8 Reasons To Date A Nerd
Giphy

Nerds have been considered as, up until recently, very undesirable people. Contrary to this idea, I've found them to be among the most loving, understanding and desirable people on this earth. Here's eight reasons why you should always choose the nerd:

1. They worship you.

Dating the nerd is a different experience because they aren't like the players. They haven't been trained to get only one thing from a girl. If the nerd is with you, he's there because he likes you on the inside, and that shows.

2. They're thoughtful.

He's going to think of every detail. Dating a nerd is a nice change because he'll think before he acts. Nerds are analytical, they can sense how you're feeling and anticipate how to resolve it for you.

3. They're fun.

The good nerds spend a lot of their time playing video games and watching movies. Dating the nerd gives you the best of both worlds because you have an adult man who plays no games, but who also enables you to reminisce in your childhood.

4. They love wholeheartedly.

Basically every video game or movie with any real story line involves romance. Nerds don't need to get around your entire school to know how to treat you right, because they've been learning about real love their whole lives.

5. They text back.

It might take ten minutes for his League of Legends match to be over, but you won't be competing with 20 other girls for his attention on a Saturday night.

6. They're hilarious.

Dating a nerd is never dull. Their jokes are usually pretty vulgar, and you might get sick of the endless references to internet memes and Claptrap from Borderlands, but you wont be bored.

7. They're great cooks.

Nerds were the unintentional inventors of hangover food. From a young age, they stayed up all night playing video games, and without their parents to make them something to eat at 3 a.m., they had to get creative. A nerd is someone who will never cook you something healthy, but who really cares?

8. They're underdogs.

Everyone loves a good underdog story, right? Nerds are the ones who society tells us are undesirable, but when they becomes successful- that completely reverses. It's extremely wrong to overlook someone their entire life until they're deemed desirable by society's standards.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
