She Only Fell for Him Once He Stopped Hiding His Nerd Side, Emmy and Brian's Nerd Love Story

😤 "Just Be Yourself" is the most claiché dating advice. But this episode shows you why not showing your nerd self may be keeping you from marrying your Player 2. Because you often don't know what you might be missing until you let your guard down.🙅‍♀️ In this episode, Emmy and Brian share how they could not stand each other for 3 years, even though they shared the same social circles. She thought he was fake. He thought she was too much. Neither of them had any idea they would end up married.✨ Then one weekend, Brian stopped performing. He wore his nerdy shirts, made his geeky jokes, and let himself be silly without worrying about what anyone thought. That was the first time Emmy actually saw him. And that was all it took.🎮 If you've been toning yourself down around people you want to impress, hiding your nerd side because you're afraid of how it will land, this episode is for you. The version of you that you keep tucked away might be exactly the version your Player 2 has been waiting to meet.🎧 Listen to Emmy and Brian's story and find out what happens when you finally let yourself be seen.👾 FREE GUIDE: WHERE NERDS REALLY MEET THEIR PLAYER 2 🕹️Based on real-world nerd data.
