So where do you meet TF fans?
I have recently been made single.
At this time I'm not particularly inclined to start dating again, but when I thought about it I knew that for me looking for a fellow TF fan it's a buyer's market (I'm a girl and I'm cute), but it also raised the question of where do TF fans search for their prospective significant others? Have you ever picked someone up at a Con? A forum? Some kind of online dating service?

Re: So where do you meet TF fans?
I could probably get you like 50 dates at TransformersCon.
I personally know a couple of TransFans that just got married from meeting through TFW2005 and BotCon.

Re: So where do you meet TF fans?
The topic name and the actual question are 2 different things :P
I can find TF fans by just looking at people or striking up conversations at department stores, at my comic book shop, or on the forums. Finding someone to date with TF interests.....I can't say I know the answer to that one but I suppose its much harder finding a female interested in transformers.

Re: So where do you meet TF fans?
If you find out let me know, I wouldn't mind dating someone who if not shares my interest then at least understands and tolerates it.
Sometimes it can become a lonely existence for we who are so focused and determined to enjoy our hobbies and life in general that we have difficulty in maintaining the happiness levels... Then again, it's also difficult to break away from our small seemingly insignificant lives in order to build a more meaningful one with a significant other. And do please ignore me if I come off as overly critical or something, I tend to ramble on at times when I really should just keep my mouth shut.
But I do believe it is distinctly possible, there's tons of Transfans out there who've had good marriage stories and are raising little transfans even now.

Re: So where do you meet TF fans?
Well, you could try and meet people at conventions. However, meeting someone at a convention isn't really all that different from meeting them somewhere else, and although there's a much greater chance they'll share interests with you, there's also a much greater chance they live far away, which could complicate things. You could "meet" someone on the boards or the web or facebook and then communicate with them for a while, but again, distance may place a factor, and its not as good as a face-to-face meeting IMO. However, you could also find out if there are clubs or groups (either for transformers, or for wider interests, such as anime, toy collecting, etc) in your local area. Try your local college as well. I also recommend striking up conversations at comic shops, and when you're on "the hunt" for toys (sidenote: imagine telling your kids you met their dad fighting over a transformer at Toys R Us), and you might meet someone you like that way.
Do they also have to be a transformers fan? Because I think that limits your search significantly. Get introduced to the friends of your friends, go out to social events, hell, just talk to the guy next to you in line at the store or on the elevator. There's a lot of great guys out there, I'm sure you'll find one.
Anyway, that's my piece.

Re: So where do you meet TF fans?
Personally, I would probably not choose to be with a Transformer fan, I would like whomever I'm with to have a generally different set of interests.

Re: So where do you meet TF fans?
Thats...a pretty wide spectrum of opinion.
Like I said, I'm not really interested in dating at this point in time. I just wondered. For the other comments: I've been to TF Con twice and the hot ones had girlfriends already, sorry about the title confusion, link to a pic: http://photo.theparkside.net/display...lbum=22&pos=15, I'll let you know how I meet them, yes, there is a Target nearby but it SUCKS, no I'm not interested in only TF fans, my French is terrible and I'd hate to insult your GF, here's another pic: http://photo.theparkside.net/display...lbum=124&pos=7, and yeah, I did date someone with different interests and that was the reason he broke up with me.
So thanks for the input.
