Somehow I really can’t believe all those responses 😊 , contrary to believes in popular media , where they show nerds , intelligent men are somewhat problematic
Girls, do you actually ever like an academically intelligent guy?

I'm one of the top students in my class and guys only knock me for my notes.
And I never thought about academically intelligent guys that way, what the hell. Yeah I do ask from help from them but we all can ask for help from one another, I don't see why anyone would think you have to date them to get help from them. What the heck. And being academically intelligent ready doesn't guarantee a lot of money. It does guarantee occupations that are prestigious and well-respected, but it doesn't guarantee that the job will make a lot of money.
But if I ever got along with a guy like that, great! I'd not complain. Especially if he's in the same like of subjects as mine we would have better understanding. That's a plus. But not a necessity, I could be happy with the boy who always failed.

It's ok , I was not generalising. But you can hear those lines in our society. See sometimes let's say some guy likes a girl , she doesn't want to date that guy but always ask help from him for everything cause she knows that he have a crush on her. Yes you are not entitled to date someone but giving them hopes and flirting with them for your own benefit is wrong and I have seen some people do that
The guy I’ve ever been attracted to the most was a guy I met at uni. He was super sweet, we were helping each other and he was distracting me from uni because I was too stressed about my dissertation all the time. To sum it up, educated guys seem more thoughtful to me - they have really good manners, most of them are funny, they are smart (which is super attractive)! But your personality plays a big role, it’s not about if you’re educated or not (maybe in 80% of the situations wouldn’t matter), it’s about what kind of person are you, because a woman is not going to date the nerd from uni, because he’ll eventually graduate. She’s going to date you for who you are.

So apart from smart , funny , good manners what other personalities you are taking about?
Those are the main ones that I believe come with you being educated most of the time. Most people would say intelligent people are not funny, but I think it’s safe to say that their jokes are just on whole another level! Good manners and smart are very much related. Other than these I would add caring and loving, which are going to make you unique as not all intelligent guys have those. Again, nothing is sexier than a guy with a brain.
Well intelligent guy can have arrogance too. I had some of it before , all the knowledge and praise sometimes get to your head. But I always tried to fight it. I am totally cool and clam now. And yes although I make normal jokes also sometimes not every can get it , like science jokes. They may not heard about that thing before. It's ok. I can explain later. It seems you really like educated guys. So what happened to your guy? Are you still together?
They certainly can be arrogant, but they eventually snap out of it whey grow up. I love science jokes 😊😊 and understanding them makes me feel smart too lool. I’ve never dated my colleague, we stayed friends after we graduated, but who knows what tomorrow holds, right.
I am from physics so we have to learn computer too , c , c++!, Fortran , html, python , Mathematica , MATLAB , and I was studying quantum computing before so I guess those qbits
Yeah Wolfram is one of the best. Quantum science is very interesting, in my course they only covered the basics though. It’s as hard as it’s interesting, so good luck with that.
Well for starters you can see Quantum Computation and Quantum Information Textbook by Isaac Chuang and Michael Nielsen if you are interested. It’s easy to grasp at first 😊. by the way talking here is boring if you are interested you can give me your social media 😊
Academical intelligence is nice, but in my small experience, guys who are academically intelligent tend to undermine their partner's intelligence and lack common sense.
As of an example, my ex was academically very bright, 3 school years ahead of me, so it got to his head. My parents loved him and always compared my achievements to his. Yet, guess who he turned to when he had to make major decisions? You guessed right: me. I was the one making the big decisions for him through common sense. If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have gotten into research work.
So all in all, academic intelligence is nice, but if you lack common sense, it's all worthless.

