		<p></p><p>Recent events have got me wondering what side of <em>the chase</em> we&#8217;re all on. Do you like the game? Do you like to do the <em>chasing </em>or be <em>chased</em>?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s all so complicated and quite frankly, I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;m a fan. I went took a trip online to the <strong>Urban Dictionary for a definition</strong>. Here are the two definitions offered (by the way, you can <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=the+chase">go there</a> and vote for which one you like better)</p>
<p>1 &#8211; One person&#8217;s romantic pursuit of another, oftentimes not fueled by actual desire for a relationship. i.e., <em>He is very romantic at first, but he is only interested in the chase. </em></p>
<div class="example">2 -The period before a relationship (or before a rejection) where a guy attempts to create the romantic bond. Involves much dating and confusion. i.e.,<em> I have been working on this girl for over 3 months.  God, the chase can be so strenuous. </em></p>
<div class="example"><em><br />
</em></div>
<div class="example">Indeed, the chase does involve much dating and confusion.<em> </em>So what about you, what side of the chase are you on?</div>

<p><strong>1. You help him commit a road-rage induced crime</strong></p>

<p><strong>3. He likes music from the 70s</strong> (his favorite band is the Bee Gees) and you think it&#8217;s cute.</p>
<p>4. You catch him picking his nose and it only grosses you out slightly.</p>
<p>5. You tell him that when you hear people slurp their soup you want to punch them in the face. <strong>He laughs, says &#8220;me too&#8230;&#8221;, and then punches out your best friend.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>6. He knows what you&#8217;re going to order from the menu before you do.</p>
<p>7. He understands your compulsive need to give compliments and so he makes sure to compliment you whenever he can.</p>

		<p></p><p>Many-a-writers have discussed what it is like to date geeks, to love geeks, and even to <a href="http://www.completeevil.com/geek.html">marry geeks</a>. There are advantages to <a href="http://www.datingtales.net/2007/09/dating-a-nerd-pros-and-cons/">dating a geek</a> like the fact that he is probably very smart and professionally successful. There is also the reality that he is easily the nicest and most considerate of all your other boyfriends put together, and the fact that he never takes you for granted. A nerdy-partner will appreciate you and tell you that often.</p>
<p><strong>The Not-so-Great Side of Dating a Geek</strong></p>
<p>He&#8217;s probably shorter than you and your friends have no idea why you like him because he&#8217;s so shy he won&#8217;t talk to them. Don&#8217;t forget about the <a href="http://www.datingtales.net/2007/09/dating-a-nerd-pros-and-cons/">pros and cons of dating a nerd</a>. Never get too far in a relationship with thinking through why you like him or her.</p>
<p><strong>Online Dating for Geeks</strong></p>

<p>2) Do you agree on how you would discipline children?</p>
<p>3) Does he treat you good even after being in the car for twelve hours?</p>
<p>4) When you share French fries does he make sure you get enough? – or – Does he save the last piece of sushi for you?</p>
<p>5) After a party at your house does he help you clean up?</p>
<p>6) When you drive does he keep quiet and not do too much back seat driving?</p>
<p>7) Is he helpful to old ladies in the grocery store?</p>
<p> <img src='http://www.datingtales.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8)' class='wp-smiley' /> Do you remember the last time he gave you a <a href="http://www.datingtales.net/compliments">compliment</a>?</p>
<p>If you answered no to three or more of these questions, then I’m sorry girl. I’m not sure he’s the one for you.</p>
