I Dunno

The female gamer is no longer the rare an elusive creature it once was. Gamer chicks have become a dime a dozen now and a lot of them are playing video games. While I am not that old I still remember a time when my presence in a gaming store would turn a few heads. Not because I'm pretty, but because I had actual breasts and not man-boobs.

This also brings to mind the ratio of male to female geeks. Within a certain radius there tends to be a set number of geeks and circles tend to overlap. I am also reminded of the book "The Knights Next Door" which mentions that if geeks date and then break up it is hard to completely avoid each other because circles will run together and overlap. There are sometimes only so many gamers to go around for any LARP or tabletop games.

This is just me rambling. While not as bad as I was, I still have feelings for someone so my once stagnant mind is wondering about the modern dating scene, how people flirt, physical relations, and so on and so forth. Love is blind a lot of the time, even if you are being told by many sources (including yourself) that nothing will come of it. Being human is interesting and frustrating at times
