Girls are nerds too. They won’t admit it if you make it dangerous to do so. Like say, gatekeeping, calling them not true fans, pretending they don’t exist and leaving passive aggressive remarks when someone shares a story involving one.

Careful, you’re making too much sense on the internet

I’ll go along with it because, as a former middle schooler myself, I know that middle schoolers are insane and capable of anything.

Add hormones to the mix, and forget it. I don’t know how any of us survived.

I’m convinced half the reason school exists is to isolate the poor monsters for the better part of the day, so society can try and function.

Well it wouldn’t make sense without the N there right?! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Actually, what the heck is that ‘N’ for anyway? Nicholas?

Hmmm I think a “Broseph” would be appropriate.

I’ve always been partial to Broseidon, King of the Broceans.

Wouldn’t have fit, though.

When I was in highschool I had a girl go on and on about how much she loved Star Wars. I was into Star Trek and thought she was trying to annoy me. After graduation I he friends told me she was into me and wanted to hang out.

I had a different girl ask me to teach her D&D. I invited her and one of my friendliest players over and proceeded to run a simple session. She didn’t seem to want to learn the rules but kept asking me questions and listening to me intently. She basically ignored the other player. I finished that session super confused. Later she asked me to come to her house to see her new bikini top and it all clicked.

I 100% believe it could happen.

You see, I, too, was once an awkward nerdy middle school girl and the go-to move for showing a guy you liked him was to get way into one of his hobbies.

Agreed. My ex learned how write software for the ti-84 calculator because I was REALLY into it. Girl found her way in. Smart lady, I miss her sometimes.

I heard this story from a third party, so I can’t prove it’s true, but supposedly the head of IT security at a previous job met his wife when she compromised his home network to get his attention.
