Love: Is it possible?

[eseamir]

I didn't like the concept of dating when I was a teenager because I thought they were dumb to invest time into when the failure rate was so high so I didn't end up dating anyone until I was at university

relationship inexperience mixed with the fact that I had chronic low self esteem and basically didn't believe that people could genuinely like me led to a couple awful relationships that basically took up my entire late teens to mid-twenties where I relationship hopped to people I wasn't really fully interested in but I liked the fact that they were interested in me (altho I was always expecting them to realise I was awful and leave me) and that was not a great foundation for any relationship

my current partner (we just got engaged this year) was basically the first person I actually fell head over heels for, we had a super rocky first year because neither of us was really ready for what a real serious adult long term relationship required and we had a lot of personal development and growth to go through but we pushed each other to be better people and I'm so grateful for it

he doesn't play AC except for if theres a bug off (hes a leo so he loves the competition haha) but I don't think that really matters. I think you find someone whose soul attracts you and then everything else fits in around that

For me it's not possible. I recently turned 26 and I've never been in a relationship or had any kind of romantic experiences. I will most likely die alone without even having a first kiss. I try not to think about it too much so it doesn't depress me again.

If I ever did get in a relationship, I wouldn't care if they played animal crossing. Right now I'm having fun with it, but I've never stayed with an animal crossing game for this long before. New Horizons is the first game I've played every day, but I have no idea how long it will keep my interest so I wouldn't want to base a relationship on it.

I think love is possible! But I don't experience romantic love. I don't feel attracted to people in that way right now. As long as I'm happy, I'm good!

I already have a bf but no matter how much I try to get him into it, he just refuses. He thinks AC is boring . Considering breaking up LOL. Kidding!

I'm an ancient 36 year old woman and found my beloved man years ago in 2004. He's not into ACNH, but he's a gamer, so there's that!

i desperately need a man to cuddle me ;c

Me and my partner used to play New Leaf together back in the day when we first started dating but now he doesn't have a switch so we haven't been able to play NH together. We've been together for over 9 years now so we must be doing something right. Don't wanna jinx it though haha

Nevermind. I’m still trying to sort out the bad memories and regrets. I answered it doesn’t matter to me now. I have a friend I like but he doesn’t like me back. it used to upset me, but now it doesn’t. I just want to be with my cats and mom, though I don’t want us to move either :/.

Although I’m currently single, it doesn’t matter to me if my S/O plays animal crossing or not.

It’s just a hobby. There are way more important things to care about in a relationship. Like shared values and morals, and agreement on the fact that the Hobbit movies are despicable.

Been with my boyfriend over 4 years now and he has no interest in animal crossing at all lol. He’s more into MOBAs, FPS’s, and RPGs, (so pretty much anything BUT animal crossing LMAO) but I don’t mind at all because I play a wide variety of games too! I tend to get burnt out on animal crossing quickly anyways so I only play it in small amounts, so I couldn’t care less if he were to ever play it or not.

My current boyfriend is more of a casual video game player and is more curious about Animal Crossing than a hardcore fan like me, but that's perfectly fine with me! He introduced me to a few games that are now some of my favorites games (Witcher 3, AC: Black Flag, AC: Origins, DA: Inquisition) and I'm very grateful that he did so! Plus it's been fun watching him play Horizon Zero Dawn too!

Even though I'm happy we have a video game hobby in common, it's probably the least important thing in our relationship. I think his kindness, respect, calm demeanor, and love for cooking means more to me than video games.

 

[visibleghost]

lol, I majorly misunderstood the question, I thought you were asking if love, like generally, is possible and I thought you were a little bit pessimistic with this but x)

I identify as aromantic, so I doubt I will ever be in a relationship. But if I were to get into a relationship... I wouldn't be able to be in a relationship with someone who had no interest in even listening to me speak about animal crossing because I like to speak about it and if someone is all like "k, idc" I don't think I would want to be in love with them. However, I don't think they would need to love animal crossing themself.

 

[Lady Timpani]

Having a partner that plays AC or even video games in general isn't all that important to me! It'd be nice if it were something we could enjoy together, but there are always other hobbies, and it can be fun just to be near someone and do your own thing.

 

[Uffe]

At this point in life, I'm not so sure. On here? Probably not.

As someone who got engaged over a year ago to a beautiful, amazing woman, I can definitely say true love is real without a doubt. <3 Like @LadyDestani said, love comes in various forms since everyone's love language is different (for some, it is verbal affirmation while it is being given stuff, etc.). As someone who felt like they didn't fit because of their beliefs, etc. at one point (which all turned out to be BS reasons in the end), there always will be someone out there that complements you in various aspects and all you can do is be yourself and strive to be the best you. Trust me, someone will notice eventually and see and love you for who you really are (also, it works both ways so don't be afraid to reach out yourself to someone that is special in your eyes).

ive been w my bf for almost a year, and he got ac just so he could share an interest w me and he actually really likes it! im glad he gave it a chance. i do think love is possible, it just has to be with the right person and you share a special connection and bond with them.

Very well-said!

I'm someone who definitely needed a guy, and I was happy to find one at a relatively young age.

I'm terrible socially in just about every other type of relationship...but the marriage thing, thankfully that worked out Very happy with my spouse/mate!

 

[EpicGamer12]

I met my wife in high school and we've been married for half a year now I introduced her to AC and now she plays it more than me! I know anyone can find love, but sometimes people just aren't ready for long term relationships. That's perfectly fine and just a part of being your own person

 

[xSuperMario64x]

I'm in a weird situation cause I'm ace/aro and yet I would still like to be in a relationship w someone so obviously only a close platonic relationship... I'll prob never find anyone lmao

that being said, idm if they don't play AC but I would love to find someone who likes video games since that's a big part of who I am. if they don't like video games (or even Nintendo games for that matter) then I don't think we can mingle lol
