Nerd love can be unrequited for quite some time, but eventually (if you look hard enough) there’s a somebody out there for everybody, nerds included.
We search for, and obsess over, the geeky guy or girl of our dreams, and then one day (if we’re lucky) we meet someone who has the same delightfully nerdy tendencies and our hearts join forces.
And then, about a month or two later, you discover that your nerd love isn’t living up to expectations, and that there are certain elements of nerddom that take all the allure out of a romantic relationship.
Dorkly’s JHALL created this very relatable comic strip detailing Expectations Vs. Reality- Dating Someone As Nerdy As You, take a peek and see if you relate to this comic as much as I do!

Should be "dating a WOMAN as nerdy as you". Notice it's all about the guy's expectations.

I like the "Living Together" section of the comic strip the best. I'm far more geeky than my wife, who has kindly permitted me to fill an entire wall of our home with Ninja High School posters. And the other walls with anime paraphernalia.
