So I've been seeing this new girl, right (Inb4 all fag/ugly/childrapist jokes) and one of my friends brought up kdice last night at the bar. So I had to briefly explain, and new girl was severely unimpressed. Apparently, she used to date this guy who was obsessed with world of warcraft, and so is not friendly towards the idea of internet gaming.
I tried to explain that kdice is like playing online poker, not WOW, and that anyway I quit, but it seemed like the better idea to just stop talking. Anyway, kdice is in no way a deal-breaker in this new "relationship," should I even bother trying to convince/explain it to her or just relinquish myself to knowing she'll always associate me with her dork/metalhead/worldofwarcraft ex? I don't know if I can handle that. |

at 3:29 PM, Friday April 3, 2009 EDT Interesting Q.
I would warn you against is being apologetic about playing. (I don't get this vibe from you, but just warning you anyway.) One thing that is a bigger turn-off for most girls than being a geek is not standing up for yourself. Instead say "Yeah, I play that game a lot, and I fucking kick ass at it. Now suck my huge cock." (Ok disregard that, I'm drunk. But apart from that last sentence it's good advise.) If I were your friend I would briefly mention to her that kdice is not a semi-brainless game like wow, and succeeding at it at your level requires some serious smarts. This is true, but it's difficult to say yourself since it's bragging. If I were you, I would probably just mention that it's an intellectual game as opposed to roleplaying, and then not bring it up anymore. |

at 3:50 PM, Friday April 3, 2009 EDT if the chick doesnt dig kdice, and you dig the chick... chick > kdice, imo. call me a wuss.
the one time i tried to share/explain kdice to my wife was about 15 minutes after midnight on dec 1st 2007, after i stole pet's 3rd place that month. i was all excited and explained to her how it all happened. she yawned, said something like, why the hell are you playing an online game instead of pwning my uterus. then i realized that not only did she not care, but she also decided that any time i spent kdicing was a waste of time, when i could be pwning her uterus, mowing the lawn, mowing her lawn, etc, etc.... so, if the chick is the type that doesnt give a shit about online games because 1) it makes no sense that you want to compete over nothing (i.e. you get no $$$ out of this), and 2) if you find a lot of fulfillment from online community relationships... well, then you better sweep that shit under the carpet. shed probably rather hear you brag about making $$$ and getting promotions and graduating from the motherfucking university of thomas jefferson's badass self. although, in the end, you might be happier with sams girlfriend, she is cool with him playing late night tourneys on the last day of the month. i say fly to california on april 30th and look her up. she should be free and looking to procreate with a winner. |

From your post it is unclear. |
