Awkward Embraces - Geek Dating

As we've already seen in "Dating in the Middle Ages": Dating is hard. For everyone, equally. But being a geek and trying to date can be a very unique experience. The web series Awkward Embraces gives us an insight into geek dating.

Creator/ writer/ producer and star Jessica Mills, shows the ups and downs of single life, with a geeky twist. Mills just happens to love Star Trek and going to Comic-Con. Her co-stars Candis Phlegm and Lyndsey Doolan try to help her with her various dating misadventures while struggling through their own the most hilarious way possible. Directed by Adam Jason Finman, Awkward Embraces shows us “nerdy girls need love too.”
