CARL45 Posted May 21, 2010 Posted May 21, 2010 I have meet this girl we get along great and been dating her for a while everything great except one problem I'm jealous. Not because of a another man,but because of her intelligence. She has quite a lot of accomplishments and awards excelled in school and etc. I have none of those things and I am barely doing good in school and have no job. I hate having to admit that I am jealous,but I finally figured out what it is and I decided I needed to talk about it. I just need some guidance.
Yo-Yo Posted May 21, 2010 Posted May 21, 2010 Bro, that's not jealousy...That's just insecurity. And don't worry about it, because we ALL have it (those who say they don't are bull$hitting you and themselves)... If the girl is hypersmart, and she still wants to be with you, then rest easy knowing that smart girls know you're awesome. I have to get over my feelings of sadness when stupid ones reject me, so if anything, *I'm* jealous of *you* !! If you wanna rise to the level of intelligent conversation, read the newspaper (not a crappy one, the NY times or something) or maybe get a good book by a classic writer....Read it, dig it, and then converse about it. You couldn't be all that much below her intellectually, so just get hip on some current events and some classic authors, and you'll be in like Flynn... But don't be insecure....You'll drive her away if you seem intimidated, so just think about that she's your girl because she LIKES you! Feel good!!!
Ruby Slippers Posted May 21, 2010 Posted May 21, 2010 (edited) If she is still dating you, she doesn't think you're dumb. She might be smarter than you, but I'm sure you're better than her at some other things. My last boyfriend was a super hottie, but he admitted to me that he was concerned he wasn't "nerdy" enough for me. I thought he was plenty smart, and I loved that he had street smarts. He really helped wise naive little me up in a lot of ways, and I was always grateful for that. Enjoy the fact that your girl's got brains, and use this as inspiration to kick butt yourself.

marsle85 Posted May 21, 2010 Posted May 21, 2010 There's no excuse why you're not just as successful. Become more involved, study harder, become a greater catch. Not only will she be totally turned on by your intelligence and dedication, you will feel better about yourself and emit more confidence.
