I see interest, her mom is a computer science major. I think she is just sick of it. I know there is potental.

Re: Dating a Non-Geek
 

Oh, where can I start...

The way you worded this makes her sound like a piece of meat that might need more preparing. It is wrong, even if you don't mean it or catch yourself implying it, to think you have the right to change somebody, especially a girlfriend. If you two were meant to be the thought of changing her wouldn't even cross your mind.

On a lighter note: Think of WHY she likes to be with you. Is it because of your personality, your 'geekiness,' or is it something else? Once you figure out why she likes to be with you, you guys can grow on that.

I've learned from personal experience that it is a good thing to keep at least ONE thing that you love doing... to yourself. I understand that you might want to change her so you two have something to talk about, but you can still talk about it. If she asks and inquires a lot about the technological stuff you do, great! If she doesn't, don't take it as an omen... try something else that you two have in common. But if it bothers you that much... don't take her dignity and personality away by trying to change her, declare friendship instead and go for someone else.

So here's my point, go through the relationship day by day and enjoy your time spent together no matter what you two are doing. Do NOT come up with some ultimate plan to turn her into the perfect partner, because whether or not you succeed, you will be dissappointed. So try to understand... most of the time, people cherish other people mostly because they are different. Enjoy it, don't exploit it.

Dam there is the proof that I'm a geek.

Yeah, I'm with ya... Anyone got a mop or something? I'm not sure how to clean up all these chicken bodies...

:confused:

Notice how it said bizzare acts not just biting heads off of chickens.

Mmmm..... chicken....


On a college diet chicken heads sound good right about now... I wonder if KFC sells any...

Wow. That's what I want to see, Mike and Fluck before! :D :rolleyes: ;)

I am "dating" a "non-geek" in a sence, just depends on your "deffiniton" of "dating". I think you should be your own "person" and not have to "change" yourself to "date" a "non-geek". "Personallity" is where it truley "counts". "Date" a person with a similar "personallity" or one that you are "compatable" with instead of "bothering" with "geek" or "non-geek" "status". And always, use "quotations".

I wish I had _any_ kind of girlfriend. :)

*Lose* the sunglasses. :)

DJ...I agree with you on this one. Forcing someone to change is a bad thing, but helping someone change into someone they *want* to be can be a good thing.

Oddly enough, I can't actually find them. :)
