Ever since Michael Cera became hot leading guy material, we've been thinking about the dorky guys we often overlook. In our experience, nothing about our nerdy next-door-neighbor ever really inspired any naughty thoughts (except for you know...free homework help). But it turns out that this slightly geeky breed of men might make the best boyfriends. Here's why.

1. He's capable of memorizing every line of Star Wars and Lord of the Rings so he shouldn't have trouble remembering your birthday and favorite kind of flowers.

2. Sure, he may secretly want to get it on with his super hot neighbor, but knowing that you're the hottest girl he's ever been with will probably keep him from cheating.

3. Geeks tend to be tech-savvy. Which means not only will he be able to fix a computer problem and upgrade your software, but he'll actually enjoy doing it.

4. Although the dumb jock thing is a total cliche, you're unlikely to meet a dorky guy who can't string together a sentence and carry on an intelligent conversation.

5. Since he's supersmart and probably already making a ton of money, he won't think being a roadie for Vampire Weekend is a great "career opportunity."

6. He was probably bullied during high school so he'll be sympathetic when you vent about the office bitch...and help you plot a plan to bring her down.

7. He'll never hog the bathroom to manscape.
