Mainers who are 18-35 generally move to Massachusetts to hookup, find relationships, and eventually marry. When they are ready to spawn they swim back to Maine and then lay eggs.
Also, I have many friends with interests similar to yours, and you gotta understand this: it will be inherently hard for straight men who like anime and video games to find a gf and it will be inherently easy for straight women who like the same things to find a bf due to gender demographics of these hobbies.
If you want to find a mate, keep your current hobbies, but *add new hobbies*, especially ones that are mostly done by straight women. For example: fashion, sewing, cosplay, knitting, crocheting, equestrian, animal rescue.

Can confirm, currently in the Maine/Massachusetts reproductive cycle, my Massachusetts mate and I will marry in Maine and then we will be planning the return up the great river I95 to spawn in the next few years or so. This maintains the state’s genetic diversity.

Can confirm I grew up in Massachusetts and have mated with a native Mainer. We moved to maine together to spawn.

I really hope this is satire.
OP, please do not take dating advice from this person.

I mean, having lived in both Maine and Mass for multiple years, his comment is relatively in line with what I experienced.
What part are you concerned about? I’m pretty sure OP will know that the egg laying thing was most likely a joke.

Yes, you're right. It's close to impossible for a straight male in Maine to find a partner without either moving to Mass or lying about their interests.
Creepy pickup artist shit is the best.
AnUnderratedComment t1_je32orx wrote
Pretty sure developing new interests was the suggestion, not lying about fake ones.
Is that right?
Anyway, do you live in Maine? Most folks I know there bitch about this issue all the time. They’d all get a good laugh out of the guy’s comment. Mainers have very thick skin and as a group tend to enjoy pretty rough humor. Not sure why you are taking it so hard.

Dude, I am stoned AF trolling Reddit.
Very well apparently.

And I am stoned AF cruising Reddit looking for folks to aimlessly argue with.
Hope to catch you again on another thread sometime. Have a good night.

Stoned and looking for a fight? I think they’re doing something wrong.

Totally agreed. Lie to ladies so they'll hook up with you? Wtf

Wow. You think that's all women are into?

Also farmers markets

That's one of the best ideas yet.
demalo t1_je4f5vq wrote
So op doesn’t have to argue, “some examples” was said. Please offer other examples, it will help elevate the conversation. I know woman who enjoy movies, are foodies, fishing, hiking, etc.
raynedanser t1_je4gk3b wrote
Exactly. Fishing. Hiking. Four wheeling. Back packing. Camping. I also know women that weld and do body work and are mechanics.
Maybe try suggesting things with a bit more variety than the old fashioned, "traditional" women hobbies? Broaden those ideas too.

Interesting view, I'll keep that mind.

Bruh what? No, go fishing, camping, ride some motorized outdoor vehicle. Go out to eat, go out and socialize in general. Women like men who like to go do shit not be stuck inside all the time.

I would say would confidence that most Mainers don't go to massachusetts to get married. The vast majority of people outside of Portland end up with someone that went to their high school, just like most of rural america.

It sounds cliche, but most people can find someone to love within 50 miles of where they live. It’s not a hard rule, or fair one, but it’s a consistent one.

This only works if you are the same socioeconomic class, religion, political ideology, ethnic group, and sexual orientation as most people around you.
