"Nerds Make the Best Boyfriends."

[Lbelle]

I read this entire thing, and had a thoughtful smile on my face the whole time. I'd love to have a nerd/geek boyfriend. But he fails to mention in this little article that they're hard as FUCK to actually find.

I mean, think about it. Say you're me (oh the horror, I know, but just bear with me a few seconds), a nerdy girl. So, I spend most of my time on the computer or watching TV and don't go out all that often to parties and stuff like that because I am said nerdy girl.

Well, the nerdy guys are also at home most of the time online...How are we supposed to meet?? The only thing I can think of is like Myspace or Facebook.

Picture it this way, too.

I'm a geeky guy. I don't mind being around other people, or going to social events. However, even if I were to be at the same party as you, I'm not entirely sure I'd talk to you. Or many other people for that matter. There's a lot of reasons for this, several of which are under my control, but it could be adequately summed up as me being a complete wuss. So, I end up largely unnoticed. Part of me is okay with this -- it's the path of least resistance -- and most of me is frustrated.

It's rare for me to even see a girl anywhere close to my age (I know why this is, but it's not relevant), so I can't really pose the same question to myself, but, how many geeky guys do you think you walk by daily? Chances are, you're not looking for a completely passive person, and it'd be a fair bet that most geeks are, so the greater majority of geeks simply aren't seen by you.

Not true! I notice just about every guy that walks past me. Geeks ESPECIALLY because they usually have the best shirts on! I'm totally serious. Today I saw this kid walk past me, and he had a shirt on that said something like One day geeks will take over the world or something funny like that.

Just because you don't think you're noticed doesn't mean people don't notice you! I think it's more of a thing where if the nerdy girl is too shy to go talk to the nerdy guy, well, therein lies the problem.

I'd rarely talk to some random guy on the street. I mean, I wouldn't go up to someone I don't know and try to intiate conversation, I think it'd be too awkward. One of the only times I did it was when I was wearing a WoW shirt that said FOR THE HORDE, and I walked past someone that had one that said like ALLIANCE or something and I was like, "hey we match!" and he just...got so scared looking that either a. a person was talking to him, or b. a girl was talking to him. It was just funny/awkward and I haven't talked to a random person since then.

Bad boys and nerdy guys have always been oil and water.


I fall under bad boy, but i enjoy playing a video game that is mostly populated by people more intelligent than I -- but also geekier and less socially experienced (best way to word it).



But I'll tell you one thing, if a girl ever dated me cause I ride a sport bike -- or dated you cause you can dissemble her computer blind folded, then she's a superfiscial bitch not worth either of our time.

Speaking of cool nerdy girls, I havent seen Silverbreeze post for a month or so.

Isn't that an oxymoron lmfao?

And yes, some chicks are into the whole 'bad boy,' and 'mysterious' kinda shit, but most of the time it's due to how or what things they were exposed to when they was young. However, they tend to change their ways when they become women, a.k.a. more mature and they know what they want/who to spend their life(?)with.

You are correct.

Na, I think there are many types of nerd / nerd teirs.

You have your book nerds, computer nerds etc. And then you have how badly a nerd they are, they could be the acne infested overweight snot sucking kind and dress like one, and then there are the kind that you couldnt tell unless you asked.

[Xfaustx]

and then there are the kind that you couldnt tell unless you asked.

thats me

[DarktaruFM]

and then there are the kind that you couldnt tell unless you asked.

thats me

then youre not a nerd, youre a wannabe

[SephYuyX]

Im totally a cool nerd too, though I wear glasses ;-; Is it bad to be a nerd/dork/geek and look down on your own kind? I cant stand a lot of the 'real' nerds, they really annoy me, it's actually pretty embarrassing to look at them.

1. Glasses are really hot

2. No it's not bad to look down on your own kind. I play WoW, but I fucking HATE when it's all people can talk about. It annoys the fuck out of me.

I also look down on alot of girls, who are also "my own kind," so I wouldn't say it's a bad thing.

[Jerseyprophet]

Im just saying the nerdy boys can break your hearts as fast as we can ladies.


Its all about the person.

anyone who can use google and follow instructions can do that stuff.

Ontopic: I'm not so much a video-game nerd now as a book nerd. Like everyone before me, its just hard meeting people who are sorta geeky also. It's like all the disgusting nerds congregate at stuff like the anime club or table-top RPG clubs, not the ones who have some semblance of social skills.
