This is Jessica ----------------------------------------------^
^-----------------------This is arcade cabinet for Mr. Do's Castle
You may know her from the Internet-famous photo of her licking a PlayStation Portable or from her IGN Strategize videos. But, while Jessica Chobot's advice on how to land on Geometry Wars' high score leaderboards may earn you e-cred, it won't help you avoid being the "weird webcam guy" on Xbox Live or the guy who randomly messages and dances with female avatars in PlayStation's Home.
Which is why we are starting a new bi-weekly dating column with her. The IGN video hostess and writer knows a thing or two about dungeon crawling, but she's also picked up a few tips on finding the key to a girl's heart. (Believe it or not, it's not hidden within a smashable box or given as a reward after slaying a dragon.) Send your burning dating questions to maximaskjessica@gmail.com and check back on February 19 to see what this gamer chick has to say.

Im a 22 year old college student, single father... Im interested in finding someone, however I find it difficult to approach girls due to the fact that i have a kid. He doesnt need a mom, hes got one. Should I not tell them, Should i just wait a few years until im out of school to start dating, or are there women out there who can handle it. How should I handle it? Please help Thanks

I am 33 and never been able to start or go up to a female and that is disturbing. I dont know how to start a conversation with anyone unless it is in the workplace. Sure I do say "Hi", Hello or how are you and that is about it. I would appreciate any suggestions you might give me

Every time I play World of Warcraft I always create a female character. I am currently leveling up my NightElf Druid, do I have issues with my gender? Am I a women inside? or am I wish all women look like my NightElf?

Hey Jess,
Long time reader, first time writer. I must know, where did you find that amazing shirt? It really compliments you.
I am sure all of my relatuonship problems could be solved if I could only find a place that sold B.A gaming-related gear like that.
Thanks Chobotenator-
All the best,
Kino

My question is, why do women seem drawn to the #$%&@. Case in point. My best friend's wife slept with another guy...and she would prefer him, as opposed to my friend. This baffles me, I guess I come off as a #$%&@...cause I try to be all gentlemanly to women, and they want the #$%&@. I need advise...I mean, do I become the #$%&@, or continue to play a nice guy?

Sup Jess,
I myself have hit a recent dry spell. I have gone on some dates but the last one was pretty bad because a buddy of mine introduced me to them and we went out to a movie. She wanted to bring her friend akwardness ensued though on the way there and back. I even found it hard to engage them in a conversation because they were interacting as much as a brick wall. But they had no problem about yapping to each other about how much they were better than so and so. Drove me crazy anways any advice as to engaging or trying to engage women?
