| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 6:32:21 PM | | I am a nerd and haven't have my first date yet(don't want it anymore) yet I seem to see on the net that other nerds claiming to have girlfriends. Call me a skeptic but I seem to see false truths. Btw, none of the local "fish" were biting before I turned 24. I think us single nerds should have a strike. "No computer fixing unless all the hot local females dump their boyfriends and go out with us nerds." | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 6:48:12 PM | None of that makes you a nerd. You are intellegent and non-social. If I were to pass you on the street, would you obviously stand out as a nerd?

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 6:49:59 PM | | Well what can I say............you have only asked 8 women out and already you have formed an opinion and given up.... for a smart guy you give up easy. | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 6:54:28 PM | lol, well of course nerds have gf's.....but if all you are open to dating is the super hot model type girls then you might have to be more patient. lol There are girl nerds out there....think of all the things you could have in common with them. I agree....stop mentioning you are horny....every man is horny thats a given....also stop mentioning your lack of experience....be yourself, but you don't have to reveal everything off the top. And really I'm 29 and have never had a bf, and I'm not giving up, I think I might just have a nerdy bf in June if all goes as planned, and I seriously could not be happier. Smart is sexy.....play it that way more than I"m a NERD I'm a NERD everywhere. Lol and those girls you asked out...so what they had bf's try finding a single girl to ask out....that way you have a better chance. | |

I usually make "Family Guy" quotes in public. I don't know why. I just do it. I even laugh at them to myself. I usually give the guys who have girlfriends the evil eye, except for fellow nerds. I'm happy for those guys.
1inamiilion,
Being rejected like that really does hurt when you're a very emotional and caring person. | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 6:58:56 PM | My former bf was a computing science professor
He played D&D regularly in University
We actually made a character for me and played a game....I really didn't have any interest in it
In his spare time he made computer programs...D&D related
He worked on physics problems for fun!
When we played the game of life he was so upset that the one who didn't go to university always won (because they didn't have loans to pay off)
He created a program for life that better suited his view of reality
So yes, nerds get girlfriends.... But I DID break up with him! | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 6:59:03 PM | Well, if he's going this route:
Nerd=academically excelling (think the brains from Saved by the Bell) Geek=adictions to gaming, magic, anime, collecting strange things. Dork=Silly, slightly socially inept (tends to make a fool of themselves willingly to make friends).
Then I'd count him more as a nerd than the other ones. I'd never say no to a guy just based on the fact that he's a nerd (I like smart guys) but I've got a sweeter spot for geeky guys.
I know plenty of nerds who have girlfriends. They're usually a bit smarter than the bubblegum generation but they fit into that lifestyle pretty well. I haven't found a nerd who's tamed the prom queen yet but I'll leave that one to teen movies.
But I will agree that your choice of username on here could put off a lot of girls who are looking for more in their love lives than just sex. | |

Single girls in my hometown. What a laugh lol. Seriously, I might I have to travel out of state or date a high school student to get a cute single girl. | |

I thought geeks were circus performers. Actually, I agree with your descriptions of geek & dork but since when is academically excelling the definition of a nerd? Does that mean all the women on here looking for intellegent men are seeking nerds? I think a nerd is a geek devoid of social or fashion consciousness -- someone who is visibally geeky.
To our thread starter, going 0-8 is not that big a deal. Average guys probably only succeed 1 out of every 10 times they attempt to ask a girl out. (I have absolutely nothing to back that up... just an arbitrary figure.) So by that reckoning, 1 of the next 2 girls you ask will say yes!
My suggestion is give up on the negativity because that will get you no where and post in the profile review forum. They will first tell you to drop the negativity. Then they will tell you to remove the hat and put on a shirt before taking and posting your next photo. Finally they will suggest you change your username and drop 'hot girls' & 'muchachas calientes' form your interest list.

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 7:28:02 PM | Yes they do.
In fact, im pretty much sure, the girl I'm dating is a much bigger nerd/geek than I am.
She's into mages, and warlocks and orcs and wizards and all that crap... .=)
I guess I shouldnt say that, otherwise I'm going to be put in a shrine somewhere =) | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 7:45:38 PM | I changed my username and las personas no hablan espanol asi ellos no saben la definicion de la palabra "muchachas calientes". No cambio la palabra. Yeah, being rejected like that does give oneself a negative feeling that no other person can cheer up. | |

Not true. I don't speak spanish and I know what the phrase means but leave it if you prefer.

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 8:16:01 PM | | Hahaha people who speak of themselves in the third person, pfft nerds do get girlfriends.The ones that don't are the ones that play on-line games, for those of you who play you will know. | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 8:36:26 PM | Of course girls like nerds. Many women are into them. Why? Nerds and geeks are interesting, smart, and usually pretty funny in an off-beat way. Too bad there aren't that many GUYS into nerdy/geeky/dorky chicks, *especially* those male nerds:
"No computer fixing unless all the hot local females dump their boyfriends and go out with us nerds."
So many of them want the hot, chic, sparkly-lip gloss divas and princesses. I've had girlfriends though, and they certainly dug me. So it's not all bad. *grin* | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 9:01:35 PM | | I was talking to a cute computer guy a few weeks ago, he was shy but cool. Tonight he showed up at the local deli with a cute Hsipanic girl... I really am getting tired of all the guys I like turning uo with Hispanic ladies, we gringa's,s are just as smart and nice...So guess the answer is yes, nerds have gf 's, it just is hard for gringas here, it seems...argghh! And I even upgraded my looks, to a reasonable extent...:( | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 9:16:06 PM | I am sure that "nerds" do have girlfriends. Cut out the negativity...now!! (said in a fake Klingon accent!)
I am a bit of a geek because I enjoy Star Trek and can say a few words of Klingon for laughs. And, yes, I've had a boyfriend. It was a good relationship until we discovered that we had different life goals. Yeah, maybe I said one Klingon word too many Seriously, my point is that geeks can be successful in dating and love.
I am not really sure whether being a Star Trek/Star Wars fan makes someone a geek, or a nerd, but I don't care. It's fun, and I have many friends who also share that common interest.
We are not alone**
*there are plenty of geeks/nerds out there **there are people on other planets around the galaxy--a long long way from here, but they're out there

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/26/2006 11:03:43 PM | I'm dating a nerd. Or a geek. Whichever. But then I am also a member of the club, so I dunno if it counts.
You said every girl you asked out replied "boyfriend"... so I'm gonna go out on a HUGE limb here and suggest that you quit asking non-single women out. I know sometimes you can't tell, but at least try to find out her status BEFORE popping the "date me" question. | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/27/2006 12:04:09 AM | Lol...trust me they do...I go to an engineering school and there's just so many geeks and dorks and nerds here and a lot of them that i would NOT expect to have girlfriends do (and some of them are quite beautiful).
It also kinda depends on whether ur a nerd or geek or dork, they have different meanings...or so i've heard. | |

| Do nerds actually have girlfriends? Posted: 4/27/2006 12:08:36 AM | | What is a nerd ?- I guess thats another one of those things that is in the eye of the beholder.Sounds to me a nerd is a putdown word by some insecure person who is not as smart as the person they put down so they label him/her nerd. Can we say jealousy . | |
