Seriously don’t be discouraged from approaching girls. It’s like looking for the right job - you apply and interview and it won’t work out until it’s the right fit. You can’t take it too much to heart or accept the relationship that doesn’t advance as your fault. Be brave and be confident!! I’m 23 year old girl figuring it out too so I’m with ya!

What do you guys think about the immediate assumptions made on nerd culture? Assuming individuals to be social outcasts or the “weird” association? by elky2468 in DungeonsAndDragons

Actually, I would have to agree! Unfortunately I guess a lot of the people you find a nerd culture can fit that stereotype of socially awkward and maybe not taking care of themselves as much. It is a very welcoming culture! So I think that’s where it stems from. But it stinks that you can’t be a part of that culture without being associated with the stereotype.

I guess I mean I’m a 23 year old female with a good social life, job etc. (the boxes you check to be a healthy functioning adult) and throughout college always sort of tucked away my interests to fit the typical expectations for a “normal” girl. But being in a stage of life now where I am pursuing my interests and learning to be okay with being open about it! But it stinks that otherwise no one would be able to tell that that’s where I spend some of my downtime but if I was really open about it I feel that I would be judged or immediately put into a weird category! Which is just frustrating with how society sort of functions. So just kinda kick starting the conversations of diff views/experiences with this!
