So I've been thinking about this recently.

Everytime I have a serious issue in life, and talk to someone about it who doesn't play games or someone who is a casual gamer, they don't seem very sympathetic or understanding about it.

However, when I talk to someone who is a consistent video game player, their responses are sincere/simpathetic and seem well thought through. And about 90% of the time, the advice they offer helps.

Do you think that potentially us gamers can connect and sympathize with people easier?
