Going to conventions and or places of interest for example comic book store

I wish it were that easy. If you figure something else out, please share with the class. I got to cons and comic book stores all the time and I've never once met anyone like that and I am cute as heck. :')

Conventions are gonna be your best bet, although given larger ones tend to draw people from all over the place, you might not meet someone exactly local to you. A lot of theses cons do have speed dating, and being a girl and the fact those events have far more guys than gals usually attending, you'd have plenty of potential guys to pick from. Secondary places are local anime clubs or geek gatherings. Again, this is really dependent on where you live, but any weekly or monthly gathering is not a bad place to start. From there, if you're really desperate, maybe hit up the manga section at your local bookstore and see if any guys catch your fancy? I've seen girls at these places before, but they tend to be younger than I'm interested in or clearly have their significant other with them the handful of times I've gone in the past.

Aside from already mentioned methods, you could try chat-rooms or sites like twitter/Facebook.

there's websites that are made for that like https://www.meetup.com/. however, people make groups on Facebook like mine. conventions are a good way to make friends. is there a type of method you like the best?

Or.... Try striking up conversations with people offline. You'd be surprised how many like what you do and think like you, but may just hide it. I mean, even a coworker of mine, who's around 60, surprised me by striking up conversations about anime, gaming, scifi...etc. I'd say, at your age(pretty close to my own), you're always better offline, but online is a start I suppose. It's like most here think that you can only meet people with these kinds of interests only in certain areas, they're literally all around (even if not obsessed, like some here).

Or you could be like me and be a loner who plays video games

Even with that you can find games that are group based and make friends moreso with mmos and heavily focused teamwork. Also create a group around the game you like find people who do. Let's say you like smash bros a lot find people around your area who do via a post somewhere or online not close. Have a little get together like a group chat while playing it through Skype or something. That's a way to meet a nice person not specifically defined to relationships.
