“Girls have an unfair advantage over men: if they can’t get what they want by being smart, they can get it by being dumb.”- Yul Brynner

Are you too smart for your own good? It has never been scientifically proven that men prefer beauty over brains. What we do know is that even the smartest women do some dumb things when it comes to love.
Being intelligent is definitely a quality to be proud of but it’s only useful in dating when applied correctly.

In dating it’s more important that you’re friendly, kind, funny, attentive and genuine than a Rhodes scholar.

Being intelligent when it comes to men isn’t the about your comprehensive knowledge of nuclear physics or finance; it’s about a complete understanding of one subject, him.
If you’re smart about men, you’ll realize that there are better ways to display your intelligence than what I see some doing in the dating world today.

If you’re an intelligent woman and you have the documents to prove it, good for you but being smart about men isn’t the same as being book smart.


1.Thinking you shouldn’t be beautiful.
The stigma in the world today is that beauty and brains don’t go together. Just because a lot of so-called beautiful women act dumb in pop culture doesn’t mean being smart means being ugly. Caring about what you look like isn’t the ultimate betrayal of feminism or an insult to female intelligence.
Feeling beautiful is an essential part of being a woman.
Don’t make the mistake of making your looks trivial or secondary. Be the complete package.

Thinking you have to prove your point
A big mistake so-called “intelligent” women make is constantly feeling the need to prove their point. Successful flirting is largely based on how you make a man feel.
If you’re hammering your point home and drilling it into your date that you’re right and he’s wrong instead of seeming smart you’ll seem mean.
If your date makes a statement that you disagree with or you know for a fact isn’t true don’t make it a big deal. You’re smart enough to know that you don’t need to see him again if he isn’t a fit. When you are asked to share your opinion the abridged
version, not the dissertation you wrote on the subject, keep in mind being right doesn’t make you smarter. You may come across as smart but you won’t come across as fun.
Don’t make the mistake of getting into heated debates or having to be right with a man you don’t know that well. He probably isn’t worth the energy and you’ll come across like the bully.

Thinking that smarter means better.
If you want to make a woman who is a six look like an eleven talk about her in front of a man.
Putting another women down who seems less intelligent than you really only makes you look like the dumb one. It’s negative, it’s un-ladylike, it’s pretentious and it’s judgmental.
It doesn’t matter if you come across a woman who doesn’t have two brain cells to rub together, talking about it makes you seem intimidated by her.
Praise other women. Find something good to say even when the man is bating you to say something catty. Don’t play, that game.
Don’t make the mistake of judging other women based on what you think you know. –
You’re too smart for that.

Nice one

Love is a brainless affair, at least most times. It's hard to fall in love and still retain the use of one's brains. Love goes with emotions and since emotions are ever unstable, it makes a mess of one's sanity and intelligence.

This also applies to men too. People use their intelligence the wrong way in relationships. They are too judgemental. Always wanting to show they know it all. That is a serious relationship killer.

Romance section can be really boring. So many useless topic. Mtchew @Op don't take it personal.

Wrong! Love does not make your senses evaporate that is infatuation talking. Emotions are only one aspect of love, if you make your love all about emotions then you are no longer operating love but now in infatuation.
