid my depression by dancing around and being drunk and obnoxious.

We met in a panel at Ikkicon about 2 years ago and instantly we hit it off. We found each other on facebook and kept talking until we decided to date about 3 months later. We've had ups and downs along the way but I now I feel like she's the only one for me and I feel so strong about her that I plan to propose to her next week at AnimeFest.

I've got a date next week with a girl I met at otakon, it was just really lucky that she also was from NY.

>>7059840
You sound pretty retarded yourself. Birds of a feather flock together!!!

Heavily distorted "rock and roll" music is for little kids.

I am 100% convinced now that I will not meet another woman in my life until I cosplay again.

Last two g/f's were because of cosplay.

>>7060351
Last two of mine were too.
One was an attention whore which I guess I should have known due to her costume line up.
Cosplay girlfriends are interesting.

I dont know about you guys but I would never date a cosplayer. Especially not a seagull. What a horrible idea.

>>7060446
Does that mean that you and Matt "le Kevin Bacon face" Landau and you done broke up after he filled your orifices with his watery sperm, or are you just being a "le epig trolle" pretending that it was a good idea to date him and naively thinking that he's not fucking others behind your back?

Well I have a pretty messy con romance story.
To sum it up, I've been in the hospital for the 24+ hours, home tonight to pack, going back tomorrow, have lost/am going to lose all of my friends because of this guy and depending on how long I'm going to stay at the hospital when I go back I stand to lose my job and get thrown out of college because of missing hours.
I'm not gonna be able to attend another convention because of this, and cosplay has pretty much been ruined for me as well.
Love is a painful thing, especially when you meet someone who just doesn't seem to get it. I'm already planning on throwing myself off of a building once I'm able to go back home permanently.

>>7061242
Naw, story was too long for the post, so I held it off to see if anyone was remotely interested. I guess all girls are butthurt attentionwhores when this happens though.

>Get out of abusive relationship, go to con, meet guy, love at first sight
>Day 2 of con, have sex after much hesitation on my part because sex before an actual friendship rarely works out well
>Everything is sex now
>Don't talk for months, meet up at my birthday, sex and nothing but sex, and him making remarks on how we are so in love but not really
>Cannot figure this guy out, too stupid and naive to see what is going on here
>Roomshare at con in april, he asks me if its ok for him to make out with other people, well knowing that I really like him
>wtf do u want with me, freak the fuck out
>He dumps me, spends the next month going from "No I like you, never mind lets keep this going" to "fuck off I don't want to be friends"
>Roomshare at con in may, been planning for months, too expensive to back out
>He pretends everything is fine all of day 1 and turns into a big questionmark when I tell him we need to talk. Too insecure and scared to initiate "wtf is going on" conversation with him
>We have sex all of friday night, too scared to say anything cause fuck you I am in love and I don't want to lose this "happiness"
>Visit in july, we are basically a couple at this point and both accepting it sort of. Everything is great.
>July to august, he will only contact me about sexual things
>Roomshare in august, thursday is just me and him going on a date around town and having a nice time alone. Saturday+sunday shit goes down, two good friends abandon me, I'm feeling slightly down about this and the continual worry and confusion about what is happening with me and this guy cause everything is a mess
>He will only talk to me if his con-newbie friend tells him to

>We spend the next 2 days together cause I have nowhere else to go till wednesday

>Come home, make plans to hang again in a few months so we can properly get over this
>Figure out he's been filling me with bullshit for the last two days so he could avoid an argument, doesn't ever want to see me again, not gonna go into details on this

He's become a full part of my friendcircle over the year that we've been "friends", so I'm not gonna be able to see people anymore. I figure that anons are gonna call me a whiny attentionwhore and that this is totally not as bad as I'm making it out to be.
Not trying to play the victim since I know this has been a messed up clusterfuck for both of us. I've been a fucking idiot, but it's way too late to start over again. This time I've lost more than just one person, and my head is filled with too much confusion, anger and other terrible things to deal with it anymore.
Friday was my near first suicide attempt, saved by one person discovering me before I could actually go through with it. My parents are doing a lot of work convincing me to cheer up and just take a few sickdays instead of admitting myself permanently, but I can't deal with ruining their life as well so this is for the better.
This post is probably missing a lot of information. I am an exhausted crying mess and this is my badly told story of how I have completely lost all enjoyment in the things I used to love.

