Smart Guys Don't Get The Girls, 10 Reasons Why. Options

[O x LiseE x O]

:\ To much to read, I just read the bold parts [I am a girl by the way] and I was gonna say "I've liked smart guys before!" but... I haven't? All the guys I liked were just funny and that's why I liked them. *gasp* I don't like smart guys...

[danishcookiez]

aw man, i usually crush on this type

[fameONE]

I've run into this problem slightly but the intelligence issue is quickly overshadowed by a few simple facts...

1. I'm good with money. I only work at Express and somehow can make a grand a just a few pay periods. How? Hell, I'm not even sure.

2. Did I mention that I'm a straight guy with good fashion sense who works at Express? Women seem to dig that.

3. I'm a nice guy. I'm genuwinely kind hearted when it comes to those of the opposite. Normally this is a huge pitfall because girls will stampede on a gentle heart, or just take it as 'getinthepantss' scheme, but its worked. And when it hasn't...

4. I have a motorcycle. There's the "bad boy" to balance out the equation.

5. I'm somewhat knowledgeable when it comes to exploring the pleasures of eroticism and I know how to do it without being forthright. Women seem to enjoy this as well.

What did we learn?

If you are a nice guy with an edge, you have money, dress well and know how to "please" a woman, it doesn't matter how smart/dumb you are.

my simple answer:

highly intelligent men dont get the ladies because...
they make the ladies feel stupid.

it's the same way for highly intelligent girls.

my friend's counselor told her that most harvard guys don't look for girlfriends in their own school, but go to their sister school, simmons (all girls college) to get girlfriends. why? simply because harvard guys are too intimidated by the girls at their own school.

well i wouldnt know im not exactly the smart type, im not dumb, just not super smart

Same with me. They only problem I have is when girls suffer from the "paradox" - thinking that they're always right and the best around.

[SSJ Kenshin]

I agree with a couple of those, but others I don't

[HoodieObsessed]

weird.

I like smart guys...then they can help me with my homework!! wheee

umm, but ya I guess if a guy corrrects you all the itme and makes you feel stupid that's no good...I donno, I don't think it really matters wether you are smart or not, jsut how you act.

just my opinion.

[weirdness]

I don't think it just depends on like, their intelligence. I think it's whether if their open-minded or not, because all 10 reasons are because the guy is close minded.

Well, it is true that this only applies to the HIGHLY intelligent people of our society, so they have the point that smart guys' strong points are in intelligence and solving logic and etc., but their weakness is in emotions.

What about Donald Trump and Bill Gates? =( Money-hungry ladies are lining up outside their door, bling bling!

[michelina0kudelk...]

hey, guys.....theres smart girls out there too! i might be blonde haired and blue eyed, and i may appear ditzy outta the classroom, but i've got one of the highest averages in gr.9 at my school, and most of the above 90 averages in gr.9 are girls averages...
just sayin, all that talk about the burden pn intelligent men because they are always right made me sick, im smart, i get used to being right, but that doesn't mean i lack in social skills, and i cant stand being around people who are dumb....come on, if this really is how intelligent men think, we should put a hole in your egos!


oh and ditch the pocket protectors and hiked up pants, im smart and i do not look nerdy so you dotn have to either:P

ps. the top marks in gr9 at my school are also not nerdy looking people....the more eduacationally challenged among us tend to be the nerdy looking people with big egos...


also, might sound like i have a big ego here, i really dont im just annoyed and attempting to make a point :D

[JlIaTMK]

If you are talking about the girls that overload on the makeup and slut themselves all their life and giggle like ravaging chaotic beasts, then I must agree with you.

[Mireh]

I love intelligent guys. =P I really can't stand stupidity or immaturity.

[JlIaTMK]

Mireh, [a little off topic] I thought you were a male.... Since when did your sign change? :P

[Ballpointpencil]

"Women don't feel ATTRACTION for men who make them THINK."
Uh, not necessarily. My boyfriend and I first became friends because we had debates on band trips. He made me think, and we had fun together.
'Course, we might get along so well because I am smarter than him. ;) Just kidding (or not, heh). :P

The article is off for many intelligent guys. Way off.

[Joss-eh-lime]

that thing was pretty stupid. like, i didnt even want to finish reading it. ur smart..ur smart....ur stupid? go find a stupid girl.

[sk8ter4life750]

Im smart in all but half of thoes don't apply to me.. I am very social.. I play sports have non geeky friends so why don't I get the girls?

[dopeSOUL]

eh.. iono.. im not smart

[iwannakisshim]

oh, puh-lease. i've dated a lot of smart people. and sure, maybe i crush for nerds. but you know what? it is not completely impossible for the nerd to get the girl. Travis is proof of that. even though we're not exactly dating anymore...

[JustAnotherTeena...]

I usually go for the smart guys. I like it when we're on about the same level of intelligence, & I'm pretty advanced in school, so..yeah. Good looks are just an added bonus Trust me, it IS possible for very intelligent guys to get girls..just go for the ones that are smart, like you! Try to be nice, & funny, & such...

[fameONE]

I think the list referred to the guys that are so incredibly intelligent, that they are intellectual elitests and have a hard time socializing with others. Not just smart guys in general.

[bonjour]

is some kind of joke?

i have a 4.0 gpa and have had at least 10 girlfriends since the 7th grade and even did it with on of 'em.

[ghetosmurph]

I am smart, like really smart, like 97.4 avg this past year and taking advanced sophmore classes as a freshman.... however i do not agree w/ the majority of the points in tht article.... no social skills??? I have a ton of friends, not all necessarily my age, but a ton anyway, and i don't kno about other smart guys but the major reason i don't have a girlfriend isn't b/c im chicken or afraid or don't kno how to act, or think i am superior at everything ect.... it's b/c I don't see wht the hell i am going to do with a girlfriend at this point in life.... I am 15, i don't have a car, my parents would freak out and I def. don't want them involved in my private life , i mean other than talk at school (cause i go to a private school where they like segregate the girls and guys at assemblies and stuff and have teachers walking around making sure noone is closer than 6 inches @ dances ect. it's really scary...) and maybe hang out, what am i gonna do with a girlfriend??? i'd rather just hang out with my friends, both guys and girls.... build up real relationships with real friends than one tht is just gonna break prolly within a year..... i don't see the point

[ichigofan]

yup that sounds right, I went out with a really smart guy and he was no fun it was all about useless facts and blah blah blah it was like watching the titanic his ship had sunk since the start =D

^^ I hope that made sense

[dragyn]

The problem is not that they're intelligent. It's that they're not intelligent enough. The people this article is talking about are the ones with the intelligence level just below those that are smart enough to acknowledge that they aren't always right. It takes some form of intelligence and observation to realize that you aren't perfect. This article isn't talking about the most intelligent people, just the fairly intelligent people.

[malsnave]

no comment......

i'm smart fo my age, bt i hav my gurl steady...
