Well, if it counts for anything, good looking female cosplayers are all promiscuous as fuck. If they're not fucking multiple people at every con, they're the kind of mentally unstable women that switch boyfriends every few months. So focus on getting a girl who's just a regular weeb, but doesn't cosplay.

It's a toss up really if we're talking about your average 18 yr old girls. But 18 hot female cosplayers get more dick than the average 6-7/10 male will ever get pussy, in their entire lives.

Male anons, I am here to drop some wisdom as a cosplayer.
Cons are not the place to find a partner.
When girls are cosplaying at cons, this isn’t what they’re thinking about. Depending on age/why they cosplay/etc, they are doing it to have fun or get attention or hang out with friends. It’s not about finding a partner. There may be some looking for hookups, but even then, it’s probably a one night stand type deal.
And even if you meet someone, unless it’s a small local con, they are not necessarily going to live anywhere near you.
Your best bet is to try to meet a cosplayer locally through normal means (local events, online dating). Get to know them and don’t be a creep. Most cosplayers on dating sites are probably going to want to meet other nerds/weebs anyway so knowing about that stuff and going to
cons is already a plus for you.
I met my fiancé on okcupid and most of my pics were cosplay pics. He was chill and normal about it while also expressing that he liked those series I was cosplaying from and went to cons. I also got a lot of creeps asking if I wore the costumes in the bedroom and shit. Don’t be those guys and it will help you get a foot in the door by knowing about stuff she likes.

>>10788593
I’m not saying it’s impossible to meet someone at a con. But it’s a lot less likely to meet someone than at a local event or online dating sites.
If anything, they shouldn’t go into it looking for a partner only. Meet people and make friends, and if it goes from there, cool. If it doesn’t, you still have friends you met.

Get a "normie" gf from outside the anime/geek/nerd scene and convert her instead. That's how I did with my wife. Also, for all dudes, lower your standards.

Dudes that make these threads on here spend too much time whining and bitching over women who have no interest in them rather than focusing on the women that do. Get in where you fit in and talk to the non cosplaying women out there.

That doesn't work. You know that is basically bait.

You dont have ANY other hobbies outside of anime and vidya? Also, where you live also has a huge bearing on the type of women you can choose from. Do you live in the big city, small town or suburbs? Are you willing to travel outside your local area? Go to Dragoncon in Atlanta. That is where anybody and I mean anybody can and will get laid. This is the con where you will see a country bumpkin from the backwoods of the Georgia getting it on with a drunk ghostbuster chick from DC.

This is what you get for being born in a third world, backwards country where cosplay conventions are recent (started in late 1990s and comic cons only gained traction around 2004, with the first 'comic con' being in the 2010s) and where cosplaying is still quite the taboo.

this is an ultimate meme. don't trust this bollocks. I'm married with trad normalfags and no, she's not interested with anime and cosplay no matter how hard you convert her.

I work out regularly and am not even short. I've tried picking up at cons for years and haven't gotten a single success. I've even tried adding them on Instagram after and chatting to them there but nope.

Sorry bros, even getting a gf at a con isn't the way.

I literally just put on a pre made cosplay and walk around and girls compliment me then start conversations with me, exchange socials, and every time I've asked a girl I met at a con to go on a date they said yes
Despite my cosplays being low effort I usually get 100+ photo requests at small cons and at big cons like AX enough requests I lose track

We reconnected on /jp/. He got a super huge crush on me and would drive for 7 hours straight to visit me. I appreciated his devotion and agreed to date him long-distance. We would chat everyday online, going from AIM to Pidgin to Googletalk to LINE. This continued for 6 years. We got married before we'd even lived together, but I knew he would bend over backwards for me.
He does. He loves me more than I love him, and that's okay. He does everything I ask of him and he is nice to me. I think he's only gotten mad at me once in 10 years. I eventually moved in with him.

No, being attractive and appearing confident are more important. Wearing a cosplay may pique her interest more if it's a character she likes.

>Also, what's the right way to do this if they're with friends? Just not care?
Don't interrupt their conversations. Chat her up when she's looking away from her friends and seeming receptive.

>Does it help to have a cosplay Instagram?
Yes and no. If you successfully hit it off and she's interested, having an Instagram means one more method of keeping in touch and having a platform to post content that she'll check on. If you have a massive following, it might be a perk to some women. If she's not interested in you, then showing her your Instagram comes off as desperate attention whoring especially if you're not a good cosplayer/photographer.

I'm 37 and still going to cons hoping to meet a girl, the light of hope gets dimmer and dimmer every passing year. I don't even know what the problem is either.

I've seen so many guys worse then me with women. I think I might just come off as too intimidating for women at cons. Most of the younger men at cons that have girls, i've talked to them, they are usually college students that don't have their shit together like I do. Any advice?

I don't know if this is bait, and I don't want to disappoint you anon but if you are 37 yo you will obviously have some trouble finding a gf at a convention. Most people are in their 20s
Unless you approach girls your age, in which case fine I guess but those must be pretty rare at conventions. Not to mention most of them are probably parents with children and all.
Do you cosplay? How do you usually approach people? What kind of women are you chasing after?

>Do you cosplay

I used to, not so much anymore

>How do you usually approach people

If there is a panel i'm in line for, I might strike up conversation with the people around me in line. If its not a panel, I usually just hang out in some crowded lobby and maybe will strike up a conversation with some random people that look like they are in a fanbase I know. Also at Otakon back when it was in Baltimore I guess I'm known to have been outside on the convention center desks late at night around 12am minding my own business, depressed con people tended to come up to me and vent about their issues. Happened a lot.

>What kind of women are you after

I don't have any real preferences. Just one who will care about and support me long term.

>strangers ask each other out at cons
Is this some sort of American thing I'm too Irish to understand? I've never met anyone at any convention I've been at who's goal was to score some dick/pussy, we mostly just buy shitty merch, play vidya + /tg/ and admire each other's cosplay grinds

Finding partners at cons in canada seems to be a really rare thing. Not impossible though. For me it was inviting people and meeting friends of friends, as opposed to getting a completely new person's number

How old are you? Any temporary meetup is an opportunity to fuck and suck. A music fest, a conference (of any kidn, professional or hobby), hell even a church camp is a chance to fuck and suck. Are you only looking for pussy/dick when you're in your hometown? Weird.

37 can reasonably date down to like 28 and there's a decent amount of single women at cons from that age and up. Some are single for a reason but there are good ones too, people get out of relationships and stuff. I'm 36 and the girl I'm pursuing is 31 and just out of a bad marriage, and funny enough we didn't meet through con or cosplay stuff at all so it was a big surprise when I found out that she was a lolita and had cosplayed in the past. (She had to leave most of her stuff behind when she ran away from abuse so I've only seen her in regular clothes.)

If they're interested, they're interested, and most of them have discord now. If they don't and they won't install the app for you then it was never meant to be anyway. Just ask for discord and move on.

You're going to have to realize that if you expect men in the modern era to "pick up on hints" or make a first move /especially at a con setting/ you're going to be disappointed. You've got to make your interest in their continued attention extremely obvious or you're probably going to get the tap and go.
