While I no longer look like a frumpy nerd and have learned to dress myself well, I still have the typical low self-esteem of a nerd and an aversion to mainstream attractiveness. I only become uncomfortable and confused when a "chad" talks to me, and my instincts tell me to leave because I can't deal with the social butterflies/popular group. (Yeah, I'm trying to overcome it, but as a "chad" this is the kind of mindset you're having trouble with attracting.) Remember, most nerds were the rejected kids during their formative years, so someone who looks like they'd be mainstream attractive, popular, and well-socialized are seen as the antithesis to their existences.
