I don't really find this search creepy. I can see the creepy implications but it's really not uncommon for people to be shy IRL but a bit bolder on the internet. I'm not surprised this guy has the guts to ask this question online. I used to be shy like this too. Good luck and when you do get a hold of her don't be shy.

I have issues with things like that in person. Oddly enough, though, I have no problem just talking with people. It's just that I almost never seem to ask for contact info to keep talking with them. So afterwards, it's all like, "Ok, I talked with them, but now I wanna talk with them more... but if I go online and start asking around for them, I'll sound creepy. Crud." So yeah. I hate when that happens, so I can kinda relate. Ah well. But I have no idea who the Chobits is. Sorry. Heh.

Personally I'm not the least bit shy in small groups or online, but I get incredibly introverted in crowds and noisy places. I really don't find this all that strange. There were a few girls I would have liked to stop and have a conversation with at the con, but for aforementioned reasons, I didn't. If I had a chance in another venue, I'd be much... bolder?
Anyway, I can see why people think it's creepy, but personally I admire the tenacity. And the worst that can happen is you finally track her down, and she and a bunch of other random internet people think you're creepy. So freak em. Good luck.

Jeez guys, cut the guy some slack. I didn't talk to everyone I wanted to, and now I regret it. Sometimes it's just hard, and you don't want to mess up and say something stupid or feel embarrassed.
anyways, I saw her around during the weekend, but I don't really know her. Sorry, and good luck. Hope ya find her. P:

Gotta love the internet. Giving people the confidence to do something they wouldn't in real life; its alot like alchohal (never been drunk, so I'm just going off what I see), just with out the hangovers. lol
Then again, I'm the same way. Keep to myself in large groups. Mostly out of fear of making an ass out of my self. I did talk to some people thou; A Misa-Misa on Saturday, some Turks, a SSJ Goku, Warlord Leader Kuma, and other people. So all in all it was fun.

Heh, I was trying to find the Ed cosplayer w/ the automail arm from Travis Willingham's panel. She said she'd be there tomorrow as my character's brother and that I should find her. Alas... she did not come on sunday. Moral of the story: Get the number in the same day, don't wait lol I think we both learned that the hard way ^_^,

Jeez guys, cut the guy some slack. I didn't talk to everyone I wanted to, and now I regret it. Sometimes it's just hard, and you don't want to mess up and say something stupid or feel embarrassed. Yeah, I gotta agree with this totally. I always feel like a total flake at the time when I see someone I wanna talk to. Then if I do, I'm all robotic like, and so totally awkward. And if I don't say anything, I'm all, "dang it! I should have said something!" afterward. So I try to talk with people more, so I don't regret it. But even still, I end up talking with one or two groups of people all weekend, and sometimes never get to talk to certain people that I also wanted to talk to. Good example... Ok. maybe not a good example. We'll go with "Long Story" or just " example": Just last year I talked with a person at a con, and we were both like... "OMG, I so totally know you from somewhere..." We figured out that we originally met at a con 9 years beforehand. No kidding. We had talked some, then, but not much. The cons were a lot smaller, so it was easier to talk to someone and find them again, ya know? But, they were someone that I wanted to talk with more than just at the con, but never got contact info. Then we met again last year, and we talked a bit, and I really enjoyed getting to talk with this person. Sad thing is, though... We still never asked for each other's contact info. >.< I'm regretting this. I suppose I know /how/ to get a hold of them (bought something they had made, which had contact info with it), but it'd be that whole awkward, kinda creepy aspect of it. Ya have to admit, it'd be really weird just suddenly emailing having Not asked for contact info, and being like, "Hey! I just kinda Found this contact info somewhere... Wanna chat?" yeah, that just sounds creepy stalker-ish. And then every con after that would be like awkward. Have I even found out if they're single or whatever? Nope! Even after all this time, I couldn't even muster courage to ask them to keep in contact. Darn shyness thing coming around at the wrong times at cons. And I keep trying to work on it at cons, too. Sad, but true. Moral of the story: talk at cons~ Don't be too shy. Ya never know. They might not be there the next year, and then you don't see the person again for a decade, and who knows what's changed in that time, ya know? Unfortunately, I have trouble listening to my own advice, but I try anyway. Anyway, Good luck~ (tl;dr)

^_^ this is true, and if it had not been for my good friend Pain i do not think me and kristin would be together now. He was cool enough to give her my IM (when i had it<_< grrr to computers) and we talk over that for a few then desided to use the phone. Now we have been together for over a year now ^_^ <3
