I almost did speed dating until it fell apart because some of us LGBT wanted to join which wasn't a big deal then one guy made it all into his one-man mission to bag him a man and another person suggested they just put tape down on the floor and divide the room into a "gay" and "not gay" section.

>> No.6713625

>>6713448
Besides the ingrained notion that segregation is wrong; I really don't see a problem this that suggestion. I mean you are going to speed dating with the ultimate goal of finding someone to date right? So why would you look filter through candidates that are not going to find you sexually attractive, and not because they don't find you attractive based on your looks but because they are not interested in someone of the same sex or gender? I think a better compromise would to have LGBT nights and sort the dates based on whichever criteria they have listed. Moreover breaking this down into L G B and T to increase the possibility of a match occurring.

>> No.6713629

>>6713625
Yeah, I'd have to agree. If you're gay you're not going to be interested in girls. As well as if you're not gay you might disappoint a gay guy by being interesting to them but not in them.

>> No.6713641

>>6713448

It would probably be better if you set up your own night/time for that. Not calling for "segregation" or anything, but it would cull a lot of the confusion, and you would know everyone at the event is on the same page.

>> No.6713649

I would definitely try it out.

Meeting women my own age who are into my hobbies is getting tougher. I've had a good number of relationships, but mostly with girls still in their "college" age bullshit where they just skip around to new guys every few months. (Some will call BS on me, but no, I've literally seen the girls I used to go out with hop onto two or maybe four different relationships or flings after me with no end in sight)

When I was 17-25, I cosplayed a lot more. It's a good opener for talking to women, lets you both see you have something in common.

Recently I've fallen off the cosplay wagon, due to needing to focus on work and a career. This has made me totally unseen by the nerd dating community, since I can't even make an appearance. Not to mention the girls I "want" to date (age 26+) are usually taken this late in the game, or even married.

Speed dating might be a good idea. I know I'm actually a pretty good looking guy, but there is a severe lack of time that I can invest into meeting women when not working. Also, I find online match making too impersonal.

sorry for tldr, just explaining why a speed dating event at a nerd convention could probable be a good idea. Some of us older nerds just aren't in the right environment anymore to meet our own people anymore.

There wasn't anything wrong with the suggestion on its own other than we had already agreed on colored stickers for everyone at the event to show who wanted what and up until that point the person who suggested taping a divider had been utterly unhelpful. They also suggested we make tshirts with our sexuality on it.

>where they just skip around to new guys every few months

This... made me feel really strange. Although I do kiss and make out with more people and more often than I should (one every month, sometimes more, sometimes less) every single one of my relationships (totaling two, lol) lasted almost or over two years.
And yet I'm always hearing about girls who'll have a different bf every month.

I wish I had friends and talked to people to have an idea whether or not that's such a common thing.

Except for the part about dating for just a few months being "bullshit" (what's so bad about that?) I am TOTALLY in the same boat.

When you're rockin the 9-5 work week as opposed to sporadic college classes, meeting people is harder, ESPECIALLY nerdy people. Which is ironic because now I have the budget FOR cons and cosplay and stuff.

Even though I'm ACTUALLY crippled by it (can't have a normal job, can't study, quite literally cannot function because of it, on such extreme levels I would probably kill myself on the occasion my parents or family died) I have such a high level of anxiety I cannot talk to therapists or anything of the sort.

So here's a question. When speed dating, EVEN though it's at a con, how much should one control his or her power level?

I mean I think it's safe to say if you're at a con there's at least one show/game you can get REALLY amped about. I dunno if going full power level beyond just "yeah I really like blah" the first time you meet someone is a good idea.

It's no wonder she "had to study". Jesus I couldn't have run away faster if that were my first date with someone.

Meeting parents early is ALWAYS a warning sign. If it's something that can't be avoided (ie you live at home, it's a shit economy, I get it) that's one thing. Going out of your way to do so suggests some immaturity stuff.

Did it once, not even again. The males were made to move from chair to chair, and the girls sat with their backs to the front of the room. The screen there would flip through slides that allowed for icebreakers.

A lot of the guys seemed incredibly forever alone.jpg, but I did get one guy who cosplayed as Hard Gay, freaking loved that guy.

Almost immediately afterward I recieved a man dressed in a cheetah-print leotard with ears and a tail who told me he was a "16 year old boy stuck in a 34 year old man's body."

I would go, but I would probably chicken out after starting, tell myself "these people are below me" and act extremely haughty/unimpressed/sarcastic throughout the entire thing in order to defend myself from being emotionally damaged.

The last time I had social interaction with someone who wasn't my parents, it was while I was walking home and these two people were fucking in their car parked alongside their house. I heard a knock on the car window, and a guy stuck his head out and said "I'm was getting raped in here! Don't you care?!" I guess he was trying to be funny. My autism blaster was automatically shifted into 3500 and I said "not really" and walked away. The average person is... something special, though I suppose the average person at a con is a bit different. Maybe if they had a friend meetup thing, I would do it.

Try not to come off as apologetic, but don't be an asshole. Show you're interested in other people without being the "ay bby gurl u want sum fuk" guy. People often go to cons to meet others who like the things they do, so your best bet is to find people who share your interests, be it a certain game or anime. Striking up a conversation may fail at first and some people will be too stuck up or uninterested to talk to you. Don't worry about those people. For every nerd with an upturned nose, there are probably 100 of them who would grab your arm to tell you about Precure or Homestuck.

I'm just bad with girls because I've been fat all my life and played videogames. That's all there is to it. You can lose the fat pretty fast, to lose a life of having this attitude is much more harder.

I have friends that are girls in school, but it never gets past the occasional conversation in the classroom. I guess it's partially my fault for not being assertive/talkative enough, but then that gets back to my point of not wanting to get in the way.

>It's also a word to define a gender.
"Man" and "woman" are the generally used terms used to describe adult humans. "Male" and "female" are generally used only in medical settings to describe a patient or in scientific settings to describe a subject or non-human animal. Using "male" or "female" in place of "man" and "woman" in other settings gives the implication that you consider yourself separate and "above" them. Neckbeards have a tendency to use "man" and "female", which is why it sets off red flags for a lot of people.

To answer OP's question, I would probably do it if I was single. Is it possible to meet friends in speed dating? That might be a silly question since it is "dating" but I just want to know.

Mmm, sort of. Instead of prefixing it with an apology, just say what it is, if it's the truth you don't have to be sorry about
it.

And if it's the truth it'll reflect in your actions, it's the difference that makes shyness creepy or endearing. Your thoughts will betray you, so if you're constantly thinking all the ways it could go wrong, it likely will. Just don't think anything and be in the present. Thinking too far ahead and you'll make plans that aren't there, too far behind and you'll miss cues in the moment.

Think good thoughts, positive thoughts, and think in mutual best interests.

Take care of yourself. Don't dress like a slob; flatter your body. Have a good haircut. Staying clean-shaved can help you look younger (looking older can make you seem intimidating depending on what age group you're hoping to date). If you have facial hair, keep it well-groomed and not douchey or "ironic" (e.g. curly moustaches). Try to stay in relatively good shape.

I used to be really awkward and bad at conversation, I still am a little bit, but I've improved a lot. And sadly there's no trick to it. It just comes from lots of practice.

The qualities you like in other people are probably the same things you should strive for yourself. Show interest in other people, don't dominate a conversation talking about yourself; ask questions and really listen. Be genuine and friendly. Make jokes if a good one comes to you, but don't force yourself or feel the need to make jokes all the time. Stuff like that.
