as a sapiosexual I have dated many many men but I have never had any feelings for them. The only person I had a crush on was a psychopath who did a rubicw cube in front of me. But obviously I can't date a psychopath. As any other sapiosexual women found it hard to find love.
I assume they run in to the same issue I run in to, when its all about looks and sex all you have to do is approach someone that you think is pretty and then be normal enough to get along. When you need intelligence from a partner, have certain things you want from a relationship such as the ability to have deep conversations and especially if you require traits the majority of singles do not share then you can't just pick someone out anymore.
You have to be lucky and somehow know their personality, and then if your extra unlucky and your in hobbies or a job that lack the opposite sex it becomes near impossible to find people locally.
So I don't know if this applies to women as much as it applies to men who seek a woman with depth that aligns with their interests / hobbies, but I can imagine there being a lot of overlap.

My last girlfriend was sapiosexual. It never posed any problems, of course I happened to meet her specific criteria for clever yet clueless.
I do think it changed how you prefer to meet people. Rather than sweaty bodies on a dancefloor our first meetings were spent in heated conversation. And so that would be my suggestion to you: Choose a forum in which people can show their intelligence, whichever form of it attracts you, rather than conventional dating.
I am sure there are some rubics cube tournaments you could attend. They can't all be psychopaths! Maybe half.
I'm finding it hard to date because most guys have just "come out" relationships and just want to have fun!
This phase has been going on now for the longest time...
So I continue to be single, because they're not willing to even see if I'm decent enough to even be friends with.
I really think people that want that should consider paying for it.
But there's the mentality that sex is free, and if they're serving the world should jump on it.
For the most part il say I am the same even that I am a bi so do roll to both sides
I will not say I find it too hard to find pepole I get attracted to as there many brilent minds out there

No, they don't, especially if they are not inflexible about age, race, height, etc.,
yes if they keep lying to themselves about all these irrelevant sexualities that have no evolutionary advantage except sound good on paper
you may be attracted to "smart" guys as you tell yourself but they still need to be hot first or at least you find them physically attractive
I guess that depends on how smart you need them to be. The IQ bell curve will give you the odds if u divide by 2 and multiply by the population in your preferred age band. At 160 plus its about 0.0032%. If you are interested in men only that is 0.0016% of the male population. There are 10.97 million males in their 20's with an IQ above 160 as at 2021.
So there are. 175 guys for you in the entire US of A.Lots of people find intelligence attractive. You need to look in places where intelligent people tend to hang out: hint, NOT Mensa meetings.
Try to find online groups on interesting topics. I'm a space nerd, so I look for space / astronomy / rocketry groups. Had lots of fun talking to people at the last rocket launch I went to.I´d say yes because guys are often bad at school and they often don´t find an interest in collecting knowledge. So guys tend to take jobs that don´t involve learning facts or things that can´t be used in every day life.
Guys develop different interests in gaming, sports or social media but nothing that´s intellectual challening. To be honest I think it could get even worse in the future if women outnumber in the academia.Does that mean you are attracted to smart guys? I’m
Assuming that based on the guy solving the rubix cube and the root word sapio - coming from the word Sapienta which in Latin means wisdom.
If so you will find it more difficult as society is intentionally dumbed down and superficiality floods society.Sapiosexual is just a shorthand for an asexual person who wants intelligent interactions.
Women who are not physically attracted to men are going to have an extremely hard time finding a man to be with, as almost all men want to feel physically attractive to their woman, and want to have sex, makeout, etc. (this includes most academic and creative geniuses).
It's not impossible, but it's very unlikely.I'm a sapiosexual man and I also find it hard to find love. Because so many women have gotten into past relationships with boyfriends who have taken advantage of them. And that is a sign of mental weakness in the girl that she would fall for that. So she's automatically disqualified.
All this terms for sexualitet is dumb. You aren't sapiosexual you are just attracted to intelligent men. Just like the other 99% of straight women. It would be more different if you were attracted to low IQ people
It's my experience that 99% of the women who say they're sapiosexual are NEVER as smart as they think they are and the big brain men that they lust after can notice it very quickly.
I've had it happen to me more than once already. Women who are into "smart men" and the second you start to talk to them you realize these "sapiosexual" wome are huge pseudointellectuals.Calling themselves "sapiosexuals" is a great way for women of mediocre intelligence, inflated self-esteem, and non-existant social skills to tell the world how smart they are.
Don't put sapiosexual on your online dating profile. I've got MENSA level IQ and sapiosexuals aren't interesting to us
There's heterosexuality, homosexuality (that is, deviants), and asexuality, and that's it. I really do wish people would stop making up words for things that aren't actually real.
You are joking, right? Most men find dating women to be like dating a third grader wearing makeup.
US? Move to the west coast, what there is a surplus of single professional men.
If you find yourself dating dudes because you think they're intelligent and if you ALSO find yourself never having feelings for them, then maybe you're NOT so sapiosexual after all.
Does being a "sapio", whatever that implies, mean you also date any sort of being, be it, male, female, whatever the fuck you i fucking dentify as
Your a person that claims to only be attracted to intelligent men but you was attracted to a psychopath. Yes he was really intelligent and I can see you are too!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Quit trying to put a label on yourself and quit overthinking it and try to find someone who makes you happy and who loves you for you. trying to find someone who you want to be perfect just find someone who doesn't judge you and who is mature
I don't know, but I can solve a 13x13 rubik's cube in front of you if you'd like.
