Ladies, is the reason you aren’t getting very far in the dating world because you haven’t let go of the girl you were in high school? We know it’s a stereotype, but sometimes women pine after the rebellious cool guy, the one that mothers hate and girlfriends envy. While we’re driving ourselves crazy to impress Mr. Cool, the undiscovered nerd is standing in the shadows waiting to be noticed.
Maybe the comic book expert with the closetful of costumes for next month’s convention is a little much. But those guys who walk the line between nerd and die-hard geek could use just a little luring out of their shell. Underneath all of those odd hobbies and quirky friends, these men can not only hold a conversation, but they also champion a woman with an education, a large vocabulary and a mind of her own.
If you have never dated a nerd, consider the following 9 reasons why you might just need a geek in your life.
1. He’s Heartfelt
Although sometimes awkward, geeks are usually well-meaning and sincere. He wants to get to know you and feel comfortable with a real lady. Surely, it is quite a difference from the lonely nights with Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, but a welcome change nonetheless.
2. He’s a Smarty Pants
Nerds usually are intelligent, can hold a good job and are overall self-sufficient. He’s probably responsibly planned for and invested in his future well before any of us have started. Smart guys can also open your horizons and can offer a perspective or education about world news, politics or obscure movie trivia.
3. You’ll get the Star Treatment
Often overlooked, these guys can appreciate a woman when they get one. Likely to be a priority in his life, they show you off to their friends, call when they say they will and will most likely impress Mom and Dad. Okay, so maybe you will be number 2 or 3 after the computer games and geek trivia, but you won’t be on a long list of ladies vying for some time with him.
4. He’s Open to Suggestions
You can offer tips on fashions, hairstyles or even music of present day. They realize that they could use the help when replacing the acid washed jeans or “spiked” hair from the days of yore and welcome their newfound hipness.
5. He’s a Gentleman
A far cry from the smarmy creep at the bar, nerds are more likely to debate your favorite Superman villain than only go after that “one thing.” With little less relationship experience, his naïve fumbling with romantic advances come off as endearing and honest.
