OK, what's the trick?So far I've not managed to find a spouse, reasoanble
or not. Is this another regional thing?
Doubtful. Just look where geek gals hang out. It did take me quite
I am still not sure ofg the exact defintion of 'geek',
There is no exact definition. I personally define "geek" as "nerd
with social skills". I further say that being a geek is good (and I'm
proud to be labeled as one), whilst being a nerd is...not so good.
but the only place
I know where I would meet such people is an HPCC meeting. We have one
female member, she's only just a teenager (the daugheter of anotehr
member in case you're wondering). Whatever else I might be, I am not a
paedophile...
awhile, and I did deep-six more than one of the
"you should get rid of
all this stuff so I can move in and we can have a HOOOMMME!" types. But
it can be done.
Err, yes... Like it's _possible_ to find a PERQ 2T4. Or an HP95C.
I didn't say it was easy, but there are more geek girls out there now
than ever before. Visit maker faires and hackerspaces. Their
inhabitants would always value advice and mentoring from someone of your
caliber anyway. Social contact isn't always a bad thing. ;) The worst
that can happen is that you'll have some fun!
