nerd culture is a bizarre late capitalist form of religion imo. there's an entire class of adults who take their pop culture consumer brands more seriously than anything IRL. 'Fandoms' are pagan sects worshipping the One True Commodity in its many different forms.
nerds are really easy to manipulate for political ends, the Hillary Campaign was just the latest and most blatant example. idpol liberals, as well as nerd reactionaries, live in the make believe bullshit world of the Brand

Is it really too much to ask to find a girl, who has the same attitude towards life as I do? We have duties towards God, our country, the people around us, our ancestors and our future descendants, and I seek to fulfill these duties the best I can. I want to become the absolute best man I can be, but I'm yet to meet a girl who wants to become the best woman. I just want someone to walk this road with, but even the Christian women I meet tend to be pretty vapid and average. I know girls, who would undoubtedly become my gf if I asked them to, but none of them are of adequate "quality" for me.

>tfw no muse, who would become the mother of my children

Eh, my girlfriend says she wouldn't have looked twice at me if I hadn't had a book in my hand. Maybe there's something to that.

>>9353200
In my experience most genuinely bookish girls (i.e. reading more than YA) tend to be pretty nihilistic and misanthropic, and not at all religious. My girlfriend, for example, is agnostic. My best friend, who's a lesbian and my mother and sisters (all of whom read good books) are all atheists.

I think those combinations of god fearing, traditional women and readers are not common.

Or you could have some deep character flaw that's not mentioned in your little brag post. You are on 4chan afterall.

>>9353200
You were raised on feel good fairy tales about women who wanted an equal partner and someone to love and grow with.
Dispel that illusion and realize the truth: women are fundamentally, biologically different from men. Your best chance is to get a fairly high value gf that will stay loyal because she knows you are better than her. Give up your dreams of finding a girl that is on (or anywhere close to) your level intellectually or spiritually. Instead, look for a girl who you don't mind spending time with and is fairly reasonable and rational. Good luck

Honestly, do you guys have like no experience with functional relationships?

I only come here to talk about books and occasionally /his/tory. I don't hate the world the way the rest of this site does, and thus don't think women are pure evil or whatever you guys think-ditto with black people and every other group y'all hate.

I don't get it. Have you never found good women? Were you not raised by one? Is that why you can't believe that relationships can actually just...work?

>>9353266
>own 9000 euros
that's not a brit my man

>>9353267
There is a science to relationships, attraction, sexuality, etc. It's all very well studied.
Few things to keep in mind:
Women will only go UP the ladder when choosing a partner, and they like to go very far up. Women rate 80% of guys as "below average" in looks.
Dick is cheap and pussy is expensive, this is further inflated by social media and apps like tinder. Any average chubby girl can go on tinder and get fucked by Chad nowadays, so you are worth less to her.
Also: women are naturally attracted to more violent and dangerous men, they would rather be with a drug dealer than a beta provider.
Fun fact: something like 40% of all men through history NEVER reproduced, whereas very few women didn't reproduce.
This is all simple biology, yet people still wonder why men are upset nowadays...

>>9353217
>I think those combinations of god fearing, traditional women and readers are not common.

This might be true. At least the women I know from uni, who read higher literature and not YA crap, are not religious.

>Or you could have some deep character flaw that's not mentioned in your little brag post
I'm a manlet.

>>9353218
>women are fundamentally, biologically different from men
This is very much true. I'm not really looking for a female version of myself, but I'd like to be able to have an intellectual conversation with her. Men and women have different functions and tasks in family and society, and big part of the problem is that women are too "liberated" today to accept this.

>>9353228
>a short, slipshod post on a Mongolian fishing forum in a non-native language is an accurate representation of one's literary prowess

>>9353233
I am.

>>9353237
I don't deny that I might be to some degree a bit self-absorbed and conceited, but I do my best to keep such feelings inside my head and not let them show. The point I was trying to make with my original post was not that I can't get a smart gf, but that I can't find a girl, who's smart and shares the same values. I could call one smart girl right now and ask her on a date, and she would be overjoyed, but our plans for life don't meet. In truth, I am pretty good with girls, but it's just that none of the ones I've met is eligible for dating and marriage.

Well I've read about them.

>>9353288
But you've never seen functional relationships? Besides, I'm near about equal to her in terms of talents, only I'm an artist rather than a musician.

>This is all simple biology, yet people still wonder why men are upset nowadays...

I'm a man, I'm not upset. I have two parents who are happily married and have been for 25 years, a fiance I love, good friends and a good family (bar extended family-they suck). And I'm not the standard "Chad" or whatever it is you call it. I earn a decent amount but I'm no billionaire, I'm healthy but not buff, I haven't "fucked lots of bitches" in my life, I'm not an arrogant, aggressive ass. Nor is my dad, and as I said he and my mother have been together for years.

That's probably why you can't find a girl. You just have to accept that society has moved on and go with the flow, find a decent girl who's not a whore and figure out the work/life balance as you go. Women tend not to want the "traditional" model anymore, at least in the west. All the aggression and anger in the world is not going to change that.

Having something more 50/50 isn't the end of the world. I know plenty of families operating like that, and they're content and happy.

Besides, isn't Finland one of those socialist paradises or something, from what I know of it? Women are MORE likely to be like that there.

I am the kind of woman you describe, but I already have a long term boyfriend. I wish he agreed to go to the gym with me and I wish he read near as much as I do. I also speak more languages than him. But you know, he loves me and that's all that matters, I'm not going to give up on him. I think you should also stop striving for 'the ideal' woman. No one is perfect and finding someone who deserves to be loved is just as fair as finding someone who you think is good enough.

She wouldn't have to be a housewife or anything like that, but I do realize my traditional values vastly decrease the size of the pool of possible partners.

>Besides, isn't Finland one of those socialist paradises or something, from what I know of it? Women are MORE likely to be like that there.
Finland is far from paradise, and according to some study the women here are pretty much the most promiscuous sluts in the world. There are some exceptions, of course, but it saddens me to see how low our people has sunk.

>>9353417
It's nice to hear that you exist after all. I understand that it would be foolish to think someone could ever be perfect, and I'm far form perfect myself, but I still have hope to find a girl more fitting for me than the ones I know.

A small nest egg that barely covers a downpayment is not what women want.

They want wage-slaves to maintain them in traditional roles they all secretly aspire too. I know several male doctors/residents/MEDICAL STUDENTS who were greasy betas who scored 7+/10 because some chick saw them as an investment

>>9353785
Well, a gold-digger is not what I'm after, so I'll just leave those women to the doctors and medical students. Nevertheless, I am objectively pretty well off for a student. The point I was trying to make was that unlike many of the people I know, I don't drink or gamble my money or spend it on other frivolities. Once I've graduated and started working, my wealth is going to start increasing pretty fast.
