do smart woman scare guys away?

u know that there times I asked myself that same question..? when I was in college I was so focus in my studies and lots of involvements, having a boyfriend is not part of my plans.. and having three older brothers made me feel like "I got too much of guys in my life!" I was never trying to be charming and sweet just to get a guy's attention, and so I noticed that some guys were intimidated by me, I remember three guys in school who were braved enough to show their interest, one usually treats me with special attention like offering me a seat and waiting for me outside the classroom, the other was a nuisance and asked for my cp no. just so to asked me to make his assignments and update him with the exam skeds, and I've never appreciated any of their offers or give them attention, I shoo them away in purpose by acting tough and made harsh comments, when I was in my senior year, that's when I realized that I'm really intimidating guys, that is when a seatmate in one of my class who was constantly showing he's interested that even my classmates/friends noticed, he usually pretends to catch up with the class discussions and asking me to help him during seatworks so that I could spend time with him for just a minute, and I usually act like I'm distracted. So much I pity him that one time I decided to give it a try to being nice, perhaps it was so sudden that he murmured behind my ear "I thought you're a snob but you weren't" It was really a big blow and so I turned to look at him as he passed beside me but he didnt even look back.. and stops talking to me after that.. It was definetly a lesson for me and I really regret the way I treated him, i never saw him for the next semester and didnt even know if he already graduated.. oh well, I was sorry and learned to be a lil less intimidating... I don't know how and I'm still learning..

hi shiloh. not at all. instead of scary, they are attractive. what i like most is a girl being both smart and funny. physical appearance will be just a bonus. mental beauty exercises some degree of influence on human body. a girl who is physically unattractive but mentally developed or has loving nature will look beautiful to others. you know that to a child, the most beautiful woman in the world is his/her mother.

Smart women only scare away stupid men. If a man is not man enough to not be intimidated by a smart woman, the smart woman is much better off without him. In my generation women were encouraged to never let a man know she was smarter, or more proficient in anything than a man because it would make him feel bad and men didn't like that. I had a hard time buying that theory. Needless to say I wasn't very popular. Now days it's acceptable to be a woman and be smart, well educated, articulate and able to hold you own in the world on any given level with a man, but many men still feel threatened. It sounds like you know some men who gravitate to you because you're smart, but they don't have the same interests as you do. Keep looking. Have fun while you're at it. The right one will come along.
