What makes a person a nerd?

A nerd is a person seen as overly intellectual, obsessive, introverted or lacking social skills. Additionally, many so-called nerds are described as being shy, quirky, pedantic, and unattractive.

Can a nerd be popular?

Absolutely. Typically nerds are socially awkward, but that's not the definitive characteristic of nerds, and if you are socially awkward it doesn't mean you can't be popular, it just means you have to work harder at it. Nerds are intelligent, so you can use your brain to figure out how to be a popular person.

Why nerds are not popular?

The main reason nerds are unpopular is that they have other things to think about. Their attention is drawn to books or the natural world, not fashions and parties. They're like someone trying to play soccer while balancing a glass of water on his head.

Are all nerds smart?

Generally nerds are considered extra intelligent to the extent that they sacrifice social skills and physical activity in pursuit of mental development. In my personal view, all nerds are smart, perhaps not in every area, but definitely they exhibit advanced intelligence.
