Re: do only geek guys like

[ariakas]

Sure, but I actually am quite attracted to less fit geek dudes, myself. The interest just isn't mutual, usually. And not to stereotype, but the fit men who are very interested rarely break the triple-digit threshold in terms of IQ, which isn't as satisfying as it could be.

It's become something of a running gag with my friends (one got a kitten that was sickeningly adorable but kept bashing its head into things, and my friend joked "look, it's one of Ari's boyfriends" lol) but honestly this is probably more than 50% who's attracted to me rather than who I'm attracted to. I've thought plenty of geek dudes were super cute.

Erm, sorry, think I might have been a bit confusing there - "perceived" was meant to be modifying both attractiveness and mutual interest. That people make assumptions about mutual interest based on perceived attractiveness, that... well, to put it bluntly, the idea was that less fit geeky dudes might be less likely to conceive of you being interested in them or to pick up on any signs of attraction that are there. I think the way that we think about these things even on a very subconscious level can affect this sort of thing. And not just in terms of attractiveness, either, but in terms of perceived interests and lifestyle. I mean, in one of the posts ITT you have someone saying exactly that.

Of course, if that really doesn't tally with your experience, that's the way it is. It was just a thought.
