Relationship Stereotypes? Are all programmers really single?

Question

Many people are saying that for example guys who are learning about (working in) IT sector, programming for example, are single, or in other words without the other half(significant other). I hate stereotypes like these, so I wanted to ask, it is kinda private but, how many of you guys/girls are in a relationship? Maybe the question is stupid, but I wanted to ask this for some reason. I have a gf myself, and I know there are many older peeps here, but nvm :))

Answer 1

Yea, I hate those people who are saying that. Sorry @Ruka :P

Answer 2

I'm not single. I'm in relationships with virtual characters from another dimension.

... It's less BS to deal with.

Answer 3

You are a youngster Caleb. Don't worry, everything will come :))

Answer 4

No programmer are all not single the say this because they can't be us.
Even though I am single that's by my choice I am searching for a relation which has less bug and never like those useless hours of calls. Maybe in that time I would play 10 challenge, post answers, or read lesson here.

Answer 5

@Alex So true. It's all just how much time it takes. I don't have much free time on my hands.

Answer 6

I work in IT for ten years now and I'm in a relationship. so I don't really fit into the stereotype.

Answer 7

I never had any trouble finding a girlfriend, I'm happily engaged after many relationships now and i think the stereotype is closer to being a programmer is being too busy to have a relationship is why many stay single.
