Cute, intelligent girl: OH MY GOD SHE UNDERSTANDS PARTICLE PHYSICS I WANT HER NEED HER MUST MARRY HER.

It's the reason why Zooey Deschanel will always be more attractive than Kim Kardashian. Always.

Finally, someone understands.

Lol I've put off a few girls by telling them I'm a software engineering student, they just assume you're boring, become disinterested and eventually come up with an excuse to walk away. I've never really done anything terribly stupid to attract a girl but I sometimes try to make them laugh which often doesn't quite work and makes me look like a bit of an idiot.

yep.

hot, cute, pretty. Every girl falls somewhere on this lovely triangle.

Also Dayvan--please don't take offense at this, but be careful overplaying the smart nerd thing--guys dig it i'm sure but if you over do it your personality becomes very one dimensional to guys as many girls who do have the nerd factor tend to overplay it and it becomes...predictable.

I.E. Instead of using "hitchhikers guide" as what your conversation topic, throw in a reference like "don't panic" or "I always know where my towel is." Use it as an enhancement not a center. You are lucky to be smart and like awesome things, it will come off without you having to force it. Does that make sense?

also, i'm throwing in my typical suggestion of you may want to read kurt vonnegut if you like douglas adams. They have a similar cynical, detached view of the world meshed in with a humourous writing style

You sound like you have a lovely personality i'm just trying to help you work it :)

@zero.
could be worse. My mate does civil engineering and it's basically studying the ground to see if it's suitable to build rocks on (amongst other things). But he's literally one of the funniest guys I've ever met and has a smashing personality. So just cause you do something boring at uni doesn't make you a boring person.

Also the same standards go for guys. For me anyway. I'd prefer a mediocre looking geeky intelligent boyfriend to one that I could grate cheese on his abs. I'd LOVE the best of both worlds but I mustn't be greedy.

Posted Elizabethan poetry. A lot. It would be romantic in the right context, but not in a Myspace photo comment.

Unless you're flexing your cheese-grater abs then you're wasting time.

Yeah that's pretty much true. A lot of the people I hung around with in college were studying some sort of computer-related course and they were the funniest people you could ever meet. They could reference entire comedy show episodes in one night.

I usually go for slightly weird and geeky girls but it's becoming harder to find them these days.
