Apologies about the double post. To continue, smart men are more concerned with a woman's intelligence, they don't really care about actual achievement. If they have achieved, fine. If they have'nt, that's fine too. Ultimately, men know what they like and they are the last judges. A woman may think she is the best thing since sliced bread, but if an intelligent discerning man does'nt, then whatever criteria she has applied to herself is of little relevance in the dating game.

Intelligent ball busters are of no use to men. Smart men like intelligent, congenial women. Women out to prove something or who feel the need to boast or gloat, are a real turn off. If you are successful, wear it naturally, don't blow your own trumpet. This is unattractive in men and women.
