As Ernest Hemingway says, "An intelligent man is sometimes forced to be drunk to spend
time with his fools."
To quote myself, Adam LoDolce says, "An intelligent woman is sometimes forced to be drunk to have
sex with fools."
If you're smart, dating might even be harder for you than for others.
Here's five reasons why.
Some people out there say that life is easier when you're smart, but I disagree.
I help a ton of really smart women find love.
Let me tell you, sometimes the smarter you are, the harder it is.
Here are those five reasons why.
Number one is you tend to over analyze everything.
Every problem you've ever had in your life, you'll be able to just think through, except
for dating.
If 2X equals 6 then X equals three.
When it comes to love, it's definitely not that cut and dry.
Sex times two plus texting times four times eight weeks equals love?
It's not a formula.
If you find that you are constantly over analyzing every single thing in dating, in relationships,
and you know what?
It might be time to just learn how to go with the flow just a little bit more.
Love is not a formula to be followed.
Emotions certainly cannot be filled out in an algorithm.
Number two is everyone expects you to have the perfect partner.
If you're an overachiever in every area of your life, you can work through anything and
make it happen, except for finding a suitable partner.
You might work hard to be a doctor or a lawyer, successful business woman, but you know what?
That doesn't necessarily mean that you're going to have success in your love life.
Have patience and understand that you can be happy now being single and anyone who puts
pressure on you to find love is, well, they're dumb.
They don't understand that you'd rather be single and happy than married and miserable.
Number three is the harsh truth that people you meet are usually less intelligent than
you are.
Let's say you're in the top 30th percentile of IQ.
A lot of men, well, they will really annoy you, not understand you, or worst of, get
intimidated by you.
Finding love and happiness is important and maybe you won't end up with someone as smart
as you, but you'll find someone who's just really compatible with you.
Maybe they are the fun to your serious.
Maybe they are the relaxed to your stress.
Maybe they are the simplicity to your complexity.
Finding love doesn't mean finding another you.
It means finding someone who completes you.
Number four is you might just have less experience with love.
Smart people tended to spend more time on their achievements than on relationships when
they were younger.
Let's get real here.
It's pretty rare to be the valedictorian who's also the prom queen.
Now, when you were younger, you might have spent all of your time going to college, going
to grad school, getting your first job, finding a really high paying career, while other people
may have spent time really working on their social skills and building relationships with
people.
Now is the time to really make this a priority in your life and put as much energy into learning
your social skills, learning how to flirt, learning how to date and getting that experience
as you would in other areas of your life.
Number five is you feel entitled to the perfect love story.
Yes, you may have the perfect job, but you might not find the perfect relationship.
Why, because perfection doesn't exist in relationships.
You will find a relationship that is great, that is healthy, that's going to make you
so happy in life but, no relationship is perfect.
No man is perfect.
Although you might be a perfectionist in other areas of your life, it's really time to open
up and be able to explore other opportunities with people.
Don't be so quick judge when you meet people for the first time.
Realize that the men that you meet may not be as smart as you but they may have other
attributes that are really, really important and great.
Loosen up your criteria a little bit and explore other opportunities.
Explore other people.
You know what?
Don't forget to have a little bit of fun.
