Re: When to tell a potential girlfriend about your hobby?
well, i told the girl i love that i was making a costume and she loved the idea. its probably because she loves Batman just as much as I do lol.. but she's the "close second" when it comes to batman fans w/ me and her. she wants to be that girl from Underworld (the main character), so i dont think she'd mind me dressing up as Batman if we ever went out lol

As soon as possible.. I say.
If they can't accept it then they're gone. (not many women in my life anymore, OY. Actually by my choice, I just can't be bothered with their crap mostly :beatup )

Re: When to tell a potential girlfriend about your hobby?
When you share dark sides or after rescuing her as Batman -- maybe.

I usually meet them as Batman, then they run away screaming when they meet my alter ego! :shootme

Re: When to tell a potential girlfriend about your hobby?
Thanks for all of your comments guys and girls - some of them were hysterical.
As I am now single I thought this was an important topic to discuss as my previous girlfriend was with me whilst my passion for the bat developed. Dropping the whole thing on a new gf might have been a bit much. Even my ex said thing might have been getting out of hand when she woke up early one morning to find me hanging upside down and gently swinging from my inversion boots ala Viki Vale after her night with Bruce in Batman.
I think the best approach would be the one where we discuss it if it comes up but make it clear it is a hobby and that the suit is really more about the visits than being a vigilante superhero!!
And if she falls for that - we have a winner! Now how do I tell her about the spiderman suit - pics to follow soon :)

Re: When to tell a potential girlfriend about your hobby?
Interesting question...
My wife is into the costuming too..so it doesn't matter anymore...
But family members and friends...ah yes...almost as interesting... actually more so, because if your new girlfirend/boyfriend doesn't like it you probably won't have to see them again.
I recently started doing Star Wars costuming...and we do hospital visits... which is great. I love seeing the smiling kids...and it provides some more legitimacy to costuming...
I am hoping to get a Superhero type of group together for hospital visits...