Although I don’t have any lack of common sense but I was some arrogant before. I hate my part of that. Sometimes all the knowledge get to your head. I have a very good memory so I always think why people can’t remember all or nor they are that much intelligent or can’t have a conversation in almost anything. But I have learned that everyone is not same and even though everyone is academically gifted there talents lies in other fields also. And now a days I am more humble...
At least you noticed your faults, which is a good beginning. Also, I would like to mention that just memorising things doesn't make you intelligent. You can meet lots of otherwise dumb people who are seen as intelligent just because they can memorise stuff easily, and this comes from someone who can memorise a lot in a short time, so I'm not saying this out of jealousy.
Well I guess I was brought up in a scientific environment. My parents are doctors (Medical) . I literally grew up in hospitals (which kinda sucks 😅) . My father used to show me blood platelets , viruses , embryos from the age of 3-4 . Teenager years I used to build communication devices , dissecting frogs , repairing electronics stuffs. Just out of curiosity I almost studies a high portion of medical course from parents books apart from my general studies. But later started to like physics very much. It’s so elegant. Completed ug, ms in physics , published papers , given talk in various places , collaborated with some Nobel laureates and the work is still on. Beside physics I also write poetry , play violin and guitar or study other some subjects like biological sciences , or programming . Do you think I qualify as an intelligent guy? 😅
Damn bro, you are indeed intelligent! I'm geniunely impressed if all of this is true! But don't forget, don't get arrogant over such stuff and shove it in everyone's face because it gets annoying. And if you have common sense along with your intelligence, then you are golden.
Well actually there’s way more 😂, I can speak 5 languages and 4 machine languages. I have a gift in observational psychology. I can read people in front of me to an extreme level 😅😅. I have beaten my friends who study psychology , experienced doctors in it. My friends really get scared that they can’t tell any lie to me 😂. Apart from that I cook continental , chinease , Indian food and there’s way more. Everything is true. I am not lying or showing off. Sometimes I can’t believe everything myself or my friends. Those psychology studies were helpful to avert some suicides , I am glad for that. People get intimidated by knowing me or think that I am lying , that why I don’t say much about me , see I have even posted anonymously. But enough about me , tell something about yourself ☺️
Wow, I'm far less accomplished than you. 😅 I only speak 3 languages (C1 level) and can understand the very basics of German. I grew up in a normal household, so I couldn't really be among the intellectual elite, so to say. But I've always been a honours student and now I'm going to Univeristy (completelly funded by the Hungarian state, since I'm going there) to study molecular bionics. I've also been doing martial arts for over 3 years now and have been complimented on my strong punches by a police officer twice my size. That happened last year when I barely weighed 45kg. I'm a pretty decent cook, I like trying new things out, but sadly I don't live in an area from which I can gather the "fancy" ingredients required (I can't even find tapioca pearls in stores to make bubble tea!).
Hey listen you sounds awesome. Don’t feel bad about yourself , I know people that can do nothing still have much arrogance. See growing up with my parents was not that fun. Most academicians are pretty boring 😅, they are too much focused on one subject. I always hated all the medical talks in our home , they used to specify every vegetable and there nutritional contents 😣. Maybe I am from science but I love literature 😍. I also write sometimes. You are going great as of your age. Learned languages , martial arts , decent cook 😉 Yeah finding ingredients can be tough sometimes but it leads to some adventures too. Are you on any social site?
Usually, the most arrogant people are the most useless ones as well. At least this was my experience so far. I figured that academicians are pretty hung up on their field, but I think that it can be awesome having access to such knowledge when your brain can memorise the most. 😅 I never could understand literature, as in poems. I like reading, but only if I get to choose the book as of my liking. "... but it leads to some adventures", those adventures are usually "let's substitute X with Y" and you end up substituting the reciepe's 90%. 😂 I only use Facebook and WhatsApp.
Isn’t that makes something new food? Sometimes new recipes are actually good. Do you mind if I ask you about your Facebook ID? Talking here is really boring 😅
Yes and no at the same time, it's that weird grey area. 😂 By substituting I meant something like: instead of pizza sauce you use ketchup (ketchup has more sugar in it than pizza sauce). It would be better to talk about Facebook ID's in PM.
Not really. Their attitude and attempts at superiority drive me insane. They almost exclusively value only their own opinion and anything you say or think is wrong in their eyes, even when it's right. Being educated isn't the same as being intelligent.

Actual education tech how to be humble , people who have arrogance aren't actually intelligent. I don't interrupt unless the person Infront of me is completely wrong , if you are right but just have different values I respect that
If anything I would prefer someone who is academically smart. I find them easier to talk to, better conversations, they understand my ambitions. Overall I think a male who is smart is soooo much more attractive then someone who isn't.
Yesss...,,,, !,,,, !, since your interested are in foreign science , I guess you will enjoy it. At some point I got an interest in forensic science from that show.
Be a good forensic scientist and I will be your criminal 😂, don’t worry I will give you enough cases to think , you will run after me for years 😂, Well jokes apart , forensic science is really interesting. All those techniques , like how to tell brand of cigars by there asses , or telling about shooting angle , shooters distance , different kinds of poison , time of death. You will enjoy the course for sure. 👩🔬💣🗡🚬⚔️⚰️🔪🔬💉 A person who loves to read detective novels , forensic science is really intriguing 😊
I like them because I like a person who I can talk to besides me. Me and my guy study the same field it's cool to have his opinion on my work and I know that he is always honest with me. It's also great that I know that he will have a good job in the future but it's not main thing
Well even I study physics , I had chemistry also in ug. And those hydrocarbons and that fractional distillation system. And how can someone not be interested in petroleum , world economy completely depends on it even now , all those transport systems , middle East , Iran crisis , irak invasion , plastic , air pollution , everything is petroleum based.
Yes going to college can be helpful. Some men aren't able to go to college for various reasons or just don't want to know. They learn on their own. I have met many highly intelligent people who have never gone to college.
I do. I'm sorry but i don't like people who don't put effort in their work and not give a shit about their future. I have initiative and I'd very much like someone who has it too.
People who are "academically intelligent" seem to lord it over others and tend to lack basic common sense so no?

