I know! I should be ashamed for having respectable standards for myself!

I believe the phrase you used was, "so excruciatingly stupid."

And you've never met girls who were attractive but very dumb? You've never found it painful to make conversation with someone? Look, if you have nothing in common to talk about and have to force it, conversation will be arduous.

I'm not embarrassed to say I want an intelligent person, and just because a person is good-looking isn't going to be enough for more than a one-night romp.

I find it painful to make conversation with most people.

The fact is most people are so incredibly boring but don't realize it.

Yes I've met girls that haven't been attracted to but I'm not out to dog them out for being who they are.

Who's dogging anyone out? I don't go telling people "you're stupid, go away." I am always a very polite person. If it doesn't click, I just say the truth--we don't have much in common, it's just not going to work out.

At any rate, stupidity doesn't just contain itself to mental capacity, it also can mean just plain assholishness. A guy who is somewhat intelligent but then says something, say, racist is going to go into my "stupid" category and be declined a second date.

See I gotta go with Boris on this one. I spent many many years dating the pretty boys. I have or had a strong effinity to pretty boys with long hair, it was just my thing. Didn't matter if they were smart or not just as long as they looked good. Shallow yes I know. As I said this was a while back.

Then a few years ago I was working somewhere and met a guy. The inital attraction was there because he was good looking and had long hair but the kicker was that he was astoundingly intelligent. It was very strange but I found his intellect and wit more attractive and acting like more of an afrodesiac then his looks every could have been. I was attracted to his brain I found since that incounter that a person's intelligence holds more for me then any amount of looks ever could.

Beauty fades and when you are sitting on that front porch and gravity has taken it's hold and the hair and teeth are gone......you'd better have a brain under that pretty face or you are gonna be bored out of your mind and praying for death to realease you from the madness

This is deliciously ironic.

I don't see why?
I'm the first to admit I'm perhaps one of the most boring people on the planet.

I reckon that they are called "airheads."

Yes, painful will be the apt description to use.

am I the only one who doesn't make intelligence a deciding factor in my freindships (nor would I in my relationships?)

there are a lot of great people out there who don't have IQs of 160+

and they have a lot to offer

We've all been there. We've all I'm sure met someone and after a while of talking to them we were looking for the nearest window to jump out of or a hammer to knock ourselfs in the head with...anything to get away.

I think your missing the point. That is one of the factors. If you go after someone or go out with them are there not certain things you look for in them. I think Boris was just stating several things that he looks for in a mate s/o and several things he wasn't.

I don't think anyone goes out on purpose and says.....hmmmmm I think I date a druggie idot today. Just doesn't happen like that.
