Love Plus “Practice” for Real Love

rinko-sukumizu-strip-by-mino-taro.jpg

Love Plus can serve as good practice for having a real girlfriend, says someone with no girlfriend.

Quoth Asahi:

One 21-year-old Tokyo salaryman was buying goods at a seaside fireworks show. It was his third time there, he said: “It’s fun experiencing the game world together with the real one.”

He has a girlfriend in the game now, but no real one. “I think this might be good practice for when I can get a real girlfriend” he says. He intends to spend more time at a hotel next month with another Love Plus player.

Whilst it has often been called an “alternative” to real women, this is perhaps the first time it has been called mere practice for one.

Just whether any of this practice at doting over a DS is any use in securing a real mate is quite another question.

    still love plus doesn't provide sex content... it make the practice "unreal"... fufufufu... on the other hand it also doesn't provide the option for your waifu to cheat on you... so it's still a plus...

    On (or perhaps in) the other hand is the guys penis.

    Also if you need practice to understand how to treat a girlfriend then clearly they had no friends in the first place.

    you mean "The World Only God Knows" if so i do think it could be useful as practice but getting urself too consumed in it is bad. I think "The World Only God Knows" shows how playing date games is supposed to help men get girls not over fantasizing over 2D girls.

    It's like to call watching pr0n practice for real sex. You'll make some... expectations that maybe won't be met.

    Women are really complex. Their genitals are little blocks that move all the time...

    And when you touch the blocks, they scream and say "itai". Sometimes, there would also be water coming out of the blocks.

    ~"Just whether any of this practice at doting over a DS is any use in securing a real mate is quite another question."

    Silly Sankaku. It's a five step system. He, like so many, have only just started.

    Step One: Master the women of the DS.
    (There are many. It's like Pokemon.)
    Step Two: Master the female robots of Japan.
    (They have robots you know.)
    Step Three: Use everything learned in previous steps to fail in real life.
    (Warning: Steps One & Two may have been stacked in your favor as women should not be treated the same as virtual women)
    Step Four: Beg your DS to take you back.
    (You should cry. And a poem! Your DS will love a good poem.)
    Step Five: Live the rest of your life in obscurity.
    (Repeat steps one through four until realizing this is your only viable option if you actually chose to do the first four steps in the first place.)

    lol. It can't.

    I mean, it's in our human nature to know how to appeal to girls I believe. That's not the hard part. The hard part is to not totally crumble and be silent and awkward in front of a girl. I think the only true practice if if you have a ton of girl friends and sisters and can interact with them casually all the time. People thought I was gay for always keeping girls at an arm's length, but at least I got the experience >.<

    That's only if the rest of DS users would want a RL girlfriend.

    Cause to some of us, Nene is all we ever need in our love life. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-qaMXZ_l70&feature=player_embedded]

    Thanks for reminding me of Zack and Miri, BlaqCat.

    Miri: If you ask me nicely, I will Dutch Rudder you for the rest of our lives.
    Zack: Good. I'm getting tired of fuckin' a fleshlight.
    Miri: You fucked it?
    Zack: Yeah.
    Miri: What'd it feel like?
    Zack: ...fucking a flashlight.

    They actually complement each other. Love Plus offers you the perfect relationship but no sex. Real girls can provide you with sex, but are annoying bitches only interested in your money.

    Tip: get out and get some sun. Lose a few pounds and start browsing dating sites, within a month you'll be able to get laid. Perhaps even less.

    A good place to start is with older women, women in their mid-30's to late forties; cougars or neighbors or very friendly women shopping alone in supermarkets late in the evening, aimlessly browsing the aisles, buying nearly nothing. At least it is here in Taiwan and perhaps in the USA also. They were when I was in college 10 years ago in Seattle and perhaps still.

    Older women are more pleasant to be around, a little more forgiving of beginners and fully functional, unlike older men. You'll find them very accepting and sure of themselves. Older women know what they want and they want it a lot!

    At least he sticks to his beliefs / conviction/ fetish. I don't see a loser in that. The word "loser" is very subjective and could mean a lot of things especially on different playing fields.

    But one thing is for sure, calling people losers just to boost one's ego is no winner.
