heres 10 reasons why girls feel attracted to us:

1) We're very smart.

2) It's hip to be geek. Everyone is familiar with the stereotype of thick glasses, a pocket protector, an obsession with star trek, and social skills akin to a sack of potatoes. Times have changed: geeks are often fashionable, hip individuals who are very aligned with the trends of their own generation.

3) They geek out on more than just their computer. Ever seen the movie collection of a film geek? Ever had an automotive geek work on your car? Ever seen the body of a fitness geek? The tenacity of someone like us, when applied to hobbies outside computers and the like, can yield impressive results.

4) Geek humor is the best humor:D. This is perhaps a biased opinion, but I've never laughed as hard as I have while reading some of the random, funny things that came out of geek culture.

5) You listen to good music. Geeks have access to tools that allow us to hear music that extends well beyond top 40 radio. Want the entire discography of Aphex Twin by tomorrow afternoon? Ask a geek. Not only do we listen to good music, they can find just about anything you're looking for in a heartbeat.

6) We make good money (lots of them). If there's one stereotype about geeks that usually rings true, it's that we rarely have trouble earning a decent income.

7) We fix stuff. Everyone loves a handyman, especially one that can fix one of the most frustrating devices ever conceived: a personal computer.

8) We've got your own stuff going on. You'll never meet a geek who runs out of things to do, we've got lots of hobbies and interests and are more than happy to dive head first into one of those when they've got some spare time. In other words: they won't rely on you to give them a life.

9) We're very articulate. Compulsively reading a few hundred RSS feeds a day yields a vocabulary that could put most college English majors to shame.

10) We're passionate. When a geek becomes interested in something, we tend to immerse themselves in it entirely. They'll strip a new gadget down to nuts and bolts and re-build it with an xhtml compliant grappling gun. This intense passion can extend to many areas of a geek's life, not just computers and hobbies.

now its your turn to point out other reasons to the list;)

Gross over generalization.

Explain to me amrosoma, what makes someone a geek?

I believe personality has more to do with why a woman loves you than anything else. A shallow woman will love you for money, however, it doesn't hurt in any circumstance when trying to get a woman.

In my case, I'm waiting for the right woman to find me (if one exists lol). I don't really have the time nor the energy to look for one. :P

Well, now that's quite a list! And, yeah, geeks tend to be very smart, and girls tend to be impressed!

Just show them what you got, and they'll fall for ya!

[Xav]

As anyone fallen for you?

[TcM]

Well, I've got friends...

[Xav]

Yeah, but... anything more?

Do you think the right woman will find you though? I mean, without you looking for her as well?

It hasn't happened yet, but I don't mind, I'm too busy as it is lol.

[amrosama]

I totally agree with phill, people shouldnt be looking for love cuz it will happen weather you wanted it or not
