RE: HELLLLP!
My ex from college kind of fell in love with me because of the fact that I still played Pokemon (you see, she was an anime fanatic, so my Pokemon obsession really didn't faze her too much). In any case, if it bugs you so much, don't mention it. If they find out and make fun of you because of it, don't bother with them. The most important thing is always to be yourself! Don't let what other people think bug you; it's really not worth stressing out over.
