<p>Just because you’re well-liked doesn’t mean you have friends. >_<</p>
<p>And you should probably not talk about stalking CCers within the confines of CC.</p>
<p>Define smart. If you mean that I wouldn’t date someone who’s GPA/SAT is lower than mine then you’re wrong.</p>
<p>PS. I’m man :)</p>
<p>lol @ dating</p>
<p>I mean I’d hook up with a girl regardless of her intelligence. For a girlfriend she would at least have to be funny if she wasn’t semi intelligent. I’m not too picky, they just have to be hot.</p>
<p>ill date people who are intelligent (not amazing sat scores and gpa, but someone who works hard… i find that really attractive lol) they have to be cute and FUNNY. having a sense of humor is the most important quality for me!</p>
<p>yes, i think it’s stupid not to. besides being attractive lol, if the person has a great personality and we get along well then I would most def. date the person.</p>
<p>…and then you wonder why people continue to cyber.</p>
<p>i cant handle stupid people, so id say not.
lol i sound like such an as*hole</p>
<p>I agree that there are different types of intelligence (or stupidity for that matter)</p>
<p>the last two guys i’ve dated have each been not very smart but in very different ways…
the first was a pothead who did quite well in school but could simply not hold an intelligent conversation. we got along well until i got so frustrated with him and how he didn’t even want to go to college that it just became too much.
the second one who i am still with is like the complete opposite of me academically speaking… he has a 2.3 gpa and mine is 4.4, he got a 1200 (yes out of 2400) and i got 2210… so yes he would be considered stupid by almost anyone’s standards but you wouldn’t know it just by talking to him. he can hold a conversation quite well and actually has high ambitions in terms of college.</p>
<p>so i think it depends on the person (but then again i’m not thattt smart either)</p>
<p>I’m a guy and I definitely would, although not by much. I mean, I wouldn’t be into bimbos or anything like that.</p>
<p>Guy.</p>
<p>I like the dumb girls; dating people that are smarter than me makes me feel like I’m dumb as rocks.</p>
<p>I found out through a weird conversation about standardized testing that my boyfriend and I have almost the same IQ.</p>
<p>Raw intelligence is something we both have, but his parents didn’t stress over him going to a good school like mine are. It’s a source of stress.</p>
<p>I have to say, I’ve fallen for pretty unattractive guys in the past because they could debate well, were witty, or read/watched the same kinds of books/movies I did, and understood them on the level I did.</p>
<p>To accurately answer this question we must define as “smart”. People can be smart in different ways and at different things, but for purposes of this discussion I just will evaluate “smart” as general IQ. For context, I will offer that I believe I am generally pretty bright.</p>
<p>Personally, I would. I don’t think I can blame a boy for not being as quick to understand concepts as myself, when he is trying his best. I greatly value effort, motivation, and ambition, it is infinitely more important to me. </p>
<p>However, intelligence is extremely attractive.</p>
<p>Girl
I think its better to date someone who is in your ‘range of smartness’ 
if one is much smarter than the other… things will not work out very well at all</p>
<p>i could never date someone way dumber than me
my best friend however ( a guy) is smarter than me (not wayyy smarter but a bit smarter) and i almost cant stand it
i must admit… i do get jealous at times.</p>
<p>Yeah I would. It would be difficult because I’m a ■■■■■■ bag but yeah…</p>
<p>Ummm, ***? If the person can carry on an interesting conversation with you, what difference does it make? And “smart” in what sense?</p>
<p>Smart is soooo varible. My best friend has like a 4.5 to my 3.45, but I scored almost 100 pts higher than her on the SATs.</p>
<p>Intelligence is key. I don’t like dumb people. They annoy me.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Replace “dumb” with “white”, “black”, “Asian”, “gay”, “female” or any other social adjective and you would clearly be racist/homophobic/misogynistic. People don’t choose to be dumb; they’re born with the IQ/intelligences that they have. Since you’re talking about dumb/smart, which is innate, and not slacking/hard-working, which can be changed, please make less prejudiced remarks.</p>
<p>With that being said, I would not date someone who was dramatically dumber or smarter than me, simply because we wouldn’t relate and I wouldn’t be happy, which would destroy the purpose of having a relationship in the first place.</p>
<p>^ DEBAT3R MODE ACTIVAT3</p>
<p>I prefer my date to be somebody smarter than me because then I can rely on this person.</p>
