Is it bad that i don't want to date 'dumb' people

Not at all, I actively discriminate based on intelligence / maturity

Completely off topic but in case you didn't realize


Make it a special one....



To answer OP, nah not at all - in some ways intelligence is personality and everyone has different ideas of a perfect personality

Inactive link, such suspense

For a post all about intelligence, it grieves me to see that every 'I' is replaced by an 'i'.

Fml I was readily anticipating the big 50k.

I feel let down. And slightly trolled.

Just because i'm not good with grammar and spelling doesn't mean I'm not intelligent, I'm borderline dyslexic, I've also always put lower-case i's where there should be capitals, it's the internet no-one other than grammer nazi's really care

I want to date genuinely kind hearted people.


That's all I ask for.

I've noticed that as recently that i've only recently wanted to date people who are actually intelligent (I've never had a gf - just putting that out there), now i'm not saying i hate dumb people, i'm just saying that i don't want to date someone who isn't 'smart', i'd like to have a conversation containing more than what the weather is currently like (bit harsh i know, but you get the generic idea)

Does this make me a bad person, note by intelligent i DON'T mean they HAVE to do a STEM subject just smart enough to be able to hold an intellectual conversation on a variety of topics

Sounds what you're just saying is that you essentially want someone with good communication skills, interests that you have and not mentally retarded, I'm just saying.

No. I don't think having preferences when it comes to dating makes you a bad person, you're just being selective which is quite normal in "the dating world".

However some pitfalls of being selective instead of open minded, would be that you might miss out on some great dates.

Besides how would you try to measure someone's intelligence during a date or looking through their profile? would you ask them to do some cognitive tests? ask for their IQ score? or just assume their intelligence based on what knowledge and interests they have?
