How does one get an otaku bf on a con? I've never been to one and to be honest I am rather new to anime. Do I need to cosplay? I'm also awkward in a non cute way.

How does one get an otaku bf on a con?

I've never been to one and to be honest I am rather new to anime. Do I need to cosplay?
I'm also awkward in a non cute way.

go to panels that interest you

try out table top gaming rooms, they're the best thing to get everyone friendly with each other, I also love table top gaming. I didn't think I would at first, but I'm sucked in now

You have to take the initiative, many otaku guys are too shy or don't have enough self-confidence to talk to women at cons. They'll usually dismiss hints that you consider obvious and if you're cute enough they may think you're making fun of them/it's a trick.

mangull here.
Without too much detail;
If your cute you honestly wont have a problem, even if your sub average in the face it wont be too hard. You might have trouble if your overweight though. Overall it will be extremely easy to pick up guys, most of them are desperate or have no standards.
If your in cosplay then your chances are even better.
Just be realistic with your expectations and remember to adjust your standards.
But the most important thing is to TALK TO PEOPLE. You have no idea how many guys would kill for a girl to walk up, initiate conversation and show interest. Its that easy.

>How does one get an otaku bf on a con?
Srsly? Simply by being a girl... show that you are nerdy but social at the same time and they will come swarming.

>Do I need to cosplay?
No necessarily, especially if it's your first con. It's a bit "safer" to check everything out before doing it. But if you feel up to the task... do it.

>I'm also awkward in a non cute way.
Tomoko Kuroki Level awkward?

Be as self-confident as possible and just chat up to guys that interest you. If they cosplay, talk about that, if they stand at a certain booth maybe hit that up. And since you'r new to anime, hit that up as well and ask for recommendations etc.
It's really not that hard as a girl, if you are at least a 6/10 they will hit on you anyway.

Seasoned womangull here, don't be afraid to take the initiative also because sometimes if you're too cute or whatever, geek guys just assume you're taken already and never make a move themselves.
And that leaves you with only the sleazy guys who hit on everything talking to you.

Don't shout about it, but it's not bad to drop hints about being single like 'I love my pokemon, if I had a boyfriend I hope he wouldn't be jealous!'.

If the con you are going to has a ballroom event try that. Really go for it too, don't just sit there, build-up some confidence and for god's sake take the ballroom classes that is offered at the cons.

You can also try meet-ups, those are always fun social events. Look for a meet-up that you like, that way the person you are seeking will have the same interests as you. Just watch out for those few who spew autism.

Cosplay is a plus especially in meet-ups that is relevant to it. Although, It's not really needed.

Honestly, unless you manage to really hit it off, I don't think going to a con is the way to get an instant boyfriend.

I met Mr. Fiance through mutual friends at a college party. He thought I was a meanie, but half a year and some super smash bros. later we were dating.

I can confirm this. I respect women so much that I stay completely away from them.

Last weekend I was at a bar and this like 30 year old chick comes up to me and asked me to buy her a drink. I asked "why would you come to a bar without money?" She scoffed at me and got a drink from some old guy instead.

I felt so dumb... I could've had sex with that lady...

I still regret not buying her drink.

Oh, here's another story about being oblivious. This was at Nekocon. I was in the dealer's room looking at wigs and this girl dressed as Misty comes up to me. This was my first time putting on a wig and she made me try on all these wigs and kept playing with my face. She was very attractive, but when she said "you should follow me around" some alarm went off in my head.

I SO should've followed her around... I was alone at that con and she was like the only person I spoke to.

If he's cosplaying a series you like:
>Walk up to him
>Tell him you like his costume
>Ask for a picture
>Ask him something about the series/tell him what you like about it
>If he can't answer ditch that normal fag and move on. It's fairly common for girls to cosplay series they don't know because they like the design or whatever, but it's pretty rare for a guy in my experiences.
>ask some shit like, "So, did you come here with your girlfriend...?"
That there is your opening
>You should probably make the first move as most of these guys are beta as fuck.

If he's not cosplaying it'll probably be a litle harder to break the ice Buuuut
>Go to panels to things you like, not just yaoi panels, because you won't find the kind of guy you ant there if you catch my drift...
>Sit next to/behind/infront of some dude and it'll be easier to comment on something he says or vise versa or just hang around after the panel and see if you can chat with anyone.

Other methods:
>Some con's offer speed dating.... you may try that if you like.
>Get shit faced drunk and go to a con's rave/dance. Figure shit out from there...

