10 Reasons I Prefer Dating Geeks

February 26, 2010 | In: Funny, Photoshop

Number 10

Because I’m a Geek

Always have been. As a tween, the first book I checked out at the Allen Co. Library was, How the Brain Works. Most girls my age were checking out Babysitters Club and Tiger Beat Magazine.

Number 9

Because on a Date, Conversation Still Matters

Number 8

Because They Aren’t Trying to be Geeky to be Hip… They Are Just Geeks

Some people desperately try to be one. Hipsters. I can handle my fair share of Pabst Blue Ribbon out of a can, but I draw the line when your jeans are so tight I may see your crack when you tie your All-Stars. Can I borrow your keffiyeh?

Number 7

Because There is Nothing Like Receiving an Eloquent and Witty Email From a Beau

If I’m feeling extra flirtatious I will switch from Courier New to Arial in my response.

Number 6

Because This is What Premature…

…means to girls like me.

Number 5

Because Natalie Portman has an Unreasonably Symmetrical Face

It makes her hot as hell. This is not really a reason I date geeks, I’m just throwing that out there.

Number 4

You Know What That Is?

Geeks do. That’s fractal broccoli and it’s the coolest thing on earth. The only way it gets any better is if you wrap it in bacon.

Number 3

Because If You Doze Off and Dream About Being on the Cover of Wired Magazine at Night…

…I will more than likely dream about you.

Number 2

Because I Have a Different Criteria For What Constitutes a Romantic Walk on The Beach

Number 1

Because Geeks Don’t Cheat.

I value trust and loyalty above all things. Unless, of course, you get your dream shot at Natalie Portman then by all means…

If you don’t have an awesome geeky boyfriend after posting this yet, then it’s gonna happen pretty soon.

Hehehe, I’m certain some geeks cheat. But percentage wise, I think it’s a significantly lower amount than other social groups. Not even necessarily due to “lack of options”. A recent study showed that men with higher IQ’s had a tendency to place a higher value on monogamy. Oddly enough, the same study didn’t find a similar correlation with women.

But yah, I’m a geek and I don’t cheat. It’s funny because I work as a tech in the oilfield and about 90% of the guys I work with can’t wrap their mind around that concept.

Thanks Emily! Awesome post!!!

Geeky guys don’t cheat because they’re so astonished and grateful to be in a relationship with a woman in the first place that they wouldn’t do anything to risk it.

Geeky girls do cheat because they’re so horrendously outnumbered by geeky guys.

This is quite possibly the best blog post in the history of the internet. By the way, I’ve told every girl I’ve ever dated that I would absolutely never cheat on her, unless of course I met Natalie Portman.

The veggie is actually Romanesco. “Fractal broccoli” is pretty cute though.

Good post, I consider myself a half geek, I had a geek gf and in 4 years didn't once think about cheating on her (that feeling was mutual) although I met a lot of other, by general opinion, more attractive women, because I also do a lot of sports. We eventually split because she got her Ph. D. very early and got a job offer in a city far away. I felt so bad, I really miss her, we used to watch geeky TV shows and she used to watch me play games, ah, good times.

The fractal broccoli is called romanesco (at least in the UK).
Thought you might want to know.

I'm not sure where nerds fits into this dating scheme of yours, but I am one, and find you to be unimaginably attractive. I'm sure you have quite the following already, but you just nabbed another. cheers, miss.

I knew #2 was a sinistral gastropod shell…does that make me a geek??

Emily is a Gilf…..Get I'd like to Fuck….

But aside from that bad joke…..most of this is true.
Soda Pop

That should be "Geek I'd like to Fuck" not "Get"….sorry about that.
