Geeky hobbies

Anybody wishing to date a geek would be wise to consider the activities said geek enjoys. While a World of Warcraft addiction might be tolerable, would you still be able to cope if your future partner was a furry, a real-life cosplayer or a wannabe ninja? What if they were obsessed with samurai swords, Star Trek or lockpicking? Girls: would you date a man who lurked the internet all day? Boys: would you go out with a girl who ate nothing but pocky?

A lot can be gleaned from first impressions. The first thing that people notice when they see you are your shape and colour. Of course, if you’re enormous than that lends itself to other problems. If you are of servicable girth, however, you are judged on your shoes, your jacket, and your hat. Then the other person will notice your trousers and accessories. This is the point at which your geekiness may be revealed. Are you carrying a light saber? Does your t-shirt have a witty quip about SQL injection? Are you holding a pixelated Minecraft diamond pick? All of these will immediately betray you as a geek.

This can be a good thing. If you were to throw off all accessories with geeky connotations, wear some nice red cord trousers with a boater or something, then you’d become not only a bit of a fop but also a fake fop. Nobody likes a fake fop and even if your fake foppery is enough to entice a member of the opposite sex into a relationship, the real you might be discovered with uncomfortable consequences.
