Girls Guide to Dating a Geek: You Need a Manual for That?

September 8, 2008

Oh come on, geeks aren't that hard to figure out; men, maybe. Girls? Definitely. But you don't need a manual to figure out a geek, do you? If you do, here's A Girl's Guide to Dating a Geek ($14), which offers, with its tongue in cheek, how one should go about dating a geek.

I've already told you where to find fellow geeks, and now if you need help in the actual dating of the geek, here it is, I guess.

P.S. Where's the guy's guide for dating a girl geek? They're the ones who need the manuals, in my humble opinion.

Well, you know, a Guide Book for Guys Dating a Girl Geek would be like every other manual out there-- left unread on a shelf to collect dust until they can't take it anymore... or until the e-version gets released on Wikipedia! ;o)

I'm a geek girl dating a geek guy. We live in geeky partially-wedded bliss. ;p I don't need a book. I just need to feed him chocolate, biscuits, make sure his WoW night is always kept free and sit on him when he's been on the computer too long. :D

I dont wnat a carmen electra.. Just a cute smart funny girl who will know as much about horror movies and b movies as i do, who enjoy japanese horror movies and can show me how to get past the hard parts of resident evil, with the knife. Stab, stab, kick, stomp on face.

There are plenty of cute lady gamers, carl b0nes, and I am one of them, frankly! :D But what I am saying is don't let stereotypes sway you. I know geek girls that are gorgeous, edgy, intelligent, and that is just from one game. :P Gaming is not what it was 15 years ago, the fanbase is MUCH wider, and "geek" is no longer a word reserved for the socially inept. We aren't all waddling around in tacky Cosplay outfits stuffing our faces with pizza. But if you are looking for Carmen Electra, I doubt it, yeah, we have better things goin' on than getting our hair highlighted every other day. ;)

don't get the whole book thing. i guess that's for the people who think it's chic to nab a geek since they are worth so much! we can thank beauty in the geek for that. but give me a break. no way is a ditz gonna hold the attention of a true geek. that's why they have us. we're hot and we speak their language. win/win.

yeah... i dunno.. not many of you out there are single especially if you're attractive too.

I met mine playing Warcraft. True story. It helps if you can actually pvp, since a lot of girls don't get into that. Also, the fact that graphics cards excite me more than YSL lipsticks and that I actually said "Honey, we need a bigscreen TV" didn't hurt. :D

It is also probably easier for men in general to get along with geeky girls as we tend to be a bit more tom boyish in general if we are a geek (from my experience). I have been called "the perfect woman" by men who didn't even like computers. Geeky guys can be a bit tougher of a group.

It seems rarer to run across a geeky girl than a geeky guy though. I would think a book catering to the prior is a harder sell than the latter.

I don't know, some girls may be new to the world of geek. My little sister-in-law only seemed to date emo rocker guys but recently started dating a geek. She had a hard time with he'll pay more attention to the computer than you and the try to be part of his world thing. She's getting it now though and is playing WoW with him. I do agree there should be a guide to geek girls though!

I totally agree with you, where the hell is my book,, there is no trick into dating a male geek, you just need to get him to stick around long enough to ask him out.. But Where the hell are the hot geek girls..