>>7061256

Are you 16? jesus
this is why Im gonna be that dad and watch over my daughter's life until she's like 20/starts her career. Orgasms =/= love.

All I can say is I've heard of worst mistakes, and those people turned out relatively fine, fine enough that I wouldn't have known otherwise and we still remained friends. So don't kill yourself and get your shit together, by that I mean life outside of other people, like your school and job and even if those don't work out, it's not the end of the world, as in there's other semesters/schools and jobs. And other friends/boyfriends as well. Those people seemed like shit anyways.

>>7061294
Not if I do you first

>>7061275
Whoa sis, don't an hero because of someone else. Go take horseback lessons or go pet rabbits or something. You're not going to ruin anyone's life by relying on them, but killing yourself isn't going to be sunshine and butterflies for them (not trying to guilt you, but those are the facts there).

It may not look like it right now, but it's a temporary problem. Give yourself a month at the very least. If you need to wipe a store clean of ice cream, fucking go for it.

It sounds like you're catastrophizing things just a bit, which can lead to very rash, regrettable decisions. Take a step back. I won't say "It'll get better!" but your perspective can definitely change.

>>7061275
>>7061256
Sounds like you got involved with an asshole, these things happen anon. If your friends are seriously deserting you for him then they weren't ever your friend's to begin with.
Drop the asshole, find new friends and know that some lessons need to be learned the hard way. Don't end your life over someone who doesn't even care about you, it isn't worth it and believe it or not, this will pass.
I recommend starting a journal.

Would like to add that he and all of my friends live in one country, I live in another. I don't have the funds to visit my friends individually, so cons are the only place where I can see them, and that's over for me now.
Exact same thing happened to me in my home country years back, except the guy decided upon spreading a shitload of rumors about me to everyone in the community, and with him being more well-known in the community than me, everyone sided with him.
Take the whole "love at first sight" with a grain of salt. We were both attracted to each other the moment we first saw each other, and as I got to know him better, the more I started to like him. There were moments of talking to each other and having fun together as friends, being there for one another and helping out, and those moments were some of the best I've had with a person in years.
Thoughts of suicide isn't just because of him, but he is the reason I've completely given up. This is a "love" thread, so I'm not gonna go into massive details about my life, just say that things have been falling apart with my family and future. I have/had some good friends, but whenever I've been in actual need of help over this year, he's been the only one who's bothered to listen to me at all, so I don't really have anyone anymore.
Like I stated in my previous post, this probably doesn't sound that bad, and sounds like a dumb teenage love because I'm probably leaving out a bunch of things since this is in relation to a bunch of other things that has happened throughout my life. Some serious permanent damage has been done, and I can't deal with yet another failure and another person I care about hating me like this.

Leaving thread for good now, carry on.

>>7061503
I know you're talking a different kind of "dressed up" but there have been plenty of times at cons where I've wanted to strut around in a nice suit, partly for getting all the ladies chasing after me, but mostly to feel even nicer surrounded by nerds.

People have serious problems, and just because you've never been through something like that, it doesn't mean everyone who does is a weakling and should be better off killing themselves.
God, i swear most of 4chan users are fucking animals with an aggressive-competitive attitude like yours, who are just waiting for someone to sound weak in a post to attack them and tell them to die, just to show off your "superiority" to other people.

>>7061677
No, men have nothing against sluts, but it's the kind of slut that sucks 6 dicks at once and then starts crying about how she didn' wanna suck no dick and that she actually was raped by patriarchy and then starts crying about how she's gonna kills herself, literally begging for attention -- that kind of slut? That shit gotta go.

I really really really really hope she's gonna kill herself. And I'd be honored if I was a part in it, it would make feel good that I made the world a better place. Santa would probably give me some presents for being such a good boy.

By the way, I'm not a virgin or a neckbeard or a loser who can't get sex so your buzz words won't save you you shits.

I posted my pics here the other day >>7055389actually.

Now kill yourself already.

>>7061683
No it wouldn't you cancerous slut, because unlike you I have a productive job and I also send money once a month to a child in Africa who couldn't go to school if it weren't for my support.

The world would only get worse if I died, only get better if you died. Face it you little slut and do the right thing, for once (killing yourself).

And, honestly, if she of all people on /cgl/ would kill herself? That would be something every normal seagull should celebrate. She is the worst janitor in history of 4chan. Not only nothing of value would be lost, we'd get objectively better moderation (since you can't be worse than utter shit).

oh jesus this makes a whole lot more sense.

