I suppose I would go with a very smart man as a mate. In regards to other relationships, the intelligence doesn't matter.
I consider myself of average intelligence. I've been fairly successful in my life, but it takes me longer to reach my goals than it would for a very smart person.
My DH is an extremely intelligent man and I think this fact makes me feel protected. My common sense and his type of intellect go together pretty well. Most of my friends and acquaintances are very intelligent, but I have noticed a common factor among them; when they encounter a problem, to them there is only one way to "fix" it, and that would be their way. I believe some of them have blinders on when it comes to solving a problem; they lack the ability to understand the impact their decisions have on others.
To me, a perfect man would be intelligent and able to get his point across without patronizing.
I know exactly what you mean. I have friends who think the same way when it comes to solving a problem. Its either their way or no way. Oh well I love em anyway
