Master of Arts in Counseling

MS in psych seemed waaaay too analytical and brain centered. I'm more of a heart and feeling centered person.

I have several friends with higher level jobs and degrees. I second this motion. Sometimes guys cant get over their egos enough and cant be upstaged by their girl. She can have tons of money, but if shes smarter sometimes it turns into a competition where he feels inadequite. Retarded if you ask me, but hey. Im sure I do retarded stuff as well. I just hope Im proven wrong when I get my MS.

The wonderful thing is that there isn't some sort of linear "smart meter". Both parties involved may be equally intelligent, but knowledgeable and experienced in widely varying fields. If I were to put intellegence/general knowledge-base on a graph, it'd probably look something more along the lines of this (sorry couldn't find the official name for this type of graph):

I completely agree. My ex loves history and knows a ton about that and politics, barf. I would school him at science, computers, and intermingling with others though. Its kinda hot when someone knows different topics than you. There are SO many different types of smart, regardless of whether or not one has a degree in it or not.

I have two male cats.

Aeneus -- gorgeous Turkish van, 25 lbs of muscle and fur, rejected show cat, acts rather regally, very well behaved, cuddly, and does not give a shit about helping me study -- or toys for that matter

Imp -- dumb-ass, generic tortoiseshell, 28 lbs of lard, retarded, in your face or climbing you constantly, reserves sneezes for optimal spray in face or on feet, tries to play but is tired after 20 seconds, suffocates you while you sleep, helps me study by obscuring entire textbooks with his voluminous belly folds

When I say show cat. I mean literally. He was from a breeder who was raising them to compete in cat shows. As he got out of kittenhood he started to develop some light orange spots on his sides instead of only on his face and tail, so he was considered inferior for his breed, neutered, and put up for adoption. Imp was from a shelter, though.

Why would you want that? Extra seasons of sub-par episodes do nothing to reduce the quality of the first ones, and there is a good chance the shows will be well received.

It's possible to enjoy a show and quit it after a few seasons. I stopped watching lost after season 2, but it doesn't bother me that they kept it going.

Your regex doesn't match the pattern. You don't account for the order. So this pattern would pass your regex:

[–]LastPaleLight 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Smart means nothing if the person is bitchy, pretentious, and/or a stick in the mud. Alternatively, if someone is so unintelligent that they can't carry on conversations relating to fairly basic principles and circumstances, then that's equally a deal breaker.

Additionally, different individuals identify "smart" in a number of ways. For example, there are plenty of book-smart people with a lot of knowledge, but are incredibly slow when it comes to something like humor or general conversation. I've known people who are now doctors and laywers that couldn't understand symbolism, satire, or some jokes.

The -type- of smart I'm typically looking for involves a quick wit and creative problem solving.

While I can certainly say looks aren't everything to me, there is eventually a point where, regardless of an amazing personality, unattractiveness can be a deal breaker, as can (lack of) personal hygene. Your typical, average looking girl with a whip for a wit is definitely a winner in my book, though.

[–]StChas77 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Your second paragraph really struck me.

My wife and I are generally seen to be smart people (and I think she's one of the most beautiful women alive to boot), but she's the one with the quick wit and awesome analytical skills. I'm better at reading people and philosophizing.

I could gush about her all day, but I don't want to make anyone here jealous.

[–]UnoriginalGuy 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think what bugs women is guys go for attractive girls, smart or dumb.

While they can handle seeing a guy they like going off with someone who is an "equal," their head explodes when he goes for a moron (who they consider "below" them).

Human nature means that we give negative things far more attention than positive things, which in and of its self is the reason the whole "attractive guy with dumb girl" stereotype is born and prospers.

It is self-fulfilling. If it doesn't fit the stereotype it isn't related to the stereotype, and if it does then it is supporting evidence.

men go for attractive girls, yet so many women got downvoted to hell for ranking looks as higher than other attributes (Except money and penis size) in the "what are you looking for in a partner" thread.

[–]UnoriginalGuy 4 points5 points ago

That's a fair point. There is a double standard here, and stereotypes on both sides.

Based on my limited experience both genders seem to want more or less the same things:

  • Roughly equal intelligence
  • Roughly equal looks
  • Roughly equal wealth/social standing

Now, we can all think of examples where this isn't the case, but I'm talking about the majority of people in long term relationships. For example, if you think about couples you know, and you have to rate them on all of the above out of a 1-10 scale, I bet all would be within 1 to 3 points of each other.

I think there is, in most relationships, a reacher and a settler, but that doesn't change the above.

I agree. However, I wish I weren't criticized for wanting someone who is equal in attractiveness and success as I am. I do not expect to be taken care of by my men financially but I still get treated like a gold digging slut if I mention income or physical fitness as important.

Which is really hypocritical, because if a girl is rich and has a great body, guys are up her ass like bees on a beehive. Hmm... bees, asses. Now, there's an idea. You hold 'em down, Ill get the bees.

Some men are sensitive about such topics. And when they hear that women care (even if obviously they already knew that) it sets off all of their lame insecurities.

Again, double standard. Women's attractiveness is such a popular discussion topic in society that we almost forget that a lot of women use it as a source of self worth.

I'd say men treat their success in the same way. It just isn't discussed to death 24/7.

I would personally also add "values" to the list as well (in the sense of outlook of life, personality/thinking, religion?, etc.)

[–]grilledbaby 2 points3 points ago

Well put. However, attractiveness seems to be 90% of what they go for. This gets annoying though, because when we do it, they are all upset about it, dont understand, etc... Albeit, females do it less than males, because its in our biology to seek other things. But when we do do it, youd think the main ones to understand would be those who do the same. Annoyingly hypocritical.

[–]UnoriginalGuy 0 points1 point ago

I think the 90% figure is fair, but if you look at who guys marry (rather than who they want to sleep with) then I'd say that guys care far more about other less easy to equate traits.

I will say that a girl's personality can really harm or help who attracted I am to her. Just as I'm sure it is for women. Only difference is I will likely be attracted to her even if her personality gives her "negative points."

I'm a lot more likely to go out with a girl if she's intelligent. Also if I ask a girl what her favorite book is and she says "oh, I don't really read" it's a huge turn off.

[–]CunningLanguageUser 0 points1 point ago

I can't abide by this statement.

"Height has nothing to do with it."

Reasonable, and possible to believe...

But you might think twice about going out with a 4'7" girl, especially if you're 7 foot. Desirability is undoubtedly relative to expectations and self-perception.

Smart people get neurotic when they're lonely and it causes them to behave in awkward ways, which is unattractive.

I have simply been alone for the past year because I'm sick of looking for a girl who's got what I want. I owe it to my upbringing that all I would ever want is a beautiful young lady with smarts and a mischievous sense of humor who doesn't complain about every second thing in life.

Of course, when I finally meet them, I'm the one who's awkward about it because I'm like some kind of treasure hunter who's just uncovered a new Jackson Pollack piece.

Let's take the 3 grand characteristics a guy is looking for.

  • beauty
  • intelligence
  • fun/pleasant personality

Each girl has only two of them.

  1. If a girl is really good looking and has a fun personality, she's fucking dumb.
  2. If a girl is really good looking and intelligent, she's a total bitch.
  3. If a girl is intelligent and has a fun personality, she's the ugly girl you wanna be friend with.

I dont think he meant it rude, but it may be somewhat valid. Honestly if you think about it, its the same with guys, IMHO. Ive encountered the exact same issues trying to find a guy with all 3 things (add in functional, self sufficient, and NON-psycho though). Its just not out there. =/