So how's the Shire this time of the year?

>Sci-fi convention
>Run into friends GF
>She want to show me an item she bid on in the art auction.
>Run into a con-friend of mine
>This girl was following him around carrying a large chikoritta plush
>our groups converge
>20 minutes of talking ensue
> Friends GF leaves to meet up with her folks
> Con-friends goes boozing
> We kept talking
> We hang out in a panel together
> Then another
> 5 hours pass we are in the anime theater room, been talking since.
> At this point i start testing the waters
> A manageable volume of spaghetti is making its way out of my pockets.
> Ask's her if she is comfortable (the chairs sucked)
> She says she is fine, and asks me the same (we have been repeating questions like this for a while now)
>I mention my arm would be more comfortalbe like this
> Rest my arm over her shoulders
>"Good thing I'm single"
> Spaghetti recedes back from where it came
> Late that night
> We are getting tired and ready to part for the night
> Oh shit, its now or never
> Find a corner where we can sit for a few minutes
> SIR OUR NERVES ARE PASSING THEORETICAL MAXIMUM, I DON'T THINK WE CAN HANDLE THIS!
> WE WONT KNOW, UNLESS WE TRY. BRACE YOURSELVES, WE ARE GOING FOR IT!
> Ask her what she thinks of me
> She likes me, and wants to see me more
> "how about a relationship?"
> "sure"

We just had our three year anniversary last month, at the same convention of course.

>>7061691
bitch, you so skinny that THEY should be sending you money for some food

>>7061796
OH NO SHE DI INT
SNAP SNAP

I met a really great girl but I dumped her because my friends didn't like her since she dressed in all punk/goth/rave stuff and all my now ex friends are stuff rich white people who look down on anyone weird or likes anime.

Which is funny cause they are now all in to social justice bullshit and they still look down on my friends for liking anime and having hobbies that aren't complete hipster trash and bullshit.

So how do you guys deal with distance? A relationship must be pretty difficult if you find your second half but they're from the other side of the country right?

>>7061256
>Get out of abusive relationship, go to con, meet guy, love at first sight
>Day 2 of con, have sex after much hesitation on my part because sex before an actual friendship rarely works out well

>Day 2 of con, have sex after much hesitation on my part

>Day 2

>have sex after much hesitation

wtf am I reading?

>>7062025
Don't do it.
Seriously.
Shit never works out.

DO IT

>>7061275
Damn, girl. He's definitely pretty much been full of shit this whole time, and to use the cliche, it seriously applies here: it's not you, it's him. He's a fucking douchebag using you. YOU ARE WORTH MORE THAN THE WAY YOU FEEL RIGHT NOW. Do not give in to those terrible feelings and remove your irreplaceable self from the world. Srsly, please.

I know this is 4chan and this is probably a troll but fuck actual an heroing. Don't do it.

>>7064388
Stop ruining the world with your shitty advice, please.

Is there any seagull who needs a boyfriend? :o)

>>7066335
>implying a seagull would ever date an Anon

Male tripfags = Alphas.
Male anons = Betas.

>>7066335
>dating anyone from /cgl/
dude no

>>7051521
Just tell the next girl to give you her number the first time you meet, stupid :^)

>>7051838
This, it's the unnecessary sexualization of 2013's anime applied the 90's, it was really quite ahead of it's time.

>>7051970
lolwat
Dude here. If my girlfriend fucked some guy I'd make sure she felt like shit about it. I couldn't care less about the guy. It is nobody's responsibility but mine and hers to keep our relationship together.

>>7059195
>some dude out there is making fake Facebook accounts to befriend young girls so he can screencap shit like this in between JO crystal charging sessions

>>7066335
>4chan
>dating
I'm not sure why you don't see where you went wrong but I'm hoping you can figure it out.

>>7061275
That's pretty messed up, you should just like... move somewhere, realtalk, moving to a new town is the funnest shit, and taking classes / joining an anime club / going to local cons is a sweet way to make new friends. I know you didn't say anything about your living situation, but just be aware of how important that is. If you're living with your parents and you don't need their moral support, it might be more poisonous than you think.

>>7064395
"Don't kill yourself" is shitty advice? Lol okay

>>7066367
But it always ends good for the males. They get a good lay, often with a woman far above the level they could normally get (Todd, Mr.Utada).

>Go to convention over the weekend
>Really needing to find a girlfriend
>Won't ever happen

Apparently I'm "really attractive" but I just don't see it. It's not like I catch people checking me out or being nice to me or even talking to me actually. Depression sucks.

