I have just few words to say...

Whoever I end up marrying must be intelligent...i repeat MUST! I am not saying she shouldn't be beautiful...

What I am saying is,

SHE MUST BE PRESENTABLE AND INTELLIGENT...(Education-wise, and common sense)
That is to say, I want a lady with all her quality but intelligence should be one of it.

Who want dull children?
Certainly no me!

You basically assume people want to change.
That's wrong. Why?? Because change is uncomfortable.

She might thirst for knowledge as you say, but the thirst will be for basically useless knowledge like which Nollywood movie just got released, what's going on in Zeeworld today, and other similar bullshit.
Or she might even have no thirst for knowledge whatsoever, other than watching movies and looking at shoes and bags.
She might not be willing to change.

Marrying someone on the assumption, or hope, that she'll change is a recipe for disaster.

That is what the OP is talking about.

I know because I've been in the exact same situation before, and have dated the exact same type of girl before, and it wasn't funny if you're an intellectually inclined person.
And the reality of the situation??- she wasn't willing to change.

Outcome??- Of course I ended the relationship.

Are you sure we didn't date the same girl sef? Because I'm sure she is still not married now despite the so called beauty.

Follow what your mind tells you, to me there is no problem, you can always build on that to make her a better woman of your choice, that's if she's willing to learn, it seems you are getting it wrong, don't marry base on beauty, because it will fade, marry base on her character and God fearing, it will surprise you to know that some are beautiful but have bad character.

I now understand why you couldnt change your ex.

The girl u are either dating or married to now, is she very intelligent?

If intelligence holds an attraction for you, then you must find a girl who is mentally stimulating for you to have a long lasting relationship. Beauty holds an attraction for all men but for most educated men, an intelligent girl provides the attraction that mentally stimulate men without which long lasting relationship may be in jeopardy. Few words is enough for the wise.

What do you understand to be intelligence?

In other words, what will make you to know or say someone is intelligent?
Two question at a time..huh?

How do you know someone is intelligent It is simple... Engage them,i say.. engage them in conversation raging from different topic. Her quick and calculated response.. her choice of words.. what she say and type would tell you.



What is intelligence? Someone who has that ability to learn and understand stuffs fast and accurately. He or she understands and knows thing especially when they are taught.

Does this answer your questions??

Nice try.

but i guess i must let you know that when it comes to the issue of judging if someone is intelligent or not, you also have to consider what the persons knows or is supposed to know.

for instance, you might be an expert in numismatics but if i were to have a discussion with you now ranging from meteorology down to equestrianism, something tells me you won't even have anything to contribute in the discussion.

now to an onlooker watching us having the discussion, you might seem so dull but that doesn't mean you are a dullard because you are still an expert in your numismatic field.

i don't know if you get what i am trying to say.

now, to your second point, learning is actually a gradual process.

some people learn fast; some people don't.

if it so happens that i don't learn fast even though i will eventually learn the stuff, are you trying to tell me that i am not intelligent? wink

Lol, most likely not.
I think there's quite a good number of that type of girl floating around.
The experiences of the OP, yours and mine attest to that.

Give her books to read. Make sure she reads at least two books in a month.

You'll see changes.

Relationships are not just about sex and saying I love you. You should be able to bring positive changes to your partner.

Yes, the girl I'm seeing now is much more intelligent, and I'm much happier.

she is studying a "useless" course in school, Local Govt Studies.
She lacks strategy when she addresses life matter.
If you discuss with her for 10 minutes youll notice her flaws.

she is very fine o and she has manners. i dont want to regret marrying her because of looks o.

can marring her be meaningful considering her intellectual laziness?


Just to correct an impression: no course is useless. There are people who studied courses like botany, library studies and philosophy who are managing directors while their mates who studied mechanical engineering are still trying to find their level in life

Yeah, the ones you know, I agree... and...
It is not strange at all.

But I tell you this most solemnly, there are still many presentable ones and even beautiful ones out there that you still have not come across YET...

When you do,

Moronic girls like this are the reason why someone shouldn't marry people of low intelligence. Imagine such a senseless comment and even after many corrections she'll still pushing along such filth. Law of attraction ?? who's law ? can you prove it ? slowpoke
kimbraa:
You can't be intellectually sound and be dating a girl that isn't. Permit me to say, you attract your likes. It's a rule of thumb.

Modified.
The laws of attraction says "Likes attract" unlike your physics law that states that "Opposite attract". I wasn't the one that stipulated that law so get a grip of yourself while giving me stupid mention just to come off intelligent. Google is of help if you need an elaborate explanation.

Op, as the person above me stated, get her books to read, it could work you know! As for me ooo, I can't and will never marry an ugly girl simply because she's intelligent. A dull pretty lady can be worked upon, but an ugly intelligent lady? Well..... Take her to heaven and bring her back, if she ain't pretty she ain't pretty. I just hate ugly girls. Op pity your children, give them a pretty mum they can be able to flaunt. Am not saying she should be miss Nigeria, am saying let her be presentable, let her be someone you can confidently introduce to someone.
But wetin I sabi sef

An ugly girl can be worked on too. With all the make-up artist in Nigeria, even a lion mark can be wiped off overnight!
