DeltaTango Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 I don't think I'm all too bad looking, I don't think I'm stupid either, in fact I'd say I could hold an interesting, intellectual conversation with almost anyone. However, whenever I meet someone either astoundingly good looking or extremely intelligent I find myself becoming intimidated? I would even go as far as saying I felt inferior. It's starting to get to the point now that if I meet a guy who comes across as smarter than me, I can't be myself and instead give him the cold shoulder because I'm scared he'll think I'm stupid. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm wondering, are these sub conscious self esteem issues that we are yet to come to terms with or will we always feel intimidated?

Rauy Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Just be yourself. Most of the time I notice the normal intimidation, controlled breathing, stiff words and movements but can´t do anything about it. Some of my friends girlfriends still act like this after 2 years. Can´t call you out on it without sounding arrogant. Is there something i could do to relieve the tension? People act irrational around me.Women who are narsissistic and entitled trust their feelings more than logic and tend to act violently to relieve the sexual tension and regain control of their feelings and sexual and/or intellectual dominancy. I´ve been spit on,kicked,slapped on dates and bars even though I did not merit such actions. It´s just a projection. Some just kiss me, compliment my eyes, smile etc. some follow me in the toilet and start to unbutton my shirt. Some tell their deepest secrets. But the explanation afterwards is always the same: "i´ve never done anything like this". I´m not trying to intimidate or win anybody, but sometimes it feels like I am walking on eggshells. Most of the women i meet try to dominate or "win" me. Act girly and giggly, men (and me) have an innate desire to protect and like these girls. You can act like this without men thinking that you are stupid. Relationships are subjective, if you are in for good feelings and harmony, why are you worrying about how intelligent you sound? If you are in for intellectual debate, why are you worried about your feelings? Respect and approval can be earned more ways than one. That is what you want, right?