>>7067160
"It's not you, it's [them]" it's an absolutely horrible thing to say to someone after experiencing a situation where they were partially responsible for their own misfortune.

>>7067537
True that.

Don't place yourself under actively shitting people if you don't want to be shit on. Have some independence. You're not ready for any kind of relationship without it.

>wearing shitty bubblegum crisis armour
>hot as fuck but WHY NOT
>stupidly decides to go to the crowded rave and dances in it
>boiling
>Master chief cosplayer slowly inching towards me through the crowd
>I laugh as we awkwardly shuffle in our armour, not too much movement but still having fun
>after a couple of songs we can't take it anymore and sit on the sidelines. I get us both water
>"Hey, wanna do an epic reveal?"
>Surre...
>Cue dramatic slow removing of helmets
>He's not my usual type. Large build with a well defined jawbone and freckles taking over his face but his goofy grin made me go dokidoki
>He looks down at me and smiles, then raises his hand to pat my head
>"Careful when you're dancing at the rave, okay kid? There're some bad people."
>Stunned
>He puts his helmet back on and disappears into the crowd with a wave
>can't find him again

I got child-zoned /cgl/. I'm 21 /cgl/. I'm short and have a young face, but I'm 21 /cgl/.

>>7067891
That must have sucked for you Anon, but you gotta admit it's pretty funny.

>>7067941
It is funny, but it hurts when I'm done laughing anon.
This happens often.

Any girl here wants to take my virginity?

>>7072264
Based on your body, yes. You have some sexy hip bones. But I'd really have to see your face before I make a definite decision.
Unless you're cool with having a paper bag on you the entire time.

>>7072275
>Unless you're cool with having a paper bag on you the entire time.
No problem at all!

>>7051527

>>7072264
Nah, you're a virgin for a reason, and I'm not going to deal with that reason.

Go practice on a girl with no standards first, then we'll talk.

>>7072412
This so much. Virgin men = trash of society.

>>7067964

I know these feelings anon. This happens to me too.

>>7072415
Nice try, fatty

>>7061410

Wait wait, are you from Denmark but you travel to the US for cons?

>>7067891
Are you a girl? He might have been trying to be endearing. The 'bad people' part was probably because you're a girl who is already in a compromised position because you're in unweildly armour.
Maybe you feel like this happens to you a lot because you're misjudging the situation?

But considering you're 21, you can dispel any questions about your age with one easy question: "Want to grab a drink?"

>>7067531
I sort of know that feel. I just dont know how to talk to girls and can't tell if a girl is into me unless its painfully obvious.

>>7072584
"This DJ/barman sucks, huh?"
It'll flow from there

>>7067531
I know that feel too. I guess for me it's just that im to old for Anime-Cons (26 years ...).

Would girls at a con even look at someone as old as me twice or is it pointless going there?

>>7073746

Well, you're not THAT old yet... And as long as you don't LOOK too old, I guess grills will still go for you.

> A-And anyway, I like older men.

>>7061790
>> "how about a relationship?"
>> "sure"
lol'd

>>7072264
>being bleach
No. just no!

>>7069192
>dramatically collapse outside elevator
>guy carries me outside
>start dating next day

sounds like knight in shinning armor carrying you like a princess - who wouldn't fall for someone like that?

Be at animu con, cute girl starts talking to me on elevator. I talk with both her and my friends while we go up to our floor. Later my friends, both male and female, tell me she was flirting with me and I was completely oblivious. My best female friend now has a signal worked out for these sorts of situations. I was dissapointed but it's okay because at the same con I met a nice girl who actually lives near me, we went on a date this week and she wants to go out again.

>Be at no con
>no female comes up to me
>don`t talk to anyone
>be loser
>stand in corner silent and awkward
>my life

>>7074362
>Be at no con
>no male comes up to me

>>7074386
hey you're pretty cute whats your cosplay oh anime is a cool show ok so do you have a hotel room? ;D

can I find love at a con?

>>7059901
Don't worry anon, I met my current bf at the last October MCM, and we're moving to London together next month. There are plenty of non-crazies around, you just have to look hard!

On a related note, if any of you who go to MCM get hit on by a Slovenian girl named Viva/Nana Higuchi (which, if you're a 5/10 or more, you will), run as far away as you can. You do NOT want to be getting involved with her.

