Do smart guys only go for smarter girls?

As a former high school "nerd" myself, I suspect he would probably be absolutely estatic to find out you are interested in him. He is probably afraid to approach you because of a lack of self-confidence.\n\nRemember it is not a competition who is smarter.  The question is whether the two of you can relate to each other on some deeper level as friends and partners.  Try to avoid telling him how smart he is all the time.  He is probably sick and tired of having that be the defining characteristic of his identity.  Try to find other positive characteristics as well.  And definitely don't put yourself down as not smart enough!  I am sure there are areas other than book smarts where you are probably wiser and more mature than he is (emotional intelligence).  In the context of a relationship, I suspect he probably has more to learn from you than vice-versa.\n\nGood luck.

Most guys tend to think in terms of logic and act on instinct. Men are problem solvers by nature.

It depends on the guy, different guys are attracted to different people.  Some guys are attracted to intelligence, it seems one-sided to accuse guys of being superficial and imply that they are at fault as being the only sex that does it.  But, some people just are superficial, but you should know for sure that they are, rather than just make the assumption that they are.

Men love smart women.\n\nWhat guy (who has at least half of a brain) wants a dumb girl to raise his kids?????????????????\n\nAnd, it sure would make for a nicer life if the woman was smart enough to bring home a decent amount of money to help the family have a nice life.\n\nAs a dad, I KNOW that my hope is that my kids --- both boys AND GIRLS --- are smart.\n\nOh, if a guy gets intimidated, he's not going to get intimidated by a smart girl (although she MIGHT be boring).  A guy is far more likely to get intimidated by a totally gorgeous girl.

Right on girl! Smart decision! He's a jerk. Smart girls doesn't need jerks who can't move on from the past.

most of my friends are very intelligent. that being said they are usually dumb when a girl gives hints that they like him or are interested in him. (this includes myself... the dumb part anyway).\n\nas always, here is a little story:\na couple of friends and i (5 total) had gone to the local grocery store to get some snacks. now we bought about $20 worth of snacks. when we went to the cash register it filled 4 plastic bags the heaviest ones being the 6-packs of soda. this petite and gorgeous girl was bagging our snacks while my friend lee and i discussed methods of losing weight and gaining muscle mass. \n\nthe entire time we were there the bag girl (her name tag said lisa) kept glancing at my friend. when we all reached over to take a bag and go back to the car, lisa stopped lee before he could pick up the bag with the 6-pack of soda in it and she asked him, "sir, would you like me to help you take this to the car?" lee responded with a puzzled look and responded,"no,thats okay. it's not that heavy.  i can carry it." \n\nhe reached for the bag again and she interrupted him again with a, "sir, are you sure you would not like me to help take this to the car for you? my name is lisa and i'd like to help you take this to the car and maybe..." at this point my other friends and i simply grinned and started moving away, thinking, "cool, lee is gonna get a gal." to our disbelief, we heard him interrupt her and repeat, "no, thats okay. like i said its not that heavy, so i can carry it. thanks for asking though. bye." \n\nmy friend walked out of the supermarket without looking back. lisa never took her eyes off him. the moment we were out of site of lisa, we all kicked him and told him what a fool he was for letting such an oportunity slip. his response was, "she was interested in me? how do you know?" \n\nthis is just one of the many times i've witnessed guys just not getting it. i have a done similar things as well, and its not until much later, (or right after if my friends are there and decide to kick me for not getting it) that i realized, "whoa, maybe she was interested in me."\n\nthat's why i say, the only surefire way to let a guy know that she likes him would be to walk up to him, tell him she likes him, then to give him a passionate kiss.\n\nthe kiss is to make sure that he didn't mishear or misunderstand because trust me, sometimes just telling the guy you like him just isn't enough to make him understand.

cute. he doesnt have to be a genius for me to like him, maybe he's not as good at math as me, but i could care less if he can't divide fractions or find the square root of a number, it's what's in the heart that counts. i mean im not saying i'd go out with someone who was a complete air head and couldn't even read and was mental and stuff. but smarts aren't everything, there's still personality ,looks, and love. if we both loved each other enough, i would'nt care if he was in all "advanced" classes in school(like me). standard is fine with me. but uh..  basic, no way.

Not really, I've had good conversations(not argument) with smart girls.  I'm a pretty quiet guy and i'd have to say most smart girls keeps me talking.  \nI am intimidated by girls who knows more about sports than I do.

Hell no...guys are stupid, they won't know what you want unless you tell them or show them...besides, nowadays it's totally commonplace for girls to make the first move!!

i don't. we think differently. if you are in a relationship it usually doesn't matter if the man is right because a smart man will keep his mouth shut to a woman even if he knows he is right. that is wisdom. i don't know if women can be wise. i didn't mean to offend you and i am not a doctor. i just thought it was funny. good night and my apologies.

on the contrary, i think guys prefer girls with brains to go with their looks.. only inferior guys will feel intimidated by girls with strong personalies and brains and balls

Perhaps you have a girlfriend who is not only good looking but also smart.

Goodness no.  I think that sometimes men DON'T WANT women to be as smart as they are - but I'm not going to act stupid for anybody.  I WILL acknowledge when my man does or says something smart - but I won't pretend to be less intelligent than I am.  That would be too hard.

Heck, yeah.  Asian men are usually very attractive and very smart.

no...in the end the nice guys will find the best girls because the best girls know who the nice guys are and they realize that looks dont last but being nice and respectful will last forever!