I'd say I'm around an 8/10 (healthy/thin weight, C-cups, pretty face, decent cosplays), yet I've never been hit on at a con. I've only been to two smaller ones, but still, your statement may be flawed. I've been told I look intimidating (even though my personality really is not), so maybe that's it. But dang son.

yes, from there compliment their outfit and chat about the con. By this point you should be able to tell if she's into you enough to keep going or if you should move on. If you move on say thanks for the photo and have a good day with a smile.

This is assuming you want more than a photo. If you just want a photo this works too but 'can I have a photo' is more than fine as long as you don't do something weird like hug her in the photo or whatever

That's pretty normal with aspies. They can talk about a few things that they find interesting.

As a guy who attends cons, I make a point of not hitting on women. It's an environment where a lot of women are getting attention they don't normally get in their daily lives and a lot of guys have kind of ruined it for the rest of us by being creepers, so I prefer to just act neutrally and inclusive rather than flirty. I'd need to actually see somewhat clearer than normal signs of interest (usually found by body proximity when standing and speaking) before advancing, so I recommend actually showing some direct interest rather than relying on the guy to take a first step.

Count me in as one of those awkward otaku beta males. I go to cons mainly for blog/news coverage, but it would be nice to find an otaku gf with some things in common. Trying to date normal women has been hell because they look at what I do for a living as a joke. I also can't tell if a girl is showing genuine interest or is just being nice, so a more obvious sign would be nice, especially since I'm not big on hitting on girls.

While that would certainly help, I think you can actually just ask them if they're at the con with anyone. If they aren't, then you can tell them bluntly that you find them attractive/interesting/whatever you like about them and tell them that you'd like to check out the panel/dealer's room/whatever with them. Extend your hand, let the guy take it, and then go do whatever you said you'd do. If you actually do like them after spending some time with them, tell them so and go from there.

These guys will assume that you aren't interested in them by default and their minds will rationalize all kinds of subtle things as meaning something else because it's easier than risking rejection, so you really have to club them over the head and drag them back to your cave.

I don't think I've ever been hit on at a con. Or maybe I was just oblivious to it? I think I'm at least a 6/10 but never had it happen. I go to cons with my bf now but like when I was single it never happened. So maybe it's just me but I never had it happen.

But anyway I've actually had quite a few friends who've got together because of a con. We all met because we cosplayed League of Legends and then got each others info and played together and three months down the road there was three new couples haha.

So my advice would be to go to a meetup, regardless if you are cosplaying or not. It's a great way to meet people with the same interests. I know at Sakura Con there is a board that has all the cosplay meetups posted, but I'm not sure about other cons. You can usually find the meetups online as well. In my experience everyone is really nice and it's easy to talk to them because you both like the same thing. Hope this helps OP and best of luck!

Switch to mixed or work on hook brah. You have smallish hands I'm sure, so your grip will fail once you hit 405+ with that grip. I'm 6'5 with hueg hands and can't get anything over 405 without going mixed.

And OP, if you really want to find a bf that is legit /a/-tier into anime, learn what shows are currently airing, find a hot looking dude at a con, talk to him and ask him what he's watching. If you can become familiar with /a/, an /a/non is easy to find. It is easiest to do at late night events too imo. I'm personally much more sociable after a few drinks, and girls at cons approach me fairly often. I'm like a 6-7/10 face (but at a con it's like an 8 in comparison), but I have a body type that some girls like a lot (6'5 240), and I honestly appreciate it, and if a qt /a/ girl came up to me, I'd gf her pretty quickly despite my waifu.

I was under the impression that no one very deep into anime went to conventions (disregarding cases where cons have a cool guest, I'd muscle through any herd of weeaboos to see FKMT personally). But then most people I know who watch anime past a moderate level hide their powerlevels unless you somehow "catch" them. But hey, anythings possible. But I don't really see why you'd want an otaku as a significant other, I'd never even want to meet another one in person.

Speaking from personal experience only, there are MANY, MANY people at anime conventions that are otaku and you will never notice them.

They have mastered the art of hiding in plain sight and generally have enough disdain for human contact to pull off some normalfag interactions-sans-spaghetti and get through the crowd to buy/see what they want. I live with a dude who takes in 99% of his daily calories as moe and has figs/dakis/posters and when we go to cons he seems more normal than me.

Similar store at Fan Expo Van.

Asked a girl doing an Ada Wong cosplay for her picture because she fucking nailed it.

She takes a look at my swag bag that I'd been carrying around and commented on almost every item.

"You have really good taste, I wish I knew some people to play League and watch anime with where I lived"

"Ya, me too"

Then I walked away. Fuck me I'm retarded when it comes to women. At the time I just figured it was an offhanded compliment, no different than telling someone you liked their new shoes at the office.

