My girlfriend just dumped me because she saw my weeaboo folder and looked through every folder. She examined all the folders and saw all 250 GB of music, 3 TB of anime, 75 GB of VN, 120 GB of doujinshi and 200 GB of fan art in all their glory. I guess now atleast I won't have to hide the figures when she comes over, right? Right?

I don't even know anymore. What should I do now, /jp/? Pic somewhat related. One of my favorite artists whom contributed to me being dumped.

Find a girl who isn't a superficial bitch.

I've hid my interests before to attract women too. It works great if you just want hot sexings, because many more women are willing to have sex with you if you don't have figures lining your bed. But it works like shit for relationships, because you end up with chicks you have no real common ground with, and you inevitably get sick of pretending to not be interested in shit you really like.

You can buy industrial harddrive erasers that can do the work pretty quickly (they're basically just giant degaussing coils).

Don't think they come cheap though, but if you're one of those $100,000pa/salary during the day, eroge_expert at night kinds, it might be useful to have the peace of mind at hand and be able to nuke everything you have in an instant.
