this was the peak of "BEING GEEKY IS SO COOL AND QUIRKY" phase of the 2010's and looking back at it it's such a train wreck, People don't need to identify as Geek or Nerd just have interests and hobbies but don't base your whole personality on what movies and video games you enjoy and dating someone shouldn't be solely based on " WOW GORSH WE BOTH LIKE DR.WHO AND HARRY POTTER! WE'RE A PERFECT MATCH!" The reason these dates almost all failed is because there should be more to you than "I like Harry Potter, south park quote, i'm weird"
I think it sucks because traditional community and media is hurting, look at the volunteering scene in your area for example. Seems to stem from economic problems
"this may be too forward but im wearing ironman underwear right now" well you have ironman ON your underwear, but how would you like ironman IN your underwear? ;)
I hate when they act like they can't find someone because they like Darth Vader or some shit. No, you can't find someone because you're unhygienic and have poor social skills
Protip : Moderation. Keep Predator heads and Spider-man statues out of the kitchen, zero to maybe a small amount in the livingroom - like on a bookshelf - and a few in the bedroom. People like to feel at home where they are, and I know if I walked into someone's apartment that's super pink with Twilight statues everywhere I wouldn't be at ease. Of course there's always someone who will love that but general rule is to ease people into your personality - think of kindling to a fire - and not just smother them with it right away.
The guy that Allison ended up going on a date with, James, was my boyfriend at the time of filming this show. TLC filmed our apartment with all of my belongings hidden, and forced me to sit on the sidewalk outside the restaurant while they filmed the one on one date. James (better known as JCfromNH on social media) has always dreamed of being famous. Make him famous for being a con artist and a lying narcissist.
Wait, I would love to learn more about this if you're ok with sharing. James' episode is like one of the most hidden ones that you can't even find on the official achieved website. Did he tell you he was going to do this? Or was it late notice?
I dont think they went out past that. Because Mr Iron Man Sal the next year got on a show called 'Fangasm' and he tried to get with a girl on that show. Check that one out too
