Nowadays staying up until two a.m. and turning the pages of an exciting book can almost seem like an extinct activity. In today’s society, readers are quickly dwindling by the dozens, and finding someone who enjoys scoping out libraries, spending hours in a bookstore or sitting content under an old tree with only a book in their hands, can seem slightly impractical. Despite the difficult odds, when you do find someone who has a passion for reading and understands the power of books, there are many reasons why you should consider asking them out on a date.
1. They are wise beyond their years and tend to have deeper knowledge when it comes to relationships.
Chances are, readers have fallen in love a variety of times when reading their favorite books. They have lived many different lives through the eyes of their characters, felt their most exciting moments, learned from their mistakes and applied those same themes to their own lives.
2. They have a sense of solitude and can entertain themselves.
When dating a reader, you do not have to go out every night to keep them satisfied, they can just as easily enjoy a night in by giving them a book to get lost in.
3. They are easy to shop for.
You will never have to struggle with wondering what to buy for them, just as long as you know how to get to the bookstore.
4. They will encourage you to read, too.
If you are dating a bookworm, they will most likely wish to share the beauty of their favorite stories with you. By experiencing the value of a great book, it can open many doors to the depths of your mind and could even inspire a new love to read. Plus, reading to each other could possibly be one of the most romantic activities ever.
5. There’s always a way to spark an interesting conversation.
There are no conversations like the conversations that result from the views and opinion on the same piece of literature. Whether it be a mutual love for the characters or a raging debate on the plot, you will never be bored when it comes to discussing books with an avid reader.
