Who else had a hard time believing Geordi had found a woman actually willing to stick around and have two kids with him in Season 4 of Picard? Come on, Geordi actually having sex? With a woman?

Geordie had an incredible counsellor on board the ship, my head canon is that after many many sessions, Deanna said enough is enough and got a restraining order.
Geordie was a brilliant engineer even by Starfleet standards, so he kept his job

Having not watched Picard, my head canon will be he maintained a relationship with Sonya, the nerdy Ensign who spilled her Hot Chocolate all over Picard.

The first two seasons were so-so, but Season 3 was basically a TNG reunion complete with the Enterprise D, so it was lots of fun.

Poor Sonya Gomez. She can grow to be the badass captain of an Obena-class cruiser and slated to go on first contact missions, but that's not how we remember her.

Spill cocoa on the captain of the flagship, though...

I think there is a reference to a third kid who we don’t see on screen.

Why would it be hard to picture him having sex with a woman?

Geordi was not exactly lucky with the ladies.

Edit: Even LeVar Burton thinks so!

"I'd settle with him having a date with somebody he didn't invent on the Holodeck," Burton says. "If he could just have sex with a real person, I'd be so happy!"

Because he usually goes for either robots or ghosts

Why does engineering look like a FedEx office?

It does, haha

Remember, kids.

Use passwords.

I just watched that episode a few days ago. What was he thinking, keeping that around? It was actually in the official engineering logs as a reference item, which is how she found it.
