Local Game Shop

What better way of possibly meeting someone than at a place you both might frequent. Conversation is as easy as finding out what types of games one might play and what they think about the current news in the gaming world. We've known people that started long-lasting relationships from meeting like this, and some of my best female friends I met at local game shops.

Online MMOs

There are so many stories of couples meeting while playing an online MMO like World of Warcraft. Joining a guild and building positive online relationships is always a plus, and the constant gaming session with a small group of people tends to draw certain people together in some surprising ways.

MOBAs

The new kid on the block, the MOBA scene can be a harsh one, but finding cool people to socialize online with is possible. Get on a forum for your game of choice and just start interacting with the community. You never know who you might meet in the process.

Facebook Groups

A great way to meet other like-mined people is to join a Facebook group for the game you play. Even better is finding a group in your area so that you can meet up with people for lan party sessions along with food and drinks. It's also a lot more fun playing with people at a single location like a gaming bar or game store to build IRL relationships.

5

Gaming/Comic Conventions

There is nothing better than a bunch of people getting together to celebrate something they love. And there is no better place to meet new people than at activities during conventions! Sure, there are the singles mixers that always pop up at these things, but the best thing to do is just go out with some friends to the local meetups after the conventions close for the night.

At The Local Barcade

Barcade's seem to be everywhere nowadays, and that's a fantastic thing if you are over 21. What better way to enjoy an evening than to grab some friends, enjoy a few drinks, and play some classic arcade titles. You never know who might drop in as your player two and kick of something special.

7

Online Dating Site

Online dating is now pretty much the norm. And while there are dating sites that are super narrow-focused and target only farmers, Christians, and even gamers, your best bet are the standard dating sites. It's easy to see what people like to do in their spare time and talking about video games is a great icebreaker.

All Around You

Look, guys, it's 2018 and the world is a very different place than it was in the late '90s. Everyone plays video games nowadays, and women make up roughly 50% of the gaming sphere as it is. Just get out of our comfort zone and strike up a causal conversation with someone every now and then.

At the end of the day the best thing isn't to go out looking for a girlfriend/boyfriend that plays video games, but to play video games and meet someone because of it. The more focus you place on finding someone, the more awkward you tend to become outwardly because of it.

When you can place finding someone out of your mind and simply enjoy what you do with people, others will be drawn to you. The best relationships just sort of happen, so just have fun and play games.
