I happen to love working with computers and consider myself knowledgeable on the subject. Just for fun I took this IQ test on the subject of computers and scored a 150, which on their chart was at the very top of the above average category, and only one point from the highest category possible. I think I saw into the future and saw myself alone, unless women like nerds still these days.
Every adult male computer nerd I know has a wife and kids. The nerds make good money, usually are stay-at-home types who don't hang out at bars, love helping neighbors and relatives and friends with computer problems, show their kids how to use computers, usually love any foods the wife makes (i.e., aren't picky eaters), and are stable people.
There is no connection between being computer savvy, and being a loner. There really are plenty of women out there that love men who know their way around a computer.
The best thing to do, is check out classes at your local community center or community college that deal with computers. Take a class or course that deals with something new for you. There you will meet people that have the same interests as you, and hopefully a single woman that shares your love for computers.
If taking a class is a little too expensive (sometimes they can be in the 100's) check out local "clubs" or gatherings in your area that deal with computers. MySpace is actually not a bad place to start. You can look up computer groups and then search for others that are in your city that are into computers.
The main thing is, don't let being a "nerd" get you down. Use it to your advantage to look for women. If a woman can't stand the fact that you like computers, then she isn't for you.
Wow, I have finally heard a guy's IQ higher than mine.
I find that's interesting and would like to talk sometime.
Does it build your confidence? and now you see that a smart woman would like a smart man.
(Edited)When comes to look, it's nothing but what you have inside of you is more important.
Your look can fool foreigns, we can't really tell much difference between white males. For me, yall look good.
Every IT guy I've ever known is married or has a girlfriend. Actually at my last company our IT guys girlfriend was insanely beautiful. What most women look for is someone who is smart and funny and someone with an IQ of 150 I'd say you cover smart. Its all about your own perception if you think you are doomed well then you are doomed.
My boss is an IT geek and has a very high IQ. He has been married 3 times (even calls the current spouse Wife Version 3.0) You aren't doomed. Just figure out what you are looking for in a relationship and go for it.
Biggie -- You mentioned you are "not the good looking type of nerd, though. I kinda look like an offensive lineman type nerd."
That's even better than a 95-pound-weakling nerd. You are not only smart but strong, and can help your wife with spring cleaning and moving all that furniture around. You sound like a keeper!
