However...

Okay, not freaking out about social interactions, blah blah, yes I know, but just one thing: as we parted, standing awkwardly around, unsure of how exactly dates are supposed to end, he said "Maybe we'll keep in touch." I guess he was just groping for something to say, but surely he could have done better than that!

There are word people and there are math people. You want words? Stick with the social sciences. At the risk of starting trouble, what good ever came from math aside from the occasional cute mathematician?

Mathematicians I know nothing about but...considering the weak math genes in our family, this is another factor to consider.

Actually, I think you should see if you can't find minor electrical problem that needs fixing in your apartment and then see if a a really cute electrician turns up to fix it. All the electrical contractors I ever knew made tons of money and were interesting, fun men. By the time I met them they were all married (and to very nice women), so this advice is strictly without first hand experience but, nevertheless, could be very valuable to you.

Yeah, or a plumber.
