Hellos to all strangers who have clicked on to my blog! Name is Jade,like everyone else on Destructoid I love video games, also anime too. My taste in video games varies, I love RPGs,adventure,platformers,RTS and some fighting games. My favorite game of all time is Okami.I would also like to see Threads of Fate 2 made and even Klonoa games, since I had some good memories with those games.Well if you wanna know more about me don't be afraid to ask ^_^!
What else...OH I live in NYC however...I hate living in Queens, but I still love Brooklyn the BEST :D! I was born on July 4th and I've been a gamer since 1994 thanks to my brother <3!I'm currently studying to become a preschool teacher too. Personally there is something about video games I just really love about and I kind of see it like going inside a interactive book that you're playing.
Games I'm currently playing:
Valkyria Chronicles
Mario&Luigi RPG 3
Assassin's Creed 1

Some of the happiest couples I know share a love of videogames, or at least, can partial involve themselves with their SO's interest in medium. The only thing I'd be careful of the people that will date you just for your videogames. I've had two different girlfriends who eventually told me that they were more into Animal Crossing than the were into me.
With guys, I'd imagine the risk of that scenario may be even greater.
Might help.
So, my advice: spend some time hanging out at a local game store. Sure, some of the guys there are probably pretty pathetic, but there's bound to be a few good guys who would love the chance to get to know a girl who knows games.
You need to find middle ground and even after you find it, it is incredibly hard to keep it at that level.
Take my advice, because this is the best advice I was given and it worked:
Np body else is going to be happy with you if you are not happy with yourself. My girlfriend and I have different interests when it comes to gaming. She accepts it, but doesnt love it. And I accept shit like Twilight, but I don't love that either.
Still, I love and respect her and you will find that trivial shit like gaming has nothing to do with keeping a healthy relationship. In the end, it is all about compatibility
Just, keep your eyes open and don't settle. Get something you actually want. And if times get tough and you start to feel sad about being alone, a strong friendships and a group of people to hang out with helps so much.
Be sure to come out to the next Dtoid NY group. Were good people and we will help you forget your worries.
Around these parts, it's pretty tough to find a girl worth a damn, let alone one that gives a damn about games. We're a bit short on arcades and gaming hangouts, and I don't think I've ever seen a girl in GameStop, other than a mom buying her kid some crappy movie game. I'll never give up hope, even after I've given up.
Common interests help a relationship... but common respect and love for the other person as they are is the basis for a long lasting relationship in my opinion.
*kills self*

That is, I can identify. But yeah, come to one of our DtoidNY events and you'll probably be drunk and hooking up in the bathroom in no time. That's a relationship, right?
