| I always knew how, I just wanted to have more real-life situations in the MAL forums. People are fake af online. Me I try to be as close to the real me as possible. What you get here is probably what you'd get IRL. Just a little less weebie :PIf I wasn't working 70+ hours a week right now I would be posting like I was when I was on the forums 18 hours a day. I was on so much @deg was like do you even sleep?!? and nah i really didn't Honey_Flash said: If I was in college I'd def join a club like that. I'm glad you started one and were able to make friends that way. I wish I could have made friends like that. It's still really hard finding genuine normie-weebie girls like myselfYeah, maybe join a dating site that allows you to narrow down people by common interests. Im pretty sure lots of dating sites do that, and I imagine there has to be at least one that lets you do that with anime. If not that, then why not join an anime club? Are you in college at all? I run my college’s anime club, which I low key started as a way to make friends and meet new people. I’ve met many people who I otherwise might have never spoken to if not for the club. Hell, I met my ex boyfriend through starting that club. I wouldn’t have been able to start it without his help. That relationship didn’t last, but it does go to show how things can happen through gathering people together who share a common interest. Wait, never mind. Looks like you found somebody. Lmao. Well, my advice still stands. I’ll just be sure to read more thoroughly through threads from now on. It’s great that things seem to be working out! Good for you, man! I'm also super picky and very particular when it comes to traits and appearance in my significant other Thanks for coming in and giving advice honey senpai (ouran host club ref) still searching for a girl who likes anime as much as me maybe the con is my best bet but those don't happen often |

| The vast majority of people who would even use a site like that are the kind of cringey people nobody would want to date. That's like going to a speed dating thing at a convention like comic con or something; you're basically guaranteeing that you're only going to be getting fish from the bottom of the barrel. If someone is really into anime and using online dating sites they should just use a normal site and put the fact that they happen to like anime on their profile along with all their other hobbies. Not like it's something to be embarrassed about (especially when next to a bunch of other interests). No use hiding it either since your potential partner is gonna find out anyway and regardless it's best to be open about what you like since the more interests you share with a potential partner the better since you're looking not just for a lover but for a best friend (and that's almost always someone you have a lot in common with). |
| Finding people that actually feel worth sticking with long-term certainly isn't easy, especially if you have some non-mainstream condition attached to it. Most guys that message me just want sex with no strings attached which is not exactly what I'm looking for either. The best you can do is just keep trying new places and approaches as best you can. It may not work but doing nothing most definitely won't get you anyone at least, that's for sure |

Yeah I knew full well it was kind of a dick statement but it does still hold true. I don't really care about looks or social adeptness all that much and agree it's silly to put people in leagues in terms of dating but I and most people certainly care enough where a site like that (or heck the videos above of convention speed dating similar to what I mentioned) would be filled with people who wouldn't be the right fit for most. But different strokes for different folks. It's not like there's a right or wrong answer to what one is looking for in a partner, it's just I'd imagine most people would find most of the people who would use a site like that to not be their type. So if you'd be looking for a "normal" person into anime you'd just put it as an interest on your dating profile at a normal site or look for it on other peoples' profiles; or just find someone with several similar interests since there's a good chance they like anime too but just didn't want to put it on their profile. |
Kyotosomo said: Ah okay. But then, this applies to people who don't look for people who are extremely or way more into modern Japanese, pop-culture, but rather to those, who are i.a. also into it.It's not like there's a right or wrong answer to what one is looking for in a partner, it's just I'd imagine most people would find most of the people who would use a site like that to not be their type.

But personally, I find the over-fixation on common interests a bit shallow. Even if you don't have any common interests at all, you can still enjoy being with someone. |
| If such an app existed it would be just like any other dating app out there. Half of the people would be on just to see what kind of people are on. The other half would have zero intention of meeting up. In my experience most of the people get to know or at lest make more friends at conventions. Its sure a time and effort thing, some of use live nowhere near close to an anime con, let alone have the time off or money to attend. But there is also the vast majority that simple don't go with the intention of getting a date. 96% of the girls just want to have fun and enjoy the convention. The last thing on their mind is having some dude hounding around them trying to ask them out. But then again, I do know of a couple that meet at AX and got married 3 years back So theres that. |

I think people greatly underestimate how important it is (as well as your partner being at roughly the same intellectual level as you). This is someone you're going to be talking with for potentially the next 50 or so years; that's an insanely long time to talk with someone all day everyday and still always have something new/stimulating to talk about lol. And whilst far from impossible (personalities that mesh well together can go a long way), it's still going to be a lot harder to keep things going if you don't have a lot in common with your partner. |

Kyotosomo said: Having similar values, a similar mindset and a similar level of intellect is another matter altogether from having similar interests or likes/dislikes. I agree with the former three (values, mindset, intellect) being important, but not with the latter two (interests + likes/dislikes).I think people greatly underestimate how important it is (as well as your partner being at roughly the same intellectual level as you).
