I have a beer or two occasionally when I'm bored at home all the time. Nothing wrong with that.

I get girls hitting on me when I help them with their computer stuff, so "geek" isn't the turnoff you make it out to be. In fact most girls equate geek with money these days. As long as you're not a repugnant swine with a complete lack of social skills, being a geek shouldn't hurt you at all. |
You seem to have misread my post since you seem to be agreeing with my point. I was trying to tell the guy not to accept the term "geek" as a negative label . . . be smart, be into computers etc but don't accept that girls won't like you because of it. Most of the young guys without girls on here seem to never ask any girls out -- its often because they accept a negative self-image (at least they post as if they do)-- If they saw themselves a little more positively-- who knows what they could accomplish in the social circles
I agree that being smart, intellectual or into computers should not hurt you in the least . . . I was talking about the old "geek" sterotype where the braniac was always lacking in all social skills
As for women and money, some are like that and it takes a while to learn to avoid those- I'm a lawyer and have seen a few who are like that but not that many . . . most women just seem to want a decent guy regardless of money stuff

well asher . . . if you don't want to go out with anyone, you shouldn't. But I have seen a number of posters bemoan their single and/or virgin status and it seemed that the starter of this thread was one of them. If someone is happy single they should stay that way but if they want to change their circumstance . . . well they have to do something other than cry in their beer
Cheers and good night

Yup.
And I can have fun without alcohol - when I go out, I'm rarely drunk. Usually I only get truly drunk at parties with friends.

True, true...but OTOH girls don't like high guys any more than they like drunk ones (right, LTEC, playa, dm, Tia, BW, etc.??).