>>7074615
no. there are only sluts and creeps.

>>7074784
And people already in a relationship/with partner.

>>7074386
Three important questions then:

Are you fat?

Are you cute?

Are you a virgin?

:3

If the answer is Nay/Yay/Yay, then you have gotten yourself a boyfriend. :---------33333

>>7074789
they are not mutually exclusive

>>7074615
If you're at least average-looking, enjoy hobbies/shows the other gender loves (Doctor Who if you're a guy, video games if you're a lady) and are single then yes, you will get all the boys/girls/others chasing after you

>>7074787
Betafag to the extreme

I had a conversation with a girl who was at a cosplay for less panel and we had coffee later
It wasnt anything serious though. I would rather not have a relationship with a girl I met at a con

>>7074798
>implying hitting on a girl confidently makes me a Beta

>>7051914
should have brush up against his dick we aren't mind readers

>>7074817
No you're a beta because you're a faggot about "hitting" on a girl.
Now tip your fedora to the nice girl on the internet and find a REAL girl to talk to.
Assuming you don't need a keyboard to ask her if she's fat.

>>7074848
Oh god, no, it looks like I've just encountered an Internet mangina/whiteknight. He's going to fight me, the evil villain, for the purity of this fair maid.

It wasn't even a cunt that I was talking to, probably just some guy you stupid pussy pedestaling fuck.

>>7051914
Have you, perchance, considered that you were too ugly/unattractive/morbidly obese for him, you vapid self-centered cunt?

If not, then you should've just started twerking against his dick, that always works.

>>7074851
S-stop being so rude to me...or... or I'll... I'll kill myself!!!

>>7051932
This.
I actually DIDN'T fuck a girl I was seeing because I didn't want to think I was only chasing tail.
As for the other part of not wanting to do anything and get perceived wrong, I think being Military makes it harder for me.

I'm SO used to being careful with the way I talk to girls because of what can be perceived and start rumors that I think it spills over into talking to civilian women.

That's my take on it though.

>>7074859
>because I didn't want to think I was only chasing tail.
So you wanted to deceive her then? : ^^ ^)

>valle
>not being after any female that lets him put his tiny dick inside her
Nigga pls. That's why you started/are cosplaying, remember?

I don't know i have heard a lot of stories of horror stories of crazy girls don't know if i am desperate enough to stick my dick in crazy

>>7074861
>this logic
You guys don't even try anymore.
I'm more disappointed than insulted.

>>7074865
Yeah, I guess the truth is more disappointing to realize/admit, than insulting.

>>7074866
Gettin' there anon.
Keep at it.

WHO HERE IS GOING TO AWA???

:)))))

>>7076000
not me...

>>7076000
>TRIPS!!!!!!!

Not me. It too far. Moot, why didn't you pick a socal convention?!

>>7076000
Moot can we PLEASE get spoiler pics on here?

>>7076000
I need a roommate moot. What should I do?

>>7076000
Well hello there

>>7076000
mootikins! I missed you

>>7076000
I changed my mind and decided to not go but now that there's a 4chan panel I'll be going.

>>7076000
> :)))))

stop this
also fuck you AWA is wayyy too far
why do you always do this to me you monster

>>7050211
Gunsmith Cats... good anime!
Now we know already... we are OLD! ;_;

By the way... I make a cosplay as Tetsuo and I meet many people they don't know Akira!
"What is Akira? Never hear....", "Tetsuo? Who is that?"
Damn! What the hell!

>>7076000
Hi moot :3

>>7051752
Not the same anon, but can someone give more tips about this?

You are now aware that moot raised to bump limit in this thread just so that [more] people could see he posted in it.

This thread gives me hope ;~;

>>7076000
I'm really disappointed in myself that I am now trying to go because I want to go to a fucking 4chan panel. Originally me and my friends were doing a group but we decided to do a different convention.
Moot why the frick frack did you not announce this shit sooner.
>tfw I'm going next year

>>7076000

I'm going, with about ten or so people from the horrible touhou fanfiction site I frequent.

I'm bringing binoculars so I can see the expression on ZUN's face when he enters the panel and sees the mass of weeb humanity that adores him. No wonder you two get along; you both know what it's like to start a side project that soon becomes a raging, snarling monster far in excess of anything you could have possibly anticipated.

Met a guy at a con last Spring, get along really great, never mention liking him.
Meet him again in Summer, still getting along great.
Destined to just stare from afar.
