There are many types of love
The adventures of our twenties
When love was fresh / and scary
For most young men, it was action
For most young women, it was romance
But those were simulations
And neither was reality
For nerds of both genders
It was role-playing
Remember, I said it was scary
Playing roles made it less so
It made it exciting and fun
But also not real
Some found love playing sports
Others solving puzzles
I took the strategy route
Until I learned to surrender
