Would you want to date someone much smarter than you? (178)

Panther0077: Hello Italian muse, I like to be honest to a woman so I will tell you that I prefer dumb bimbos. However, if I conclude that the only way to get into your knickers is by discussing Steve Hawkins and Paulo Coelho with you, then ... hmmm! I might take some paracetamol or aspirin tablets, brace myself and listen to your intellectual talk for 2 hours or so knowing that if I do so I am going home with you to your bad after that:)

Then once I have got what I want I will tell you that I am not really interested in those authors and only want to talk about simplistic things such as music, fashion and the Suma Katra:)


as I've always suspected. don't talk to them. just be sure to get urs first girls!!grin

Moviebuff: You meet someone. They are attractive and interesting and seem to like you.

They are also clearly out of your league when it comes to brains. Maybe he or she is in Mensa, speaks half a dozen languages or was a child progidy who graduated college before hitting puberty. Maybe they are just incredibly quick witted in conversation. Whatever the specifics you get the feeling that this person is, well, just a good deal smarter than you.

Would you be too intimidated to enter a relationship or would you take it your stride? Or would you maybe find it a turn on?




I love to meet people who are smarter than me.
I enjoy being around people who are so intelligent, I have to take notes, and do research to understand them.

I seek the company of people who know more than me.
I try to learn enough, to be able to eventually add to their knowledge too.

invinciblemuse: Dammit - I was gonna send you a flower and discuss Steven Hawking and Paulo Coelho with you. Let me hand you a club to bash me on the head with, that might do the trick since I'm a blonde anyway...


But you could dye your locks brown and talk to me about fashion and make up ..... then we could have fun:)

RDM59: Yes Please, I've not got a problem with that.


Normal classroom attire - frilly knickers, stockings sussies and Choos/Louboutins (probably Choos - Louboutin does the red sole thang)......

...... Meanwhile back in the real world. A lot of teachers are difficult to date as they are bossy, don't comprehend the pressures of the commercial world, expect to do things during 13 weeks hols a year (compared to your 4 + mandatory week at Christmas) and can be pedantic. Please note I say a lot - not all there are some fabulous schoolies of course.

Hang on, I've reconsidered - you can be the woman in our relationship, everyone comes running to me anyway when there's a hornet to be killed or a tyre to be changed... rolling on the floor laughing

Love that lipstick you're wearing today, but did you have to go so heavy on the eyeliner?? tongue

Panther0077: I prefer a dumb blonde because let's face it, the driving force in me dating is not to learn about Einstein or Shakespeare. I've got the libraries and my intellectual friends for such intellectual stimulation.

The reason I date is so as to get laid so I want a blonde bimbo who only talks about what colours she should paint her nails or what styles to make her hair and talks all day about Jordan, Kerry Kantona and Pamela Anderson. Let's face it after spending a pretty stressful day at work tasking all your intellectual capabilities, the last thing you need is to come back home and have your partner talking about Shakespeare or Einstein's theories to you! So, bring on the bimbos:)



Ah... an honest man! cheering

And for me, honesty would be to say that I prefer he be at least of average intelligence, but that he be extra good at "man stuff," like fixing things and killing spiders. handshake

I'm definitely not a blonde but maybe I should start trying to date really smart women using my small but perfectly formed IQ as a plus. The thinking girls male bimbo - for stress free evenings. grin

Okay, you could gossip about your friends and famous people including all those in Hello magazine. If all that fails then just keep schmuck, keep silent and take of your clothes and wait for me:)

Are you kidding??? If someone like that chose me as a life partner, I'd be honoured, deleriously happy, overwhelmed even.

My dad was a high-flyer. His IQ was clocked at around 168, so I know what it's like to be in the room with somewhere who's got you beat on all fronts, especially on sheer speed of thought and intellect.

Why wouldn't I? Intimidated? Probably a little (I wouldn't say I won't beer ), but after all... she still is a woman. And sometimes, smart women even have a more simple way of living than the 'less-smart' one wine

If I think my date is smarter than I am, then I just have a few more drinks to boost my smartness and good-lookin' factor by 20%.