I didn't ask to hang out with her or get her info because I thought that'd be creepy.

On the other side of things:

How do you get rid of someone who is hitting on you insistently?

For example:
I'm cosplaying, guy asks for picture, say yes, guy takes picture with his arm around me, I'm a little uncomfortable, but no big deal. Guy keeps hitting on me, drop some hints like "my husband also likes Street Fighter", but guy doesn't get the hint. Keep politely nodding until there's some excuse to break conversation "I have to go to pre-judging". Guy follows me to panel. Can't shake him.

I want to be polite, but I find that being polite (for otaku) is the same as leading them on. What do?

Directly tell them to go away. You don't want to spend time with them anyway, so it doesn't matter if they are upset by the bluntness and you'll be doing them a favor of they legitimately don't know they're giving off creeper vibes. Some of them don't realize they're doing it, so being told directly will be a wake-up call and they might actually get better some day. If they persist after you directly tell them to go away, threaten to get con security. They won't throw away their badge to stalk you, though if they still persist then actually get con security to get them taken care of. People like that need to get called out on it because they hurt the convention environment and odds are if they're doing it to you they also do it to others who aren't as confident in turning them in.

I know it sucks that you have to be so direct sometimes, but at least my case, I was so focused on other things besides looking for a gf that I never did the whole club and bar scene to go pickup women, because it never interested me, outside of going to heavy metal concerts, but who goes to concerts to find a gf?

Because of that, I never picked up on the subtle cues that the majority of single women use to show interest in a guy.

It isn't the otaku guys intention to frustrate interested girls (or guys if that's your thing) like that, but when you spend a good part of your life being ignored by the opposite (or same sex) after actively trying for a significant other, at some point, you figure out it's a better use of time to focus on more rewarding things.

There's also the issue of misinterpreting subtle things, as >>7278126 put it. The last thing I want to do is completely misinterpret a friendly gesture as flirting, and that leads to more confusion as a result.

I think you're going to find very few people who you're going to run into at anime cons have done "the whole club and bar scene", as that's a lot more of an extrovert's domain and conventions are where introverts go to awkwardly mingle.

That said, don't overthink things. Women are just as nervous, if not more, when it comes to social situations and will be just as likely to miss cues as you are. If you find a woman attractive, just tell her she looks great. If you're having fun hanging out, tell her it's been a lot of fun. Remove her self conscious doubts and she'll at least know you might be interested, so if she's also interested she'll be more likely to reciprocate and eventually one of you will have the guts to blurt it out.

The otaku dating process moves really slowly for many because neither side wants to take a risk and just ask the other one out or say how they feel. We've been rejected (or prejected ourselves without the chanc) before and we don't want to hurt, so we say really non-committal things and always assume no one is interested so we can't be let down. You're going to have to take a risk and be ready to get up and try again when you fail if you ever want to have a chance to succeed.

In my experience con chicks do this way more than con guys. I've actually had my husband make friends with women who've approached him at cons, and when he introduces them to me after we join up again they get upset. One of them actually ended up chewing him out, saying that he shouldn't be so nice to girls when he has a pregnant wife (that one was actually pretty fucking hilarious, I was about 6 months along and the facial expressions she went through were too funny). She even met him while he was with a group of people and they stared at her once she started with her outburst because it was so out there.

I can see why they'd get their hopes up because he's cute and he's always very polite and nice when speaking to women, but some of them have even started thinking he's into them when he's talking to them with me standing right there and I can see all he's doing is being nice.

At NYCC there were so many hot weird girls, oh man, i was overdosing on it. I wish i could have talked to them all!

I complimented a couple but shyness sometimes got the better of me and i'm relatively normalfag when it comes to anime. A very plainly underaged girl shyly approached me and said i was cute and i chatted with a femkakashi and some hot goth chick.

If it's like it is for guys, you simply talk to them. Yea it's weird at first but it always is and it's worth it.

lol, unless you're training for Power Lifting, oly lifting or body building, women don't need to spend that much time lifting in the gym. 4 hours a week is fine. Diet is what is most important. I've been able to work 20 hours a week, play college football (about 30 hours a week of lifting/practice/film) and go to school full time. 4 hours a week is nothing. Eating right is what is more important, and that isn't too difficult either if you do it right. And it's cheaper.

If you actually spend $20 on take-out pizza then you've screwed up pretty badly. It shouldn't ever cost more than $10.

That said, yeah, it's vastly cheaper to make your own food and you'll lose weight doing it. You set your own portion sizes, get exactly the food you want without special orders, know where your food came from, and are a lot more likely to get entire meals with leftovers for the same price or less.

