Is it wrong to wanna date a woman who's beautiful, but not very smart?

[Anonymous]

I like a woman who's beautiful, although she's not very smart, I still wanna date her though.

Let me quote the great Judge Judy here. “Beauty fade but dumb is forever.” In a relationship you may find that after some time you need more than just beauty to maintain the relationship. Being smart and having the ability to maintain a conversation about things is essential in a relationship. It’s part of what they call the “seven year itch”.

That's okay, I'm fine with her not being able to maintain a conversation.

Why in the world would that be wrong? Who cares if she isn't very smart? If you like her and she's good to you, go for it.

[Asker]

She's good to me and very sweet, has a good heart. I'm not particularly looking for someone to have deep, intellectual conversations with, she's just fun.

No. On the contrary, it sounds like a match made in heaven. Although I don't know about your looks!

[Asker]

How did you know I'm dumb?

[TommyMountainFigure]

I dunno. Lucky guess!

[Asker]

I'm not sure about my looks either, but she thinks I'm cute, so there's that.

[TommyMountainFigure]

She thinks you're cute and you clearly like her. I see NOTHING wrong in that!

[Asker]

True, a bunch of women got on my case for wanting to date her even though she's not very smart, I tried assuring them I wouldn't take advantage of her. I don't wanna take advantage of her, I just wanna be with her and be there for her.

[TommyMountainFigure]

If that's all true, then the woman you want to date isn't lacking any smartness, it's the women who are getting on your case that are!

[Asker]

Ah, I see what you mean. I was also concerned I might be some sort of pig for not caring whether a woman is intelligent or not, that was the reason they got on my case.

[TommyMountainFigure]

When you first asked the question I wanted to test you, first about how seriously you take yourself and then whether or not you care about her.
It's clear from what you say that you DO care about her, therefore, as far as those women are concerned? They can go do one!

[Asker]

I get ya, I wasn't offended, I don't consider myself a genius, I know just enough to get by and that's it. You really don't think it's wrong to date a woman who's not very smart as long as I care about her?

[TommyMountainFigure]

Let me answer that with a hypothetical question.
If you had a sister who you classed as 'not very smart' (to use your words,) Who would you rather her go out on a date with. Someone who cared about how smart she was, but didn't really care about HER, or someone who was concerned about her welfare, but didn't care how smart she was?

[Asker]

The latter.
