Argh! These non-geek people with their "relationships" and "socializing" and "friendships". They should really get a life and spend more time with their computers.

in front of several people, a medium group setting... one of the administrative assistants approached me and said "can i ask you a question?" being dumb as i am, i said "sure" and she said "are you single?" to which i said "why? i am considering getting a cat" and she replied "i just think Laura is cute. i am just saying" (Laura is my admin assistant) i said "well maybe you should date her" and for some reason people thought my response was innapropriate. :|

You work in a male dominated industry yet apparently have an office full of women, some of whom we are led to believe are cute. What's more, they are happy to talk to you. I've got one thing to say. Quit your bitching.
I'm largely language agnostic
After a while they all bug me :doh:

Next time, respond with "she's on the wrong team." That'll leave them guessing at the innuendos of that statement. Marc

actually and to keep matters in perspective. we are led to believe that at least one is considered cute by her female peers. having never been cute, nor having more than a few women here (who are all cute), but I have no idea their perspectives of each other.... therefore there is no common ground from which to verify that this new reference does make her cute.... however, given the male dominated and asocial nature of our collective industry.... There is the strong possibility of bias on my side finding all woman cute. Therefore we have learned nothing about the cuteness of the individual without asking....

I guess we should have figured that out otherwise you would not have been bothered by the question.

Well I will add psychology of dating 101: In order to date someone you like, you need to date someone. If you are dateless, the first question raised about you is "why isn't he seeing anyone?" If you are not dateless, regardless (within reason) of the quality of the beau, it proves you are dateable and must, therefore (regardless of fact), have something going for you Then again I haven't dated in 7 years, so I'm a tad rusty :D

I would add that with dating that confidence plays a huge part. When I had no confidence in myself women detected this and stayed as far away from me as they could even women that I was not attracted to. Once I gained confidence (by dating women) women (even good looking ones) show a lot more interest in me. To be honest, cutting my hair and getting braces played a part too but I believe the confidence had the most effect since that came first.
