When to Tell a Potential Girlfriend About Your Hobby?
OK I have always wondered about when the best time to tell someone that you like to run around dressed as a 6ft bat.
Do you tell them on the first date between the dessert and the coffee? :huh
Do you not mention it until they come to your apt for the first time and stand staring at it in silence? :confused
Do you turn up on their doorstep fully suited and see if they recognise you? :whack
What were your experiences?

Turn up at her house for a first date dressed in a straight jacket and foaming at the mouth........i think she will be relieved when you tell her you really like to dress as Batman...well its better than foaming at the mouth!!! :cookoo Emmmm,isn't it???

Re: When to tell a potential girlfriend about your hobby?
as soon as it's relevant in conversation.
GOOD IDEA:
discussing new movies, batman comes up, you mention you're a huge fan, she says "cool" you say "I actually have a pretty cool batman costume."
BAD IDEA:
discussing what you sleep in, she says "I sleep in the nude" you say "I dress up like batman in my free time."
I don't have a batman costume YET, but I do have Stormtrooper armor, and that's pretty much how I do it. I also keep a picture in my wallet...so when girls are looking through it (obviously looking for pictures of girlfriends) they find it and ask. It also keeps them from finding pictures of other girlfriends :dancespot

just tell her that if one of you has to dress in a full-body latex costume...wouldn't she rather it be you.
(you can talk her into it later :wink )

Re: When to tell a potential girlfriend about your hobby?
Great topic. I myself have lots of experience in this field. :lol
My technique is now to take them out a couple of times, get to like eachother a lot. Then when you finally do tell her, you say it's a 'collection'. And the suits are part of your collection. Or you use it for volunteering, which I did. Then it doesn't freak them out, but they smile about it instead.
Plus, they like you enough to where it doesn't matter what you hobby is. :wink

Re: When to tell a potential girlfriend about your hobby?
I've told all of the ladies I've dated over the years about it, but they eventually find out anyway when they enter my room. :wink
So far all of he girls that have seen my stuff, love it. Now I have 1 girlfriend and she absolutely loves it, because at one time the 89 movie was her favorite flick in the world and she had t-shirts, toys etc.. so it was a surprise to her to meet someone who actually makes this stuff. The best was surprising her in the shower wearing my Batman Returns cowl hehehehe.. slid open the glass and popped in and almost gave her a heart attack, I then said, "ever kiss Batman before" which followed with a nice kiss while wearing my cowl.
