How to date a geek guy.
The other day, I came across a perfect post on how to date a geek guy. Being a geek, I was able to relate to each and every point made…Girls, read it! It’s all true (at least in my situation).
Point number 6 is a big factor with me. One of the hardest things about being a “geek guy” is getting outside and doing things. For starters, I don’t need to go to places like Starbucks or Borders to “think.” Being single, owning my own place, living alone, I can do all that without leaving my home, and I do.
Then you have going out to places. I’m very bad at going to places where I don’t know a single person. I’m pretty bad at mingling; I always feel like I’m forcing myself onto people.
Another thing I wanted to mention, too, was something in the comments that caught my eye:
I will say this. If he’s a nerd/geek, don’t date him. Don’t try to change him. Don’t try to change any man. He won’t do it. Let them be.
I want to comment on this being a geek and wanting to change. Just like a woman, just like your best friend, just like a drug addict, the only way a man will change is if they truly want to change. I happen to be one of them men who truly wants to change.
I want to be pulled away from the computer to new and interesting places. I want to have somebody by my side to share cool experiences with. I want somebody to disagree with my choice of furniture color. I also want a companion that wants to go to the gym.
Alas, all my attempts to change myself has failed. I fell off the wagon, over and over again. I need somebody, even just a best friend, that’ll push me back onto that wagon, over and over again. I mean, I want them to punch me in the stomach and drag me back onto the wagon. But how do you tell somebody that? You really just can’t.
Anyway, that’s my rant … I’ll be posting more on this blog soon. I’ve been doing some exercises to improve my writing. I think they are working as my urge to write on my blog has been increasing…more on that later.
