I have rarely read a comment that is so full of absolute rubbish as that.
Incredible.

Hard generalisation.
I assume you have given a read for the study “The Association Between Video Gaming and Psychological Functioning” published online by Frontiers in Psychology. Your argument has much similiarities with it. However, I would’ve linked it here, but for some reason I can’t include links in my post.
That study gives an awfully easy way to narrow down things.
Most people irl have garbage personalities too.
I’ve only met a handful of dead boring girls on tinder though, rest were just as average as every other person i’ve ever been with.
The entire point of tinder is sex like what 
If you got ghosted by people on tinder that’s a you problem 
As far as i know he will be back in November 
As for WoW and dateing i have met a gf and bf through WoW just do not trust them with gold though 
But OP really get out and meet somebody close to you ,not saying WoW cant work it has done many times but this is the wrong place to get much valid input .

I will cast down your Codex and bask in the dying agony of those who hold it dear! 
Since when is “preference for solitude” a mental issue LOL? Are you on drugs? Not even discussing the rest of this trashy statement…
Put link between two ` (the key under Esc, left of 1) and it’s good enough to use.
On the topic: Met several couples in WoW. Some better, some worse. The one constant was that if both also were in one “endgame” group (raiding, M+, guild, PvP bigger than 2v2, what have you) then inevitably drama ensued. Been there, eaten popcorn. Because people do screw up, and when someone else turns logic off and starts defending them just because “it’s my bf/gf/whatever, they can do no wrong”, it’s a recipe for disaster. Preventive measures: DON’T let immature couples in your guild/raid/party if it’s serious or you don’t have a wish for overly emotional shouting matches. Saves a lot of time & drama.
Indeed. Unless you both are hypercompetitive veterans with skin toughened by countless nights spent wiping & yelling & swearing at each other, losing several Arena matches in a row will kill your relationship DEAD. Guaranteed.
Yep. Playing the same game, or doing anything at all together, might help, but also might end in both hating each other’s guts. If two people like, understand & support each other, then they don’t need anything else to be together. If they do, the moment this connection is taken away something is going to crash, and they were never a real couple, just gaming buddies with some additional shared pastimes.

gamer girls are freaky or crazy. just stick with the normal ones, unless you are into it…
Never had a problem with that, I usually am rather transparent about my habits and what I like, if a possible partner dislikes my habits then it’s their problem (unless I’m doing something unhealthy, but that is usually not the case). I mean if I have to not do something to be with another person, then it’s not the right person for me. I usually am rather lucky tho, I never really had this kind of problem. And if they join me in my habits it’s even better, as long as I can join and enjoy most of their habits too.
I don’t date people online tho, it’s something I don’t like (I can’t use tinder too for this reason, atleast for now, maybe in a couple of years who knows).
Ofc we all are but without us the forums would be very dull …

That study is finding correlation between potential problematic videogame use and those issues. So it is not about “people that full-time play games” but it is about people who cannot control their gaming, which is very different thing. And correlation between problematic videogame usage and other cognitive/social/mental health issues is quite natural to have because problematic videogame use is similar problem for those others, all probably having some common reason causing them.
Here is link to the study you talked about:
Von Der Heiden, J. M., Braun, B., Müller, K. W., & Egloff, B. (2019). The association between video gaming and psychological functioning. Frontiers in psychology , 10 , 1731.

But yeah, most addictions are bad for you in some way. Not trying to defend gaming in some way but problems like that can come from so many other sources in life.
If all u do is sit inside and play games there are other things u should worry about ngl.
Weird, never been ghosted by anyone on tinder in my life, definitely seems like a you problem chief.
I personally wouldn’t talk to a lot of people on these forums for the way they probably behave irl.
I just wanna be ur boo 
Gaming is just a hobby, like any other.

Most likely it is yes. Shame it got such a negative connotation.
