Guys would you be intimadated by a multi-talented girl?

[Anonymous]

If your girlfriend or wife was like my cousin would you feel intimidated:
- She owns her own small food shop consisting of desserts, ice-creams and some elaborated dishes. Her plan is for it to become an international restaurant that includes all. It's growing and some people are coming.
- She works part-time as a hotel supervisor but will quit when her business grows. She wants to be her own boss, not work for anyone.
- She took Krav Maga for 3 years. She just enrolled in MMA and Judo.
- She lives by herself and has her own car.
- Great cooker and a freak when it comes to having things cleaned, organized and spotless

Guys would she be too much to handle? Would you be intimidated by her? She's 25 years old and currently single. All she wants is someone faithful and loyal. Like many women she wants marriage and at least one child.

Yes, too much

No, I'll date her

Here's the reality: she can't have it all. She's not going to be able to have that kind of business - and certainly not grow it - and have a child at the same time. Even a marriage is going to be difficult, but a kid? Forget it. She'd never see her kid - it would be raised by daycare/nannies.

Some businesses can be stepped away from and someone else can take over, but the restaurant business is especially difficult, and even some of the best chefs/businesspersons in the world have had restaurants fail, even with plenty of time and attention given to them.

If I was looking for a wife and children, I'd definitely not get involved with her, and in my opinion, the guys here who say they would aren't thinking it through, and would almost certainly end up being divorced. They'd rarely see her, and either there would never be children, or the children would be a "business orphan", which is worse.

Now, if neither person was looking to have kids, that might be a different story. But to believe you can do everything and give it all enough attention is not just naïve, but it's harmful to the children. We all know people who get pets, and then lock them outside and spend 2 minutes a day - if that - spending time with them, and we call that cruel and irresponsible. It's far worse with a child, even if you do have daycare or a nanny to help. Children need their mothers (AND their fathers, but their mothers more, especially when younger).

The martial arts is a bit much for me, from a Christian standpoint; but everything else seems reasonable and not something to be intimidated by, at least not for me. For me the minimum basic requirements for a woman in my life include Christianity, compatibility, faithfulness, loyalty, modesty, and respectfulness.

Intimidated? Not at all. Guys don't generally get intimidated by women like that. The only problem men tend to have with women like your cousin is their personality, attitude and priorities. Sadly women like her often have personality issues and attitudes toward men and relationships that are just unappealing to men.

i don't know how that is supposed to "intimidate" me? like to be intimidated, i must be threattened with a realistic and believable danger to my life, my health or that of a loved one. how does "her having many talents" do any of that?

[MTC29]

She sounds ideal. I love ice cream! I wish I could have found a young woman like this back when I was 30 years old.

[JBlade]

No, she wouldn't be dependent on me and she has her own life outside of me. Sounds like a win. That's exactly what I'm looking for, personally.

[MarshallVoorhees]

You had me at "All she wants is someone faithful and loyal."
I can do that, but she's too young for me.

[Avicenna]

That wouldn't intimidate me. But it's often very talented women like that who think no guy is good enough for them.

[Ironic_Method]

Why would that make someone too much to handle. you're conflating two entirely different sets of traits.

[Asker]

It has happened to her with one guy last month. He got intimidated when he found she was a martial artist too.

[Ironic_Method]

My point is that this is just one instance. And it could be the guy or it could be her personality or any number of reasons rather than what you listed.

[Sam_The_Savage]

Well I support her for chasing her goals...
And than great business partners. And than great sexual partner. Lol. I have those kind of girls around me.

[Jayplays900]

I wouldn't be intimidated, I'd be impressed!

Of course, I'm not multi-talented, so maybe that's why. I'd look to her as an inspiration, but then again, she'd probably not want to date me since I am not very talented.

[joeldalton]

Intimidated? Not at all. But I guarantee I wouldn't be a priority in her life. That's why she's single.

[888theGreat]

You want women with talent

[look44]

I see no problem with her.

[tobr83]

Nope I wouldn’t be intimidated at all

[Anonymous]

No i won't be intimidated by her
