How to Meet Gamers
This guide is for anyone who wants to meet other gamers, whether as friends, teammates or something more. It covers where gamers are, how to start a conversation and how to take it further. Like most things, it works best when you are friendly, patient and honest about what you want.
Start where gamers already are
Join the online communities, forums and chat servers around the games you play. Take part in conversations before you ask for anything, so people get to know you.
Be a good teammate first
Be on time, be positive and be kind when things go badly. People remember who made a match fun.
Go to events
Game nights, tournaments, conventions and board game evenings are places where people already share an interest. A shared hobby makes the first conversation easy.
Use a site made for it
A dating site for gamers means everyone is there for the same reason. On Gamer Dating you can build a free profile, say what you play and browse members.
Start with a game question
Ask what someone is playing, what they would recommend or what they are looking forward to. It is easy to answer and it leads somewhere.
Take it from online to real life carefully
When you are ready to meet, choose a public place, tell a friend where you are going and arrange your own way there and back. Keep personal details to yourself until you trust the person.
