Intelligence -- Intimidating or not?

[Tedel]

I personally think that lack of intelligence is the one which is intimidating... don't you agree?

I mean, what kind of life are you going to have in the future, what kind of mother/father will your kids have if you just marry a stupid!

OMG, I don't even want to imagine it...

i think if you're willing to not know as much as somebody else then somebody more intelligent than you isn't going to intimidate you as much.

One of the worst difficulties I have had along my love life has been the fact of being a highly-gifted adult.

Great. You can join the CAM club.

Intelligence? Hmm... Well, having a PhD is sexy, in my opinion. >> Or even just being in the program, not necessarily there yet. Of course, I'm a Computer Science/Math major. I haven't had a real date ever, and I haven't been in a relationship for about a year. I hide my feelings for a certain other person, partly because no one here (at this college, that is) knows her... so either what intelligence I do have is intimidating to others, I'm not attractive /at all/, or I'm doing something horribly wrong. I do hope it isn't the last one. Then again, I most often interact with males of similar study, and CS majors/Engineers are not the best at talking to possible dates in the first place. Ahh, I'm doomed. I'll just assume "not attractive". ._.;

I don't think it's because you're not attractive, moonchild.