Three types of guys go to speed dating at cons

Those that go as a joke but will fuck you if you're hot enough - don't expect to hear back from them.

Those that go and take it serious - you have a better chance of catching a shiny Xerneas in Pokemon Y.

And Fedoras. 90% will be fedoras.

As for non-speed dating - everyone's right about the take the initiative thing. If females take the initiative it's amazing since it's pretty rare.

Also true that if you're a qt3.14 it will be assumed you're taken since there's an abnormally small amount of cute sane single girls at cons. Even if it's not a small amount it's portrayed that way.

>>7276814
Do what I do. If a girl comes up to you asking for a drink, ask if she's going home with you that night.
It works every time......at saving you money.

Not that person, but honestly if you gather confidence, let yourself be social, and prioritize health and hygiene, you too can get these results. I've dedicated a fair bit of time to getting in shape and taking care of my appearance, which brings with it a sense of self-worth that leads to confidence and ultimately to smoother social interactions. Once you feel good about yourself, you don't make every conversation a desperate attempt to impress someone you consider your better, which people respect a lot more and will get you further.

Pay attention to my wise words! Advice from a slut-chan with over 5 years of con experience:

Always bring your condoms. You’d be surprised by the number of guys who don’t carry them, many of them are virgins.

Be careful with the men you pick. I personally can only feel safe and have a goodv time if I feel like I have control of the situation so I’m always the one who picks guys and not the opposite. (so far never had a problem so I guess I'm doing it right)

Don’t drink too much.

Be careful with guys who have girlfriends, my worst experiences have been with guys who had girlfriends.

Keep your clothes and cosplay simple.

Guys also get worried that you are going to stab and rob them if you invite them to your room, so be careful with your words.

What you need to do is feel like you're worth talking to and like other people would be interested in you. If you're overweight, then losing weight is a good way to reach that point, as you realize that you work harder than most people and your standards and expectations of others to respect that about you go up. The confidence leads to less fear of rejection, more chances taken, and ultimately success.

You can get it from areas other than weight loss, but overall taking care of yourself is a big step toward what you want in life.

>How does one get an otaku bf on a con?
1. Cosplay from an anime currently/recent airing or even better, airing in an upcoming season(be sure to be knowledgeable) as that will be very encouraging to the guy

2. Be friendly and talk to people. Not just the hottest dudes in plain clothes either. Their not otakus/weeb, especially if they aren't carrying anything. They are brodouches looking for a nerdy girl to lay. Look for guys with bags or backpacks that are at panels or booths your typical /a/non would like.

3. Don't have a stinkface. Look happy to be there and not like you're bored or on edge. Some girls don't realize they naturally have a "back the fuck off" face that scares off the betas that make up the majority of con attendees. Smile when talking to a guy you're interested in and appear interested in his conversation even if he's longwinded and super into something. They're otaku, they can get carried away sometimes.

4. If you're looking for a legitimate boyfriend at a con, DO NOT have sex with the guy at the con. Get his number, fb, email, tumblr, kik, etc. but don't do anything explicitly sexual with the guy in those couple of days. This is, of course, assuming you want someone you can actually go see anytime and not LDR. If you screw him first thing, you will not be seen as gf material by any decent guy at a con. You will be pump and dump material. If you're okay with that and just want some fuck, then go ahead but don't say you weren't warned. There are more than enough tripfags on this board that are willing to bang any 5+/10 and never call her again.

That's fine, and I don't see it as unattractive.

I'm also a male, though, so that makes a difference since awkward girls are usually accepted more than awkward guys.

But sure, it's okay with me. I don't mind people being awkward at all. I used to be a lot like it, so I know what works best when it happens and I just hold my tongue until they're done with whatever they're stuttering over, since that's usually the worst part about it.

Probably the same thing every other girl wants.

They're still women, and just because their interests tend to attract the less attractive male doesn't mean that they find the less attractive more attractive.

If you aren't as good looking as the typical male, which being an otaku doesn't automatically place you under, then just be charismatic, confident, reasonably funny, etc.

The big and true secret about what nerds of both genders are actually looking for is this:

They want someone who anyone else would want.

Tall, attractive men with strong facial structure, a good smile, the ability to take center stage in a group conversation, and the confidence to know that he isn't simply settling; he's actually choosing you because he likes you.

Men want pretty girls who take care of their appearance, believe in themselves, and do everything I just said that women look for in guys.

The whole "nerdy" bit is an add-on that makes these beautiful people accessible through shared hobbies and interests. They want to have something in common with these people and they want to do all of their current hobbies with these people, but these similarities aren't what they find attractive; they're what make people they already find attractive not so damn intimidating.

