Good point. At 13, my DD has only met about four people at anything like her LOG. Only one of those people (an EG person several years older) was more-or-less "compatible" as any kind of romantic interest.

Er-- or seemed that way initially, anyway, as noted above.

We've always anticipated that it may well take her until graduate studies to find others like herself, and even that may depend on what field she eventually settles into. It's one reason why we've encouraged more "elite" fields of study.
