Dating an Engineer: Pros and Cons
by Sara on August 8, 2007
For every guy that I’ve dated I’ve kept an ongoing list of the pros and cons of the relationship. I know most people save this exercise for when they think they want to break-up, but I find that it’s easier to figure out if you’re compatible during the relationship rather than months after you realize you’ve wasted time.
So here it is. Since I’ve dated a few engineers in my time here are the pros and cons that I have picked up on.
| Pros |
Cons |
|
|
- Sometimes he has the personality
of a protractor
|
- An engineer is handy to have around
|
- He makes obscure jokes about Star Trek,
the periodic table, and other strange things you don’t want to know about AND he thinks thats romance
|
|
|
- Won’t buy anything without completing a
“cost/risk analysis”
|
- He listens more than he talks
|
- When he does talk, you may have a
hard time listening
|
- He’s kind, modest, and nice to your mom