If you really want to know if other people find you attractive or what your chances are with a con guy/girl or anyone else, talk to people in general and see how it goes.

If you're already a nerd then it's easier to break the ice and keep the conversation going when you talk to nerds, but if you don't take care of yourself, build social skills, and channel confidence, then no amount of breathtaking cosplay or anime references or hours logged playing popular videogames will make up for it.

Umm...please don't try to speak for all men. I don't want this at all. I like shy and introverted girls that are of average height and a bit over average weight that don't like taking center stage. Overly enthusiastic and upbeat girls annoy me.
Not everyone thinks like you and that's okay.

Input from a guy: Faces can vary a lot, but generally I've found that the ottermode / athletic type is what girls consider ideal.
Both men and women tend to over-estimate the features they think the opposite sex finds attractive. For men, that largely includes muscle mass and definition.

But of course there's always those who find other body types attractive, as well.

Man, I really thought this was a troll thread to incite us gulls.

As a guy at a con, I've always had fun and whenever I see a women I'd wish to meet, I'd just up to them and say hi. It helps tremendously if there's something I can talk about to break the ice-- if they cosplay I have zero issue going on and either asking about it, asking to take their pic and then getting to know them.

What sometimes is a bit offbrandwish is when they're in groups-- you def need confidence for that. Plus you don't know if they're with a lover or such so :)

Granted, that might have been a bit of an overgeneralization in the details, but the point stands that traits you would find attractive in other women are the same traits you would find attractive in otaku women. Some things, like good hygiene and physical health (even if you prefer a little heavier, that's still a lot better than obesity), are going to be constant positives regardless of other factors. People may be willing to overlook negative things, but giving yourself less negative traits to overlook will help you out in the long run regardless.

I do agree. Sadly I am not one for lack of trying I have an illness that literally eats any weight I have on me because whatever I eat doesn't get absorbed so my body eats itself. and when I tired protein powders and just eating a lot i just got sicker and almost died

I actually twas athletic build for a while and had some good gains and a good routine but I got sick and shed like 20+ pounds in a little less than a year. Probably gonna re reat the /fit/ sticky and maybe ask about a diet or routine that would help (I know this is horrifically off topic)

Honestly, it is pretty easy. I've found most con chicks that are somewhat attractive are easy to talk to/pretty nice. I've just been told by some girls that I intimidated them at first, but even then I've been able to talk to them. I also met my gf of one year for the first time at a con. I'm big/almost bearmode because of sports, but really, 90% of cute girls won't care what your body looks like if you are not fat/not Auschwitz mode and can hold a conversation. It's also important to ask hee questions (where she lives, where she works/goes to school, etc.). The only advantage of being big is SOME girls like that body type, and it's good for having girls come up to you.

I mean, I'm kind of chubby, and my facial aesthetics are average at best. I'm not like fuarkin Zyzz or Jeff Seid either. My body doesn't look that good really, I'm just strong, pic related.

My point is you don't need to be 10/10 facial aesthetics and shredded. If you're just chubby, that isn't to hard to fix, and women are shit at judging height. Most would probably believe you're 5'10 if they are short, and lifting will add wideness by growing your lats, delts, etc and make you appear larger.

I can hold a good conversation and have lots of normalfag friends but making new friends has always been alongside current friends, i feel like i have approach anxiety so if i went to a con alone i'd be afraid that i would be some "loner" if i tried to talk to someone or probably be scared to start a conversation with anyone at all. Usually when i hold a conversation with someone completely new i'm trying hard to think of the best response and how to continue the conversation so there's no awkward silence. I never get these issues when talking to people i already know a little though and can hold a good conversation..

Seeing as none of my friends are into anime/conventions should i just bite the bullet and go alone?

1. Are you ever by yourself for very long at cons? This can have a lot to do with never getting hit on.
2. How often are you around people who are drinking or are you of age to drink? When men are drinking they are more likely to hit on you.
3. Take the initiative, go to a panel and scope out the room for a guy you find cute who looks like he might interest you and get to know him, try going to panels where you can talk to people more. or try "dating" panels (there are anime dating ones and such).

Good luck Anon, I had the same problem.

Yeah but what the fuck am I going to cook with turkey sausage, lentils, tilapia, ground turkey, peanut butter, crackers, and green tea? You need to buy other things to go with them to you know, actually make meals.

I bet all the ingredients to make that pizza and breadsticks are more expensive than $20 at the store. Frozen pizzas are cheaper, though.

Have you ever actually made a pizza before? They cost almost nothing to make. $20 of pizza ingredients could make several pizzas and still have money left over for the breadsticks. You spend $20 on delivery because you can't be assed to do it yourself.
