I was sick and sitting here nursing my insomnia at 4am and thinking, "how come RR and AC seems to only be attractive to half the world's population?!" Unfortunately, I couldn't think of a reason. A few hours ago I read these two articles on <a href='http://www.riuva.com' target='_blank'>RIUVA</a> entitled "<a href='http://www.riuva.com/?p=666' target='_blank'>10 Ways to get an anime-loving girlfriend!</a>" and "<a href='http://www.riuva.com/?p=667' target='_blank'>Why best friends get no love, 6 tips to become boyfriend material!</a>" So anyway, I decided to summarize the points and add my own comments (in italics) for Filipino guys because I sincerely hope that a girl will one day beat Leperman in an AC/PACT event; and that they will fall in love afterwards 
10 Ways to get an anime-loving girlfriend
1. Get a big camera and profess to be a photographer
Go to an event with cosplay, and then bring a big camera. The bigger the better, and act professional. After taking pictures of the target, ask for contact information to send the pictures/have another photoshoot.
2. Write an anime blog or be the owner of a website
...So you won't be just another creepy ****. The more established your blog/site is, the better!
3. Be an active member of forums where people of the same age with similar interests to you congregate
Try one of the New Worlds Alliance affiliated groups, or Pinoy Cosplay. You also get to meet more people this way, even if you probably have to deal with a lot of annoying people too. Just pretend they're invisible, or imagine that you can stop time when you see them.
4. Trash the SOS-dan, Da Capo and other otaku-related merchandise. Or at least wear them only until the collar stretches. And the shirts should remain the original colour. Make sure you change your shirts daily too! No, just because you wore it for a mere 5 hours does not mean it
