- Have you ever come home at night to see him or her curled up on the bed holding a pornographic gluttony of underaged girls and sea-monster genitalia instead of good old fashioned boy and girl private parts?
- Do they insist you wear a tail and cat ears in public and engage in "petting" in bed that isn't the norm?
- Do you have Nightow on your shelf instead of Disney?
- Are they enrolled in a Japanese language course?
- Is there a rising sun in your window even on cloudy days?
- Have they picked a foriegn sounding name for themselves and insist that you call them by it?
- Have they enrolled in art classes and come home complaining ever time that 'I'm SICK of drawing western style people! When do we get to REAL art?!'
If any of these apply to your significant other then there is a high possibility that YOU may be dating an OTAKU.