I guess you had a bad experience 🙁. Academic people don't lord over others , that's politicians job. And why do you think they tend to lack basic common sense. ?
Just been my repeated expiriences. Now personal expirience isn't research based. But personal expiriences shape us for good or bad. Some you can break free of, some you can't.
I could like a guy like that IF he isn’t going to act like he is a know it all. Like correct me in whatever I am doing and act like he is smarter then me and all

If the guy is very much intelligent than you , there may be more chances that he will be more right than you , but I don't correct if you are not compleatly wrong. And I don't do that to prove I am better than you , I do that because I care about people around me much. But if you have different opinion on some topic which is right then it's ok
I like guys that at least finished high school with a diploma after that he doesn't have to go to college for me unless he doesn't want me to be smarter than him but I'll like a guy either way as long as im not the smartest in tge relationship

Some people actually like to study , research. Why do you think going to college is not worth it? Not everyone see studies as something to get jobs but actually do like the learning.
I didn't say that. I said that person could as anyone could have a bad personality or just not be my type. Like just caring about your academics doesn't mean you're a good person but it doesn't mean you have a bad one either.
Sooo. If you wanna bring science into this. Smarter guys are less likely to cheat. So bring on the smart guys.

You like science great 😊. But hey I know some of the smarter guys that are Playboy's and they are more successful. Although my primary interest is physics but I have a depth in psychology and if I want to use that for getting girls then it's very easy to manipulate people. But I never did that. But used that for helping people averting suicides or mental problems.
I’m a biology major. Lol. Well I don't know actually. A lot of guys I know, and I’m talking about guys who didn’t have a life because they took the MAX amount of college classes they could and even went in the summer. (I know a guy who did a Bachelors and Masters in 4 years combined) they don’t get to go out and date or anything from the age of 18 to mid 20s. So they usually take one of two routes, they hoe out. Lol. Or when they start dating, they have no experience but they tend to be looking to settle down and are generally more serious.
Yes having a cool life is hard when you are studying. To some people that's life. But I am actually more like second type of guy , don't have much experience in dating. I have completed masters. I am really confused about settling down and hoeing around 🙄🤪.
I think most girls actually prefer that. Only dumb women like stupid cave men.

Last time I fall for that kind of women , 😔. I tried to stay positive that I don’t care about her intelligence but she left with a dumb guy ( not better looking than me if you are thinking that ) . And I never had that much experience in dating.
There are many reasons why a girl might leave a guy - it's about more than just brains or looks. Maybe she gets along better with the other guy? Also which country are you from? English doesn't seem to be your first language.
Yeah, she gets along better with the other guy. English is not my first language. I have made many mistakes in my last comment. Actually, I had noticed it too after posting. But this site can be casual, right?
I like this one guy right now who’s really smart, but he’s hella stuck up about it. Like that’s cool that you’re smart, but no one really cares that much.
Yeah, like he thinks he deserves better than everyone else just because he gets good grades. He looks down on people who aren’t as good as him academically.
People can have other talents apart from academics. But sometimes you know people think you are arrogant if you tell them truth. Let's say one of your friends tells you don't do this , it will cause harm in future. You may think that he is arrogant. But may be he is senseing future , somehow you can't. Sometimes being highly intelligent means you can predict the future by present situation. But if someone's arrogant every time then it's bad
One should not self declare that he is intelligent but I am a physicist and I have eidetic memory. You can deduce yourself. I am actually more soft spoken
If you declare yourself as intelligent by yourself people will think you are arrogant. And for that memory I can remember almost everything , and I have clear memories since age of 3
guys with keen intelligence are a huge turn on for women. JUST AS LONG AS THEY aren't COCKY ABOUT IT. as long as their intelligence is shown very subtle, that is a huge attraction.
I fall for someone like that. Tried to stay positive about it but she lied , mentally abused and left me 😔 for a casual relationship with someone. She was someone who can’t properly add or subtract or believe chemistry is like some magic (I should not tell those , but it’s true ) . I guess Hugh difference in intelligence doesn’t work out. She never liked that I write poetry , helped her in studies even though my subject is different.
What if smart but not nerdy? Like someone who likes comics , games and other stuffs that nerds are into. But not obcessed about them , or doesn't wear glasses. People can be intelligent and not nerdy.
