In all fairness, and in actuallity, what these females are really saying is their number 1 choice is always the man that showers them with otaku like obsession as long as it doesn't turn into stalking. They will tolerate only a certain amount of their partner's other obsessions as long as it takes a back seat to their own. :wink:


So Mohawk52, let me see if I get the gist of what your saying. So basically, as long as the guy makes sure to pay attention to her, her interests and makes sure he doesn't go overboard with his own "otaku" hobbies" you make the relationship work?

Sounds fair to me, seeing as in life you can find equilibrium your more likely to have success. Yet in general, equilibrium is a good to have anyway though.

Got it in one me laddy, it's always a question of balance. 34 years of marrage has taught me this. Wink

No video game otaku? I guess I sometimes forget girls watching anime is far more common than girls playing video games.
