What do you find attractive that might be surprising to the insecure nerdfox?
heated conversations about quarks, boys who give me books to read, boys who read the books i give them, when they listen to justin timberlake and like it, when they talk articulately about their dissertation, when they wish they had brought their apples to apples board game over so we could play. when they get lost driving because they are busy flirting with me * reserved, shy kissers * winners of the golden horseshoe award, when they rock the moon-boots proudly, when they know exactly what wine to order, when they want to try my salad, when they want to go see documentary movies about bugs. when they ask me good questions. when they are really modest about playing an instrument or doing something really well.
What do you, as a nerdfox, struggle with the most in the romantic or social arena?
clamming up around beautiful eco-babe nerdfoxes, meeting and connecting with other nerdfoxes, mingling with nerdfoxes, finding and keeping true nerdfoxes.
What are good first lines if you don’t really know someone?
Hey, do you play apples to apples?
How do you initiate a smooch?
i’ve heard from a reputable source that “hey…wanna kiss” works wonders. I have also suggested snuggling, which usually leads to some smooching and often more than smooching. offering someone some of your mango works wonders, too. drinking a giant mag of wine together and watching bad movies is also a well-trod path to smooch-land.
How do you gently correct romantic mishaps?
i move.
How do you find nerd foxes?
seek them out in libraries, music halls, music stores, coffee shops, book stores, architecture schools, chem labs, tea houses, rallies, mensa meetings, chess club, art galleries, movie theaters, art communes, apple stores, college towns, and contra dances.
General do’s and don’ts :
do tell me i’m a “good humper”. do give me good books to read. do cultivate an interest in strange trivia.
Worse pick up lines:
“do you play tennis?”
“i have heat sensor glasses on. i saw your body heat”
