    Do guys like smart girls?
    I was just wondering if guys like smart girls.
    I mostly get straight A's and am very proud of my marks.
    But I heard that some guys don't like smart girls. And that seems weird to me.
    It would be nice to hear from a few guys about this.

    Me personally after trying around and some hit and miss I prefer a smart woman. Not only do I know a well educated girl is more likely not to make stupid choices but I can actually have a conversation. Guys that don't like smart girls want dumb ones because they are much easier to take advantage of.

    At least in the area I live in, guys tend to date smarter girls. Yes, with good looks, but not the ditzy "like oh em gee" kind of girls. Smarter girls have a lot more going for them then the less smart girls.

    I have always dated smart girls. I couldn't stand the 'ditzy' ones that were superficial. I ended up marrying a lawyer (but not because she is a lawyer mind you).

    I've learned, from my experiences, that I can no longer date girls who when asked what their favorite book was, would respond, "Clifford the Big Red Dog."

    Am I looking to just have fun? Then, I couldn't care less, as long as the person is nice and overall has a good personality.

    Am I looking for a girlfriend? That girl better have gone to a college that doesn't involve the word, "community"

    This question is another one of those questions we get here that sounds like it should have an answer... but doesn't. Not really.

    Do guys like blonds?
    Yes... and no... and sometimes... and never... and always...

    Are guys faithful?

    Yes... and no... and sometimes... and never... and always...

    Does he love me?

    Yes... and no... and sometimes... and never... and always...

    Do guys like smart girls?

    Yes... and no... and sometimes... and never... and always...

    What you need to keep in mind, duzemonkey, is that trying to understand other people's motivations in a global way won't work at all, on ANY topic.

    Trying to analyze individual guys might be possible, but it's also not very important. It's not necessary.

    A dumb guy, a smart guy, a jock, a nerd, a bohemian...any one of those boys could make an awesome/excellent boyfriend if they respect you and admire you and make your life more enjoyable when they're around you.

    A dumb guy, a smart guy, a jock, a nerd, a bohemian...any one of those boys could make a horrible boyfriend if they put themselves and their like/dislikes over yours and put you down.

    And most importantly of all, YOU can be a good or bad girlfriend to any one of them, too. YouR being smart could become a way for you to accidentally put down the boys you date, or even on purpose if you're angry about something. Remember that.

    Being a good girlfriend is about taking an interest in someone and encouraging them in who they are. It's not really about finding someone as smart as you or dumber or anything in particular. It's about finding someone who makes you proud of yourself when you see yourself through your eyes... and also about someone you can make proud of themselves when they see themselves through your eyes.

    Don't fret your smarts. That's there to help you get things done. It'll only be an issue with guys you shouldn't date anyway, or in your own head.

    I'm a 6 foot stoner from California with an average gpa of 1.0. I have an A's in botany and horticulture, but that's probably only because my teacher lets me use my plants for experiments. Stoners don't have a whole lot of options when it comes to girls. Most of my buddies are dating sluts, but I'm not really into the whole herpes thing. I have a thing for smart girls who read big books. And that brings me to my next point...
    What are smart girls in to?

    Smart girls are more intimidating then the ditzy ones. BUT, that doesn't mean us guys don't like you smart girls. Personally, I love it. We can do homework together without me having to teach the girlfriend, and smart girls don't ask stupid questions.

    A lot of guys go for the stupid ones for the sex, as many have pointed out here before. If those are the guys you look at as potential boyfriends, forget them. Look for guys that date respectible girls.

    Guys that like smart girls are definitely fewer than guys that will go for the dumb-blonde, especailly in the teenage years. But, they are out there!

    ... I feel that smart girls aren't really too into guys that could potentially end up with a drug charge.

    Smart girls are much more intriguing than females that sit around and fiddle with their make up all day if you ask me.

    Be yourself!
    I find people spend the first ten years of their lives living simply as they are,
    The next ten trying to hide it,
    And the rest trying to figure out what they knew when they were ten!

    Re: "Am I looking for a girlfriend? That girl better have gone to a college that doesn't involve the word, "community"."

    Your loss.

    The topic is intelligence, not financial means.

    Although there are plenty of people smarter than I am, this is not due to the word community in my undergraduate college. I scored in the 96th percentile of the MCAT with only a community college education supplemented with self-study. I opted out of a bachelor's degree program. I am currently in my third year of medical school and doing quite well.

    In my home state a community college offers classes at one tenth the price of four year state universities. The vast majority of students pursue their first years at a community college to circumvent some of the debt involved in pursuing education.

    The way I see it, it is not dumb to spend less money.
