Video games can be tough. Playing the hardest setting, earning every achievement. Unlocking the secret ending. Many game titles were worth the extra effort, and the ability to play through the game again on an even harder difficulty presented a challenge readily accepted......if we thought it was worth it.

Dating is astronomically difficult. Women today have no clue what they want in their early 20's, and guys with a good head on their shoulders focus on career and personal life goals to build a life they eventually want to share.

Charming a women is easy. It's all body language and confidence. Finding a women worth my time, my emotional investment, and eventually to share a life with feels, at times, impossible.

Geoff and Anna are an inspiration.

Beautiful is a powerful word, a scared word. It's set apart from our day to day vernacular. Yes, some use it in their literary library of sarcasm or slang, but for all of us when someone says something is beautiful, we can see it in their eyes. Anna listens. She makes others feel comfortable and confident because she is. It is a treasure to have her in the world of eSports. Anna is beautiful.

Geoff iNcontroL. The moment I saw this guy on State of the Game I KNEW that eSports would cater to mainstream. Here is an intellectual, witty, and talented player that breaks ignorant stereotypes of the mainstream when it comes to lovers of video games. Our kindness and respect towards each other reciprocates at each event. He is the ultimate gamer and will be the ultimate husband.

The dating game? They beat that. High score. It was a journey that doesn't end but continues anew in marriage. And marriage, my friends, is how you win the game of life.

Congratulations Anna & Geoff

He's the best.

They're not married yet, but within a couple of weeks (i think).

I like the sentiment.

Don't like the message.

Charming a women is easy. It's all body language and confidence. Finding a women worth my time, my emotional investment, and eventually to share a life with feels, at times, impossible.


Its not astronomically difficult. Its doable but just like everything else in life you have to work for it. Meet girls when you're doing errands, when you hang out with friends or set up an online profile if you want. Turn yourself into an attractive man. But I know the reasons why it seems hard and difficult, I've been there and still are. But you persevere, you keep at it because you know at the end, it will be worth it.

Also I don't see why marriage should be 'winning the game of life'.

I think that Anna and Geof are a good model for a lot of nerd couples. I think it can be difficult be they balance out their lives pretty well. I hope their wedding and honeymoon and holidays are troll free. Incontrol deserves it!

I agree with the last point you make but I do agree with the OP that proper dating very difficult. It's not difficult to get girls but to find one who is capable of talking about the relationship, who knows what she wants and who isn't fickle/insecure or a total bitch is pretty difficult.

I don't like girls, they don't turn me on anymore. Young women, they do.

Last point being my reference to marriage not winning the game?

I think you're confusing difficult with hard work. You work hard to build a good career/business/product, you work hard at skills to improve, dating isn't any different. I don't find it difficult to meet women who aren't total bitches and everyone has their insecurities, some deal with them better than others. If however you're constantly falling in love with total bitches or extremely insecure women, what does that say about you?

One could say the equivalent about men. Just sayin' - women aren't the singular factor making relationships "difficult".

EDIT: OP's attitude works both ways. Perhaps the reason he has difficulty finding women who are "worth his time" is that those women don't consider him worth their time.

T__T Why is it the woman who has to be worth your time? Why isn't the guy who has to be worth our time too? A relationship is 50/50!

I agree with Fractals; marriage does not mean winning. Some marriages will crash and burn -- that doesn't seem like winning to me.

So I was thinking you were a guy for a second, then I realised you weren't ahaahaha. Was going to write something tailored for a male.

Well the assumption here is that you're building yourself to be a valuable man, someone who can (potentially) provide, connect and love a woman. Plus all the qualities like being open, honest, secure, confident etc. Horses for courses though, each girl has their own set of expectations and desires.
