It's nice to find a lady friend who also has a habitual games/anime habit.
I haven't known that yet. I've dated prissy girls and a few high maintenance chicks.

I agree..finding a fellow female shut in with a gaming or anime habit would be ideal. I've yet to find one though.
Here's what you do. Make friends with a girl first so you know she's cool, then ask her out later. Simple.Says the guy with literally 0 experience
That normally doesn't work. Most girls separate their guy friends from their love interests. Once you pick one you kinda can't switch to the other unless you get incredibly lucky. It usually just ends in a broken friendship and hurt feelings.
I said gaming/anime habit, not shut in. You can separate the two.
I have to start hanging out in the circles where there are female anime fans and female gamers.
Oh well sorry, if I could I would just order everything I need off of Amazon and be done..sadly..I cannot do that.

Whys it weird? Nerd shit means what? Pokemon? Anime?
I've known girls who were bookworms and big on academics in JHS and K-6.

I dont know the hard and fast rules for female cosplayers, so I imagine I'll be trying to flirt with one and some asshole will try to rush in and save Her.
Do people around where you live give you shit for liking anime?

Yeah I'll just kind of mention what I am going through. The girl I still like I will probably always like her but I am trying to see if I like other girls. Problem is every girl that I kind of like is either taken, or is slightly crazy...I mean one punched her computer and broke it because it was being slow...SO slowly feeling like I missed the train in some ways.

Nah it's cool. I mean it's totally what I prefer since just going up to a random girl seems weird and doesn't appeal to me as you don't know what they're like or what they're into, but I can recognize this isn't how all relationships work and it might not happen
I'm sure it's like anything else, be friendly and don't skeez on them for what they're wearing. And I haven't gotten that but then again I don't really talk about what I like ever.

On the rare day that I do encounter a girl I like I talk to them different then I would one of my female friends. Usually by the end of the conversation I know if I like her or not and ask for her number and then depending on how much I clicked with her I text her and continue conversing.
Oh some a bit but others after hanging out with them I realize no. The only really sad part is that the one girl I might like looks just like my ex so I'm trying to not like her for that reason...
That honestly really sucks..the only advice I can really give you is to just lame it out and try to drown out those feelings and find someone else. I mean you got us. So you're not alone in this.

If I was the same person I was a year ago, I could barely talk to anyone, let alone admit I liked videogames. I was actually seriously reluctant to admit I liked games unless the other person did too. Anime was like admitting I killed people.And I haven't gotten that but then again I don't really talk about what I like ever.

Being open and honest about who you are helps a shit ton with stress and helps meet people. Just having my keys on a Miku lanyard has started conversations and I've met people through that.
You would not believe the amount of girls I've talked to while wearing my Attack on Titan backpack just around town. If you see someone wearing something related to something you like, just compliment them on it and start talking, shit's easy. Did that with a girl and her Full Metal Alchemist hoodie just last week and ended up having a ten minute conversation about anime.

Talk to the girl and be open and friendly, if you like her at the end of the conversation ask to exchange numbers wait till later in the day or the next day then message her.

That doesn't sound prissy.
Washing your hands isn't Prissy. Maintenance men I work with do it everyday before they leave for home.
Being clean/meticulously organized has been stranged considered to be a gay thing, which I find incredibly stupid. I wish I had the wherewithal and patience to keep my room and place clean and presentable for people all the time. It bothers me that I get home and I'm too tired to straighten up to a T.

Prissy just means being overly proper or persnickety about certain things. I'm very particular about a lot of things and lambaste people for being so sloven.
