nn~ i've never really run into that problem...i guess? i suppose once, a boy lied to me about playing a specific series of games to impress me. but still, i don't think its very smart to lie about something just to impress someone.
i guess i'm kinda confused by the stereotype that females, especially attractive ones, don't play videogames...is that the stereotype? either way, i was only recently made aware of this when i moved to the states for the first time and was constantly asked if i _really_ played videogames while i worked at a gamestop...maybe it was just that people who work at game stores don't...play...games...? its confusing. i guess i was so used to the idea of a very attractive schoolgirl in all her short skirt wearing glory, on a train, with her psp, kicking the crap out of other people in monster hunter. or watching a woman in her work outfit and NICE heels beating the crap out of House of the Dead. mm...working woman with shotgun...<3

Never happened to me, I don't socialize much.
I don't lie very much either, whenever someone asks what games I'm into I usually tell the truth, which is "I'll try anything as long as its not a shooter, because my aim is so bad I usually die after a minute. O.O"

I've come across a lot of girls who play just to flirt with guys and such. And it can be a bit embarassing. When I tell guys that I am in fact very good at FPSs and the likes, they don't believe me so I gave up on telling them unless they bring it up in conversation.
It is the same when I talk about sci-fi. They don't believe me.
Though I am yet to meet a girl gamer more attractive than me. *poses and pouts*

Its never knowingly happend to me however I doubt anyone has ever been concerned about impressing me enought to lie about anything
I always assume that anyone I meet is not a gamer. Male and female alike. I even assume that people I work with don't play games recreationally, and I work in the video game industry.
As far as I'm aware, no one has lied to me about their gaming habits, and I know I've never lied to anyone about mine. I openly tell people I work in the video game industry. Generally depending upon their age, their reaction to this can be anywhere from "you're a baby-killer" to "that's ^&*#ing AWESOME!". More often tending toward the latter, really.
Now lying to me about their SKILL, rather than habits? Yes, that happens a lot. For practically any skill you can think of.

In my secondary-education age bracket, being a gamer is seen as terribly uncool. You are sneered at by the kids who smoke behind the sheds after school and they shun you.
Mind you, these afore-mentioned people will die of respiratory failure on the can when they're 30. It's not a good idea to care about their opinions.

I thought this would be about broken promises >.> anyway, doesn't really matter what they look like as long as they're interested in games and have a decent personality that's it looks are a bonus =)

unless we ourselves enjoy gaming as well.Flap Jack452 said:I wouldn't think the attractive girls would waste their times with the gamers
actually, females, and males will fib alittle when it comes to gaining the affection of another, thats just natural.. but to be open, I actually know more women gamers now, than I did 15, 20 years go..
even if they are not running about with a necklace of a blood stained lancer, and the marks of a more....seasoned multiplayer hardcore vet.. more and more and more Have atleast some genre of gaming they love these days
so the odds are they are not totally lying...but they may fabricate on what they prefer to play just to be closer...
but again thats a natural expectation in a relationship...when it comes to more serious things it's give and take, compromising etc
